The restaurant is located in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. They prepare Italian/American cuisine and have multiple locations. Soups, appetizers, bruschetta, large variety of paninis, wraps, crepes, desserts and beverages are available. They offer breakfast all day. Servers are available for dining in. I ordered a grilled chicken panini and side order of spinach. It was very good and well-prepared. Friendly and helpful staff.

The number of different options was exciting yet overwhelming. I was unaware a panini could have so many variations! Very fresh ingredients and I would come here again.
