“The place is awesome. I ordered the sizzling brownies . There was a lady there, she was respectful to me and advised me by the Arabic ice cream and it was so good with the sizzling brownie.. I’ll definitely come back again❤️❤️❤️ Thank you“
“The best gelato you could only dream of. This place will draw you back regularly with watermelon and mint, limoncello, smores, hazelnut, almond, etc. I can't decide which was my favorite, so I'll have to keep going back. Wish I lived here to enjoy everyday. Great ambience too while enjoying your tasty treats.“
“This is a family owned restaurant in Hell’s Kitchen that takes that to heart. The food is fantastic and service is fast. It just has that bit of personality that makes it feel like a place out of a small town instead of the middle of Manhattan—and that’s a really good thing.My one suggestion would be to maybe add an impossible burger, turkey burger, or a chicken dish to the menu. If you don’t eat beef, there’s not a lot of protein options…but it’s also a burger place so what does one expect.Definitely check this place out :)Vegetarian options: Grilled cheese, veggie burger“

“OMG on what a #delightfulanddelicious experience Sundae’s Best provides! My first visit was May 2023 and absolutely purely a scrumptious surprise found during my walk through Korea town. Having just recently opened they were on top of their game in terms of having unique gelato flavors based out of Korean cuisine and culture. They were super friendly, generously allowing me to sample until I settled on two that kept me smiling all the way home. Imagine makgeoli and potato chip Gelato! The gelato was creamy and dense with flavor. That 4 day trip I returned two more times as I did in my November trip to NYC bringing friends in tow. All enjoyed thoroughly. I’m glad I don’t live in NY because I would be there weekly if not more often!“

“Excellent service and experience! The gelato was so tasty but honestly the best part was the store atmosphere and the superb service we were treated to. Store was super clean, bright, and welcoming. Employee greeted us kindly and explained the different cup options. He wiped our cups clean so our hands didn’t get sticky. Would definitely return!“
“I was visiting the store. The store manager Kadia was so nice so patient. She showed me all chocolate and explained the ingredients and taste. It was a very happy shopping experience. I liked the chocolate, liked the store and the nice lady Kadia. Definitely coming back again!“

She explained everything so well and genuinely seems like she loves the brand. Such a pleasure! Big recommend for those looking for a date night experience after the high line or Whitney.“

Dillon was the perfect guide in our exciting journey into the world of Morelia - gourmet paletas.Thank you??Keep doing your thing, guys ?☺️“
“Ordered takeout:- Chocolate covered Strawberries (5/5)A) These travel beautifully well; B) The juicy, large strawberries enclosed in quality chocolate and a drizzle of white chocolate is the perfect way to end a meal. I would order these again in a heartbeat- Pistachio Waffle Stick (4/5)The pistachio topping, pistachio butter, and white chocolate drizzle made for a highly memorable combination of toppings. I would like to bottle up the pistachio butter they use. For takeout, the waffle did get soggy - somewhat like the bottom of an ice cream cone, and somewhat like choux pastry that's been sotting around. I prefer a fresh, crispy waffle component but this is the price you pay for takeout vs dining in store and having it fresh. Besides the waffle itself. This was a 5/5.“
“I went here with my friends on a Friday night around 10, and there was no line, so ordering was very quick, and the worker had prepped most items, so you received your order immediately, and she was very nice. I had the Tequila Sunrise. It was $18 and was very good as far as sorbet goes. There wasn't much liquor to it. You could taste the white wine in the strawberry sorbet a bit, but the mango just tasted like standard mango sorbet. My friends had a scoop of the hazlenut coffee flavor, and it was very good, but not much liquor flavor either. If you're a big liquor person, you might be a bit underwhelmed. Nonetheless, for the amount of sorbet/ice cream you get in the cup, along with the toppings it comes with and the glass, the $18 is fair, in my opinion and I would go back to try other flavors/creations.“
“My family and I love love love Kubo. Since they opened, we def try to come here any time were in the area. My fave fave fave is the Ube Soft Serve with Taiyaki and boba. Their soft serve is just so creamy and flavorful. I haven't tried everything on their menu yet, but I def plan to. Posting a pic from our most recent visit last week.They have a small seating area, but in the warmer seasons they add some extra outside seating which is nice. Its always a great place for some pics, too.10/10 Highly recommend!“
