Today was my first time trying this place. I got there less than two hours after opening, and they…read morewere already almost sold out. There was one customer ahead of me, who seemed more concerned with making conversation with me and asking me what I would be ordering, rather than making his own decision. After it was finally my turn, I asked the employee if a specific product contained custard or pastry cream, and the answer somehow included telling me the history of the owner attending pastry school, a list of their locations and hours, and a tour of everything they carry. I was just looking to get in and out, and apparently this is not the place for that. I am used to big city bakeries, and I would say this is a small town bakery. I'm sure it's fine if you have time to kill, but I wasn't looking for that. I decided on a dark chocolate croissant. It was $6. The small part that had chocolate in it was WONDERFUL, but it was just about a dollar coin size of chocolate in a large croissant, so it was almost entirely just a plain croissant. For $6. I wanted to like this place, especially since there don't seem to be other bakeries in the area, but I likely will not be back.

This visit, we picked up a small box of assorted cookies. We also got a couple of cupcakes that we planned to enjoy right away. Mine was Chocolate Turtle and the other was Carrot Cake. Thankfully, they had napkins and forks available, which came in handy. Both were delicious. The service has always been excellent, with friendly people behind the counter who make each visit pleasant. Sciortino's is a must-stop if you're looking for delicious Italian cookies and other bakery treats.

First time here. I was originally planning to drive to Brady Street and visit Sciortino's, but then…read moreI came across Scordato's. I'm glad I did. Food: I found all the classic Italian bakery treats I was hoping for, including cannolis, cream horns, and an assortment of cookies. Rather than trying to decide, I asked the person behind the counter to put together a selection for me. I mean, how can you go wrong? It's all good! Service: There were a few people ahead of me, but it didn't take long to reach the counter. The person helping me was pleasant, although not much for small talk. The entire visit took no more than five minutes. Easy breezy! Atmosphere: The storefront features large windows that let you see inside before you even walk in. They also bring in plenty of natural light, making it easy to browse all of the bakery items. The display cases were well organized and easy to navigate, so it was simple to get a good look at everything. After getting home and sampling my assortment, I realized I don't always have to drive downtown to Milwaukee to satisfy my Italian bakery cravings.

Best Italian bakery around!…read more Everyone is always so friendly when I visit and their food is always delicious! 1) The wall of cookies is like no where else. They are excellent and I can never leave without getting at least a small container (you know as a snack for the ride home haha). They are always sooo fresh. I've tried most of them and they are all excellent. 2) The hot ham and rolls on Sunday are hard to beat. Their super thin sliced ham is so flavorful and their rolls are so fresh. 3) If you have not had sfincione yet just get some (if it's there- it sells out quick). Sicilian-style pizza and you'll thank me later

I particularly enjoyed the Heath Bar Brownie, which was delectable and complemented perfectly with a cup of coffee.

Date of visit: March 23, 2025…read more How funny that we visited Bakehouse 23 on the 23rd! Totally not intentional but glad that we did stop by as both of the things that I tried were excellent. First up, location and staff. This is truly a neighborhood bakery so expect to pull in, grab some things, and dash off. I believe they have some tables for the summer but in March there's just no place to sit and enjoy your items, so keep that in mind. It's a family affair behind the counter with the young gentleman reminding me of helping my mom bus tables as a waitress many years ago. He was polite and efficient, two great things you don't see in young 'uns these days! Most importantly, the goods! Sundays are cinnamon roll days and that is where it's at, people. They are ready by 9 am and when we grabbed them this morning, they were still warm! We took them to the Starbucks on Drexel because of the aforementioned seating challenge and they were still warm and also delicious. Easily one of the best rolls I've ever had--and I am nothing if not a bread connoisseur. I also snagged a peanut butter cup for later (later being noon...) and it was phenomenal. Don't sleep on this place--honestly, how am I the first one reviewing it!--if you're anywhere in the southern hemisphere of Milwaukee, it's a gem!

Our son went to the local high school with the chef here and he has gain much training and does a great job in supervising the other cooks. He also does wonderful menu creation. We had a BET sandwich with hash browns and the sandwich had two eggs, bacon and tomato on home made sour dough toast. I have also had two eggs, hash browns and sausage patties with s side of toast while my wife had a toast with a hole filled with egg. And a side of fruit. It's all great.

My mom's go to is the apple butter French toast. Prices are reasonable. The cafe has an artsy vibe to it with pottery mugs on display. There are tables, bar seating that looks into the bakery, couches as well as a few tables outside. Staff were helpful in answering menu questions. Check this place out.

It was…read morevery tasty in my opinion The service from the cashier was great Cute seating area on the inside but very limited There's a seating area just outside of the restaurant with plenty of room for kids to play and adult to socialize Major drawback is that it's all street parking which could be a problem for some of the older crowd A few items that I saw could be very expensive price wise for what you get. And the economy is partly to blame in my opinion

Charming little gem with good Anodyne coffee and scrumptious bakery…read more Just one thing I wish they would fix - please post bakery item prices. Otherwise, every single treat was absolutely delicious. I was seriously wowed. The owner (? I think) named everything I pointed to before giving them to me, but I don't remember all the names. I have to go by what they look like. (Please post bakery item names along with the price!) (Oh and sorry for the bad picture - he looks mad in the picture, but he was actually just really nice and smiling most of the time. I didn't realize until way later that he looks mad in the picture lol) The big puffy cinnamon sugary puff - totally the best thing I had here. Super soft inside and kinda crusty outside, perfectly sweet but not too much. The little mini chocolate croissant lookalike but denser looking things - good, but not necessarily what I'd come back here for. Blueberry scone textured rectangular thing - not airy, but dense, packed with flavor, very filling and delicious.

A lovely little bakery that's perfect for a cup of coffee and a pastry! My family and I were…read more there on 5/11/24 in the morning, and we had a great breakfast. The people behind the counter are hard-working and friendly, and happy to go through what's on the shelves. My brother loved his hot cocoa with their homemade marshmallow fluff! They also sell lotions, soap, and candles from the business/charity next door, Franciscan Peacemakers (closed on weekends). Only comment I can make is it would be nice if the pastries were labeled as well as show the price, but this isn't stopping me from coming back! The prices are reasonable. Accessibility: It isn't wheelchair accessible (a couple steps to get into the bakery), though it is spacious when you get in. For those who are hearing impaired, I didn't have a problem. Parking: free on-street
