Grand Opening! Panini Cafe In Woodland Hills Now Open For Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

I’m happy to inform you that as of yesterday, Panini Cafe in Woodland Hills is now open 7 days a week serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  As you might remember, Panini Cafe replaces Pomodoro Cucina Italiana, which closed in December.

I stopped in tonight and was surprised to see how busy the place was.  I was able to have a great conversation with the very friendly and helpful Panini Cafe manager, Israel.  He informed me that they opened on Thursday, though they had originally intended to open on February 1st.  The renovation construction, which looks awesome by the way, took a little bit longer than expected, and  they are still working out a few kinks here or there.  However, you could barely tell as the place seemed to be functioning on all cylinders.

Panini Cafe is open 363 days a day (they only close on the 4th of July and on Christmas).  Best of all they open at 8am seven days a week and serve  breakfast until 11:30am on week days, and 3pm on weekends.  Israel says they have been pretty busy – especially during lunch hours – even though they didn’t really do any promotion of their opening.  He explains that many regular visitors to other locations of the chain, which has its nearest locations in Sherman Oaks, Beverly Hills, and Santa Monica, live in Woodland Hills and he hopes they’ll become regulars at the new location.

Israel also points out that the restaurants gets fresh produce and meats (many of which are organic and locally sourced) delivered six days a week.  They also get fresh bread delivered daily from iI Fornaio (good stuff).  Most vegetables are chopped and prepared as you order them to assure freshness.  It’s a pretty nice place, and I’m hoping to drop by in the next day or two to enjoy the food.  Here is the menu in PDF format.

Panini Cafe Woodland Hills is located at 21600 Victory Blvd and their phone number is (818) 992-3330.
