Piadina has become one of my favorite lunch spots in Irvine. I ordered the Irvine sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious fresh ingredients, great flavor, and cooked perfectly. It's one of those places that makes you wonder why it isn't constantly packed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is always spotless, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One thing I really appreciate is that they bring your food to your table, which is a nice touch these days. Be sure to leave them a tip they definitely earn it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you have a dog, you'll love the outdoor patio, so you can enjoy lunch with Fido.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's also plenty of parking, which makes stopping by easy. Another bonus is the location. It's right next to Dairy Queen and several other restaurants, so if you're craving dessert afterward, you've got plenty of options. They also have an awesome self-serve fountain drink station with a great variety of sodas and flavored drinks. I almost hesitate to write this because it feels like Irvine's best-kept lunch secret. The food is consistently excellent, the service is outstanding, and there's rarely a long line. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out. Highly recommended! read more

Always loved this place but the customer service was horrible on my last order. I placed an order on DoorDash and paid extra for chicken to be added to my Caprese. I paid $2.85 extra for each Padina. I called in and asked if they could make sure that they use the grilled chicken instead of the deli meat. This has never been an issue in two years. The woman I spoke with, I think her name was VEE, made it a cumbersome process to try to charge me another $5 for the grilled chicken. While I understand this chicken is more expensive and I have paid the additional fee in the past, she made the process very cumbersome, all while dealing with a crying baby. I might've spent $1000 here over the years, and I told her that this might be my last time ordering given this experience. Her exact comments back was, "OK no worries." So in the future, I'll never order again and you've lost me as a customer. Congrats. You made $5 more. And lost hundreds in the process. read more

TLDR sandwich shop with an Italian flair. Premium offerings and a unique flatbread that has a unique chew pair with cafe goods like pastries and coffee for an enticing fast casual concept! I'd check it out again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Piadina is a small, bright sandwich eatery in Santa Ana. It looks like a chain but I couldn't find any other locations on their website.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Al's though it looks like a fast casual shop where you walk down the line and pick your fixins but it's much more streamlined. You just order and sit, more like a burger joint. They also offer cafe choices like coffee and pastries. Items are on the pricier side but honestly it's filling. I'm told seasonal items rotate decently frequently Piemonte (seasonal) I'm a really big fan of the bread for these sandwiches. It reminds me somewhat of Chinese scallion pancakes as far as texture is concerned: a slightly sandy exterior with a dense chew. Flavor on the bread is doughy and nutty, very pleasant. As far as toppings, this is a very successful wich! The brisket is tender and savory, vegetables are crisp, onions sweet and crunchy, and the aioli tastes strongly of truffle. I'd check it out again if I was in the area! 7/10 Sweet caramel chai latte Well made and as described but nothing too crazy. Ginger is the most prominent spice and the caramel is a nice touch without being overpowering. 6/10 Overall I love the idea of a sandwich shop that has decent coffee. Check this place out for a quick lunch! read more

Absolutely love Piadina! It's been a while since I've had it and it was just as good as I remembered, if not better. Needed a quick bite to eat and the Newport is everything I want in a sandwich: well-assembled, packed with delicious and savory flavors, quality ingredients, all wrapped in delicious textured flatbread that's been cooked on a griddle. Although the piadinas don't look large, I've always found them to be filling and have trouble eating the entire thing in one sitting unless I'm super hungry. So I would say they are not huge portions but extremely satisfying to eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service is friendly and efficient and ambiance is casual - a great spot to stop by if you need something fast and delicious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So happy we have one in the neighborhood! read more

Piadina - NEWPORT - Italian Near Me - Tustin, California

Great place to get Italian flatbread! Their piadina is always made fresh to order. I got the Piemonte which is my go to order. Due to the truffle aioli, it has a steong flavor kick so if you're not a fan of truffle, you can try their Austin one which comes with garlic aioli instead and avocados to balance out the brisket flavor. The flatbread is nice and crispy on the outside and a soft chew texture. They also give a good amount of meat and sauce so it just blends so well! The staff here are friendly and very open to explain their menu to you if it's your first time. They also do have a rewards app, which you can accumulate points between this store and their sister store Sole Toscano in Irvine, but you can only redeem points when you order through their app, just a heads up! Between this store and their sister store, the piadinas here are much better! read more

Great place for some good quick bites! They have Italian sandwiches, salads, and pizzas. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Aesthetic & Ambiance: 7/10 it's mainly a walk up and order, but you can also see your food and ingredients further down. The décor is minimal and the vibe is more fast casual with a handful of seating inside but plenty outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service: 8/10 quick and friendly, and made sure I got my food outside. The Irvine Sandwich: 8/10 the soppressata has a little spicy bite, but the pesto evens it out with a great herb taste. The bread is also great, very thin, and crispy. read more

I ordered a custom/build your own sandwich with Italian cooked ham and they only put one single slice onto the entire sandwich. Barely any tomatoes and the pesto was just one big blob. I ordered through DoorDash which is why I couldn't see them make it. Very disappointing. read more

