You could live off those tri-color cookies for the rest of your life. Stop in and get a pound of those, or the pinole cookies, or a half-dozen cannoli. Great for parties. Better eating at home.

Hidden behind the counter, the tri-color cookies are not to be missed.

A NYC institution with a wide variety of cookies, old school Italian - kinda mass-produced.

Great place for coffees with a dash of your favourite spirit!

Absolutely the best dessert place in the East Village. I recommend one of the many varieties of chocolate cheesecakes.

Mini Oreo cheesecake balls. They only have them on weekends

FABULOUS! Great Italian cheesecake. Worth the trial into the city.

Gin and tonic is always charged as one drink. A Black Russian has two alcohols but charged as one drink. But $14 for a baileys and amaretto. Watered down in a small glass. Inappropriate.

Get the mini cannoli, its cookie to cream ratio is better than the large.

If you're nice, say please & thank you, they'll give you a chocolate rugulah free of charge.

JaneSeptember 12, 2017
This was a slice we pulled out - and trust me when I say there was nothing left behind, it's not like it collapsed. It was hollow in the middle.

Get a little of everything. There are some mini versions of classics. Don't forget to see the bins of cookies behind the counter.

This place has been there for a very long time and they forgot how to make good Italian pastries.When Morton Williams pastries are better - that is a low blow.
JPAugust 29, 2012
great place for desserts, but i don't think there's a single savory item on the menu.

Italians rule! Always did and always will. The first pastery shop on the lower east side. Everything is to die for.
