Cannoli bar
Debbi P.

Best Italian Bakery!!! Cutest shop overall!!! Really yummy cookies, pastries and gelato, but it's the cannoli bar that really puts this bakery in a class by itself!! So many great fillings to get, including the classic cannoli stuffing. The s'more cannoli filling is my new favorite!!! Leave it to Chef Joey to have the best cannolis in town!!!! Excellent staff and service!!!

Sfogliatella yummy
karen k.

Fast service and good selection even at 430 pm! Tried the gelato ( salted caramel and orange) both delicious, but it was the lobster tail and Sfogliatella pastries that I love and can't find outside of Boston! We enjoyed outside on a nice afternoon. Want to come back for dinner some time soon to the sister restaurant.

Really good tiramisu! We did not have the best service, it was a busier night so I think that was why. Would recommend stopping here for dessert if you are in the area - they had lots of options!

Coffee menu

Lilly was great. Very friendly and very flexible with our order. Offered her recommendations of the honey nut macchiato. Very clean on the back side of the restaurant. Small tables for coffee and small pastries!

Definitely a sign to visit Sicily;)

Even though I was stuffed from lunch next door at the Sicilian Butcher, I couldn't leave without getting a gelato. My only regret was getting a single scoop. There was a bit of a wait but the dark chocolate Gelato with pieces of waffle cone was a most definite yummy treat! Helpful service and casual spot to get your sweet fix if you love gelato and all things italian desserts. Along with some of the most amazing canolis and cheesecake, this is a wonderful dessert spot!

Delicious little lemon meringue pie

I had a favorite things party to attend last night and needed to bring a dessert. While I've eaten at Sicilian Butcher more times than I can count, it was my first time going to Sicilian Baker. I walked in and oh man did all the desserts look amazing! I chose a random sampling of: lemon meringue pies, chocolate caramel tarts, wedding cookies, mini cannolis and regular cannolis. The guy working was super friendly and helpful, and I was REALLY popular at the party with all the tasty treats!! The space is small but it's clean, it displays little slices of heaven, and is totally worth the visit!

Found this amazing Sicilian bakery in Scottsdale from Yelp. It was a short drive from the mountains and after a 2 hour hike we were hungry. Jayden took great care of us at the make your canoli bar and were even able to try a few flavors before settled on a key lime and pistachio one. They also have the traditional flavors or can get nontraditional ones such as nutella, key lime, pistachio etc.... We bought a few wedding cookies and their lemon cookies were to die for.Just the right amount of tangy sweetness. The bakery is set up to also accomodate dessert for their adjacent restaurant the Sicilian Butcher. Will absolutely come back and so excited to hear will be opening in Texas with 3 new locations in Houston.

Mini cannolo, sfogliatelle, and some cookies! Fantastico!!!

oh my God! These cookies are AMAZING! Wow! I am heaven! Highly recommend. Everything was amazing. Will be back for more :) thank you to the baker

Chase C.

Friendly service. Lots of options. Free samples! Great desserts; both ice cream and pastries!

Anthony C.

Very nice and attentive service! The worker was so nice and explained everything so well, she was great. I ended up getting a variety of the cookies, some gelato, and a custom Canoli. You can add half flavors to the canola and each scoop of the gelato which is cool. Lastly, my favorite part is that this place's deserts were not very sweet. Rarely, can I find places that don't make overly sugary sweets which is the standard American palate, but this place has the right balance of a not too sweet desert.

Tiramisu
CG L.

Excellent Italian bakery! Everything we tried was wonderful, but the tiramisu is something else...the real deal. Also the best rainbows I've found in Arizona. Everything is such high quality perfection.

Camille C.

Delectable location adorning modern charm. Worth a stop for either gelato and/or take away box of cookies. Love the rolling pins and whisks hanging from the ceiling. Parking in the area is a bit of a challenge. No line, no wait, no hassle.

Do they make schiacciata bread (not focaccia)?

The Sicilian flatbreads are at the Butcher bext door, not the Baker. The sficione is very good! The Baker makes pizzettas.

I visited the restaurant for the first time on Mother's Day with my mom and we had the loveliest time. The service was excellent, the ambiance was so nice with acoustic live music that created the best vibe. We loved the food too, we ordered the Italian chopped salad and it was great along with plenty of delicious freshly baked bread. For dinner, we ordered the Butternut Squash Sacchetti pasta with frangelico cream sauce and almond dust, and it was delicious. But the dish you must try here is the Mafalde Norcina - a ruffled ribbon pasta with wild mushroom, sausage ragu and truffle cream. This dish was so packed with flavor, I finished every last bite and it's a really good size portion. There's a nice large bar and bar area along with plenty of parking.

