Such a fun experience from start to finish.

Still smiling after today.
Having America's Best Restaurants inside Panos today honestly meant a lot to our family and staff. J Russell spent the day filming our BLT Benedict, Greek Buster Combo, Chicken Bruschetta Pasta and even our bread pudding with salted caramel gelato iced coffee.

We’re grateful for every customer who’s supported us through the years and helped make Panos part of Erie tradition.

-Panos Feature of the week-
Taco Salad — $11.95

Our golden, house-fried tortilla bowl is the edible vessel you didn't know you needed — shatteringly crisp on the edges, sturdy enough to hold everything that comes next.

Piled high with seasoned taco beef, cool shredded iceberg, fresh diced tomatoes and onions, sliced pickled jalapeños for a touch of heat, and a generous snowfall of cheddar jack. Plus house salsa and cool sour cream on the side.

Pictured with a side of our homemade a chicken tortilla soup topped with tomatoes and crispy tortilla strips.

Big flavor. Zero fuss. All in.

After 51 years, our Ellie is hanging up her apron. 💛

Eleanor Mello has been a part of the Panos family since 1975 — serving three generations of our family, and countless generations of yours. She has been more than an employee. She has been an anchor, a constant, and a local legend. If you've ever sat in her section, you know exactly what we mean.

Eleanor has a gift. No matter what kind of day she was having, she showed up with a smile, a laugh, and a warmth that filled the entire dining room. She treated every single person who walked through our doors like they mattered — because to her, they do. If you've ever heard her laugh echo across the restaurant, you already know — that sound is Panos.

This Friday, May 8th, is her last day. She will be here from 10am to 2pm, and we are inviting everyone who knows and loves her to stop by, give her a hug, and wish her well as she steps into a beautiful new chapter spending time with the family she adores.

We will miss her more than words can say. But don't worry — Ellie isn't going far. She'll always have a home here.

Ellie, thank you. From our family, from your regulars, from everyone whose day you made a little brighter — thank you. 🙏

📍 Panos Restaurant
📅 Friday, May 8th | 10am – 2pm
Come say goodbye. She's earned every bit of the love.
