Pantano's Deli Plainview - Sunrise Salad @ Pantano's Deli - Italian Near Me - Plainview, New York

I ordered a sandwich and a platter today. I called 10 minutes ahead, but once I arrived at the store, I still had to wait an extra 20 minutes. To make matters worse, three other customers who arrived after me received their food before I did. The food tasted delicious, though! If it wasn't for the long and disorganized wait, this definitely would have been a 5-star review. Pedí un sándwich y un plato (platter). Llamé con 10 minutos de anticipación, pero una vez que llegué al local, tuve que esperar 20 minutos adicionales. Para colmo, otros tres clientes que llegaron después de mí recibieron su comida antes que yo. Sin embargo, ¡la comida estuvo deliciosa! Si no hubiera sido por la larga y desorganizada espera, definitivamente habrían sido 5 estrellas. read more

We always order waffles with fresh fruit and while the taste is very good , the paper plates and tins are a turnoff when eating inside. Also they are not so willing to refill large coffee cups. Seating is just adequate.would give 3 stars. read more

I came here for a quick lunch. I ordered the Francisco Panini. The place is clean. The menu is large but not exactly the healthiest. I wish I prefers ahead because the wait was forever and the place wasn't packed. It was nice they the panini came with a side salad. I ordered the pesto pasta salad. There is a place to eat and they also do to go. I took mine to go. The panini was good but I actually would prefer it without the vodka sauce. Was slightly too rich. I would go back and try other things. read more

Food was just ok nothing special, and I get that it's just a deli but when your paying these prices there are better options. I would not go back just for the fact that it was not the best food . I ordered the Ruben and a Diet Coke and it was over $20 just not worth it read more

Pantano's is my go to restaurant for delicious, fresh, homemade sandwiches and salads. Their food tastes just as good as it looks and their homemade Caesar salad dressing is my all time favorite! (They should bottle and sell it!!!) Their staff are professional and kind. 5 stars across the board! read more

Pantano's Deli Plainview - Italian Near Me - Plainview, New York

Pantano's has limited indoor seating and operates more like a deli where you can grab and go. It takes 10-15 minutes for them to take and to make your order. They have breakfast items, wraps, heroes, salads, etc. and offer a discount if you pay cash. I ordered the Mezz and was glad I took it home because it was a bit messy to eat with the Italian dressing. They are a little bit on the pricier side so expect to spend $13-$15 for a meal here. read more

BEST SPOT IN LONG ISLAND. if you're looking for authentic taste, reasonable prices, and an unreal experience stop by this spot. I ordered the Francisco but everything looked good. and i mean EVERYTHING. It was tough to decide. They have so many different antipastos, salads, sandwiches, desserts...something for everyone. Staff is top notch and the owner even prepared my wrap for me! So much TLC. I'll most definitely be back because my wrap made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. the best of the best! read more

If you need to grab & go some grub in the area, Pantano's offers quick service & yummy eats. I ordered 4 platters for my friends & I to munch on for breakfast. I made a quick trip to ShopRite while waiting & my food was ready to go by the time I got back. I drove a short distance to my friend's place & we enjoyed our breakfast, which was still warm & delicious. If you need a bang for your buck, Pantano's is where to go to get a quick, fulfilling meal for breakfast or lunch! read more

Always consistent amazing food friendly staff you can never go wrong with food from Pantano's

It kills me to write this ... I've been coming to Pantano's for years, and for a while it was my main spot for food. However, the quality of this place has really taken a dive. The price was always pricey but I continued to come here because I loved the sandwiches and the portions . Today was my very last straw as I ordered 4 sandwiches ( 1 egg and cheese, 1 egg white wrap with turkey and cheese , one turkey ( maple honey turkey ) and one Turkey sandwich with bacon and egg,) my total was $50 . A bit expensive but like I mentioned as long as it's a good portion I didn't mind. When I got home I was so disappointed, my wife's egg sandwich had one slice of turkey , and my son's Turkey sandwich and mine had so little turkey and shredded into bits. when I called because I was curious on the portion size, I was told that they give 1/3 pound per turkey sandwich when I received was much less than that. 1/3 lbs should equal to roughly 5ounces , for reference, I received closer to 2 ounces on each sandwich. I was starving otherwise I would have brought this back, my wife was the only one who took a picture which I will share. It's sad because I understand times are rough but when I feel scammed or disappointed to the point I needed to share this. I simply won't be coming back here and I hope this helps the business more than shy others from here, because the responsibility to your guest and keeping them happy is why you cook food. Cooking for others is a privilege not a forced habit read more

You can tell they've been around for a long time and are active in the Plainview community. I've only been there a few times for a bacon egg and cheese sandwich and it was great. Service was quick and the guys at the counter were friendly. Just didn't know why they don't cut the sandwiches in half! lol read more

Pantanos is deeeeliciousss! So much variety to choose from and breakfast served all day is a must-have!!! They will make anything you want with a super-friendly staff! One of the best delis I have been to! read more

