I used to live in Kew Gardens and would drive to Polito's just for their nut cake. I still remember how delicious everything tasted, and really miss going there.
I wish they had mail order!
This was my grandparents' local bakery 40+ years ago, and I still prefer to come here from Queens for delicious fresh semolina bread. Today I needed a dessert to bring to a gathering tomorrow, so I called and asked if I could get some cannoli shells, with the filling separate so they wouldn't get soggy.

Classic Italian bakery. Half Italian and butter cookies, half pastries and cakes. They even sell pizza dough. We got pastries and while they were tasty, they did not stand out either taste- or selection-wise except for the sfige with cannoli cream.
the Napoleon’s custard is eggy. I don’t like the gel on the fruit tart but it’s still yummy. the brownie was hardened and its frosting was lardy & flavorless. many of the items appeared stale.
