About Cortina’s Orange
Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
Tried the 6” meatball sub, and it did not disappoint. The baguette was perfectly crisp outside, soft inside, holding up well to the rich marinara and melted mozzarella. The meatballs were tender, flavorful, and packed with classic Italian seasoning. Paired with a bag of Maui onion chips, it was a simple yet satisfying meal. Cortina’s nails quality, from the food to the efficient service. Whether grabbing a quick bite or stocking up at the Italian market, it’s a go-to spot.
Only recommendation would be to have a dedicated person for online/take out orders during the busy lunch. I know that it’s recently switch sides but I still had to wait a few minutes to flag someone down just to pull my sandwich I could see sitting on the shelf.
sadly they close early but whenever I do get the chance to stop by, I always enjoy it. the cross fit is perfect, one of the best sandwiches I’ve had. they have indoor and outdoor seating, which I can guarantee that you will be comfortable with either or!
Absolutely delicious sandwiches, I have tried a couple of different ones and each has been great. Can get very busy around noon but it is well worth the wait. Service is fast and friendly.
My spouse Sicilian and said the Italian sub from the connected pizza and sandwich light lunches was the best she has tasted in OC since moving here 2 years ago. The Deli had a nice supply of deli meats and pasta. It was busy and vibe was friendly and seemed like a local hang out too. Good sign. We live in SOC but worth the drive