Great friendly people behind the counter. Lots of choices. Fresh tasty food, and quick service. I was very pleased. Highly recommended. I will be back. read more

From the outside it does not look like much, but what awaits through those doors is definitely a pleasant surprise. They have a great selection so if you are dealing with a large party or have a few picky eaters (or a large group of picky eaters), this place is a good option. Be advised that it is not the cheapest place, but it is not horrifically overpriced and like the old adage goes, you do get what you pay for. The Pantano Special, the Heart Attack and the Spicy Melissa are all solid choices and you won't be disappointed with whichever of these you go with. The staff is pretty friendly and makes you feel welcome. All in all, Pantano's Eatery is a solid choice to head towards for a meal. Good food and good service will make you happy that you chose this establishment. I will give it five stars. read more

Upon recommendation, I made the trip to finally try a signature wrap from Pantano's and it didn't disappoint. I'm a big fan of "throw it all in there" sandwiches and what I had (The Gabby) was not only packed, but clearly designed with intention. Everything meshed perfectly! They even have a separate section of their menu specifically for "Instagram Favorites" and it honestly all sounded so good. My Gabby wrap lasted two meals though so I'll have to make another trip out there to try more soon. Also, it's located in a strip mall / plaza so finding parking is super easy. Shoutout to the worker that day who suggested The Gabby when I asked! read more

I ordered three things and didn't like anything I got. The roast beef sandwich was sooo dry. It barely had any thousand island dressing. But I didn't understand why my roast beef sandwich was hot and had dry flat steak pieces like a Philly cheesesteak. If was at least moist and tasty steak meat I could've over looked this mistake. Weird cuz I ordered their roast beef and the guy taking my order confirmed it. I would hesitate to come back here. Sad bc it seems so promising. read more

If you're looking to make a group order, this is the place. Something for everyone and a great lunch spot. Food was without a doubt delicious but what you get for what you pay, wasn't worth it for me. For nearly $15, the sandwich I got was pretty small. I'm comparing to monster sandwiches I'm used to from Chubs and these just don't compare. Regardless, still a good option for the area if you're looking for a quick and easy bite. Just know for what you're paying, there are other choices. read more

Needed somewhere to get a quick bite to eat so I stopped by Pantano's since it had decent reviews. Walked in and everyone was on their phone. Stood there for a few minutes before someone even acknowledged me to take my order There is an up charge for using credit card, so better to pay with cash. After I ordered, the woman working there asked me to wait at the end while they made the food. 4-5 people came in and left with their food before i asked her where my food was. The same woman who took my order not even 20 minutes prior had no clue what I was doing there or if I had even ordered and turns out my food was just sitting there on the back counter. No apologies, no acknowledgment. Just handed the bag and walks away. Terrible service, crappy food, overpriced. Save your money to go elsewhere. It's located in a lot with other food/eateries. You're better off trying literally anywhere else. read more

Wow. I just received a call from Pantano's owner. I ordered 3 plates of pasta from them yesterday & 2 out of the 3 pasta's WAS SUPER SUPER BLAND. That's not our fault as customers, we have a saying to our food. I didn't come on here to complain about their food because my sister had already done so. I didn't feel the need to come on here to give it a bad rating UNTIL I received this very disturbing phone call! My sister's second time eating at this restaurant, first time she really enjoyed the pasta, this time, she said it was super disappointing. Because the pasta is bland, I can confirm that it had no flavor, and the pasta was overcooked. The owner of the restaurant personally called my number THE NEXT DAY!! to complain to me about the review that was left on their Yelp. He blatantly told me "If don't like it, just don't come back". However if you can see dating back, I've been a FAN of this place. WE love this place, I have over 10 check ins, not even counting the times I forget to check in!!! Now for me to CONTINUOUSLY have issues with the manager & owner of this place, I will NOT be coming back anymore. Pasta is extremely expensive but it was valid, that's why I was a loyal customer. But this time, my sister and I BOTH found it disappointing & my sister doesn't have the right to write a review now? LOL!! Then the owner proceeded to get at me about a review I wrote OVER A YEAR AGO! Which I gave them a 4 star (still being nice because I love their food!!) But I had continuously had problems with the manger of that place. Whenever we placed pickup orders, it was always attitude attitude attitude. He knew who we were, read my previous review! Definitely won't be coming back. That was an experience within itself! Super rude manager and super rude owner. My boyfriend who's a very patient and calm person even got mad with the owner because of how he called ME to complain about MY SISTER'S review on their Yelp page (which she had EVERY RIGHT to.) Then complained about a review I wrote over a year ago too... saying if you don't the place, don't come back. And I was super annoyed because like I stated, BIG FAN of this place, just always had issues with the manager when I made phone calls for pickup. Now the owner??!!! Omg. Definitely won't be seeing me anymore!! SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL WAY TO HANDLE THE SITUATION! If you have a Yelp page, respond back to HER review on the Yelp page as business owner. I'm not sure why he had to call me personally to go on a whole rant. I have over 10 check ins to this restaurant, I've been a loyal customer now to deal with this foolery. Best of luck to your business. This is how they treat their loyal customers. I'm an elite on Yelp too, for 3 years now. I'm not the one to write a long review like this unless I have a BIG issue with the business. Please view the photo I posted of what the owner of this restaurant has said to a previous customer who had bought food from their restaurant. Almost the same things he said to me!! Guess what?? YOU AND YOUR RESTAURANT IS FAR FROM PERFECT. SO DON'T EXPECT PERFECT REVIEWS! And bashing customers for their HONESTY?? You are incapable of running a 5 star business with an attitude like that. read more

