Stefano's Golden Baked Hams

Absolutely gorgeous food. I got the Juliet panini, which had a mild sweet and salty flavor with lots of varied ingredients. I also got the spring salad, which was so beautiful and yummy! 110% recommend this place for a high-end lunch.

Can we just say how lucky we are that Stefano's is only a 5 min drive from our office! We love the assortment of yummy gourmet salads and sandwiches! Our favorites include the warm gnocci salad with the amazingly delicious balsamic chicken and pillowy soft homemade gnocci! We also love the Stefano's Salad and yummy lemon torte for dessert. We love that depending on your appetite you can get a small salad or a larger portion for days you're feeling super hungry. Stefano's is a treasured family owned and operated business and you get that feeling as soon as you walk in their doors.

One of my favourite sandwich places in Orange County, and trust me, that's saying a lot. Besides ham, these guys specialize in paninis, and literally nobody does them better. Most of their sandwiches pair perfectly with their homemade soups. The Bostonian is my go to sandwich, and I take that down with their fabulous tomato bisque. Sure it will knock a week off your life, but let's be honest, you don't want to be around for that last week anyway. These guys had another location in South County that recently closed, and I have no idea how that could have happened. Probably a bad lease, a bad location, or just poor marketing. These guys should have 10 locations by now. 100% recommend this place.

The original golden baked ham panini is delicious!

They also seasonally offer an incredible lobster roll, only available on Fridays.

This is a small business where I always back when I’m craving a panini (usually once or twice a year) and I love that my panini alway taste the same, I went back yesterday and they have more tables outside. The cashier was so nice and when I arrive to the store to pick it up my food was ready…. Always order the same for the past 6 years: Burguinni with trip tip instead of the usually meat! Just perfect!
