Chicken Parmesan sandwich is outrageous!!!!. The best I have ever had. Reasonable price for what you get. Clean restaurant, friendly staff... Cannoli's are amazing but expensive. It's not like back in the 70's when getting the large cannoli's bakers dozen for $25.00 existed.... Some things aren't like it use to be... They have what looks like would be other amazing desserts, but I just haven't tried them yet. Things to look forward to in my next visit... Thanks for the amazing food and service...

The first bite sent me back to the Bronx and the little Italian bakery my Nana used to take me to every week. The flag cakes were sooo moist and sweet while the Napoleon was flakey and filled generously between each layer. The lobster tail was HUGE! This will be my go-to when I need a little taste of childhood ❤️

This is exactly what I needed to host my Formula One Italian Grand Prix breakfast watch party. We purchased an assortment of house-made baked goods and pounded some gelato while we were at it. It’s pretty genius, having the savory right next to the sweet. The Sicilian Butcher next door is enticing, and we’ll have to pay them a visit sometime. You really feel like you’re in Italy here, with the bald general manager/mafia boss parking his pristine new Porsche in the “15 Minute Parking” spot right out front. Alpha/jerk move, for sure, but I wasn’t gonna be the one to tell him so. 5/5 for immersion and for having a top notch espresso machine.

I door dashed The Sicilian Baker for a few desserts — the Napoleon, Tiramisu, Vanilla Lobster Tail, and Nutella Lobster Tail — and every single bite was incredible. The Napoleon was perfectly layered, with crisp pastry and silky custard that wasn’t overly sweet. The Tiramisu had that ideal balance of espresso and mascarpone, light but rich at the same time. Both Lobster Tails were standouts: the vanilla was flaky and creamy with a delicate hint of sweetness, while the Nutella version was pure indulgence, with a generous filling and just the right amount of chocolate-hazelnut flavor. Everything tasted fresh and beautifully made, and the portions were generous without feeling heavy. If you love classic Italian pastries with a modern touch, this spot is a must!
