    Various Food
    Marie S.

    I saw this cafe near union square and decided to stop by. The place looks very nice and it was quiet. Some people were there on their laptop to do some work. This place has different tiramisu and I got the strawberry one and also the salted caramel tiramisu. The salted caramel tiramisu was my favorite. I also got fried chicken and rice. They give a generous portion for the food and I was able to share with my friend. The food was delicious. Its a nice cafe and plan to go back there.

    I been waiting to try this place since my last visit in NY. Finally, i got the chance to try it but a little disappointed even the tiramisu are beautifully presented. I ordered the peach lychee and sesame soybean. I expected to be less sweet since it was Asian inspired, They used sponge cake inside, it was soft but a little dried. It doesn't worth it, it cost $32 not including tips.

    Tiramisu flavor selection

    This cafe was a pretty nice spot to sit and chat while enjoying some tiramisu cakes with Asian flavors. Ordering was done by the giant tablet by their register or you can find a table and order via QR code. They even bring the dishes straight to your table which is pretty nice. The menu consists mostly of tiramisu cakes and other desserts but they also serve savory dishes like pasta and snacks (french fries, Japanese street food). We tried only 2 cakes because they were quite pricey at $15 per slice. The taro tiramisu. The mango tiramisu was my favorite because of how well the mango flavor paired with the sweet cream and the lady finger layers. The mango on top wasn't too sweet since it's not mango season right now. The taro tiramisu had the taro flavor concentrated in the bottom mochi layer so that the flavor wouldn't be too overwhelming. One piece is enough to share since it's quite a big piece but if you've got a sweet tooth, one piece is the perfect portion.

    Mango passion fruit and peach lychee

    We ordered takeout and got the mango passion fruit and peach lychee tiramisu. Both flavors were lacking a bit as I couldn't taste the distinct flavor of the passion fruit or peach. But there were real mango and lychee pieces which I liked. The tiramisu was creamy, soft and moist. Overall I enjoyed it but don't think it's worth $15 a piece. A great way to treat yourself which is what I did to celebrate the end of school forever. The ambience and decor of the cafe was cute and a nice place for a girls outing. When you walk in you can order from the kiosk at the front and can see the display of all the varieties. It was hard to choose as I would have been interested in trying all of the fruity and Asian flavors.

    Love this concept. Was in the city for a few days, and this was on my list of places to go. Sadly, I was running behind and didn't have time to sit in the restaurant and enjoy, so got two pieces to go. The Mango Passionfruit and Peach Lychee. Both were amazing and the Lychee was my favorite. I will say, these travel OK on a plane...but would probably be best at the location or eaten shortly after. Both were light and flavorful and I'm sad I live soooo far that I can't go back to try other flavors. The restaurant was quaint with several seating areas and the display case nicely showed all the options. If you're looking for a unique delicious dessert, try this place!

    MANGO STICKY RICE TIRAMISU - $13.95
    Tu-Anh N.

    WHEN: Sun @4:30pm Met up with friends and wanted some sweets since we all had just had lunch. Although this place appeared busy, we lucked out with 2 tables that seated 2, pushing it next to each other. With the QR code provided at the tables, you place your orders with your phone, and within 10 minutes, they bring out your order! Here's what I had: PEACH LYCHEE TIRAMISU - $13.95 I think they ran out of peach because all I saw was lychee, which was still all pretty good! Though I woul not call this tiramisu since the caked part (ladyfingers) doesn't seem to be dipped in espresso. So it was like having a very light and creamy cake that was not too sweet, but still very delicious! MANGO STICKY RICE TIRAMISU - $13.95 My friend ordered this and I was able to have a taste and it was pretty good! The cake part was green, and you actually taste the sticky rice flavor. They used fresh mango chunks and a mango sauce--overall yummy! Sure, it is a bit on the pricier side, but it was a nice break from being out in the rain. I enjoyed everything I ate here.

    Pandan coconut. Mango sticky. Dubai Chocolate.

    This place is cute. I like the interior although it was cold inside. I love that they specialize in tiramisu and that they have so many different types to offer. I went with my friends and we all ordered something different. The pandan coconut one was my favorite - very light and fluffy (it's also the one I ordered lol). The mango sticky was ok, and the Dubai chocolate was my least favorite. The matcha latte was very good too. Not overly matcha'd which was nice. You order from the QR code at the table and they serve to the table if you decide to stay. Very easy. Very simple. Overall this place was nice. I might go back again for the matcha, but not for tiramisu. It wasn't worth going back to be honest but it was a cute novelty for the moment.

    Coconut pandan tiramisu
    Chris P.

    My coworkers and I decided to try the tiramisu Cafe after our happy hour meal at Marufuku Ramen. Service was quick and ambiance was bright and welcoming. There were a variety of tiramisus to choose from. I tried the coconut pandan and the portion was generous yet too sweet where I could not finish it. I also got the fruit tea which was pricey but necessary to counter the sweet heaviness of the dessert. Definitely worth trying once. I'd go back with a group. It would be great if they sell a sampler pack of all their flavors, great for potluck.

    We just wanted to stop in for dessert. The shop was cute and small. We scanned the QR code and they brought our food to us. Got 2 different cakes, a mango and a pandan-coconut. Both were great. The drinks weren't the greatest but the cakes were definitely worth it. I wish we were able to try all of the cakes but that would've been too much.

