Ralph’s Italian Restaurant and Sarcone’s Bakery are two icons of 9th Street’s Italian Market. Both businesses have been around for over a century and are family owned.
Ralph’s holds a special place in my heart because we had our wedding luncheon there – because who doesn’t love Italian food? Among the famous folks who have broke bread there are Frank Sinatra and President Theodore Roosevelt. And speaking of breaking bread, Sarcone’s makes the most amazing loaves of seeded bread in the universe! It’s wonderful to have these remarkable businesses in my backyard.