I was looking to buy sandwiches for a party of 3, and I initially went to Which Wich which was next door. I was overwhelmed with customizing 3 sandwiches and wanted something pre-made, so I left that store and decided to check out Piadina! I was very content with the various Italian sandwiches offered on their menu. I ordered the Parma (pictured), Reggio, and Genova. The Reggio had the most spice, but all 3 entrees were straightforward and delicious! The service was quick and the employees were all very kind. For a unique cultural twist on sandwiches, check out Piadina at the Marketplace! read more

Piadina - Napoli - Italian Near Me - Tustin, California

I love the sister eatery, Sole Toscano, by the same owner and am super happy that Piadina is closeby to my workplace and the GrubHub delivery went very smoothly. The tricolore piadizza was exactly what I wanted it to be: very light and low-calorie with ultra-premium ingredients straight from Italy. I can really taste the difference in quality in the mozzarella cheese and the pesto is very smooth and clean. The tomatoes were nice and fresh too. Piadina's menu items are so awesome because they are incredibly tasty but I can eat most of their items even as I am on a very restricted diet due to the quality and lightness. I'm planning to get Piadina once a week via GrubHub from my workplace, and every other weekday will be my restricted diet lunch. Very reliable, even for deliveries, so I'm very happy! read more

An unassuming sandwich shop tucked away in the shopping center of Tustin, you'll find Piadina, an Italian sandwich shop. We had zero expectations as I've never tried this style of Italian sandwich using flatbread. We ordered a turkey based flatbread sandwich. The sandwich overall was good, but the star was the flatbread which was prepared fresh on the press then toasted. The flatbread greatly resembled a soft roti or high quality green onion pancake. If you're ever in the area shopping, give them a try. read more

Everytime I've been here the food has been excellent, everyone who works here is polite, kind and welcoming. The flatbread the sandwiches come are are so good We haven't tasted anything like it ! I would be in trouble if they sold these flatbreads packaged . I'm surprised they haven't done breakfast piadinas. All very tasty, The bistecca piadina is my favorite, plenty of protein. Thank you, See you again! read more

I have been going to Piadina for YEARS. Each time purchasing at least three sandwiches with a minimum $50 total. This most recent time, 6/4/26, was where I drew the line. Increased prices, I understand. First, what I assume was the manager left the poor girl, who was obviously new, to make my sandwiches on her own so she, an insult to a supervisors or title, could go on break so she could take a few personal calls. Now whenever I've ordered the New York, I ask for a side of balsamic vinegar and gotten it with a smile. This time, I was informed it is going to be a 50 cent extra charge. I assumed since she was new, maybe it was a mistake. No, I went outside to ask the 'person in charge', who was clearly annoyed I was interrupting her call to solve world peace, only to be told, sorry, you'll need to pay. Well, a true sign of a business is how you treat your customers, and take into account what you are really providing. So, to the owner of Piadina, you just lost a long standing customer, over a mere 50 cent. To me, it's not about the money but rather how I am valued, and clearly, my biweekly $50 order is not worth a complimentary side of vinegar. Either learn some business acumen or hire people that understand the value of a customer. read more

Writing this nine years later, tried piadina when i was a senior in highschool and now I'm a Full fledged adult with a job haha! Wow piadina is such a gem, their sandwiches are absolutely delicious, crunchy and fresh. But to expand on my previous review, I want to talk about their sandwich specials, specifically the Piamonte sandwich. If you are hungry, ravenous for something fulfilling but light and tasty and meaty, more so than a sub sandwich, this is IT. Dunno how the staff made made such a magical combo, but I also recommended this specific sandwich to my friends and it is LIFE CHANGING: brisket, truffle aioli, onion, arugula. One note: its on their special menu you have to walk in or call to order, but it's worth it...I'm sad I finished it all before taking a picture. Really hope they have it on the menu for awhile, as I plan to come back to savor it again! Thank you Piadina! read more

Piadina - They make their bread fresh! Way better than subway where the bread's just sitting there. - Italian Near Me - Tustin, California

Piadina is here to satiate your sandwich cravings with a light, pita-like flatbread filled with delicate textures and flavors ranging from chicken pesto to italian-style deli meats (salami and friends). The concept is simple, but the execution is strong. More lively than a Subway and carb-conscious friendly, Piadina provides a convenient and healthy option in the Tustin Marketplace. There is plenty of outdoor seating shared with other nearby restaurants. Parking is also easily accessible. So which sandwiches hit those tasty notes? The California Chicken, with it's delicious pesto sauce and render roasted chicken, is a standout. The Austin, with its juicy brisket, garlic aioli - and again that pesto sauce - is also delicious. The Italian flavors also have a couple of standouts like the Reggio, with its spicy mix of tatar and hot sauce combined with the umami of mushroom and prosciutto. There are also salads (effectively the sandwiches with greens instead of flatbread) and flatbread "pizzas" called Piadizzas available. These sandwiches are delicate rather than hearty. If you are hungry, you may want a couple of orders instead of one. These sandwiches are delicate - you won't find a mountain of meat inside these thin pockets of tasty bread - but that is exactly their appeal. You'll enjoy eating a sandwich or two here, guilt-free! read more

