| - I've been hearing praise for Postino's since I moved to Phoenix a year ago... Finally, today, I was able to go check it out myself!
This wasn't the first time I've attempted to go to Postino's. If you get there late, there's too much of a wait to enjoy it for a workday lunch... but my two coworkers and I arrived around 11:30 today and had no problem getting a lovely table outside in the sunshine! Our service was friendly and quick, and our glasses were never empty. I've heard about the legendary bruschetta, but today, I opted for a turkey panini. (I hear that their happy hour is a pretty bomb deal on the bruschetta. It's regularly $14 for 4 pieces, but at happy hour, you can pay $20 for the same 4-pieces AND get a bottle of wine... so I imagine I'll be coming back to try it then!) That said, I was really happy with my selection! I should've had a salad with it, because once I saw the greens, they looked really good... but I went with the chips. They were a little greasier than I care for, but still very good! The sandwich was fantastic!!! I had mine on focaccia and it was delicious - melty, warm and the pesto really gave it a good finish!
The price was reasonable for a lunch out (around $13), and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. I'll definitely be back here again soon! (Preferably for their happy hour... it looked like they had a great wine selection too!)
