Greenhouse Kitchen Italian Restaurant — Restaurant in Boston

If you’re looking for a solid Panini spot in Boston, you have to try Greenhouse Kitchen!

I ordered it in for delivery. I’ve ordered in from Greenhouse Kitchen many times. They have a solid selection of Paninis, Subs, Salads, Wraps, Pizza, Risotto, and Fresh Pastas. There is truly something on the menu for everyone!

Their appetizer menu could certainly use a refresh and more options. That is the one part of the menu lacking in selection and variety.

My two favorites here are the Homemade Meatball Parmigiana & the Prosciutto Panini. The portion sizes are HUGE. One sub or panini is bigger than a footlong! You can easily split a sandwich with others- or save it for another meal. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the portion size.

We typically order a Meatball Parmigiana & The Prosciutto Panini and split both. You will certainly be full after a meal here! The Paninis are toasted perfectly & the bread doesn’t turn soggy, like many places.

The Meatball sub was perfect. The sauce was just right, not too acidic. The gooey, melty cheese was just right. One of my all-time favorites from here.

The Prosciutto Panini is also one of my favorites. However, I noticed they changed the prosciutto since last year. It is overly salty and not the same quality prosciutto they once served. It’s also very tough, which should not be the case. Quality prosciutto is tender and melts in your mouth. This is why I had to knock off a star. Otherwise, they’d get a solid five from me.

We ended up enjoying the Meatball sub and tossed the Prosciutto Panini. It was just way too salty and the new prosciutto they’re using is why. I hope they’ll go back to what they once used. It won’t stop me from returning, I just wouldn’t order it again.

Everything is well packed and delivered piping hot. The bread is always toasted perfectly and holds up to the ingredients. The Meatball sub was perfect, no soggy bread.

If you’re looking for a solid Panini/Hot Sub spot with massive portions, be sure to give this place a try! I wonder how they even do it for the reasonable price charged! One of...

Coming from an Uber driver, this is a very unorganised kitchen, that is clearly overwhelmed operating Doordash, Uber, Grubhub. When I first went into the restaurant I was ignored for 10min and when I was finally acknowledged by a staff member, they snapped at me saying "I'll get to you when I'm ready!" Then another couple of minutes went by, and they finally serve me, and they asked me for the name. I gave the order name to them and he went to the warmer unit and grabbed my order. Long story short due to terrible communication I waited 15 mins for food that was completed and just sitting there. I laughed and said "you can't be serious", the worker proceeded to not let go of the bag. I told the staff I didn't want to have this argument and he said "what's the problem" I responded with "I've stood here for 15 mins for food that was completed .... this damages the customer expirence due to unnecessary wait time". To this he had no response but a blank face and I had to rip the order from the workers hand!! Completly unprofessional and could have beeen easily dealt with with appropriate communication between driver and restaurant. Done Uber for years happy to wait if there needs more time, but to ignore people and be treated with this response when it's their fault was just...

I really really wanted to like this place! It's a small place, very local. The people are super nice and friendly. I asked a few questions about the food (is there any meat in the arancini? The answer is no) and the lady behind the counter answered them patiently. We also requested no plastic cutlery or plastic bag, and they happily complied.

However, the food was just okay. I don't know about authenticity, but the risotto was nice-ish, though a tad salty. I liked the veggies in it - it had broccoli, tomato, mushroom and spinach. The arancini was not the best I've had - the outer covering was really hard. The kind that gets stuck in your teeth. The cheese inside was a little weird too. The bright side was their marinara sauce, tasty. Wish they had given more of it.

Will I try them again? Yes, I'll give it another shot. Maybe next time, I'll order the chicken parmigiana, the other reviews...
