I've been coming to this bakery for at least 20+ years and it's always a treat. Whether getting a slice of their real Italian pizza or a cannoli or some bread/rolls or ordering a cake - you won't go wrong. Huge selection of Italian cookies and pastries as well as most other things that are baked. The biggest issue is once you get something here, no other place will ever be as good.

What a surprise find! I was excited to try the Arancini and I was so glad we did. They were better than most in the Chicago area with lots of filling in a couple of peas. I would've like more peas I was told they are fresh fried every morning And heated up great when I got home. I added a little extra Romano cheese, but that's just me as a cheese lover. Also wanted to try the.Sfincuni it was a little different and salty. I thought the cookies were pretty expensive at $17 a pound so I didn't get any but I also got a.zepolli and it was very good. Ate them all also fast but I didn't get a picture.

Wonderful family owned bakery with weekday lunch options. In a strip mall with other choices to dine in and then stop here and grab a dessert or some bread for dinner. The staff were nice and the insides felt like a traditional Italian joint. Everything I had was fresh and delicious! I didn't bother waiting for dinner and just finished it when I got home. Italian Sub: a grinder with salami, cheese, lettuce, tomato on a crunchy and soft roll. Great for lunch. They make it out back, so let them know you want one while being tempted on your dessert options. Cannoli with custard : crunchy with a nice creamy filling. It was great, but lost out to its brother. Cannoli Sfogliatelle: this was a religious experience for me. The layers were crisp and crunchy. ASMR worthy. The filling was absolutely delightful. You need, not must, need to try one of these. If you don't like it, I'll question your culinary taste. :p

I was in Chicago last week and stopped in to the Sicilian bakery and have to say it was amazing. The arrancini and cannolis was the best I have ever had. I am a Sicilian and grew up in Brooklyn.
We walked in when they were already closed and we were still able to walk out with lemon knots and the best sfogliatelle I’ve ever had !