“This a great new ice cream ? place in Bergenfield and its Philippines ?? infused and my husband and I took our kids there and they loved it. ? they are friendly and nice and explained all the flavors to us. You will like it. And you can really enjoy their ice creamKid-friendliness: They allowed them to try it and we were very nice to them.“
“This is one of the best crepes I have ever had! Portion is huge. So delicious. And the decoration!!! I loved how the owner designed everything by himself, such an artist! The area needed a good crepe place and here it is.I highly recommend it.“
“Very cute spot and very lively! The service was VERY fast and well organized. It truly is chocolate heaven inside. The menu is extensive and they have many create your own options. I'd recommend eating there so that your crepe is hot. We took ours home, but next time we'll be staying! Their crepes are delicious and well stuffed. I just wish the crepe was cooked a BIT longer as it was a little bit too chewy and moist.“
“THE BEST! gelato. This was the best idea for Englewood! I shouldn't rave because it will only get busier, and there is often a line. The experience begins when you step into Bianco Nero. It's as if you stepped into Italy. They offer some delicious flavors , especially chocolate hazelnut. Some flavors are rotated so that there are surprises to entice you. Of course, they have sprinkles and fun cones in different sizes and cups, but the best part is the GELATO!“
“Very good option for Latinos, mainly who enjoy yogurt with yuca bread and other things. The prices are not cheap for the product and ingredients but it is not expensive either... It is managed in the middle, the service is always very friendly and the place is small but cozy. I recommend “
“These cookies are my favorite thing ever. And they are always perfectly made and decorated. It’s my sweet treat of the day all the time!Kid-friendliness: Kids are always in the shop and they are always so excited to get these gigantic cookies. The workers are always friendly with them as well!“
“I’ve been coming here for over 2 years now and all I have to say is that this place never disappoints. They all have a smile and bring amazing energy to the customers. This is the only ice cream place I come to and I know others that came with me love it as “
“The cone ice cream is very carefully made into an artistic rose flower. It's true craftsmanship!There were many types of gelato, and the horse mackerel was not too sweet and was very easy to eat.If I have a chance to go again, I would like them to make petals with multiple flavors!“
“Cookies looked so good we forgot to take a picture of the actual box of cookies we ordered. We got the box of four, Kitchen Sink, Stuffed Nutella, S’mores & OG Chunk. All the cookies were super fresh; hard but soft outside with a gooey warm inside..YUM! My favorite was the OG Chunk (had some sea salt on top) and the stuffed nutella. The kitchen sink was also very good especially with the potato chips but I just wish it didn’t have caramel drizzle on top. Definitely want to come again to try other flavors, but one thing I did have a problem with is the political views on the outside of the door. I do wish I noticed before walking in but I think political views on the outside of a cookie store is not necessary. Other than that, great cookies!“
“A lot of places don't live up to the hype. That is not the case with Surreal. From the second we walked in, we were greeted, and asked if it was our first visit. The employee that helped us was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. We were offered samples and suggestions. Our customer experience alone was worth the trip. The Thai milk tea was the best I have ever had. I was offered a sample of the taro ice cream (not something I would have ordered on my own) and WOW. It might have been the best ice cream I have had. Needless to say I ordered one. Check it out, my entire family enjoyed their orders too. Absolutely worth the trip.“
“My favorite matcha spot in the city, I’ve been loving their matcha with mango, strawberry and latte drinks with oat milk. Super delicious drink to have in the mornings ☺️! The girls here are also friendly and make the drinks so good ?“
“Even in December cannot stop spoke from enjoying delicious ice cream! Me and some friends were walking by and one of my friends persuaded us to trying out some flavors and some of my friends ended up buying. You're able to try out the flavors before purchasing and they have a various amount of mixed favors that was so delicious. The place is buzzing with music and seating is available as well. Service was attentive as well and helped with our asks. I didn't purchase that day but will be back when an ice cream fix is needed!“
