Difficult to give an accurate rating until I try some of there other dishes. I had the Portobello Mushroom Ravioli for dinner. I would give it a C+ based on having the same entree at Italian restaurants in La Jolla CA and NYC NY. Yes I understand this is Mesa Arizona and not a thriving big city with higher expectations. My first impression is that this establishment does not cater to the discerning foodie of Italian cuisine. The typical clientele are very casually dressed locals and seniors. My wife and I felt like one of the younger couples at Pacino's
My wife had the chicken Marsala and enjoyed it. She gave it a B for flavor and presentation. next time we visit Pacino's i will try the Chicken Cacciatore or Marsala and see.
Overall, I would say panino's is worth a try. The atmosphere is pleasant and they had a live band playing 60s music ( Van Morrison and cat Stevens) The servers are pleasant and accommodating which is important for customers experiences.
All and all it was a pleasant evening dinner with my wife, which is most important.
