Piadina — Restaurant in Tustin

I was very excited to find such a specifically regional Italian specialty here in OC but unfortunately I was disappointed with the overall experience.

The piadina flat bread is definitely the highlight of the menu. It is flaky, crispy, and light, the way it should be.

Their selection of authentic Italian ingredients is great, I just wish the sandwiches were filled a little more generously. Especially the simpler sandwiches like the Alpi definitely could’ve used more meat.

The non-Italian sandwiches should be avoided. There’s nothing special about those ingredients except the bread.

If you’re going here, I would recommend getting something with the Piadina bread. We got the “California” piadina and it very lackluster in terms of flavor and...

first time going and i was pretty excited to try it out. Got a few recs but decided to go with Alpi. smoked prosciutto smoke mozzarella arugula and tomato. I wish i took a photo of what i got legit 3 small strands of cheese on each side looked like shredded mozzarella from ralph’s. I asked if i could get a little more bc it was so absurd how little cheese was on it and they said it was extra charge. If it was like at least a slice of cheese i wouldn’t have bothered but it didn’t even add up to a slice of cheese. And sauce is also extra charge. Idek what the sauce tastes like. I got the sauce but not worth imo. just overall i’d rather go to another sandwich place or even another italian...

However, tonight I went with my family and we got there about 7:40 pm, we saw it closed at 8:00 pm, but thought it would still be ok. We go in and order, start eating etc. At 8:00 pm on the dot, one of the employees comes over to us and said they close at 8:00 and basically that we needed to leave. We probably would have been finished in about 5-10 minutes. But no, we had to go outside in the cold and finish our meal. We could understand if we came in at 8:00 pm, but we came in before and were nearly finished when they kicked us out. I’ve never seen a restaurant do...
