This venue is closed.

Before New York was a town with a panino in every presser, there was ’ino, the first and still the best of all the tiny Italian sandwich bars that have spread like El Bulli foam in recent years. The owners have that whole Italian between-meals-snacking aesthetic down to a tee. Their panini and bruschette are little masterpieces of bold flavor and superb texture, and the tiny room is a lovely place to linger over a carafe or bottle of wine provided you’re able to commandeer a seat.

Sat.—.Sun, 9 a.m.—4 p.m.

Panino with soppressata, fontina, and rucola, $11; panino with rucola, sun-dried tomatoes, onion, and fontina, $11; nutella panino, $6
