“I’m so happy to have found such a delicious gluten-free dessert! They have amazing Pistachio Cheesecake and Oreo Cheesecake, and both are absolutely delicious. It’s not easy to find great gluten-free treats, so this place is definitely worth visiting!“

“Picked up Di Lena’s Dolcini cookies at the Astoria Night Market and they were amazing. The Brown Butter Pecan White Chocolate was buttery and nutty with a cozy sweetness, and the Chocolate Chip had that perfect chewy texture with soft chocolate pockets. You can taste the love in every bite. So worth it. 💛🍪“

“My husband and I made the long drive yesterday (2 1/2 hrs each way) from upstate NY to visit our daughter in NYC just for the day. While strolling around her neighborhood we came upon your lovely bakery and cafe and after eyeing the beautiful carrot cake in the window, we had to go in. Carrot cake is my favorite sweet treat. There were so many beautiful choices, but we got 2 slices of carrot cake to take back home with us. After the long drive back home we were really looking forward to a piece of cake and a cup of coffee. I opened one of the beautifully packed boxes, which revealed an enormous slice of yumminess!! The slice was big enough for at least 3 people. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Everything about this cake was phenomenal. The frosting was outstanding, the cake was so flavorful and moist. It was the best we’ve ever had. We have enough left for a few days. I’m so glad we stopped in. It was a great way to end our lovely day in the city and will most certainly go back on our next trek in . I will also have to get our daughter pick up some baked goods when she’s coming home for a visit. I highly recommend Crumbly Cafe & Bakery😊😊“

“Great, Great everything delicious. Outdoor eating area only 4 tables.“

“The best strawberry cheesecake and chocolate covered cannolis I have ever had. 100/10, I’ll dream about these items forever lol.“

“Best pancakes on the eastern seaboard! Absolutely delicious maple butter! It’s the best breakfast anywhere in the world!!! 🥞🧇🥓🍁🧈🦋👐“

“The pineapple pork bun at Mei Lai Wah is an absolute masterclass in contrasting textures and unapologetic flavors.
It is a heavy, comforting contradiction a hot, savory meat filling locked inside a sugary, crisp pastry shell. Because both the cookie crust and the barbecue glaze lean heavily into sugar, it is an intense flavor bomb. It can feel incredibly rich or even one-note after a while, but when you catch one fresh and steaming straight out of the oven, it is the ultimate sweet-and-savory comfort food.“

“BEST DONUTS I HAVE EVER HAD! If you’re ever in NYC, make sure to try Kora’s donuts. These donuts are AMAZING! They are all infused with Filipino flavor and culture. I first heard about them on YouTube when a food channel featured them. These are rich and decadent donuts without being overwhelmingly sweet. They are custom made too and made fresh the day of pick up. Check them out!!“

“This place is viral on instagram according to my girlfriend. The sandwiches only come out after 11am, so you have to be smart about “lining up” Considering how they charge 14 dollars for a sandwich they were a little small. But sandwich itself was well seasoned and fresh.
Very limited seating so please be aware.
Really good if you are a vegan.“

“If you’re ever in the Bronx and you don’t stop at Gino’s Pastry Shop, you’re missing out on a piece of real New York history. This Arthur Avenue staple has been serving up authentic Italian pastries for decades, and it’s exactly what you want from an old-school bakery — no frills, just flavor and tradition. The cannoli? Legendary. They fill them fresh to order, and the shells are crisp, flaky perfection with creamy ricotta that tastes like it was whipped up by someone’s Nonna in the back. The sfogliatelle and lobster tails are equally iconic — sweet, buttery, and loaded with filling. Don’t sleep on the rainbow cookies either — they’re dense, almondy, and always spot-on. The shop itself is cozy, with that classic Italian-American charm. Gino and the crew treat you like family, whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth. Prices are super fair for the quality, and it’s cash-only — so come prepared. Bottom line: Gino’s isn’t just a pastry shop, it’s a Bronx institution. Worth the trip, worth the calories, and worth every bite.“

“The best macaroons. The crème brûlée and Ferrero rocher were my favs!“

“The cappuccino with oat milk and vanilla flavor was absolutely delicious — smooth, creamy, and perfectly balanced with a lovely hint of sweetness. The vegan chocolate cake was rich, moist, and full of rich chocolate flavor without being heavy. Everything tasted fresh, extremely elegant, and made tastefully. Highly recommend to anyone.“

“Russ & Daughters is always one of the places I look forward to visiting whenever I’m in New York.

