Obsessed with this place. Their baked goods are fresh, high quality, and come in great varieties. I’d definitely recommend getting there early—they can sell out of certain things by the time it’s an hour or two to closing. My only gripe is I don’t really think their coffee is great. But it’s really more of a bakery that happens to offer coffee, so I don’t think that’s a huge issue when their pastries are the best around.

Nino’s Bakery is incredible and has the best croissant in DC. Make sure to go early because they sell out quickly. The pistachio croissant is comparable to ones I’ve had in Italy, it was fluffy, sweet, and full of flavor. The seasonal raspberry croissant is also amazing and deserves a permanent spot on the menu. I’ll be dreaming about these pastries for a while.

DC's best bakery .. if they have a blueberry scone - be sure to grab one (or two)!

Great pastry, great people!
I’ve tried croissants in over a hundred places and Nino’s is definitely on the top tier of my liking!
This place does not have much seating options, but there is a bench and a bar and a few tables outside.

_This_ is what a croissant should be! Holy cow, these guys can bake... absolutely flaky pastry, first rate. Tiny, crowded, hardly a place to sit, but absolutely first rate.

The croissants themselves are beautiful, light, airy, and flakey, as they should be. The problem is the fillings. The filling is one line of filling up the middle, so it's not evenly distributed throughout the croissant. The next problem is the fillings; I bought each of the croissants on offer and the fillings tasted like cheap, poorly constructed fillings. The cardamom chocolate didn't taste like cardamom and the chocolate was one dimensional discount chocolate with a stand aftertaste. The food coloring looked fun, but I'd rather know for certain it is a plant based color.... Overall, stick to the plain croissant.

It somehow took me years to discover this place but I'm so glad I finally did! Beautiful pastry. I mean, how can you go wrong with a bakery named after a dog but it still exceeds expectations. The pistachio croissant is to die for.

Grabbed a Sfogliatelle and a Macaron and I'm convinced that Nino's is the best bakery in DC.
