Panini Grill 538 Forest Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10310

"We made the trip down from Rhode Island and the experience was better than what we expected, it was a whole vibe! My husband (second generation Italian) follows the restaurant on social media and he fell in love with the food. I wish we lived closer but we’ll definitely be back!"

"Food was fresh and great! Server played no games and recommended 3 delicious meals! Ask for Joella next time you’re there. You won’t be disappointed!"

"We went here for a friend's birthday we had a party of 16 people. We went on a Friday night so I'm not sure if it's customary for them to have live music but they did have live music there. The singer was excellent at times through the night even the owner got on the mic to sing. It was very loud and fun atmosphere. If you're looking to go for a quiet romantic night this is not the place to go LOL at least not when there is live entertainment. Service was very friendly and very efficient considering we were a table of 16. Appetizers came out when we were completed it was a reasonable amount of wait time until our dinners came out and a reasonable amount of wait time for dessert. The place was decorated beautifully, food was delicious the owner was super friendly and singing with the live entertainment. Overall we had a great time I would definitely go back again on a night that wasn't for a party just to experience a regular dinner. I would also like to try different things on the menu because everybody's entree looked delicious. Parking was street parking."

"Panini Grill changed my life. Best Italian spot on Staten Island. Between the pizzas, the pastas, the panini, the grill… you just can’t go wrong. Everything is so good, and I especially love Pete’s Panini and the South Beach pizza. The atmosphere is always fun, and they decorate the whole place so well for the holidays. Except for all the little elves… they terrify me. I don’t trust them."

"Came from NJ! Definitely worth the trip!!! Everyone so friendly from when you walk thru the door! The food was amazing! We had all the specials. Our server Michelle was great!! I could eat here every day!!! And I love the Christmas atmosphere!! Big fun!!!"