“Whether you’re craving something sweet or savory, their waffles are perfection - crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and absolutely delicious. Plus, the friendly staff are always ready with a smile and helpful recommendations.Whether it’s a quick snack on the go or a leisurely brunch with friends, Waffles and Dinges never disappoints. It’s a must-visit spot in NYC for waffle lovers and foodies alike!“
“This place is an experience! We've been coming here as a family since the 1960s and now it's just tradition. Long before the Sopranos filmed here we were enjoying homemade ice cream, burgers, grilled cheeses, and turkey sandwiches. This is old-school, old vibes, but good food. The service has never been stellar but they do try. If you're in the neighborhood I highly recommend coming. Parking is on the street.“
“All vegan establishment that opens a bit late (noon) on a Friday. Food was okay for the price--$8.00 for 1/4 pound the halva. I chose the peanut butter crunch as I'm a PB fanatic. Flavor was okay but it may be because I was expecting more. The food court area was very crowded inside at noon so we ended up sitting outside, which was fine.“
“Celebrated my daughter’s birthday with her friends and had an amazing experience. We got exceptional service and the bubble waffles and ice cream were a huge hit. The customer service was personal and phenomenal. Would definitely come back and recommend for a special and fun treat!“
“A wonderful indulgence on a balmy day or post Lincoln-Center show. They're cool about samples--which is good because all the flavors look and sound delicious and you'll be hard-pressed to land on just one. Convenient ordering pads greet you immediately upon the double-door entry. Seating is limited to five bar stools and a three-seat cafe table inside, so take your treat to one of the five outdoor tables. Or better yet, the steps or fountain at Lincoln Center, or Central Park 1.5 blocks away. The Alphonse mango was transcendent and my toddler loved the blood orange. The lime basil was a touch too tart for my liking, but sour fans might fall in love.“
“Always such a delight to eat at Friendly’s considering how many they closed up. Never go wrong with a Patty Melt( it was taken off the menu for a while but happy to see it back) , a fishamajig melt, or a BBQ tenders melt. Then to finish off with a sundae with the best peanut butter sauce . Our server Harvey is always the greatest . We only visit a few times a year but always remembers us and greets us with such enthusiasm. Highly recommended !“
“Omg why have I just found this place! What an awesome ice cream shop! I absolutely loveeee the variety of flavors not only regular flavors but the awesome selections for vegan and non dairy! This alone deserves around of applause for the food allergy folks!! Having multiple options available AND creative flavors for other dietary needs makes this place such a gem! I hope this continues! The ice cream is so creamy and delicious. I tried the raspberry oat milk and Cookie Monster and neither disappointed. I also love that you can try samples and fit an ice cream flavor that best suits you! Tiny shop but excellent quality ice cream.“
“The burger is good, there's nothing there. We liked it much better than, for example, in the London branch. But: It can still be done better (we think). Eating in the store isn't really comfortable, even though it's delivered to your table (fast food), and prices are already high (for fast food). We found the service a bit intrusive when ordering - tips were very actively requested and then one of the two burgers was forgotten.“

“I came here Thursday morning and the young lady working there Juliana greeted my family and I with a nice welcome smiled. She helped each and one of us and took her time. The customer service was amazing as well with the gelatos. Definitely recommend coming here on Thursday mornings where there is no lines. I recommend getting crispy chocolate ice pop and the cherry vanilla. 10/10“
“A great place for after a show or a quick night cap before heading home. These pizzas aren’t your traditional style and fixings. You gotta try it to understand. It’s delicious. Fresh and the service is very low key but great. No muss no fuss. I love it here. When I’m in the city I always try to eat here.“
“Pretty good yogurt, I’d eat again, mango is tasty. but is anybody gonna mention how they completely ripped another businesses logo?? Litteraly an exact copy of dessert 39s logo. Same everything basically and even w the lights in the back… the only dif is the texture of the hair and lines in the “
“This vegan ice cream was the best I’ve tried so far, hands down. We were on our way to another location and accidentally I noticed an ice cream shop with vegan options ?. To my delight, they were not sorbet as most of the places offer. They have great texture, not to mention very creamy and flavorful. If you are a PB lover like I am, come and try for yourself. The small cone is also vegan. Just amazing!Vegetarian options: Keep in mind, if your goal is a healthy option, this is not the place. However, if you want a delicious treat and indulge yourself, just enjoy. You will not regret!“