    Matcha Coconut Cloud

    I just happen to be in the neighborhood and craving a Matcha so I decided to check this place out. It's honestly so cute and I am so excited to have found this little café! You order at the counter either with the barista or you can order ahead or on a screen. You'll find that there are many tiramisu options as that's their specialty, however, they also have different lattes, teas and even savory things to eat such as spaghetti. I did not really understand what was in the Matcha drinks, but decided to order an iced coconut cloud Matcha. I wish the menu items had descriptions in English below, as I did not realize that this drink would be made with coconut water, but on the bright side it was refreshing! You do have to use your straw to properly mix the Matcha foam at the top into your drink, which ended up making a pretty big mess. There are plenty of places to sit, a restroom, and free Wi-Fi. The staff was also kind as well. I am absolutely going to return here and try one of their tiramisus!!

    I had this place bookmarked for a while because I love tiramisu. My friend and I split the coconut pandan tiramisu. We enjoyed it but wished they had more hot drink options. It was a cold snowy day and they had such great milk tea options, but we would've loved them more if they were hot instead. Seating was a little crowded - seems like this is the type of place where people sit down and chat for a while. They also had savory dishes available.

    Nayeli R.

    This place has cute indoors and ample of seating. I liked the quiet atmosphere and even noticed most people doing quiet activities like studying or reading. Ordering is really easy, you can seat at a table and order desserts and drinks with your phone. However, there is also staff at the counter if you want to order with them. My only disappointment is that they advertise their desserts as "tiramisu" when they are really not. They resemble more sponge cakes than tiramisu because they are not made with ladyfingers (they use cake instead) and I can taste they use heavy whipped cream instead of the traditional tiramisu recipe that uses whipped eggs. I ordered the earl grey "tiramisu" and left most of it because it wasn't to my liking. However, I had a taste of my friend's mango "tiramisu" and that one was more yummy. However, if you like me are searching for flavored tiramisu, maybe try a different bakery for that.

    Jenn C.

    Food: The tiramisu here was underwhelming. We tried the taro mochi, chestnut, and chocolate. All three didn't taste like anything special. It was simply cake with some cream. There's nothing that made me want to come back to this place. The tiramisu wasn't bad, but for the price of $14 each, I would have expected something a bit more. Service: Service was very average and a bit odd. The cashier told us if we're dining in, we could sit down and order using the QR code on the table. After we sat down, the same staff member come over to our table and told us that we need to order and pay up in front. Ambiance: The cafe itself is very nice and a comfortable place to hang out in. The place is bright and feels cozy. A nice place to enjoy your cake and do some work or hang out with friends! Overall, I wouldn't recommend this cafe, but it's a nice place to hang out in if that's what you're looking for.

The melon pieces were sweet, the ice is milk based so it was creamy and flavorful on its own. We barely used the condensed milk that it came with (and we loved how they put it on the side for us instead). At the bottom of the shaved ice was cereal pieces and mochi which gave a nice different texture. We also tried their drinks specifically their blue lemonade and mango-ade which I thought was just ok. The highlight is definitely their shaved ice. Definitely go for the large as the small seemed much smaller and for double the price, you can get almost 2-3x more.

I loved seeing the plants along with hints of pink, orange, and yellow throughout the art and furniture. It's a gorgeous space. Service was good, nothing much to mention. For food, we ordered the royal chai, mango lassi, breakfast kathi-rito, and the condensed milk bun. The standouts were the royal chai and the breakfast kathi-rito. The royal chai was creamy, salty, perfect sweet, and silky. It had notes of cinnamon and saffron, paired with sea salt. I loved this drink. The breakfast kathi-rito was tasty. I loved the potatoes, cheese, egg, avocado, and whatever else was in it. The sauce on the side was delicious. Not exactly sure what it was but it was sweet with a kick. The mango lassi did not have enough mango flavor for me, I couldn't justify paying $10 for it. The condensed milk bun was good but it was similar to any other sweet bun in an asian bakery. I'd pass on both of these. Overall, I'd highly recommend checking out Fontainhas. It'd be a perfect spot to check out if you're in the area for the Brooklyn Flea, or just Dumbo.

    SERVICE - located in DUMBO near the waterfront…read more- spacious interior for a cafe with ample seating at couches, bar, and tables - store in the back sells small business owned goods with a focus on South Asian brands - option to order at the counter for take away or sit down and have the menu brought to you - servers were very friendly and engaging - food served relatively quickly - ambiance good for a semi casual meetup MENU - Indian inspired cafe foods and drinks - vegan/vegetarian options available - average price FOOD - mango cake (4/10): mango cake with a vanilla icing. This was on display and it was marked as vegan which made it sound very enticing. Unfortunately it was a miss for me. The icing was overly sugary which gave it an almost cloyingly sweet taste and a crisp top. The cake was dry and lacked a strong mango flavor. I would have liked it more if there was a different frosting that was creamier and less sweet and if there was a layer of jam in the middle to keep the cake moist. - mango smoothie (10/10): mango blended with coconut yogurt and vanilla pea protein. This was phenomenal and i am surprised it was not as popular as it should be considering it has protein and probiotics. The texture is thick and creamy, but the tartness from the mango and yogurt make it still feel light. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! It is a nice hangout spot with a decent menu of drinks and food.
