Delicious food, made to order food including soup, sandwiches, and salads. Beautiful presentation, and wonderful staff. They offer gluten and dairy free accommodations to their meals very well, including bringing out the ingredient list for true allergen concerns. What makes this review even stronger, is that due to being a busy parent, I forgot my work computer that I was quickly answering a few messages on call when I was distracted leaving. We were on a road trip going through multiple states and I called after closing hours later. They picked right up and Casey arranged for us to pick up the computer (in the evening on a day it's closed!) on our way home. I am forever grateful for the staff of Panini Panini to make a an already stressful situation so easily resolved. read more

I love a local spot, and this one didn't disappoint. Clean and timeless diner vibes, friendly staff, specials, and great flavors and portions. The soup of the day, Chicken Parmesan was the star of my order, honestly. The freshest tomato with the perfect blend of spices and perfectly cooked chicken under the gooiest layer of cheese! As a bonus, apparently a perfect spot to watch the local 4th of July Parade too! read more

Food is excellent, and you can tell they use fresh ingredients and everything is made to order. It did take a bit for our food to come out, despite the business being pretty slow. Service was friendly, and the space itself has a cozy coffee house vibe. It's tucked into a shopping center and can be a little tough to find, but they do have their own parking lot on the side of the building. All in all a pretty good experience...that said, the prices were very expensive for what we got - two breakfast sandwiches and two iced coffees ran us just about $50. read more

Delicious! Delicious! I ordered the tuna salad panini and it was huge! And hugely delicious. It also came with a tasty green salad (no iceberg here!) and a couple slices of fresh cantaloupe. I could only eat half the sandwich but I can attest that the other half was nearly as delicious for lunch the next day. I had also ordered a slice of the lemon tart, which the wrapped and pro-actively kept refrigerated for me. I sat on their outdoor patio, which was really nice, despite the day's heat, with flowers, greens, a Buddha and Ganesh statues. The service was tremendous--they even brought a bowl of water for my dog. read more

The lazy ceiling fans, the piano jazz quartet music just over the hum of the kitchen fans, the handwritten menus and specials boards, textured walls and ceiling and the character of impressionist art, the Euro-American cuisine, the delightful surprise dessert case, you would be forgiven for thinking you walked out of Michigan City into a 50-year old neighborhood classic favorite in Boston or New York City. Rich in character, Wonderful food (the Cubano were delicious, and my wife loved her chicken pest and French onion soup , friendly and reasonably fast service, great as a family or lunch spot (we visited with our 2, 3.5, and 5yo). Recommended by our Airbnb host and we pass it on to you. read more

What a divine little spot in Michigan City. Waze took us through some questionable neighborhood roads and we started to question if we were going the right way, but sure enough we found Panini Panini. It's a gem hidden in the community. I got the gluten free turkey club. It was delicious. The gluten free bread tasted like the real stuff - impeccable! Love their garlic sauce on the sandwich. Husband got a Ham and Swiss but subbed for cheddar. He also loved his sandwich. He said the crunchy bread was great. We both got Great Lakes kettle chips and Jones soda as well! I loved their homemade grape vinegarette! It paired perfectly with the side salad that as fresh shaved parm, tomato, and cucumber, and red onions. I could have had that as my whole meal. All together I think the meal was around $40 with the brownie. We loved it and the quality was definitely there. Would love to go back if we're ever in the area. Seems like it is well known by people in the area as there was a steady stream of people. Staff was also super nice! Check it out! read more

This place is phenomenal! The food is so good, I'm not sure where to begin! The very first sandwich that I ever had here was the BLT . I now order it with onions. So delicious! They throw in this salad which has fresh and buttery lettuce . Good stuff! I also recommend: The Pot Roast sandwich with carmelized onions . Yessir! The Grilled Cheese is also good. Get the multiple cheese option. You will Thank Me! Once again, I have to have onions in my sandwich. When I get the Grilled Cheese, I also have a get the Tomato Bisque . Folks, you will sell your Momma to The Huns for this soup! Try me and see! They also make a good Croque Madame, Breakfast BLT, and Linguini (shrimp, scallops, or lobster , you can't go wrong! ) Lastly, they make a great brownie as well as an amazing Lemon Tart. If you try that Lemon Tart, you will be back! This is one of my favorite spots in Michigan City . Check it out! read more

Loved the food, and big props to Thomas, I came in yesterday and had to return today after his outstanding service and cooking. He once again accommodated my allergies perfectly and even surprised me with two slices of cantaloupe that I thoroughly enjoyed. read more

Ordered the mushroom truffle pasta and it was so comforting. The sauce was creamy with a rich earthy flavor from the mushrooms and truffle. I loved that the pasta itself was fresh and had a nice texture. There was a good amount of sauce without it being overly heavy. Our server was kind and gave us great wine suggestions to pair with it. The restaurant had a cozy atmosphere with warm lighting and soft background music. I'd definitely come back just for this dish. read more

We first discovered Panini Panini after apple picking last fall, when my oldest daughter (whose nickname happens to be Panini), said she was really in the mood for a tuna sandwich. We loved it so much that we made it a tradition! The food is excellent and the service is even better. When my daughter wanted to order the tuna but was hesitant about whether she'd like the relish, the staff brought her a little portion to taste. Don't miss it! read more

I make sure to stop by Panini Panini anytime I'm in town. I have recommended this place to anyone who will listen. I am not a Reuben girl, but I enjoyed theirs.

The service is always very good, the workers are very nice and they have great recommendations. It's so cozy in there, that even the pickiest eater will find something they like and feel right at home. read more

The owner was very friendly and welcoming. She was very accomodating and described all the different soups, salads , and san dwiches to us. The prices were reasonable. I got the combo: 1/2 sandwich, cup of soup, tossed salad with homemade raspberry vinegrette dressing 2 pcs of crusty french bread and 2 thin slices of cantaloupe. The soup was steak and potato with a lot of meat and my 1/2 sandwich was the reuben. It was all delicious. And all of that for $10!! As we were leaving she gave us each 2 homemade macaroons to go. What a wonderful restaurant. Can hardly wait to go back. read more