I really do not understand the good reviews. This place is disgusting. I ordered a Greek salad I had to add vegetables it only came with onions ,feta cheese and lettuce. The vegetables were not fresh and the chicken was rubbery from being overcooked. My husband's sandwich tasted good but was super heavy with sauce breading cheese. Will not be back read more

The food is good but just not worth the price. I had an Italian hero, extra side of Mac salad, a pickle and a Gatorade which all cost $26.19 The sandwich was good but very skimpy in the meat. Overall just not worth the price. read more

I have been meaning to try this place because it has so many reviews and over 4 stars. It was pretty good but I would probably give it a 3.75 if I could. We ordered the Cajun burger, Philly burger and Spicy Melissa. Strangely enough, if you are ordering through the Pantano's website (not Yelp, DoorDash, etc), the Spicy Melissa is not available. I had to call to place the order manually. Another warning, that wrap is SOO heavy! Very tasty, but SOO heavy. The Cajun burger was also good. Tasty but a little dry. The Philly burger was just ok and again, a little dry. The mashed potatoes however was very bad. Tasteless even with the gravy. Mac salad was also pretty bland. The Cajun fries were ok. Overall, it was good but not great. read more

I love this Pantanos so much. My favorite sandwiches currently are the Big John, Gabby, Griller and for breakfast my boyfriends go to is the Big Boy and mine is a BEC on toasted eth bagel!!! Staff is always friendly to us and store is very clean which i appreciate. 1 negative is parking but i found a hack for that ( park by the light next to the Pantano's little car) and they are currently closed on Sundays read more

I'll keep it short and sweet. I used to fiend for Pantano's paninis. Now the food has decreased in size and skyrocketed in price ( there's no up to date pricing here, you find out that your food is several dollars more than the menu only once you are swiping your card) and now we are eating off of paper plates. Also the attitude on the guys who work here is like you owe something to them! If I wanted a tiny sandwich on a styrofoam plate I'll make it at home for about 20$ less the cost. Oh, also, use the restroom before you come here! It's a shame. They went from my favorite sandwich spot to a joke. Food is still delicious just not worth the money and depressing to look at now. read more

Pantanos of Plainview catered my baby shower this past weekend. The food was amazing!! Three days later and I'm still getting texts complimenting the food. Gian Luca and his staff made everything so so easy, from the amount of food I would need to what to actually order to the sides and extra sauces; everything was perfect. With such a busy day, that was one thing I didn't have to worry and stress about. I highly recommend! read more

I used to come here weekly, literally my Favorite spot. But since Covid we've seen some downfalls that make me not wanna come back. The prices have gone way up, i split a sandwich with my boyfriend and got a water and it was 17$..... we used to be able to both eat here for 20$. Also we ordered to stay and we're served the food on foam throw away plates, used to be nice metal trays. Lastly I really get annoyed the bathrooms been closed since Covid, you should have it open for customers..... As always the foods amazing it's just no longer worth the prices (that are not even accurate on the wall) read more

Good food, great selection and menu. BUT- WAY OVERPRICED. I got a lettuce wrap - the Mezz wrap- but lettuce wrap and Banana: came to $18.75. Not happy. The size of the sandwich was tiny. Really? What a shame. read more

This is right in my neighborhood. Never had a chance to stop in until recently. My first time here was actually a few weeks ago. I was picking up just a breakfast sandwich for my boyfriend. He got egg whites, turkey and tomato on an everything bagel. He enjoyed it very much! It was also quite big. He said it was full of flavor and very delicious. The girl behind the counter was super friendly as well. She appeared that she actually enjoys her job and is happy to be there. Fast forward to today... I actually got to try something! I went with a Greek omelette without onions. It was very flavorful! The flavors were seriously dancing on my tongue throughout every bite. The omelette came with a little salad of lettuce and tomato and Italian dressing. Very fresh. My boyfriend got the same egg sandwich that I mentioned above. He enjoyed it once again. The workers are very friendly and they actually appear to enjoying working here. It's a warm and inviting environment. There are a few tables inside as well as some tables outside as the weather is getting nicer. They are more than just breakfast! I took a menu home with me to look at. They have sandwiches, wraps, paninis, pastas, entrees, and a ton of side dishes. I can't wait to try something new for lunch/dinner! read more
