Panino's Pizzeria Park Ridge

Panino's in Park Ridge is absolutely amazing! The food is high quality, fresh, prepared perfectly and big portions! I have a dietary restriction, gluten-free (Celiac), and they have a decent size selection to pick from. Couldn't even tell it was gluten-free! Most importantly, I have never gotten sick there from cross contamination of food. The service is great too! Fred is awesome, can talk to anyone and is fun and interesting to talk to as well! Overall, I love this place! I live about 45-50 minutes away, and it's definitely worth the drive!

This is one of our regular and favorite places to eat. It is small, quaint and cozy. It feels like home. The food is excellent and their pizza is Awesome!

This is definitely one of my top 5 pizzas! Plenty of toppings and a delicious sauce. My mouth is watering right now and 6 am

Got to the restaurant soon after they opened for the evening, which was the right call. It got filled up fast for good reason. It's a very small restaurant, but they had some of the best pizza I've ever had. On the wall, they showcase their numerous first place wins in various competitions. All of that is deserved. We had the Spanish Octopus and Artichoke Heart appetizers and both were phenomenal. The octopus was cooked to perfection. Completely tender with no tough or chewy parts, even at the tip. All of the flavors worked together so well. The artichoke hearts were plump, full of flavor, and the buttered bread crumbs lent it a good crunch to contrast with the soft vegetable. We ordered the deep dish pizza with a few toppings. The cheese was wonderfully stretchy, and the tomato sauce packed such a powerful punch of flavor. Concentrated acidity and tomato flavor with a good blend of herbs and spices. Lastly, I ordered a cannoli for dessert. I was blown away. The shell was crisp, and the filling was light, sweet, and creamy. I'm used to denser cannoli so it was a wonderful surprise. Everything was delicious, the waitresses were attentive and helpful, and I had an incredible time. It's absolutely worth a trip there.

I love this place!!! The food and service are excellent. We had the chicken with fried eggplant on top and it melted in our mouths. We can’t wait to go back!! The banana praline gelato was amazing as well!