Everything is incredibly fresh and delicious. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, especially the fish and seafood. They have a great selection of fish, bagels, and all the classic combinations, and everything we tried was excellent.

What I also really appreciate is how clean and well-maintained everything feels. Even with so much seafood being prepared and served, you never get any feeling of messiness or poor hygiene. The whole place feels very professional and high-quality, and the level of service matches that.

Absolutely delicious, fresh, and worth coming back to. Every time I visit New York, I’m already looking forward to the day I can come back to Russ & Daughters again.“

“Kam Hing Coffee Shop — House of the Sponge Cake absolutely lives up to the name. 😂 The second you walk through the door, this place has so much personality. It feels old-school, busy, local, and full of character—the kind of place you immediately know has a story.

And then the sponge cake… OMFG. 😭 So simple, but SO GOOD. It’s unbelievably soft, fluffy, light, and basically melts in your mouth. I took one bite and immediately understood why people come here just for this.

No crazy toppings, no fancy presentation needed. Just a warm, fluffy sponge cake done RIGHT.

There are so many places to eat in Chinatown, but this is one I would absolutely tell people you have to try at least once. It truly deserves the “House of the Sponge Cake” name.“

“Best vegan chocolate croissant! Since the closure of Le Petit Monstre & L’impremiere, it was difficult to find a place that makes authentic and proper vegan croissants. Unregular nails it. Also had an excellent plant-based SEC on a round croissant. Excellent! Makes me wonder why they don’t just make everything vegan, no one would notice. Please open a vegan location in Williamsburg!“

“Yummy, delicious, flavorful cookies, and friendly staff. We stood in line outside as they were super busy, but so worth it!“

“Stopped there recently while visiting my daughter. Best Cafe Mocha I’ve ever had! Delicious croissants as well!“

“My family highly recommends Peter Pan Donut and Pastry Shop for your exceptional employees and fantastically delicious donuts!! Thank you for your hospitality and for making my granddaughter's birthday donut trip so special!! It was definitely worth the trip!! With Kristen Fulbrook 💕 🎂🍩💙“

“Yummy, delicious, flavorful cookies, and friendly staff. We stood in line outside as they were super busy, but so worth it!“

“Sehr köstlich und empfehlenswert 😋“

“Amazingly delicious treats! We loved the cloud cake and earl grey puff! It’s to die for! The teas we bought were amazing too! I only have one request, please open up a store in Chicago so I can enjoy your amazing treats more regularly!“

“best macarons in NYC! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Trying Crumbl was honestly one of the things I was most excited about before coming to the US, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The cookies were fresh, soft, and really delicious. I also love that they change the menu every week—it makes you want to come back and try new flavors.“

“Yummy, delicious, flavorful cookies, and friendly staff. We stood in line outside as they were super busy, but so worth it!“

“Super cute space I had found online! The laminated croissant breakfast sandwich was amazing! We definitely want to go back again to try more of their sweets they looked so good! Service was fast and they had a great playlist on when we were there! There is limited counter space but still had a few spots to enjoy your food right there!“

“amazing hot chocolate and cakes. i am not sure the wait to sit in is worth it though as i felt a little rushed. but to take away you wont be dissapointed.“

“La Promenade is awesome , food is amazing staff very helpful“

“Great cupcakes and excellent service!“

“Great customer service! Loved the cereal milk soft serve the most 🍦“

“OMG...this IS the best sponge cake you'll have in NYC. I've had my fair share looking for one that compares to the original Kam Hing. The owner apprenticed with the original Kam Hing owner and finally opened his own cafe! Can't go wrong with the original flavor but the pandan coconut is sooooo goood! it's my new fav! This is my new go to place for sponge cakes!“

“This place is a NYC gem. The people on here giving one star reviews don’t get Sullivan (or food) and have also just decided to purposely get their knickers in a twist. Everything is sourdough based. So, no, Italian tourist, it won’t taste like a run-of-the-mill croissant. It’ll be different (and in many cases better). You don’t think they have enough bread? They sell out because they bake small batch. It’s not Whole Foods. Ingredients are absolutely top notch which is why you feel zero bloat from this food. This is the United States Top ingredients cost a lot. If you don’t like that, show it in how you vote. Best tastes in town here!“

“Pedi un cake para 20 personas y en tamaño me ofrecen uno alto y el que me llegó fue“

“The new owners have brought a completely different level of energy and hospitality to the place. The service is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, and you can tell they are personally invested in making sure customers have a great experience. Me and my son had a breakfast and it was truly amazing.

