Cortina's Italian Market

Marcus Oberlander

I am originally from New Jersey, and it is so hard to find an Italian Market in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. I was doing research on new restaurants, bakeries, and markets to try, and I came upon Cortina’s Italian Market. I happened to be in Anaheim, so I stopped there. The Good: They have a great selection of Italian canned goods, homemade sauces, deli options, baked goods (pastries and cookies), and bread. It reminded me of an Italian market I used to go to when I was younger. The cookies and cannolis had great flavor and they were fresh. The prices were reasonable for what I got. The Bad: Their parking lot is too small. I was lucky and found a parking space. I went on a weekday, but I can imagine how jammed it gets on the weekend. I rate all restaurants, bakeries, and markets by whether they are worth driving to in the future. I definitely think Cortina’s is worth a repeat visit, and I look forward to trying some more things the next time I am there.

A very popular Italian restaurant for the locals the locals in the area. There they're phillyy cheesesteak sandwich is one of the the tastiest I've tried. Their pizzas are thin crust and served in classic Italian style.The place gets pretty crowded during lunch, but the servers are very friendly. Highly recommended you order your food ahead of time either by phone or online. Otherwise it will take about 20 minutes for them to prepare your meal drain the busy lunchtime. There is also a deli market right beside the restaurant. Great place to look for Italian ingredients. Sadly, no espresso served 😞

Love Cortina's! Pizza, sandwiches and an awesome deli all in one. It has been a go to for a long time. The sandwiches are wonderful creations, best eaten fresh at the restaurant. The porchetta is delicious, the Cortina's special is filled with all the best italian meats and the peppers and sausages is spicy in all the right ways. We usually get a pizza with pepperoni, sausage and jalapenos, it's always perfect. I don't think I've ever had a bad pizza from Cortina's. Perfect crust, generously sauced and plenty of cheese and toppings. Finally, the deli is definitely one of my favorites! Well stocked with Italian staples, its wonderfully varied and has meats, cheeses, salads, and baked goods. There are also other things like homemade sausage, meatballs, sauces and dressings. What I love getting there as well is the pizza dough, fresh bread and fresh olive oil. You should absolutely stop by if you have the chance, everything there is worth it!

Hidden grocery store and restaurant. Very homey, authentic with good finds. A bit expensive compared with some other stores where you can find similar products , but okay for a quick stop.
