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

“Juan Dulce does desserts right. The hospitality that you receive the minute you walk in is what missing in many places. He has amazing empanadas and an amazing breakfast sandwich. Oh and such a good tres leche, can’t say there something I don’t like and trust me I’ve tasted them all!“

“Crumbl Cookies is one of those dessert spots that feels more like a weekly rotation treat than a casual cookie stop. My experience was all about texture and presentation—each cookie is oversized, soft in the center, and usually served warm, which makes the flavors feel richer than expected. The rotating menu keeps things interesting; one week you might get classic chocolate chip, the next something like peanut butter mousse or lemon glaze that tastes more like a mini dessert than a cookie.

What stood out most was how consistent the quality felt across different flavors. Even the more experimental ones are well-balanced rather than overly sweet.

Tips from experience: check the weekly menu before going so you don’t miss a flavor you actually want. Go earlier in the day—popular flavors often sell out. If you’re buying multiple, share them; the portions are big and can get overwhelming after two or three. Also, reheat at home for 10–15 seconds to bring back that fresh-baked texture.“

“Really neat little place, friendly people, delicious treats!“

“Came here for the lava seasame crepe roll and it did not disappoint. The crunchy flakes on top added texture to a creamy and most importantly, not to sweet, crepe roll. It’s so soft and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend coming here just for this. Will definitely be back to try every single one of these beautiful and unique treats.“

“My opinion is 9.1/10. Def lived up to hype. I had the yuzu, has a lemon flavor and I did enjoy it. If back in the area would try other flavors I heard the boba is what they are know for.

“My absolute favorite place on Steinway. Amazing and nice employees, always making the food very fast and clean environment to sit in. I tried the Lotus Churro Bites, and it's the best dessert I've had in a long time. Perfect amount of everything, and overall very good service. Would highly recommend.“

“The best cookies in the world“

“Had a great time here! The afternoon tea set was beautiful and stunningly presented. Some of the food I liked while other bites were okay. I would love to see more pandan flavors on the afternoon tea menu.
All the staff are incredibly kind and took some photos for my mom and I for mother's day! The ambiance of the place is great, super cute and cozy.
Overall, really enjoyed this place and definitely will be coming back!“

“My husband, son & I went to mango mango dessert. The service was very nice & people was very sweet. The dessert & teas was great. We would go back again soon.😊“

“Very good and very satisfying“

“I ordered the 3 piece fried chicken,cole slaw and biscuits.Overall the food was ok.The chicken wasn't the juiciest and didn't have much flavor.The coating was fried dark but little to no flavor.
The biscuits were ok but I didn't see option for butter or honey.The slaw was basic.“

“To be honest we are waiting for our deserts but I just wanted to say that the girl in the front (Zorhan) (I hope I spelled it right) was so sweet and attentive and answered all of our annoying questions so pleasantly. So thats 5 starts off the back. This is what most places lack. Coming from 22 years service industry I think most Owners tend to overlook this. Im happy even before I have a chance to taste anything and that, mentally changes everything. Will update after trying the actual deserts“

“Un lugar donde se combinan la calidad + frescura en sus productos, como valor añadido excelentes atenciones, higiene y servicio al cliente profesional. Cliente complacido !“

“During my time in Kingston last year, I enjoyed a lot of the menu options such as the fruit salads (especially the ones with chocolate in it). I especially enjoyed the banana crepe, velvet crepe, chicken crepe, garlic beef crepe, and the chocolavo drink. All the options were quite unique and worth the price. It's too bad this place is closed though. I really wish there was a restaurant in my current area that is at least remotely similar to Fruit Festival.“

“Dessert Heaven in BAYRIDGE ?

I stopped by to try the crepes, donuts & waffles that’s made with halal ingredients! Besides their ice cream & shakes, they even make fruit juices that’s refreshing on a hot summer day! I loved the watermelon one the most!

