Panini Kabob Grill - Cerritos

I was craving some kabobs or salmon and this chain hit the spot! Excellent customer service, the lentil soup is delicious and the salmon was as delicious as I remembered it. Overall very satisfying lunch! I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items.

Came here because my usual other kabob spot was closed that day. I ordered the Family Combo - comes with 4 Chicken Skewers Served with Choice of Any Two Sides ( Pilaf & salad). Additional side of falafel with sliced cucumbers. Hummus and pita bread are charged EXTRA, not included. That was unexpected but understandable given how everything is so much more expensive these days. I could eat that fresh greens salad with sweet strawberries and candied nuts all day. Kebabs were tender and tasty , meat cooked to the perfect done-ness. Occupies a very large corner spot in the same plaza as a Filipino centric grocery store, Four Seasons Asian buffet and bigger Target. Place is suitable for larger groups. They were quite busy this July 4th holiday but my order was ready when promised ( I placed by

This restaurant specializes in kabobs, especially chicken (8/10) which is moist and well seasoned. It comes with blistered onions and peppers. The portion is quite generous, we picked grilled veggies and strawberry date salad (which costs extra). We also ordered chicken pesto panini sandwich (7/10). I would have preferred a ciabatta or focaccia instead of grilled sourdough bread. They do not have shawarma, gyro, moussaka or paella, however there are several pasta dishes. We waited for 15 minutes on a Friday evening, the place was rather packed.

So impressed. The space is beautiful—sunny outdoor seating, cozy indoor vibes, and twinkle lights that make everything feel a little more special. The food? Even better. We ordered paninis and salads, and both plates were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. I especially loved the strawberry walnut salad—sweet, crunchy, tangy, and just right with the pesto panini. And that tiramisu? Easily one of the best I’ve had in California. Light, creamy, not overly sweet… just dreamy. Can’t wait to come back and try the kebabs next. This one’s officially in the lunch rotation. PS: Today’s July 19, we went back again thus the additional photos. 😋 😋 😋

I was very disappointed with this location. The food was bland, and the rice tasted reheated. The cappuccino was a bit cold. I ordered the steak panini, and it was ok. It tasted almost like a Philly cheese steak sandwich. The other guest ordered a combination kebab plate. He also complained about the temperature and taste of the food. When we arrived, no one was at the entrance to seat us. I believe the hostess may have been in the restroom. Once we got in, there were hardly any customers, and the food still took a little longer to come out of the kitchen. The only thing I really enjoyed was the basket of warm artisinal bread. Overall, I would not return based on the service and flavor of the meal. I love panini over all as a brand, but this location needs to step it up.
