Panini & Co Breads

Pretty good. I had the chicken fajita wrap. It was really tasty. Hubby had chicken Parmesan Panini which I thought was pretty bland. Restaurant isn’t much to look at. Very New Yorkish.

They forgot to make my entrée after bringing my fries very late. Gross fries, omelette was subpar, my mom’s fried wrap was disgusting as well.

I have tried coming here 3 times but I am officially done. The first time was decent and without issue, although I had to wait 15 mins for my order. The second time I came for breakfast before work. Just a regular egg sandwich. After 20 mins of waiting & having to get to work, they had my order. But not before asking 2 times how much longer and then asking for a refund since it was taking so long.
Decided to try one more time today because it was freezing out & I didn’t want to travel far. Waited 20 minutes again, even people who ordered after me were already sitting down & eating. Simple order, grilled chicken, cheese & honey mustard. I get to my office, & it looks like there’s no cheese. If they put any on, it looked like half a slice of American. (I asked for Muenster). I called, and the guy apologized & delivered a replacement. The replacement is okay but somewhat dry. There’s a lot less honey mustard on this one than the 1^st. However I’m not about to call a 2^nd time as I have now wasted my entire lunch hour waiting on a just edible sandwich. Not worth the headache.

This place sucks! Food has no taste, the fountain drinks has no flavor, the place is dirty and overall this place is no near Italian food!!! This place is ruining the Italian reputations!

I used to enjoy the Chicken Parmesan Panini some time ago, but I think they removed it from the menu. I hadn’t been in for quite some time and ordered a grilled chicken sandwich on foccacia bread and a bottle of soda. $ 14.00! Yikes. The sandwich was okay (a little dry), but not worth nearly $ 10.00 price tag and a $ 3.00 bottle of soda. I won’t be back again.

Great breakfast, friendly staff and big portions. Highly recommend… I don’t get why Unilocal want me to write a book

I spent 14 dollars on a salad and it was sub par. I couldn’t believe that a coffee and a salad would cost me an arm and a leg. Working downtown has led me to realize that I would be paying more for lunch. However I expected restaurant style quality. Instead I got rude service from the cashier who was so bothered by my asking of the breakdown of price. I’m sorry for causing you a disservice but it’s sort of your job.

We were hungry after sightseeing and so we just stopped in here because it was the first place we saw and it was a bad decision. The place is a market/​restaurant/​café? The menu is confusing, breakfast is listed in one section and then lunch is on the board, so it was weird.
We wanted pastries so we got some croissants and cannolis and it sucked. They were stale, not fresh and have been sitting out all day. The smoothie they made me was good but that was the extent of that. We spent nearly $ 45 on stale food, so frustrating.

Very disappointed about this place. It’s definitely not worth it.
It was late when I went and I wanted something quick and cheap… I failed.
For a burger, fries and medium drink, I paid $ 16!
And the burger wasn’t very good (Ok, but not worth $ 12.50!). And not a lot of fries…
I was the only client, and I waited about 15min.
If you are visiting or if you just need something to eat, for the same price, you can have waaay better around.
I won’t go again.
One good point though: the guy was nice, and the floor seems clean

This place was not our 1^st choice, but any place is better than Burger King in the Finacial district. The music is far too loud and really not our style at all. The staff was very slow, and they knew they were slow. There is ample seating and for the most part it’s clean. The food was highly over priced for the quality $ 17 for 2 breakfast sandwiches and one coffee, really? As I said though we had time to burn and there was ample seating. That’s as good as it gets.

We were waiting at another place around the corner that was recommend by a cop on the street. After 30+ minutes waiting some construction guy try to get in also. They left and headed here so we followed. The place is nice inside with wood walls with tile accents. We ordered the bagel with cream cheese and lox. A true New Yorker staple and the wife’s favourite in the city. I went with the simple ham, egg, an cheese on a roll. It was good nice warm and very tasty. The wife loved the lox. In all the construction guy did well. I should know I’m one of those construction guys too.

This place is bad, we were hungry and gave t a try for breakfast. My husbands breakfast: eggs were raw, bacon not even close to be well done, even though he asked. My plate was not amazing either. The radio or tv was really laud. It was also summer and they had no a/​c in there, we ate quickly and run out. On top of that, it was pretty expensive. Worst place we ate in NY.

Either walk in and grab a drink and a snack for on the go or sit down in the large seating area and watch the hustle and bustle of New York life pass by through the large glass windows which cover the entirety of the front and side of this establishment.
As per the name, lots of bread based sandwiches and lunch type eats can be found here. The menu is huge so you can pick what you want from that, or alternatively you can personalise your sandwich so it suits your tastes.
There is also a salad bar for those who are in need of some of their five a day.
N/​b Only customers are allowed use of the restroom facilities. Entrance can only be obtained using a key which the service staff are happy to provide.