“The ice cream is so delicious! Had the guava cheesecake flavor and it was divine. They have different flavors every month I think. The negative is that the ice cream is pricey and the portion doesn’t match the price. It was $11 for the pictured ice cream.There isn’t really space to sit and eat your ice cream in the store. It was empty when I went so I found parking right outside on the street.“
“The service was quick and attentive despite being the only worker available. Everything in the location was clean and delicious. Overall, thankful for this late night bite! It was delicious, cost efficient, and a great source for ice-cream craving satisfaction!“
“We ordered a nutella banana strawb crepe and protein smoothie in person as prices are slightly cheaper that way. The service was so quick, friendly and you get a pretty big portion of crepe stuffed with fruit. The shake was also amazing. Thank you to the kind worker!“
“Ordered: Picollo/Small Cup - Fior de Latte (~$5): translates to "flower of milk"; milky flavor with floral nuances Aya's take: You know when you just want something sweet yet light after dinner, this is the exact flavor that will satisfy that craving. With the Picollo/Small Cup, you can only choose 1 flavor. I wish they did half scoops since the Mezzo/Medium size would be too much for me. Anyway, back to the gelato. The Fior de Latte is so simple yet complex of a flavor. It's fresh, milky, mild in taste. The floral notes are very subtle; I would've loved if that was accentuated a bit more in each bite. Great neighborhood gelato spot! I would go back.“
“Thank you to Sammy who handled customers with grace this evening (a Saturday evening in early April) where customers were lined up out the door! She was working alone and yet never stressed, lost her cool and worked tirelessly until everyone had their ice cream in hand. At a day and age where I wouldn't want my own daughter working alone, she was working tirelessly to ensure her customers were happy and didn't rush through despite the line behind her and anxiously awaiting customers. I was very impressed with her!!!“
“Roll of ice cream, one size only. incredibly unusual location where you can follow the whole development of your milk, chocolate, and strawberry ice cream creations. Rolling guys are so kind. The location is quite tiny and might accommodate up to three families, which is the only reason I gave it a rating of four stars.“
Coffee Shops • $
“I selfishly want to keep this place a little secret, but I know it's not right to do and so I must share my thoughts and quick review so that you may enjoy it too. My go-to coffee is usually black and nothing else. Instead I opted to try their "Hot Chai latte"and a choice of oat milk, half/half and milk and other options. I went with the half/half and It was absolutely delicious. Groundwork's Cafe is just the perfect place to relax and enjoy yourself with their many food and drink options. The energy and vibe is exactly what I like to surround myself in. The cafe is extremely clean all around!!!! The staff members are beyond friendly and welcoming. There's off street meter parking and town meter parking lots within a short walking distance. What I ordered: Hot chai latte Chicken Colombian empanadas A small cup of Tomato Soup I LOVED IT ALL! My NEW FAVORITE PLACE and I'm looking forward to going back.“
“I really love this place. The ice cream is made to order and its done quickly. Do to covid restrictions they still have in place you cant watch them make the ice cream like you used to but you can see the "magic" from a distance. Place looks clean. Only thing is thats a minor inconvenience is the tenants upstairs have ACs that drip directly in front of the door way.“
“We are so completely obsessed with VanLeeuwen. I think we have now been to every location. One of the best vegan ice creams around. So great to have real vegan toppings like hot fudge and whipped cream.The vegan Peanut Butter Brownie Honeycomb (there is no honey in it) is hands down one of the best things I've ever eaten.Music playing and 2 small tables.Open til midnight.“
Hamburger • $
“Always an excellent standard among the Burgers offering in New York, to take away or to enjoy on site at Madison Square Park, if the weather is nice. The simple Schack Burger is already excellent ($7.99) but my favorite is the Smoke Schack with its crispy bacon ($9.49). Don't forget to share a portion of the legendary Bacon Cheese Fries ($6.79). The quality to price ratio is excellent !“
“Can't rate this place enough. The kids and staff are so nice. The ice cream and ice are amazing. Every time I'm in the area I have to stop in. I'm just glad I don't live close cause I would be here all the time and also 200 lbs bigger lol. All joking aside, this place is a must visit for everyone“
