PIADINA Irvine - Irvine, California

Piadina's food is so delicious and the owner was very friendly and helpful! The food looked so good I forgot to take photos before we started eating.

I loved how the sandwiches and flatbread were on display and they also make pasta and lasagna as well.

Their froccocia was amazing and it was probably the best tuna sandwich I've ever had. Thanks so much! I definitely will be back. Thank you.

I can't believe it took me so long to try this place. Initially, I noticed these gorgeous women exiting with these flatboxes in hand. I was a bit apprehensive at first, but the staff reassured first-timers buy pointing out popular items (highlighted in yellow on the menu). I went with the California as my initiation and it was a safe choice: Roasted Chicken, mozzarella, arugula, tomato, and basil pesto wrapped in a warm flat bread. Quality ingredients, simple yet tasty, and executed quickly. The interior is cool and quaint with about 4-5 tables of 4. Will be back to try their Italian Classics.

To the owners you need to reconsider the prices & the selling of your sauce add on. A 1oz cup of sauce for almost a dollar is absolutely crazy. I understand prices have gone up but frankly charging your costumers emore money for a sandwich that is pretty dry is not a good business practice. Hope you find this review helpful.

We ordered for pickup and our food was ready in 15 minutes. When we got there it was hot and ready. I got the tuna piadina and it was delicious!! The arugula and tomato were fresh so it paired the tuna exquisitely. First time here and definitely not my last !

Piadina is a fresh, tasty Italian flatbread sandwich shop in the Crossroads Irvine shopping center just off of Barranca. They have a menu of over a dozen craft sandwiches that a perfect "just right" size for lunch. On my visit, I tried the Alpi, with hearty smoked prosciutto, mozzarella, fresh arugula, and tomato. They compliment perfectly with the Batch all-sugar soda too. Salads or flatbread pizza options available. Vegetarian options are also available. Friendly staff and made to order this is a perfect place for lunch during your work week, or makes a great place to take a break if you are riding along the San Diego Creek Trail. Catering and online orders are also available.

Great food quick service and the food is delicious. A bit pricey but thats my opinion.

They have a snozzberry soda hahaha! Look at the posted images.

The most disappointing thing is the rewards program requires a credit card to sign up for the free first sandwich.

Recommended if you are interested in trying something new.

I feel silly saying that I only just discovered this place, because it's been open for awhile, but it IS a solid restaurant. The sandwich/panini style bread is absolutely delicious!! Think, tortilla made to order, but slightly thicker and every bit as yummy!! I had a #9 Verona which was amazing along with a small side salad with Cesar dressing. Fantastic, perfectly prepared and the ginger ale "craft" soda was killer!! Super ginger!! I'll be coming back to try the breakfast sandwich soon!!

Update: so, I finally got back around to making it in for one of Piadina's egg style flat bread sandwiches today. I think I'm beginning to fall hard for Piadina!! First off, again I have to say I'm I little embarrassed that I'm only now discovering the goodness of this place, but I witnessed half a dozen other people who were eagerly awaiting the doors opening right at 11am sharp!! They know what's up! I had the Mattina, which contains scrambled egg, smoked turkey, fresh spinach, and mozzarella cheese. OMG!! And that Piadina freshly made dough, toasted to perfection. I really was in my happy place. That's only half of the story, I also tried for the first time thier coffee from Italy, Illy. Holy moly!! I haven't had a coffee THAT good since my last trip to Europe. It was a beautiful medium roast, medium bodied coffee, so wonderful I felt transported to another part of the world. And to top it off, a small Hazel nut Perugina chocolate truffle!! I have to say it was one of the best mid morning breakfast/brunch meals I've had in a long time! I can't wait to come back and try a new selection on their menu. Cue the Bryan Adams, One night love affair, only this affair is going to continue on!! 💯🔥😎👍

Update: I visited again this last week because I HAD to try the new PIZZA Piadinas!!🍕🍕😋🤓💯🔥

Well, as usual I was so hungry and Alex the manager made their Tricolore pizza sound absolutely killer!! Now, I've already raved about the delicious dough that Piadina makes fresh daily. It really makes a HUGE difference. So, I ordered the Tricolore which has mozzarella, tomato, and pesto. It was melt in your mouth good. The pesto was really yummy. The radio was playing Everlasting Love and I could tell my affair with Piadina had just moved to the next level. I told Alex I began to imagine all of my favorite kinds of pizza, but now I was imagining all of that on this incredibly delicious Piadina flat bread. It was revelatory to say the least. Dare I say epiphany. 🤓😆 So, I had just gotten finished with my last final for the semester, I'm just totally in my happy place with pizza and then it hits me.....sweet!! I ask Alex, " hey, do you guys make a sweet Piadina, like Nutella and bananas or strawberries?" Alex says, "WE DO!!" It just is not on the menu as of yet!!! Whaaaaaa!!! So, sweet Piadina, Yes please!! It's called the Dulce, or sweet...Duh!! 😆 And it's freaking amazing!! I totally recommend it. It's the perfect amount of chocolate and bananas. It's warm, crunchy, chewy, and all good!! You WANT THIS!! Truly. Again you gotta ask for it because it's not on the menu....yet!! Tell them Stromboli sent you!! 🤓💕💖💕💗

Update: I came through with my mom again and had a wonderfully delicious meal!! I joined the "Thanks" app for restaurants and there was an awesome deal for 2 Piadina or Pizzadias, drinks, and a dessert, I HAD to come through!! It was amazing!! I highly recommend the app for it's rewards as well as the Piadina specials. Alex and his team are fantastic at delivering great tasting, quality dishes. So good, in fact, this time I was able to get photos of my Newport Piadina AND the incredibly tasty dessert Piadina, the Dulce with bananas and Nutella chocolate. Shut the front door!!!😆🎉🎊✨🤯💗💕💖👌🤓 Enjoy the photos!!

This is not a Piadina.

Owner need to Update your business profile to give guest experience correctly to your menu. The place is completely different from expected. Drove all the way here and would have gone to Tustin instead.
