Amelia’s Panini & Espresso (Main St.)

By in 16: Santa Monica, Favorite Food Entries

My friend recommended this Panini place on Main, I always passed by it but thought it was part of the Motel next door (it’s not, but you can park there). This cafe is run by a team of husband and wife and I was told that they only make a certain amount of sandwiches, once they’re sold out it’s all gone.

Too bad I ate way too slow, by the end the pesto sauce sogged the bread. They have two other kinds of sandwiches: roasted turkey and beef.

The coffee is very good too! They also sell cheese and yummy looking desserts and bakery. Finally, found a REAL good place on Main st.!

    Looks so fresh!
    How did you manage to eat so slow that the bread actually got soggy by the end? ^^;; Too much sauce?

    I was reading newspaper while eating (bad habit ^^;;)

    I love Amelia’s so much. May I suggest the cold prosciutto as well as the grilled turkey sandwich next time? Also their teas are lovely.

    But the real hidden gem is the home-made soup! So wonderful.

    Thanks Journey for the recommendation, I just went to try your suggestion today, it’s absolutely wonderful. I can’t decide which I like more, the proscuitto or the grilled salami… the ingredients they used are so fresh and good.