Most importantly, the quality of the food and desserts has improved tremendously. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious, especially the baklava and Turkish pastries. Definitely worth trying.“

“👍the best, miss going there, eccellente“

“I have a lot of cookies, but Levain will always be one of the top places in the US. Ordered the caramel coconut chocolate chip, dark chocolate chip peanut butter, and a slice of the banana bread. The favorite was the caramel coconut cookie. Very quick service, we were in and out in 5 minutes.“

“Delicious empanadas, and desserts! More than just cakes, stop in for a delicious treat like I did!!“

“Outstanding pastries! My favs are their black and white cookies, (best ever!), brownies and chocolate chip cookies. I find their blueberry muffins and cupcakes to be too small - very tiny.“

“Looking forward to my orders getting shipped“

“Bread Story is a charming bakery that delivers fresh, well-made breads and pastries with a comforting, homemade feel. The selection is simple but thoughtfully done, with balanced flavors and quality ingredients. It’s a cozy spot to grab a quick bite or something to go, and the consistency makes it easy to come back again and again.“

“I have been going here for years and absolutely love it. Service is always fabulous but today I was blown away. I ordered for pick up and was pulled into a meeting, causing me to come get my iced drink and hot sandwich 1 hour later than I was supposed to, leaving the drink melted and the breakfast sandwich cold. When I got there, Pedro didnt hesitate to offer to remake everything fresh for me. In a day where everything wasnt going my way, this gesture from him meant a lot to me.“

“Stumbled upon this lovely shop and tried their Portuguese egg tarts. They are absolutely delicious! The crust is beautifully layered and super crispy, while the filling has the perfect balance of sweetness and rich flavor. Definitely worth a visit if you're nearby!“

“Unbelievably good individual cheesecakes. Always fresh and really tasty. I definitely recommend this store.“

“I ordered scones from Mary O many times— they are always phenomenal, and even included the most lovely additions in the latest order when my note on ideal timing didn’t reach her in time. I can’t say enough good things about Mary’s skill and customer service! 💕“

“I don't usually write long Google reviews, but after attending a buddy’s wedding in North Jersey recently, I had to drop one for this place.
Honestly, I’m not even a big cake guy, but the dessert setup at the reception caught my attention right away. They had this huge, multi-tiered custom wedding cake that looked awesome really clean work, not over the top, just super high quality. My wife and I were actually talking about how great it looked before they even cut into it.
When we finally got our slices, I expected the usual wedding cake thing: looks great, tastes like dry cardboard or straight sugar. But man, this thing was actually insane. Super moist, fresh, and tasted legit. I finished mine in about two minutes and ended up grabbing half of my wife’s slice too. It was so good I walked over to the groom during the party just to ask where they got it. He told me they had it custom designed at D’era House.
Finding a cake designer around North Jersey that makes something that actually tastes as good as it looks is pretty rare. I saved their info on my phone right then and there for our next family event.
If you’re looking for a solid wedding cake designer, custom made tiered cakes, or custom event cakes in Clifton or anywhere in the area, D’era House is 100% the real deal. Props to the baker! 💍🍰💪“

“Really yummy bouncy cheesecake ❤️❤️❤️“

“This is some of the best food around, full stop – and it just happens to be veg friendly. But beyond that, this is a very special establishment. It’s the kind of place where every single part of the experience reflects care and intention – from the menu, to the decor, down to the cutlery. The vibe is casual, and the folks working there are welcoming and make you feel taken care of. The cumulative experience makes for a level of hospitality that many more formal restaurants in the city have lost. I hope this place is around for many years to come.“

“these are incredibly delicious and the staff is so fun and friendly!“

“Amazing baked goods that are not the same played out options you find at most bakeries.“