The have a few seats inside but more seating outside.“

“I just stopped by Milk Bar with some friends and had such a great experience. I ordered the Cookies & Cream along with a pie, and everything was honestly so good, but what really stood out was the service. The workers, Rob and Noah, were incredibly kind, welcoming, and patient the entire time. They made the visit feel warm and enjoyable, and you could really tell they cared about giving customers a good experience. It honestly made the night even better. Definitely one of the nicest visits I’ve had here, and I’ll absolutely be coming back.“

“Delicious 🤤 My Very First Time. Definitely Will Be Back“

“You can truly see the great care and attention to detail this team put into their craft. From the packaging, store design, to the fact that they use metal straws for everything (and you get to keep it?!) AND their absolutely DELICIOUS mochi, everything’s wonderful!! Best mochis I’ve ever had, so affordable, and I always feel good being in here. Must try!“

“I love this place. Brooklyn Sweet Spot have the best bake goods. Blessings Kym!!!“

“I recommend to everyone on their cheat day or when you carving some sweets. The Dubai chocolate strawberry cup filled with top quality fruits. Cup is big,mixed with white and milk chocolate! Bubble waffle cone with ice cream we shared it’s huge. Picked chocolate pistachio and banana ice cream on top hard chocolate I asked extra it’s so yummy!!!“

“Good cakes and very friendly staff.“

“This is the only reason I visit Chelsea Market when I am in town.“

“I’ve been coming here since they’ve opened. Their carrot cake is delicious ! The cream cheese frosting is exquisite and the cake is moist . The other pastries they have are also delectable . The cafe menu items are also made to perfection . The owners are extremely hospitable as well. I highly recommend this bakery !“

“I am officially obsessed with Sweet Cats! It’s easily the cutest spot in Union Square! The atmosphere is so playful and Instagram-mable, but the real star is the menu; the bubble tea is perfectly balanced and those souffle pancakes are like eating a delicious, fluffy cloud. It’s the perfect place to satisfy a sweet tooth and take a break from the city bustle!“

“This is, to my knowledge, the first location in the US outside of Miami for this Argentine gelateria chain. It's in a quaint little area of Williamsburg, right near Domino Park, and I presume they'll do well when the weather is warm. There was a nice person working here when I stopped by, and the space inside is nice. Along with gelato, they also sell a handful of mostly Italian pastries and a selection of coffee and teas.

They offer many samples, though presumably fewer once they get big lines. I tried a handful of flavors, and my preferences, in order, were: Dulce de leche, hazelnut, passion fruit, and pistachio. I liked them all, but the dulce de leche was particularly outstanding, with pieces of chocolate caramel inside and enough salt to tone down the sweetness. In terms of more traditional flavors, the hazelnut was better than the pistachio, though both were nice. I usually prefer pistachio, but I liked the hazelnut's roasted flavor more here, with pistachio being stronger at other gelato places, including the fancier chains Gentile, Venchi, and a few other smaller places like Pamina. The passion fruit had a good balance of sour and sweet. In general, the gelato had a very nice, creamy texture, with only a slight preference for the outstanding Rivareno in Tribeca and Gentile, but both spots offer much smaller portions at similar prices.

I eventually got a medium-sized cup, which comes with two choices for $8.50. There is also a large option with 3 flavors for $9.50, and it was a very decent portion size. The medium size was also packed, and I think they should add a small (or call it a kids' size) for a bit less. You can see the previous paragraph regarding both flavors (I got the dulce and hazelnut) and gelato textures.

I slightly prefer other places for flavor, but this place strikes the right balance between portion sizes and overall quality. Would recommend.“

“Awesome dessert place! We got the
-Dubai chocolate cup
-cheesecake melt waffle
-laza special kunafa

Apparently you can request all desserts and drinks to be less sweet which is great. My fave was the Biscoff kunafa. Delicious and excited to come back!“

“After having the very first bite of one of the cookies, I immediately fell in love. The Chocolate Chip Walnut was the ultimate balance of everything you look for in a comfort treat while the Funfetti flavor caught me by surprise and is now considered the best sugar cookie I ever had in my life. There is two other flavors in the box I have yet to try and I have a feeling they won't disappoint, but after having those two said flavors, it is without a doubt that I will definitely be coming back for more sometime soon in the near future. That you could believe. ❤🍪“

