Dianda's Italian Bakery and Cafe originated in San Francisco and was relocated to Old Town Fair Oaks after 50 years. Patrons can sit down at the two dozen or so tables and enjoy baked goods, beverages or lunch as Italian music plays softly in the background. Depending on the weather, there is also outdoor seating. There is a regular lunch menu as well as daily lunch specials, which include entrees such as paninis, pear salad or veal parmigian. A couple of the sweet offerings offered at this bakery are the St. Honore Cake and the panettone.
