Joe's Panini 24h is described as a place for tasty paninis and late night bites, with fans praising the spicy chicken panini and BLT, the casual vibe, and the open hours that make it a reliable stop after hours. The reviews also note a space that feels a bit worn and in need of renovation, reflecting a mixed atmosphere. Quality seems variable: some praise strong paninis and good prices, while others report declines since ownership changed, such as dry mac and cheese and bland chicken and portions that feel smaller than before. Despite the ups and downs, many still consider it a hidden gem and a dependable option for a quick sandwich, while others warn about slow service and inconsistent portions. Overall the spot remains a popular late night option with a mix of enthusiasm and critique.
I used to make sure to go to Joe's Panini every single time I was downtown for the spicy chicken panini. Today I went & was HIGHLY disappointed. The panini was basically empty & flat, to the point where one half of the sandwich didn't even have chicken. The flavor was still good which is why I am giving 3 stars but it was basically like eating bread with a sprinkle of chicken/tomato & cheese.
Horrible… Je demande 2 panini JAMBON FROMAGE, je me retrouve avec un panini SALADE TOMATE JAMBON. Je demande au gars de l'accueil si il sait pas trompé car dans le sandwich il y a salade & tomates en plus du jambon & du fromage & là il me dit que c'est un classique des sandwiches alors je lui dis qu'une non car c'est marqué jambon & fromage sur le panneau d'affichage, il me répète que oui c'est normal si je veux un jambon & fromage je dois payer deux sandwich en plus alors que j'avais déjà payé mes deux sandwiches jambon & fromage, sachant que je ne savais pas que dans leur sandwich, soi-disant jambon, fromage, il y avait de la tomate & de la salade alors je lui ai dit bah tu peux pas les refaire en enlevant la salade & la tomate car je n'étais pas au courant sachant que ce n'est pas ça pas affiché, alors il me dis je dois repayer si je veux juste jambon fromage… Ducoup je suis parti avec mes 2 panini (jambon fromage) garni de salade & tomate en plus .
Ne conseille pas !

Mauvaise qualité le sandwich est rien dedans j'ai commandé un poulet panini il on rien mis dans le sandwich juste salade un peu de sauce & même pas le poulet c'est de la triche la qualité est nul la ne pas recommande & leur service est nulle
They gained an additional star for using bocconcini as the melting cheese in the spicy chicken. Not so spicy BTW, but tasty. New: I just ordered the same sandwich & I vomited half way into it. The chicken doesn't smell fresh. I'm not happy.
This place was the panini place go to, i ordered this weekend we ended up with bread salad sandwiches. Sausages sliced thin as paper placed one each other so like a total of 5 thin slices, hardly any chicken in our sandwich. Only the BLT had a adequate qty. For the price we pay, it's a rip-off. This needs to be looked at by the owners cause doesnt reflect well on the image of this once iconic Panini place.
Used to be great 10 years ago, recently brought my girlfriend here after telling her it was really good. Ordered a tomato & boconcini sandwich, got one slice of a red radish & a small romaine leaf in a bread.
Used to love this place. Was back in town this weekend & grabbed a club for the road. Whoever prepped it loaded it with tons of onions instead of lettuce. Bacon was also basically raw. Was not a fan, sandwich ruined.
Very nice Panini at a fair price. I recommend trying the smoked turkey & cheese Panini with a dollop of pesto sauce. It's a small little nook of a sandwich bar, but the people are friendly & it's perfect for a quick inexpensive bite.

Le panini était bon. Toutefois, il manquait le fromage & les tomates dans mon sandwich. Mon amie qui a aussi commandé un panini l'a reçu elle aussi sans fromage.
