I am so glad I found this place!!! I got a fresh loaf of French bread, some deli meat and Cannolis. Everything is so fresh. Cannolis had a crispy shell when you bite into it. Great service too. I will be a regular at this place.

Great place to pick up some fresh baked goods We are in love with the pizza dough and the best pizza sauce around can be found here. We always try and get a cannoli or ten when they are available as well...

Great food and baked goods. Debit went down while I was there they kept accepting customers which frustrated me because they would have their order and have no way to pay. They took down my girlfriend's credit card number on a piece of paper(after much unorganized scrambling) and continued to take everyone else's personal information on the same piece of paper allowing anyone to see her credit card number. There was no offer of any type of compensation whether it be one cookie or a crumb for the half an hour I had to wait while my hot food got cold, they said this has happened before they should

Bought a meat lasagna and some garlic bread. About $20 for both. Service was fantastic. Really nice people. Was an easy yet spectacular meal. The place isn't as big as it looks from the outside, but they have quite the selection by request.

Stopped in here on a beautiful fall morning in September. The smell of fresh bread and cured deli meats was in the air when we opened the car door. Fantastic spot to get some fresh bread, pastas and baked goods. We opted for the nitrate free deli ham. I highly recommend a visit.

I've haven't been there since the new owners took over and must say the bread isn't the same as before. They loafs aren't as substantial. It's almost like they changed the dough...and not for the better. The calabrese loaf is all air ! The white dinner / hamburger rolls are not the same. Again, they have no substance. Light and airy like commercial "no name" bread. Very disappointed and will be looking for another baker. The new owner seems nice though. But I don't think their expertise is Italian Deli / bakery. Perhaps they should change their focus to something they have experience with.
