Located in the vibrant heart of Sacramento at 2376 Fair Oaks Blvd, Ettore’s Bakery and Restaurant is a delightful culinary haven that masterfully blends the charm of a classic bakery with the comfort of a cozy cafe. Specializing in a diverse menu that ranges from indulgent cakes to savory breakfast and lunch offerings, Ettore’s invites you to experience a feast for the senses in every bite.
Step inside, and you’re greeted by an inviting atmosphere where the aroma of freshly baked cinnamon rolls mingles sweetly with the robust scent of freshly brewed tea and coffee. Their house specialty, the Cinnamon Roll French Toast, is nothing short of sublime—plush, buttery slices of their signature cinnamon rolls, perfectly caramelized and served with warm maple syrup, real whipped cream, and fresh strawberries that add just the right touch of brightness and freshness. This dish alone encapsulates the warmth and comfort that Ettore’s strives to deliver.
Beyond breakfast, Ettore’s offers a sophisticated yet approachable selection of lunch and dinner items. Their Meat Quiche, served with a side of fresh fruit and mixed greens, is a testament to their culinary craftsmanship, delivering a flaky, savory delight that perfectly balances richness and lightness. For lighter fare, the rotating Roasted Chicken Salad or the Vegetable and Pasta Salads (which change daily) showcase a fresh, seasonal approach that keeps things exciting and vibrant.
Cake lovers will find themselves truly spoiled at Ettore’s. Their specialty cakes like the Fruit Basket Cake, Princess Cake, and the decadently smooth Chocolate Mousse Cake are crafted with meticulous attention to detail and feature ingredients that melt luxuriously on the tongue. The 8" Tiramisu Cake is a standout—lined with ladyfinger cookies and filled with creamy mascarpone mingled with rum-laced chocolate ganache, each bite offers layers of complex, yet harmonious flavors complemented by delicate chocolate shavings on top. Meanwhile, the 8" Kahlua Cake provides a boozy, mocha pastried cream experience that feels both indulgent and sophisticated, perfect for any celebration.
The warm, knowledgeable staff add to Ettore’s appeal, consistently praised by patrons for their friendliness and helpfulness. While there was a minor hiccup mentioned by a customer regarding order customization, overall, guests appreciate the attentive service and genuine care put into making each visit special.

Great place for breakfast and DESSERTS! Good food and beverages but better dessert! Service was great till lady made a mistake in our order and they refused to take off the whipping cream and strawberries from our pancakes, for my kid. That was an easy fix that we initially were requested it. Other than that, good place!
I moved away from Sacramento before Ettorre's became so popular, and I've been dying to try it forever. Well, the day has come and dear lord it was worth the wait. I wish I'd taken photos of the other items I got - the red velvet cake simply disintegrated when my back was turned. (I live in the South, now, and I know from Red Velvet cake.) This one is phenomenal, not too sweet and the crumb is to die for. The carrot cake is equally good, as are the lemon bars, Italian wedding cookies, and the pistachio macarons. Utter gustatory paradise! (Did I mention the red velvet is super yummy?) Everything is as delicious as it is gorgeous, service is fantastic, location extremely convenient. Go, by all means! Edit: we came back for dinner and my steak salad was simply perfect, no other word for it. And of course I forgot to take a photo, but I got two more slices of red velvet and by golly if they didn't disappear as quickly as the first. Table service is just as wonderful as the counter service. It's just an all-around wonderful eatery!
I ordered a half dozen eclairs for my coworkers birthday on Halloween and they were amazing!! I wish I had gotten a picture before we ate most of them but they were too good to resist! Great pricing and super helpful staff!
I order birthday cakes for my Mother. I am in Kansas City and she lives in Rosemont. The orders has been described as heavenly. Thanks to the team of highly skilled professionals that makes this a wonderful experience. Thank you. I plan on coming by when I get back to Sacramento. Update: 10-4-2025 - My mother received the cake and shared a wonderful picture. Thank you Thank you Thank you. Perfection!
Food was delicious , service was friendly and helpful. The woman working the counter helped us quickly and pounted out some things we hadn't noticed. Thwy have a massive yummy selection of desserts here but we stopped for a quick lunch. We split a pastrami sandwich w fries with a delicious coffee. Decent price good food friendly people.
I’ve dined here before and was very happy with both the service and food, but I have to give a major shout out for Ettore’s Bakery and Restaurant. I wanted to bring fresh baked goods for Christmas and mistakenly thought the location was open on Christmas Day, upon arriving the owner I believe approached us and even though the location was closed she kindly asked us what we had come for and she gave us a free and beautiful dessert. It was such a kind gesture and it definitely made mine and my husband’s Christmas Day and the whole family enjoyed the Yule Log.
Absolutely beautiful bakery. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. Everything behind the glass is a work of art. My first time here, I had the peach tart and the lemon bar. The lemon bar was particularly prefect. The peach tart was not too sweet. Both were baked to perfection. Delightful service, beautiful packaging. High quality, highly recommend.
