Bread and Salt is such a rare treat. The bread is incredible, and a loaf lasts an entire week, yielding first great bread then toast then croutons and bread crumbs. Of course if you get Rick Easton’s cookbook you can make his delicious “meat” balls (3 kinds!), stuffed peppers, papa Al pomodoro, etc. The donuts are perfect with an espresso in the morning, and so far I have had the onion focaccia, the tomato and the zucchini- all outstanding. I look forward to this bakery opening on Friday all week, and the sandwiches are delicious- my favorite so far is the fig, Gorgonzola and salami. The ones I have had are all made on crispy, olive oil-y focaccia. There is usually a small line but the line conversations are great for menu suggestions, and you can usually have a coffee while you wait. Luckily I live close by but I would drive from Manhattan for this place!!

I have heard mix reviews about this place, so I wanted to know what was all the fuss about!! $26 for half a pizza, 8 slides($50 for the whole pizza). Very expensive but the tomato and bread were amazing. The pizza crust was very crispy. It was worth the try!

After finally finding the time to visit this place, I was underwhelmed. The pizza was decent but a bit overcooked. Good mozz and sauce but not worth $50.

Finally made the trip to Bread & Salt this Sunday. Well worth the wait! Unbelievable menu and the quality of ingredients is top notch. This is as authentic and rustic Italian as it gets. The Mortadella Sandwich on Focaccia was so simple and on point. Everyone working was very pleasant. The selection of legitimate Italian products from Gustiamo (Importer in the Bronx), is plentiful as well, perfect selection to stock up your pantry. Can’t wait to come back and try more items! Quick wait too, about 20 minutes!

Found this place to be an interesting concept as it’s open only during the weekends! I was really looking to try out pizza at their bakery but they said, they don’t sell it by slice so they suggested focaccia bread which was similar to pizza. The best part was that it tasted really fresh with tomatoes, green olive and a bit of olive oil added on it.

Very popular trendy pizza and sandwich shop. The highly restrictive hours make it almost a chore to plan as a family meal. The day we went, their computer held our order for 20 minutes, so our pie was not ready when promised. The menu could be seen as only what is fresh as there were a lot of menu items that were unavailable. In 2022, almost everything can be had almost year round, so only 2 choices of pie was quite disappointing (one choice was just fancy canned crushed tomato). The oversized pizzas are packed in 2 boxes and were cold in the 10 minute drive to the house. Maybe the solution is to eat in the car right away – not worth that.

Try everything- really great sandwiches and sides. Don’t skip the bomboloni donut.

Went to see if this spot was worth the hype, and sadly it was not. Pizza better than average for sure, but nothing to write home about. The amount of cheese on the pie was anemic, and the crunch was totally absent except for the crust edges. Way too much flop. Razza makes a better pie, as do a large number of other places in NYC (Scarr’s) or further into NJ. Skip this if you’re thinking of making a special trip.

We wanted to find a local Italian sandwich place within walking distance. I ignored the negative reviews and gave this place a try. Bought 2 sandwiches. Both were underwhelming to say the least. They tasted like stale bread and deli meat, and bread was too oily. Espresso tasted okay but way to small. Zucchini pie was too salty and lack of flavor. Can’t believe we had to wait at least half an hour for the poorly slapped together food. None required cooking. I couldn’t help but wonder if the business did it on purpose to make it appear that it’s a hit place therefore people don’t mind waiting?
