I picked the design, they made it exactly how I wanted it. When we served it at the shower, people were raving about the cake. People were having 2 or more slices it tasted so good. That was my first time buying a freshly made cake from them and I was beyond impressed. My mom told me she normally hates icing and she devoured the whole thing haha. On top of the delicious cake, we had them cook two trays of pork. We seasoned it and brought it the night before. They were cooked to perfection and it just took off some of the stress of preparing for the shower. The staff was extremely friendly as well and helpful. I love this place and I'm glad it's my neighborhood.

I've brought their pies to countless block parties and picnics, and they're the ultimate crowd pleaser! The Napoleons and cannolis were also great, though I found the Oreo cake to be a bit dry. Overall, highly recommend trying out any of the many assortment of treats they have here! Note that they're cash only.

I got a cake for a baby shower about six months ago from there. It looked beautiful but it tasted really stale.... I gave them another chance last week. What a mistake.. I got cannolis and pastries... the only word that's fitting is horrible! To be honest with you all the cookies look like they're brought in from outside companies like wholesalers if these people aren't going to bake their own stuff at least spend the money and buy stuff that taste good. Also, the place is filthy.

But this unassuming bakery steps from the last stop of the A train is not just a neighborhood gathering spot, but rather a destination-worthy purveyor of some of the best cakes in the city. For a recent celebration we ordered a red velvet as well as the chocolate ganache cake. While I expected the red velvet to be my preferred option of the two, the chocolate ganache was absolutely stunning, with a decadent texture and richness. We received multiple comments from guests asking where we had sourced the cake, none of whom expected the answer to be Inwood.

While most people would think to flock to Arthur Ave when looking for an Italian bakery in the…read moreBronx, you cannot rule Sal & Dom's out. My family, friends, and I have been customers of theirs for years - and in my opinion other bakeries don't hold a candle to their offerings. Like most Italian bakeries - Sal & Dom's offers the essentials: cannoli, lobster tails, sfogliatelle, and a large variety of cookies. Their American offerings shouldn't be overlooked - they have a lot of mini pastries, sweet breads, rolls, and traditional cakes as well. I love their sheet cakes - the sponge is so airy, and you can choose from a large variety of creams, custards, and fruit as filling. Usually I'll opt for whipped cream frosting because it makes the cake super light. Besides the cakes, you really can't go wrong with anything Sal & Dom's offers; they have some of the best cannoli and rainbow cookies I've ever had, and during the holidays they serve up a mean cuccidati. Is this the best Italian bakery in the Bronx? In NYC? I would put it to the test. Everything they bake is consistently good, so if you're in the market for some pastry be sure to stop by.

It was very clean and contemporary. The customer service was top tier! I was taken back by the variety of cinnamon rolls available. However, I narrowed it down to the original, pistachio and guava coconut. As I took my first bite of each flavor, the texture and flavors of the cinnamon rolls were EVERYTHING! I said, "come on now the Bronx!" Unfortunately, I couldnt finish them as I would have liked for only 1 reason - they were a bit too sweet, especially the guava coconut. The bottom of the rolls had the sugary cinnamon glaze as well. Still, I do see myself returning as I would like to try their red velvet and tres leches when they are available.

Be prepared to place your order in Spanish because the staff speaks little to no English. They have a variety of different pastries and they even offer a few selections of sandwiches. The Cuban sandwich is very tasty; filled with meats and cheeses and then pressed. I love their guava and cream cheese pastry, it's the perfect breakfast snack! It's sweet, savory, buttery and the right amount of flaky. The tres leches is also a very big hit but they sell out quick so bring your luck. Ultimately, I love how inexpensive they are which always makes me want to try/spend more than I should during my visit. Sometimes the pastries can be too doughy, dry, and/or stale but the prices make me not mind as much. For instance, I ordered a chocolate frosted donut the other day for 50 cents and it was way too doughy so I only ate the chocolate frosted part. It can be a hit or a miss but it's an experience nonetheless... a cheap one thankfully.
