| - I had lunch here with a coworker who had been there before and recommended it. Neat concept, explained by many other reviewers so I won't rehash it.
The prices are reasonable, nothing over $9.95 on the menu unless you add extras. I ordered the Verdure which has Roasted Eggplant, Zucchini, Red & Yellow Peppers, Mozzarella Cheese, Pesto, Spinach.
My coworker ordered Pasta, the Ravioli Ricotta e Spinaci which is Ravioli With Spinach And Ricotta Filling, Tomato Sauce. His Pasta was made before my Panini, but only by a minute or two.
The Panini seemed a little on the small side, but was enough fill me up. The house salad was nothing special. Iceburg lettuce with shredded carrots and some tomatoes. The didn't ask about dressing, so I am assuming there is only the house dressing which is an Italian.
My Panini tasted OK, but it was not grilled long enough. There were light brown grill marks on the bread and the veggies inside were cold to luke warm and the mozzarella wasn't melted at all. I should have taken it back and had them grill it more, but since my coworker already had his meal I decided not to because he would probably be done with his meal by the time I got my sandwich re-grilled.
I probably will give Vapiano's one more try and get the pasta or pizza next time to see it is better. If you are heading here for a Panini, skip it and try somewhere else.
