il Panino - café méditerranéo

Delicious paninis and sides - pasta on one and beet salad on the other. Friendly staff too!

Decent place - food was really food A bit pricey Good location - central to everything and right near Concordia U Service was fast and friendly

Best sandwich and salad place downtown. My fave is the avocado chicken sandwich and I don't like avocado so that's saying a lot. Loved hanging out here with colleagues. Returned Visit: still my absolute fave sandwich place and I'm loving their outdoor seating!

Fantastic panini sandwiches with so many choices, I always have hard time deciding which to take. Salads are amazing as well. The portion is really big we always share a meal. Coffee is delicious.

I get nauseous every single time i eat their salads. The first few times i thought it was a coincidence. But it definitely is their salads. 7 hrs later i still feel like throwing up. On a positive note, their paninis are good.

I love "Il Panino" great food, specifically my favorite one is The Louisiana Panino, but all paninos are fantastic! You will love them. Great place to eat inside, you can listen to good music, great service. I recommend it a lot

This is a cozy, quiet place - ideal for having a work lunch, a snack with a friend or even for doing some homework between classes (there is free wifi). The salads and paninis I have tried tasted really good, were well seasoned and fresh. The chickpea salad, the beets salad and Le Greque sandwich are my favourite options. Try sitting on the patio, it's really pleasant during the warmer months!

This is my go to place for food when I'm around school! It's a little pricy but the sandwiches are super tasty and the staff is very nice. If you go on a regular basis you can ask for a loyalty card to get discounts (15% on your 6th meal and 25% on your 12th meal). They serve Lavazza coffee, which I think is pretty good.

Really just meh. I always feel uninspired by their sandwich creations. None of them scream "Delicious" to me. I ordered the spicy steak one night and it was really messy and filled with onions! and it was 9$!! I just don't see myself going unless I really run out of options. Staff is very nice though and I always feel so bad whenever I go in and never get anything!

Clean, quick, well located, inexpensive, almost healthy food! Tried the steak épicé. Liked the bread, crispy and thin, the steak was juicy and yummy too. Salad are recommended. I was in a hurry did not try one. Also seems to have gluten free options (spotted a flourless brownie!) Inside is spacious there is outdoor sitting too. Convenient for workday noons !

We arrived in Montreal around lunch time and as our hotel did not have a restaurant we set out to search the area around our hotel for a place to eat. We saw a lot of Indian and Chinese restaurants but I was in the mood for a sandwich. We found Il Panino Cafe Mediterrano a few blocks from out hotel. It was just what I was looking for. A fresh pressed panino filled with Italian meats and cheeses with a salad on the side. They also have really good coffee. The young lady behind the counter was fast and courteous and the sandwich she made me hit the spot. If I lived or worked in the area I could see myself going back to eat there again.

A lot of variety of sandwiches, side salads, desserts, pastries, drinks (hot and cold). Good taste. Super location (right in the concordia downtown campus). My to-go place for a quick lunch on my busy work/study days. Maybe a little bit over pricey. You get choice of water bottle, coffee or tea when you order the sandwich+2 salads combo (13$+tax). There is no other combo with a beverage included. I wish there were more option with beverages with salad/sandwich meal option (like iced coffee etc)

So it's nice to have a salad/sandwich place close to a university. They also serve 1-2 types of soup and coffee. There are usually 6-8 different kinds of salad and various sandwiches, with something for anyone with any food allergies/diet. What brings this place down to 3 stars is that the salads are almost always soggy and the sandwiches are rarely, if ever, fresh and always on the oily side. So it's good for a quick lunch on the go; but there's so much potential for it to be much much better...

This panini-specialized joint presents a huge selection of paninis at reasonably quick service with a short-handed selection of coffee (despite considering themselves a coffee place). The place is fairly spacious with nice solid tables and seating. The lighting was somewhat dim but what bothered me were the prices. 8$ for a god damn panini? 5.50$ for a stupid salad? Does it come with free songs on ITunes? Admittedly they do taste good but not 8$ good. Complete and utter rip off. Especially for a place that doesn't make the paninis on the spot and just refrigerates them all in the beginning of the day..

This is a sweet sandwich place close to school. They have Panini's, flat breads and wraps available with many different ingredients. I have now tried two Panini's (Le Di Parma & Le Campignard) and 2 flat bread sandwich's (Le Paysano &Vegano) and they were all awesome. They also have a wide selection of salads to accompany your sandwich. I've tried the greek, quinoa, sobe noodles with soya sauce and a pesto penne pasta salads and have zero complaints, they were all delicious and a perfect fit with my sandwich. Everyone that works here are super nice and helpful with my questions. They also have an espresso machine and make very good lattes. The décor is very white and neon green, they have lots of tables crammed into a small space but it is a good place to enjoy a good sandwich and get some homework done at the same time along with many other students. I will definitely be back. :)

Was craving a plain ham and cheese panini and they were able to accommodate, although at first they seemed hesitant. I guess they wanted to push whatever they had on display. The sandwiches and salads they have on display didn't really look too appealing to me, plus they didn't seem to have a whole lot of options. Overall the panini was ok. Probably won't be back.

The former Sushiman is no longer at this address, but the lovely modern space that it was in is now the second location of il Panino cafe. They just opened last week and were sampling some of their baked goods and delicious espresso 'frappuccino' (with real espresso it seems). I tried 2 mouthfuls of brownie (5 stars for this treat - and house made), a snippet of oatmeal and fruit galette (biscuit of sorts), plus what I believe was a chocolate chunk muffin (the two latter may be delivered unbaked and then baked onsite). All the samples were a nice touch to a newly opened place. I heard their Panini sandwiches are the highlight, but I had already eaten lunch so for 6.95 I'll let you know another time. The service was attentive and there was a nice vibe to accompany the modern decor and high ceilings. I hope they use their niche and keep up the freshness and service since many students and other patrons are needed to keep the space warmed up since if empty this place would feel just that...empty.

The paninis are great but literally all of the salad options are terrible. Just get the panini.

Sweet place next to school. Good for a super quick grab during your break and their paninis are much better than Tim Hortons so if you feel like having one this is what I recommend! They also have a variety of salads :)
