A Story of Childhood Friends
When ORTO was created, it was the brainchild of two long-time friends: Antoine and Benjamin. The founders of this "Italian sandwich shop" share the same roots and both have been nurtured by the flavors of paninis with mortadella. Indeed, their grandparents arrived from Italy in the 50s to settle in the suburbs of Toulouse.

They grew up together, and that's how years later, ORTO was born. A beautiful tribute to friendship and the delights of the sandwich. One thing's for sure, the capital of Gaul is pretty lucky that these two met, because their paninis are to die for.
As for the proportions, a classic panino is already quite filling... But if you want it even more loaded, you can ask the chef to add all the toppings that make you happy! We'll give you more information on the date and address as soon as possible...
