- Eleonora MartaOctober 11, 2015It's clearly a must to visit in Little Italy, it was crazy crowded! Desserts are sooo sweet it was difficult for me to eat a slice in one sitting. Very nice and cozy place, remembers old times 😀
- LisaApril 3, 2018The best bakery in Little Italy & uber crowded during holidays. Because it's so famous, I've watched prices go from $6-$21a pound for cookies. HIGHWAY ROBBERY! The gelato is worth it & reasonable
- Anna McNallJune 29, 2014Get the LOBSTER TAIL! OMG!!!!!!!!! Amazing, melt in your mouth macaroons. The lemon custard was so delightfully, strong lemon. A cup of house coffee and a bag full of pastry samples was only $7.25.
- Michael NataleJune 11, 2018Try a cappuccino with a simple pastry like the fruit tart. Gelato selection is also good. Try the biscotti, pistachio, hazelnut and Nutella flavors.

- Daniel MaliaJanuary 27, 2019Leave the gun, take the cannoli. Eat it with your fingers. Avoid the normal American cakes. Opt for the traditional Italian deserts. Grab the lobster tails when they have them!!
- Feels like a tourist trap and definitely pricer than its Brooklyn counterparts, but they do Italian pastries well here. Probably the best cannoli in Little Italy.
