Di Rienzo Bakery — Restaurant in City of Binghamton

Just stopped in for the first time in a while. Used to go there on a very regular basis when I worked close by. Sweet memories!!!

EXCELLENT food & great prices!!!

City chicken is still THE BEST I've ever had!!! I've seen them prep it & they meticulously cut out the fat & any 'grizzle.' Highly suggest asking them to heat it up (they drop in the fryer real quick) & add hot sauce. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!

The chili is EXCELLENT!!! Tons of beef, beans, peppers, onions, & a real nice sauce!!! Suggest adding hot sauce. They serve it w/ oyster crackers on the side (much better than square crackers). UPDATE: I can no longer recommend the chili. Stopped in recently & had some. VERY DIFFERENT than what it was & not for the better.

They were out of pasta fagioli (pasta fazool) which is the second-BEST I've ever had!!! It's better than any I've ever had in an Italian restaurant!!! Second only to my mother's!!!

They're also RENOWNED for their fish on Fridays. It's EXCELLENT!!!

The brownies are also EXCELLENT!!!

The brutha that served me (Ed?...I can never remember names) was very personable & a pleasure to do business with. It was refreshing & very unusual to hear an employee speak so highly of his employer!

It's a Binghamton staple. Family-run business going on 110 years. I miss the days when Tony & Rose (God rest that sweet woman's soul) were there on a regular basis. Tony was always high-energy & ALWAYS made you laugh. Rose was the sweet mother that always made you feel like she was welcoming you to her own home.

They're across from NYSEG Stadium; the place w/ the truck on the pole. I still won't park under...

Kinda shady! Was there last week and I noticed my friend with special needs was charged double for his sandwich. I knew the "12 bucks" the manager said one fish sandwich cost must have been an error. They go off weight when at the cash register and a ticket is used to calculate things. The manager realized his error, that the "12 dollar ticket" was for two sandwiches not one after my friend paid. I was hoping the manager would fix his mistake and refund my friend, he did not. To reiterate, my friend has down syndrome and was financially taken advantage of by this establishment. He then doubled down and quoted me for the same price. I did not want to upset my friend who would have been really embarrassed by someone taking advantage of him so I just paid the double amount to preserve his dignity. So they got 30 bucks off of two fish sandwiches. That being said the fish was fantastic and I would have paid the cooks that for their work, but this was a pretty dishonest situation we experienced that left me pretty irritated and disgusted. I hope that it was a busy day and an innocent mistake was made. Though I find that increasingly hard to believe after the proud 100+ years of service. TO BE CLEAR our cashier was not the woman who was working. It was a man who seemed like an owner or manager. Everyone else we interacted...

My son and I found this place quite by accident, I've been a Binghamton resident for over a decade and never knew it was there and I'm so glad that I found it we went in and had roast beef subs, the bread was just amazing, you could have probably put crap on there and it would have tasted good. Just based off of the sandwiches I decided to have them cater my best friends celebration of life. Not only did days fully cater it at an amazing price, but Stacy in particular, was so incredibly helpful. The day before I found out that we were going to have an additional 30 to 50 people and she was able to accommodate me and was amazing about it and we had plenty of food we had two 3 ft subs, macaroni salad, potato salad, 2 pans of baked ziti, a pan of sausages, a pan of onions and peppers, big pan of toss salad, salad dressing, mayonnaise, mustard, sub sauce, dinner rolls for the ziti, sausage rolls for the sausage, oh pizzas we had pizzas... And she even brought napkins because I forgot them. She was amazing, the staff at this bakery are amazing and the food was phenomenal. I can't give it a high enough review. Everybody loved the food. I'll be calling them for my son's...
