Caution: you are entering a culinary zone that is not for the meek of heart. You may encounter uncontrollable drooling; your socks may spontaneously come off; you may display wild exuberant fits of indescribable pleasure and make uncivilized guttural utterances of ecstasy. Welcome. We’re Your Panini. My Panini. Hot pressed sandwiches, fresh salads & more. Free Wifi hotspot • Lunch • Dinner • Catering • Order ahead. I want greatness.
Search the web – if you still own a dictionary, it should also work – and you’ll find that “Panini” was a Sanskrit grammarian who lived and wrote in India around 400 BC. File that away as a little factoid you can use someday at a cocktail party. If you search more deeply, in addition to countless bargains, user groups and stories about celebrities, you’ll find that “Panini” (pronounced: pah-NEE-nee) is the plural form of the Italian word for sandwich (panino), which we use to describe a singular sandwich made from a small loaf of bread, stuffed with vegetables, cheese and meat, and cooked in a unique grill that presses the sandwich to a ridged, crisp perfection.
At My Panini, we have spent years researching (cooking and eating, cooking and eating, etc.) to perfect Your Panini. The similarity of My Panini and Their Panini ends with the definition. We use only the finest, freshest ingredients. The recipes have been tested and re-tested (until they were applauded) to find the perfect combinations of taste and in-your-mouth attitude. Our ciabatta is specially baked to crunch on the outside, yet be soft in the center when pressed so that each bite melts into a chorus of flavors. Shoot, even the to-go packaging is unique (the special quilting keeps Your Panini hot). For lunch or dinner – whether you like it piled on (try our Steakanini™) – or low cal (try our Bikini Panini™) – or spicy hot (try our Chicken Fajita) – or sophisticated knife and fork entrees (wait ‘til you see My Panini “Naked”) or simple (try our not-so-simple Ultimate Grilled Cheese) – or really huge, but light (like our incredibly Fresh Salads), when you eat My Panini, we expect that it will be the Best Panini that you have ever tasted (hot inside and out, too) and that My Panini will be Your Favorite Panini.

The My Panini Hybrid is charged and waiting to deliver My Panini Catering to your event or meeting. Grab a Catering Menu before you leave.
My Panini is a member of the Green Restaurant Association and proudly practices green resetaurant standards for you, me and the planet.
Well, not exactly. We think it’s actually all about the food. Like the really awesome panini we press into perfect combinations of taste and in-your-mouth attitude using our unique panini grill that presses each sandwich to a ridged, crisp perfection. And, of course, it’s also about just how easy it is to love My Panini – or Your Panini, for that matter.
But, since you asked about us: here’s the back-story: Like some restaurants, we too have a single syllable owner/founder, but that’s where the similarity ends. This is not his story. This is the story of the quest to fulfill the mission of creating “the best panini on the planet, served with uniquely personalized service.”
In order to know for sure that one is creating the best panini on the planet, one must eat every panino (singular in Italian for panini) already offered on the planet. Some were grilled, toasted, or worse – microwaved. Not PRESSed, the way a panini is supposed to be. Others were not crisp on the outside – or moist and delicious on the inside. Some were warm on the outside, and lukewarm on the inside, made with frozen, inferior ingredients, not prepared with the freshest ingredients in imaginative and flavorful combinations – you got it – the way a panini is supposed to be.
So, the quest for the best panini on the planet continued, this time into test kitchens and focus groups who raved – and rated My Panini to be the best panini on their personal planet. It’s the way a panini is supposed to be: imPRESSive. My Panini, the restaurant, has been built from the ground up with every aspect of your experience considered - from what you see when you enter, to the greeting you hear from our people – from the presentation of our food to the temperature, taste and texture of each bite – and especially the things you might not even notice like our systems and training, our commitment to the community and our environment – every aspect, did we mention free wifi? – designed so My Panini is your favorite panini.
My Panini and The Planet: Offering, as we do, the best panini on the planet comes with responsibility to the planet. My Panini is the very first restaurant in Georgia to be certified by the Green Restaurant Association. For My Panini, your community, and the planet, this means:
Our energy-efficient, hybrid Paninimobile, can deliver Hot Panini, while helping to keep the planet cool – learn more in our faq’s
Our menus are printed on recycled, chlorine-free paper, with soy and vegetable-based inks – learn more in our faq’s
We use non-disposable plates and flatware (even in catering – imagine a real plate), except in “To-Go” orders, where biodegradable flatware, containers and bags are used. Even the plastic cups are biodegradable. They’re made from corn (there’s nothing corny about caring about the earth). And, get this – our dessert to-go containers are made from compostable sugar cane fiber – 100% biodegradable. Sure, we could have gotten some really “cute” stuff to put all this great food in, but the cute stuff doesn’t look so cool in a landfill – learn more in our faq’s
Super Cool Stuff: The tee-shirts we sell are made from 100% – really comfy, organic cotton, printed with water-based inks, sweat-shop free, pesticide-free, and totally sustainable – as in you can wear them over and over and over – learn more in our faq’s
My Panini and Your Community: Things sure have changed from the old adage about “nice guys finishing last.” In today’s world, we choose to believe that nice guys finish close enough to the top that we can justify our desire to do it the nice guy way. But our committment goes way beyond that. We really do care deeply about our community and people. It is part of our culture. It is absolutely fundamental. It's also good business.
My Panini offers on-going support to Samaritan House of Atlanta, a nonprofit 501(C)3 organization that supports self-sufficiency for Atlanta’s homeless individuals.
Community Cause Days: Write to us about your cause. We offer periodic Community Cause Days, and your organization could be a beneficiary. We will also consider donations for your charity or auction, or appearances by our own, beloved, Beef Steakanini or Bikini Panini characters.
Our employees are paid competitive wages, offered remarkable benefits and treated with respect and fairness (the same way we expect them to treat you). They share our values for delicious food, uniquely personalized service and a commitment to community.
To life. To the web, to Panini cam, to a parade near you, about town, and, of course, to My Panini. You never know where these two “characters” might turn up. We can’t wait to introduce you to Bikini Panini (our soon-to-be-famous low-cal wraps), and to Beef Steakanini, her superhero sidekick, who just happens to our signature Steakanini.

At My Panini we make the Best Panini on the planet, with uniquely personalized service. If that sounds interesting to you, we'll teach you how to do these things, and more. At My Panini we press sandwiches. In fact, we talk about our panini as being Hot Off the Press. We will Impress our customers with personalized service. So, our team is made up of Impressers. Want to know more about becoming an Impresser?
There are several different tasks required by My Panini "ImPRESSers": pressing sandwiches, taking customer orders, taking payment, making salads, expediting orders and cleaning are among these tasks.

We'll teach you how to do all of these tasks and we'll succeed together, if you're willing to learn.