“Oh man these people they don’t play around every thing I got it hits on the spot from all the sauces they use and even the coffee they got
I got the crispy creep oh my god definitely coming back ❤️ shout out to MR Mahmoud he has such great customer service ❤️“

“Born and raised in Brooklyn, it's a shame that I just came across this wonderful gem. Everything was truly delectable. The shrimp in the Po Boy was fried to perfection and the jerk chicken sandwich was very tasty, but the star of the show was the banana pudding cake! 10/10! This spot has become a new favorite.“

“Best place for a sweet treat always has great promos and customer service is amazing it’s also a nice place to catch up with friends or even for a little date there is a upstairs areas set up very nice and the downstairs . Love going and ordering from here .“

“Stopped by SALSWEE today to pick up little pastry gifts for colleagues and had such a lovely experience. Especially wanted to thank Kaylah, who was incredibly nice and thoughtful!

It’s 34°C / 90+ degrees today and one of those days where people can understandably feel a little short-tempered from the heat, but Kaylah was truly sunshine. Her warmth and care made the whole dessert shopping experience even sweeter.

The pastries were beautiful and the service was exceptional. Will absolutely be back. Thank you again, Kaylah!“

“Great coffees and nice staff“

“Cheese tart on the go! The tarts are a must have if you are in Chinatown! The flavors are mostly asian inspired! Way to represent the asian community on this delicious tarts! Location: It is located in Chinatown, it is a small store with a display of their cheese tarts. Just buy and go! Service: The server were nice, he gave you good recommendations. Food: All that we ordered was delicious, we finished it on one seating because everything was delicious. We ordered all the flavors, it was original cheese, original cheese with blueberry, chocolate, matcha, black sesame and ube. My favorite was UBE and ORIGINAL CHEESE WITH BLUEBERRY. The crust is perfect, its crunchy and not thick. The filling is silky and smooth, not heavy unlike other cheese tarts. Price rating: 6/10, it was not that bad for the price. All flavors are good! Will definitely come back here if I visit again Chinatown. Get the ube and original cheese with blueberry, they are the best flavors!“

“My partner showed me a plate of carnitas while at Columbus Circle and I said YES PLEASE so he ordered and we walked to this little cute spot and asked to please eat it inside since it’s freezing outside and I needed to use the restroom after eating and was pleasantly surprised the food was DELICIOUS I ate the entire plate! The meat is savory and the sauce was YUMMY. It had a little punch and tasted like a thousand island sauce but yummier. I recommend this place 100%. The female behind the register was very personable and polite we appreciated her for letting us sit in for a bit afterwards. I can’t wait to return to taste their other dishes 🙏🥰“

“Small cute shop hidden away at Midtown.
Service is slow.
Food is alright but very pricey for the portion size.
We got the thai tea ice cream and pandan toast.
It was decent but wouldn't run out of my way to get it.“

“Absolutely delicious! Go treat yourself !“

“Chip city is insane !! They are such a caring company to donate to the NYC Ronald McDonald house. I was honored to have tasted a cookie (or 2) and was blown away. Absolutely amazing love for their community. Thank you Chip City !“

“very good😋😋😋“

“I got the strawberry cheesecake crepe, mango lemonade slush, and fruit smoothie with no sugar. All were very refreshing and tasty. Loved the seating and quick service. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quick sweet treat. They also have savory crepes for those with less of a sweet tooth“

“The restaurant doesn't try to be unique. The excellence encompasses all from dishes to design. The food and service together created a great experience. Their restaurant personnel deliver beyond ordinary care. This place deserves more recognition!“

“Villabate Alba is best best pastry shop and have amazing, delicious and yummy stuff NUMBER ONE pastry shop in New York“

“I’ve been coming here since they opened and I love their passion fruit yogurt SO MUCH. But today, I saw that they added a take on Bingsu to their menu: shaved frozen yogurt instead of ice, topped with mango and strawberry. It was DIVINE. Treat yourself and get one.“
