Some of the best bread I have had. Some friends and I came to go hiking and we stopped by this nice bakery because it had great reviews. THEY DO NOT LIE! met with amazing people and amazing food. HIGHLY recommend!!! If you're in the Schenectady area this is a MUST!
Take a walk into a bakery of the past. A firm holder of Italian heritage that is Schenectadys Italian district. Home made bakery items, fantastic olive, tomato pie and tasty large cupcakes.
While this place is treasured by locals and a key part of the little Italy region in Schenectady it clearly hasn’t made any investments in building maintenance and modernization which makes you feel like getting in and out or not going at all. The bread is good but expensive. The service is prompt and friendly. The groceries are rare and high quality but sparse.
Buying your pizza since I was a kid. Best around. Disappointed on cupcakes. Bought 2 for $12 and they were stale. Not up to your standards. Won't buy again.
Excellent tomato pie!! Very friendly and helpful service too!!
Such a rustic little neighborhood gem. Fresh bread daily from their own oven. Get yolo loaf, cupcake, pizza slice, cannoli, slice of cake or cold cut sandwich to go. they also have tomato sauce jars, sausage and cheese by the pound. It's beloved by the locals since 1914.

One of the worst Chicken Picatta dishes Ive ever had.
A hidden gem in the "Little Italy" of Schenectady. Stopped in for a late lunch as we were getting back on the road heading back to Boston.
Menu is short and sweet but whatever we ordered was excellent! Very fresh, flavorful and authentic. The Parm fries with the eggplant sandwich was amazing. They use their own fresh baked bread and I could not resist buying a loaf from their bakery next door.
They have daily specials which are highly recommended. Tried their drinks and pleasantly - it was the right amount of sour, not sweetened - loved it!

Been coming here since I was a baby. The best bread in the world and the aged provolone is the sharpest so yummy ?

The sausage and peppers on the tomato pie was delicious, one slice was a little soggy on bottom but not so bad it needed replacing. Was disappointed by the pasta alla pomodoro and the meatballs. The meatballs were sitting in a pool of greasy red water that I’m guessing was supposed to be sauce, and the pasta was about the same with actual sauce on top. If you’ve eaten at a malls food court then you know the quality, that’s what these two dishes reminded me of. The lasagna was great, I definitely recommend the dish. It’s a good sized portion with plenty of meat, cheese, and flavor. The bakery side was also a bit disappointing compared to other Italian bakery’s I’ve visited due to lack of selection. I was told they were sold out of other pastries at the time so perhaps I just came at the wrong time. I was able to get a couple cannoli, a slice of lemon lime cheesecake, a pack of assorted Italian cookies, and a muffaletta sandwich. All were delicious and satisfying. The staff was friendly and helpful on both the restaurant and and bakery side. I’d recommend coming in for breakfast or an early lunch as the dinner menu is over priced for what you get.