The food is overpriced for its quality, the music plays too loud and, the customer service is absolutely horrible. Plus, they don’t accept American Express!

It was full of people but in 5 minuts I get my veggi wrap and it was really tasy, and the guy that took my order was nice and helpful. The only thing is there’s only one bathroom for men and women so I had to wait a little to get in.
I totally recomend it if you are in the area and want fast and good food!

I seriously should have heeded the two star warning… Place is ridiculous!
First off place has just about the weirdest set up I’ve seen for a restaurant. Second… Certainly not the cleanest I’ve seen. For what appeared to be a really slow afternoon for them the garbage can was overflowing, and the dirty dishes and trays hadn’t been removed from the garbage area. The floors were nasty and so was the counters.
I however overlooked all that because the «showcase» of food they had looked amazing! They had those type of deli cooler counters with food they made then sprayed with plastic to preserve it (or whatever the process is) just for show.
You’ll see in my picture… What they had in the display cases was not even close to what I got.
Now all I got was a roast beef panini. Which the way it read on the menu was basically a panini Reuben. I also ordered a side of fries because apparently here you eat just a sandwich… And I got a bottled drink (non alcoholic)
Now I specified «non alcoholic» up there because for those three items I paid $ 19…
I repeat $ 19
Not a lot you say??? Review my pictures and tell me if YOU would pay that amount for what I got!
As for what I got…:
I got a panini that had literally 2 THIN slices of roast beef, A slice of cheese and the thinnest saddest excuse of a layer of Russian dressing you can imagine. The French fries where totally frozen. And the bottled drink was great! Never again. Ripped off my wallet and left feeling hungry and dirty

OMG I’ve been waiting for my veggie omelette sandwich for over an hour now and I’m only a ten minute walk away according to google maps. My stomach is crying out in hunger!!!
Ok…I just finished eating my sandwich like a savage and I must say it wasn’t bad. IT tasted pretty good.
I recommend skipping on the delivery though if you want to eat soon!

OK facts first. I ate breakfast here at around 8 or 9 am, I’ve been here a long time, till 5:30 PM. I know that is pretty long. I’ve used their wifi, power, bathrooms. Here is what I’ve given back. 30 $ in food and drinks in that time period, nothing but respect to employees and restaurant.
Now, 5:30 pm, there is practically no one here. Big guy behind the counter with the hat and apron pretty rudely asked when I’m leaving. I said pretty soon, he reminded me again, I was here a long time, yes, you already said that big guy.
Another thing, only at around 12, did the big girl behind the counter start giving me stares. Look you big bitch, I didn’t do anything to you, paid your restaurant money, gave you tips, cleaned your fucking bathroom to go above and behind as a customer, I do not need your fat eyes giving me that look.
Don’t know if big guy was manager or owner, I doubt it, I’m sure the owner has got better things to do on a Sunday than hang with these loser employees. I see that this place has a bad rap for the food, I actually liked my omelet. Most the employees were great, I really only had a bad experience with those two giant people behind the register, and the big guy asked me that while I was buying a 6 $ beer, Corona to be exact.
When are these dumb ass employees going to learn that in the time of the internet, the guy with the laptop can easily write a review if you do great or do bad, so, remember big guy, I’m right, your wrong.

I gave this place a solid 4 tries and every time I left frustrated, still hungry and wishing I never came.
Service: For breakfast, you can stand at the counter to order and there are a ton of people behind the counter, they will ignore you. I’m not shy, so I’ll say «excuse me,» still nothing. There’s one guy who will take your order, who is probably the only decent person who works there.
Food: ALWAYS wrong. I have a ton of allergies so its super important that they get the order right. They just don’t care. They reuse utensils without wiping them off and in one way or another get random bits into your food – even when you specify that you can’t have certain items.
Ambiance: It’s not laid out well, so everyone is unsure of where to go. Lines snake around, so people are cutting or you can’t get to where you want to go.
On top of all this, the food is solidly 30% more expensive than anything else around. And if you somehow manage to walk out of there without spending more than $ 10, you can’t use a credit card – which seems a little high (isn’t $ 5 minimum normal?).
If you’re looking to wade through throngs of obnoxious tourists, deal with a staff that is hell bent on killing you (via allergies or a stress induced aneurysm), and paying $ 18+ for lunch, then this is the spot for you!

Sad is all I can say about this place. It was either this or spend $ 20 at the hotel for breakfast. Settled on Panini & Co and had a chicken sandwich. This is a tourist trap for people that have no other choice but to eat here because it’s convenient.
The sandwich came with a few chips. The size of it was on the smaller side and I was hungry not too long after. I scarfed down the sandwich in a quick few bites and it makes the Subway 6″ sub look like a rockstar. That’s how tiny it was.
This is what I get for not throughly researching places on Unilocal before I go. Yeah make fun of me all you want but this is strike two. Next time I’m getting tarred and feathered.
