I was in the neighborhood and decided to try this bakery I have passed by on many occasions but was unable to stop.
I got some C shaped pastry with cheese filling and almonds on top, I don't know the name of it but it was heaven at first bite! It reminded me of a type of pastry I used to eat in Europe bit was never able to find here. It was freshly baked, soft inside flaky outside and the filling was just the right amount of sweet. I loved and savored every bite!! One of the best pastry I ever ate in NYC. 👍

M.S

Their challah is amazing!

I just don't understand the logic behind the way the line works to order... They have a polls with a ribbon separating the area between ordering and waiting, yet, the side that everyone waits on (which everyone else seemed to know about), is the side with the pastries on the shelf - imagine having to knock you in the face or pushing you just because I need something from the shelf. Also, sometimes staff need to go there and your on the phone and isn't practical vs. having everyone wait by the counter area and exiting that way. That way you can order at ease, anything behind the counter is only for staff.

Extremely disappointed!
I bought their tiramisu — it looked fine from the outside, but inside it was completely moldy: green, rotten, and smelled awful. I ate two bites before realizing something was seriously wrong. I was in shock and genuinely thought I got food poisoning. I brought it back, and no one even apologized. They just said, “It happens,” and offered a replacement like it was normal. Completely unacceptable. Never going back.

Go-to place for chocolate babka!! Often buy them to send to family out of state they are that good. The prices are great, and having tried some other things they offer, I would definitely recommend!!

Don’t know what people were saying about the service here. I’m obviously not from the neighborhood and got attended once I knew what I wanted. The pastries are fresh and flavorful. The Apple turnover, cheese danish, and cinnamon roll are incredible! Will be back soon!

Came because of recommendation on Reddit. Wasn’t impressed at first because things looked cheap. Got a chocolate danish and two cheese danish. Every single one of them was mind blowing. They put so much cheese/chocolate inside. You can just taste the quality. We drive all the way from NJ and it’s worth it. Also challah’s half off on Sunday

I live upstate NY. I had a large braided challah in the freezer for several months. I don't even know who gave it to me. I just thawed it out this week. It is the best challah I have ever eaten and I have eaten a lot. WOW

Terrible customer service I don’t know if they have something against non Jewish people.
