Cute place, my first time here. The panini & service was disappointing though. I had the porchetta panini. It was super dry, there was no olive oil or butter on the panini, was just dry porchetta & lettuce & pepper. Was hard to swallow down , that's how dry it was. Porchetta was not at all seasoned. Had to remind them to bring my coffee. Host taking my order was impatient also. Not encouraged to come back.

Very nice chill coffee, the music is chill, staff super nice & helpful. We took 2 teas, a cappuccino & a hot chocolate. Everything tasted good. The cappuccino & hot chocolate were not too sweet, perfect!
Highly recommend.

I ordered a panini trio.

Parma Club panini (chicken, tomato, lettuce, mayonnaise, a bit of pancetta (~bacon)): chicken is dry so more sauce would have been better, but they give a lot of meat so it's an alright trade off.

Fries: seasoned fries with truffle mayo.

Aranciata soda: sweet orange soda, there is just the smallest bit of pulp at the bottom.