I absolutely love Piadina. The food is consistently excellent and the quality of the ingredients is outstanding. My parents live abroad, and every time they visit, this is one of their favorite places to eat -- it's honestly one of the healthiest and highest-quality options we can find. I was also very happy to see that you recently added a premium, high-quality steak to the menu. It's a great addition and fits perfectly with the quality standards of the restaurant. The only challenge I've encountered is with online ordering. At the moment, the steak option is not available online (only brisket appears), and the platform mainly offers "add-ons" but doesn't allow for easy substitutions or removals. There's also no option to request no dressing, which makes it harder to customize orders. Because I truly love this place and order from here often, I'd love to see some improvements in the online menu -- more flexibility with substitutions, removals, and full access to the in-store menu items. I believe this would make ordering even more efficient and enjoyable for customers. Thank you for the amazing food and for maintaining such high standards. I'll definitely keep coming back! read more

It's good but for the price, I wouldn't say it was worth it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]People were nice, it was half empty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got a panini. It felt like they just put some prosciutto between a pita from Costco ‍ read more

I think this was the reggio. Overall it's a pretty classic and simple combo of arugula prosciutto mushrooms tomatoes and mozzarella and it was really yummy! I really liked the special Piadina hot sauce too... wish it came with more on the side but it made the perfect addition to the sandwhich. The filling was really light and only wish there was more so it could be a more packed meal! read more

Ordered a Newport Sandwich for lunch last week and it was good! I've been coming to this unique Italian sandwich shop for several years now but I feel like the quality has dropped since I last ate here. The bread is not as good as it used to be but the fillings inside are still delicious and good quality. The turkey combined with the mozzarella, prosciutto, spinach, and garlic aioli makes for a good lunch meal. Prices have definitely gone up since the pandemic which is a negative for me but I do understand that they had to raise prices because food costs went up. They still offer a variety of sandwiches and service was good when I came in and parking is plentiful in the Irvine Marketplace. I would come here again if I was nearby and wanted something different but Piadina doesn't wow me anymore as they used to. read more

Unreal. To say the least this is my new fav sandwich spot. I have dreamt about this sandwich since I had. I can't wait to be back. I think I'll order delivery today since I live in HB.. I hope they build one in huntignton beach.. I ordered two diff piadina sandwiches. One was a turkey called Newport and I added toasted almonds.. which was a win! and the other was the Austin and it was so damn good. I really liked both a lot. My friend and I switched half and half. Asdar and Branton helped me and they were great. Branton was able to suggest some options as my friend had never been here and for me it had been years.. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the place was super clean and had some chip options/ soup and pizzas also.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had plenty of seating outside and inside with nice A/C.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The parking at this location can be tricky for sure but maybe order ahead and then pick it up to go? They have to go spots outside that should be open because the security patrols the area religiously. I used to work near this marketplace so I have come to this shopping center quite a few times and the struggle can be real so I'm glad they added these to go pick up spots for short term parking. Thanks piadina you made a life long fan. read more

I came here because it was next to Sephora and I was starving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There wasn't a wait, the restaurant itself very clean and staff was friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was unsure of what to order so I asked for two sandwiches; the Milano because of the advertised picture on yelp and the California because the employee at the register (I didn't catch his name, but he's tall curly haired) recommended it. I also purchased an Italian peach iced tea (delicious) and chips which I would skip next time. Im giving 4 stars solely for the California sandwich and gentleman at the cash register that made it. It was probably one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time! The wrap was toasted perfectly and ingredients were fresh/ tasty. The pesto sauce makes the sandwich taste superb! Now, the Milano was made by someone else (a young lady?) and it was lacking... the bread (although it's the same as the California) wasn't toasted the same & it seemed to be low on its ingredients. For the price you pay you'd think it would be stuffed with greens and tomatoes, but it was not the case so I had to minus 1 star for the inconsistency :( Either way, if I'm in the area I would definitely come back for the California sandwich! read more

Food excellent. I like the crunch of the flat bread. Second time visiting in two weeks. That's how much I like the sandwich. read more

Piadina is great if you're looking for a quick bite and fresh bread. The bread is made fresh, flaky and light, and you can choose the different fillings based on pre-set items. I got the California which had turkey, veggies, and avocado. The fillings are pretty standard compared to a normal deli. So the main standout is really the bread. Other than that it's clean and has plenty of seating. There's plenty of parking and the service was quick and efficient. So it's a solid place to grab a bite and chill out. read more

While I was in the area, I looked up some food places to try, and this place looked good, so I gave it a whirl! The people there were really nice great customer service, but it took a while to get my food to go. Sandwich was to go with the Cappuccino was not which was fine because I finished the cappuccino pretty fast. Inside it looks like a regular sandwich shop. The sandwich I ordered was the Caprese sandwich and I was so looking forward to it because I love Caprese, but honestly, the sandwich was not that great. I would give them another chance on a different sandwich, but I am never in that area. Hopefully the other sandwiches are more delicious! Cappuccino was great though! read more
