Pizzeria Panina

I now have been here four times: twice as a twosome and twice with the whole family and each time the food was good, the service was great, and the experience was enjoyable for everyone in the group. Strongly recommend the pepperoni, porco rosso, and spicy pizzas. All of them have delectable crusts, decadent and plentiful toppings, and the right texture. I had the date cake with gelato as a dessert and it was amazing. Not too sweet, fluffier than expected, and just such a nice flavor combination between the sauce, the gelato, and the cake itself.

This place is a must! Pizzeria Panina takes a classic staple, like pizza, and turns it into a whole new unique item. We had the Bianca and Classic and it was phenomenal! We also had two salads (arugula and the Cesar), the bruschetta, and also the insanely good date cake. We also had the most lovely waitresses last night that made the experience even better.

The best restaurant in Ridgewood! Everything is super good and service is on point. Just a great restaurant altogether! Came here twice already. Never disappointed with the food. The waitresses here are always quick and friendly with their prompt services. Everything is good. Literally. From cocktails, appetizers, pasta specials, and the INCREDIBLE PIZZAS! these are the best pizzas I've had in a while. Their dough is soft fluffy on the crust and thin and crispy on the bottom. We have tried most of the flavors and every pizza is a winner. Their pasta is equally well done!! Carbonara, agnolotti etc etc are fantastic! The sauces, texture, and the flavors are all on point. The date cake with the miso caramel?! Wow 😲 that is one decadent dessert! What a way to end a great meal! Get the gelato or the whipped cream, both are super delicious. Can't recommend this enough! Rolos is the most overrated restaurant in NYC right now. Forget Rolos, it's all hype. El Gigante is also a let down, mediocre at best, but better than Rolos. Panina is A++!!

Incredible spot for our first night in town from Boston! Shout out my girl Victoria for reserving us the table, and to the whole staff for being lovely and kind and treating us like family. The service is really very good which made the experience so fun. The food was incredible. We genuinely left stuffed after sharing salad, meatballs, pizza, and pasta. The sticky date cake was truly the star though…..so good I forgot to get a picture 😂😭

For a place focused on pizza, the pizza missed badly. We ordered three pies. All arrived soggy and wet. The crust was overly thick. The slices collapsed due to a soaked center. The date cake stood out and tasted excellent. The pistachio tiramisu was acceptable. Service was fine overall, though one server with glasses came across as unfriendly. She might have been having a rough day. The experience was average, but the pizza was a major disappointment.
