This place... is special. I just had a fantastic meal and got a chance to chat with one of the partners and someone else working there. I wish I got their names, because they made me feel like I knew them forever and they were just wonderful. anyone should make it a point to head down there, try whatever they recommend, and have a chat!

Loved our experience, can’t wait to go back! Wait and bar staff were so friendly and fun, bartender walked over to our table to offer drinks and mixed up a cocktail for us upon request. The food was all excellent - we had the Vincenzo (chicken cutlet fried to perfection), penne vodka, and the eggplant panini. Server gave us parting gifts of drink tokens and a little free dessert. You don’t get service like this most places these days. A delight!

Attempted to order one of each aracini and a martini. Cook came out, and I paid over 30 dollars for the worst martini and old rice cakes. Not worth the walk even when I'm tired.

Our department uses Paninoteca frequently for catered lunches. The food is always fresh and delicious. Everyone asks where the food is from. Always a big crowd pleaser. There are plenty of vegetarian options. The portions of the catering menu cannot be beat. The delivery always arrives earlier than schedule so we never worry about people not getting lunch. Defiantly our go-to for catering!
The new spot is fantastic. Always a delicious meal and great staff.

We were in Rochester for the weekend for The Strong museum and we just needed food so we decided to dine at paninoteca. The homemade meatballs with the cheese sauce was really delicious. The cheese sauce went surprisingly well with the gigantic meatballs. We enjoyed the food and experience here. The staff were extremely nice and made us feel very welcome!

I had Tyler cater a massive Bill's party for the home opener last Sunday and it couldn't have gone any better! i had friends at the house from Rochester, Syracuse and family in from Buffalo. Everyone could not believe how good the food was and many people asked multiple times where the food was from! we had Chicken French, Roast Beef sliders, Mac and Cheese and roasted potatoes. Friends from Buffalo had never had Chicken French before but were blown away by how good it was. on top of everything that Tyler helped with he went over the top the next day and worked with me to get the extra food to the Open Door Mission in Rochester where i was told we were likely going to feed over 100 homeless people and give back! this man and his food are amazing!!! Please take a trip and tell him you "heard about how great the Bills opener was"! he has a lifelong customers in me and my friends/family!!! thanks Ty

Casual dress, great food, shout out to Joe understanding the art of a dining experience. From the moment you walk in until you leave you will say. " why didn't I try this sooner " oh and the espresso martini is a must...go and have fun, I know I did !!!!
We stumbled upon the new location today and were so excited to have our favorite panini for the first time since we moved to the other side of town. The new place is beautifully updated. The service was excellent and the food was on point. I can’t recommend this place enough!