My two favorite dishes that never miss are the Lasagna and the Chicken Parm. Like clockwork, it has always been impeccable. Sadly my most recent experience will likely be my last experience. I ordered the Chicken Parm and when it came out there was something missing from my plate. Instead of the usual Rigatoni Pasta with Vodka Sauce there were a couple of stale chunks of potatoes and some sorry looking asparagus spears. I asked the bartender where is the pasta. She responded that it no longer comes with pasta and that I could order some at an additional charge. It was at that moment that I knew I would never return again. Never in my entire life have I ever ordered Chicken Parm at an Italian Restaurant and not have it come with pasta. That is like ordering a hamburger and it doesn't come with a bun. Then they tell you that you are more than welcome to order a bun at an additional cost. It was like the ultimate slap in the face. I understand that businesses are under financial pressure in these tough times. I can assure you though that this restaurant does not suffer from this fate. There is simply zero excuse for this type of behavior from ownership. Their meals are already priced near the top of the market here in Scottsdale, and rightfully so as their food is top tier. But to raise prices and then remove a staple item off of the menu is asinine. Again, I really do not like writing negative reviews for businesses because I am a fellow business owner as well. However the consumer in me cannot stand for this type of treachery. I am sick and tired of paying more and getting less. This is not meant to deter others from experiencing this place. It is meant to let management that loyal customers are dissatisfied with their business practices. Finally, I am not a cheapskate either. I always tip at least 30% which is way above the average. I am not tone-deaf, I sympathize with restaurant staff and wage gaps so every little bit helps in the service industry.

That misconception disappeared immediately upon stepping through the doorway. Warm, inviting ambiance, full of character. Attending the birthday celebration for an esteemed young man, our table wasn't ready (we were early) and the hostess offered us seats at the bar while awaiting our party. We each had a wine spritzer... may I say that the very few such concoctions I've had bearing that name didn't do justice to what we were served. I've never had anything like this, a "Sgroppino" (I'm partial to strawberry!) and it was perhaps the best adult beverage I've had in a very long time. Many different nuances in a glass. Stunning subtle, many diverse flavors. Mmm. Our bartender was an artist of the mixed adult beverage, a delightful individual with a warm, genuine smile and an encyclopedic knowledge of how to do his job expertly. Rare that you meet someone like this who isn't all measuring cups and shot glasses: everything he concocted was done by eye, and judging by what he made for us, his expertise was immediately apparent. Ben fatto. È andata benissimo, brava. When we'd all arrived, we were escorted to the "garden shed"... a smaller out-building filled with racks of wine, perhaps an ideal place for small wedding receptions or engagement parties. Well-cooled despite our broiling Phoenix evening. We had the garlic bread; someone ordered IL Tagliere, Calamari (no, thank you), and a basket of bread. You know how you go to a hamburger joint and what you're served looks nothing like the photos of their menu? Go to CiBO's web site and look at their menu: What you see in their photos is what you get. One visit and next time you look at their menu online, you'll salivate. Yes, the food is that good. I ordered the calzone. Delicious. Getting through it wasn't pretty... but it was excellent. Huge, very generous entree. Excellent flavors. Our server was delightful, attentive without being a nuisance. Our water glasses never reached empty, and the stories about the birthday boy (and others) were never interrupted. We never made it to desserts. Too much food and amusing stories. CiBO: È andata benissimo, brava.

An extra treat was that they have bottles of spicy oil on the tables, so I was able to enjoy the crusts by slathering them with the tasty oil as though they were breadsticks. On the way out, after mentioning to the bartender how good the oil was, I was gifted a couple of condiment cuplets to-go, which was a thoughtful and nice touch and sort of made up for the server who wasn't particularly warm or informative as I had to ask about the specials and whether or not all the pasta is freshly made, etc. Heck, if you have a great selling point like homemade pasta, talk it up and get us to drooling! There is a variety of seating available, including outside and at the bar--bar has an inside section as well as outside which is a nice design for the lovely weather days. However, it's unfortunate that the outdoor seating is on such a busy traffic corner, so it's not the little retreat it would otherwise be. The lunchtime music was more like happy hour music, not conducive to conversation--maybe for the cellphones-at-the -table crowd it's okay, but being near the Phoenix Art Museum and Arizona Opera, why not add to the cultural experience of the area by celebrating its Italian origins with some Italian music? Even if just added as interludes during every few pieces, it would enhance the ambiance. We had to raise our voices to carry on our conversation, but it was manageable. However, when I came back the next week with a friend with a hearing impairment, it became more problematic. She tried adjusting her hearing aids, but the thumping rhythm kept taking precedence as we tried to find a quieter corner, but it wasn't possible as it is a small space and speakers were close to each table. I felt so bad that she couldn't enjoy a meal there--we both were so looking forward to having a fresh pasta dish, but just couldn't stay. Upon leaving, I felt I should let management know why so I waited to speak to him, offering constructive criticism about the sound level but he was not the least apologetic nor said he would take it under advisement, but was completely dismissive and harrumphy as though we were annoying problems and not potential regulars with suggestions worthy of consideration. How hard would it be to have a quieter area or make a speaker accessible with volume control? People, whether on the spectrum, with hearing impairments, or just lovers of good conversation deserve respect and when it is not given, will go elsewhere....
