About Pronto Italian Sandwiches

Pronto Italian Sandwiches in Hinsdale is built around schiacciata, a traditional Tuscan bread. The kitchen makes the bread from scratch every day and hand presses each loaf in house. Most sandwiches here are built on that bread, so it is the first thing people notice.

The shop started with a trip. Peter and Dana Burdi went to Milan, Italy, to visit their daughter Isabella while she was studying abroad. They tasted schiacciata there and came home wanting to share that same bread and flavor with their own community. Pronto grew out of their love of authentic Italian food and the simple pleasure of sharing a good sandwich.

The menu uses Italian meats, cheeses, and spreads, with a mix of local and imported ingredients. Popular picks include the Scorsese, which pairs mortadella and burrata with pistachio cream, arugula, and hot honey. The Pacino has prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, and truffle pecorino cream. The Tarantino is roasted turkey with aged white cheddar, pickled red onion, avocado, and garlic aioli. There are also salads, soups, and a smaller sandwich for kids.

Chef Saul Maya leads the kitchen and brings a focus on bold but balanced flavors and careful layering. Sauces and spreads are made in house, and each sandwich is made to order. The family's aim is simple: good food that brings people together, whether at a work lunch, a celebration, or an ordinary weekday.
