Classic Italian bakery. Pumpkin cheesecake was delicious, macaroon cookies were decent. But the reason to go are the cannoli. Freshly filled. Not too sweet. Very crisp also wonton like shell. We also got cupcakes that were dry and had shortening frosting and hardly any flavor besides sweet.
I got a ricotta cake, pear tart, flourless chocolate cake(2 pieces) and cassata(1 piece). The cassata cake was very good. It was different than anything I’ve ever had. I would say you just have to look at the ingredients and if you like the ingredients, try it. Would definitely order again. The pear tart was ok. I can’t say it was anything special. It was too dry for me, and not enough pear taste. The flourless chocolate cake was excellent. I would definitely get that again. Now as far as the ricotta pie, I thought it was delicious. It had more lemon flavor than other ones that I’ve had, but that turned out to be not good because it gave me heartburn later. Now believe me I love lemon. I drink organic lemon water. I love chicken franchise. I make it with fresh lemon and lemon juice. The on
Old school bakery. Hasn't changed since the turn of the 19th century. Exquisite Italian pastry made in the old school style. The experience rivals the pastry and the people who work and operate this establishment understand the responsibility to the customer and to history. I only do I get a cannoli freshly filled I also get my heart filled with my childhood and sense that someone remembers What this primarily Italian neighborhood was and what it's still means to also live there. Come for the pastry live the experience!
We had a couple orders for Christmas excited for our first time to try the bakery! One order we did was raspberry cheesecake and one was tiramisu however we was not given the tiramisu a received someone order of almond cake with filling. We was bummed everyone was looking forward to the tiramisu at our Christmas party! Raspberry cheesecake was very pretty decorated.
Nothing about this place is Italian…. Cannoli cream was not made with ricotta, they were awful. Elephant ears were stale and the cookies had no flavor. Tiramisu was missing something and the espresso cake was not good.
