Wow. What a place. Clean. Well lit. Excellent service. And the food. Mamamia. Had the ginger salad. I know I know. You're at a Panini Place. Luckily my friend had one and all that wasn't was the plate. Best ginger salad I've had in my life. Gotta come back here.

Eaten here numerous times and we know we are in for a great meal and friendly inattentive service. Guess that's a unique way describing the waitstaff's performance. And that's the rub of what otherwise would be a fantastic dining experience...whether it's brunch, lunch or dinner you can count on the service by the waitstaff to be lacking. They are very friendly so it's kind of hard to be mad at their lousy service. However, it's the food that keeps us coming back. Their crepes are to die for. Salads are great as are their panni's, but it's the crepes that keeps us coming back. Absolutely delicious and a generous size to boot. Usually wind up taking a portion home with us. Everything we've ever ordered is presented nicely and is cooked just right. The dining area is intimate (which is good since you don't have far to go to track down waitstaff...there we go again with the crappy service). Never been disappointed with any of the meals and it is amazingly inexpensive given the portion sizes. Deserts are really good, especially the chocolate mouse and cannoli's. Here's a tip for the waitstaff or owner if you read this. Don't have conversations with your back turned to the dining area. Face the dining area and read the room. Last time we were there our server never came by to ask how the meal was and two tables next to us had to get up to find their server for their check. Sigh, so close to being perfect.

Came back to my hometown to watch the NY GIANTS GAME, stopped at this adorable place to have breakfast. Their cappuccino is absolutely delicious and presentation on spot! Olivia gave me a warm welcome! Her smile ? says it all. Such a lovely girl and great service! I had the lemon crepe & my husband had the W5 OMG that was an amazing tasting wrap! Definitely coming back when I revisit!!!!

I came here with my cousins and we were not only impressed with the service and food, but the prices were very affordable. The coffee looked very light but did not taste light. Had a good ratio of coffee and cream. 2 of us got sweet crepes, and the fruit was very fresh and overall very delicious. 1 of us got a panini with bologna and goat cheese. It was also very tasty and the portion size was great. The truffle fries were very crispy, hot, and seasoned perfectly. The atmosphere is chill and family friendly. Overall the price was $60 for everything we got, which was pleasantly surprising considering how much we ordered. Definitely will go back as much as I can.
I enjoyed my lunch here. There is quite a wide selection of sandwiches and the ingredients were high quality. I found the portion size to be gargantuan, so I was able to take half my sandwich home for another day. The waitstaff initially forgot to bring me lemon I requested for my water. Other than that, it was a perfect experience.

This is now my third time here for lunch. We were a group of 3. Both times we agreed that the food tasted very good, and we had good service. . That being said, fast forward 4 months to today, and our luncheon experience was a total massive letdown. Arrived before 1 pm, and the restaurant was under no circumstances busy. We placed our order with the waitress around 12:50. FF, and it’s now 1:25. It consisted of 1 panini. 1 wrap, a side of fries, one dessert and 3 beverages. After the long wait, it appeared to us that the waitress may have forgotten or probably forgot to place the order, and as a result, we needed to wait even longer before we received our lunch. It seems pretty obvious the restaurant has an inattentive and inept staff. Incidentally, a homeless man entered the restaurant during our wait time, who visited our table along with several tables asking patrons for money… no need to elaborate. You get the picture. After wasting so much time waiting for our food, and eating so quickly, we needed to leave before 2 pm, therefore rushing us to pay the check at the register and go. Forgot to tell the waitress that I wanted to take home my untouched other half of my panini that I left behind which really pissed me off. This had to be by far, one of my WORST, dining experiences I’ve had in quite some time. The management quickly needs to address the ineptitude and inexperience of the staff. I can guarantee you that I have no intention of returning to this restaurant and intend to also post more reviews on other sites regarding this unpleasant experience. (That’s correct, ZERO stars for service, even though it truly deserves MINUS 5 stars.)
Variety of food cannot be rivaled in a neighborhood of very high quality dining. Lots of helpful staff members who are very eager to help you decide from the incredible selection of sandwiches, salads, pastries and pastas. The menu is incredibly diverse and has daily changes to make sure that your eating experienced is varied as well as satisfying. You can come here every day and have something different but never different in quality. I don't know how they keep coming up with delicious choices but I'm happy to sample each dish.
We arrived at 10 am. We were greeted immediately by a young girl, can not remember her name but starts w a J. Very sweet to us all. Our server was Antoinette, lovely from beginning to end. Patient and professional. The food was absolutely delicious. 5*****. We will definitely come again.

I do like this place a lot. I really do, but the inside of the paninis are always cold. This may not be an issue with meat options, but the vegetarian paninis are always cold. I have to melt the cheese on my paninis before I can eat them. I was torn with my rating. When the paninis are heated up they’re 5 stars, but they’re always cold. Alas. I need to give 4 stars because this is a frequent issue.
