Panini Grill was founded by three brothers from Italy, eager to open an Italian family style restaurant in America.

We wanted a traditional family atmosphere, Trattoria or neighborhood place that offers large portions and a variety of homemade, home-style cooking, just like my Mamma used to make. "WERE MORE THAN JUST PANINI'S"

We'd love to welcome your group of 12 or more, please call us for availability.

Come join us at our home! Mangia!!

As always, Panini Grill was great last night! I’ve made the trip 3 times from New Jersey, and well worth it. Great food, awesome selections, service was on point, and Peter is an excellent host. Highly recommend!
