The same 30-ton coal oven that baked Hoboken's legendary bread sticks for Frank Sinatra now anchors this century-old bakery-turned-restaurant, where filmmaker Joseph Castelo and nightlife veteran Rocco Ancarola preserved the 400-square-foot porcelain brick hearth and wrapped it in '70s swag lights and Fornasetti credenzas. The menu arrives written like a film script, nodding to the mid-century icons lining the walls. Come for the living history, stay for the bread that once traveled by the suitcase to Ol' Blue Eyes himself.
