    I like everything.

    I went here for dessert, I really liked the bingsu and the bread. I'll come back again.

    Cute chic Korean coffee shop with a pleasant vibe. We got the dalgona and blueberry latte. The coffee honestly was just about okay, nothing to write home about. But, it is worth paying a visit for the ambience alone! Give it a shot...

    Iced Latte

    I absolutely had the best experience at Camellia Bell. It is definitely one of my top coffee shops in Bayside. I am very picky with coffee because I am a big coffee fanatic and always trying different coffee shops, but I absolutely fell in love here. The atmosphere is cozy, quiet, and has a beautiful antique style. It is a small space, but so cute and inviting. There is a few seats inside and some outdoor seating as well, which makes it really nice to enjoy your drink. The barista was so helpful and informative. Any questions I had, she answered, and it really added to the experience. I ordered the chestnut latte, an iced latte, and the purple yam cookie. Everything was absolutely delicious. The chestnut latte was amazing. I didn't even realize it wasn't coffee at first, but it was made with freshly ground chestnuts and it tasted warm, cozy, and Christmasy. The iced latte was perfect, smooth, and not bitter at all. My coffee tasted sweet and flavorful even before adding any sweetener. The purple yam cookie was also incredible. Everything is baked in-house, which I really appreciate because you can taste the quality. The prices are very reasonable for the quality you get, and I definitely feel like it is worth it. I cannot wait to go back and try the purple yam latte next. This is hands down one of the best coffee experiences I have ever had. I will definitely be coming here more often.

    Delicious refreshing iced coffee and chai. Chic decor and vibe. Service with a smile! A hidden gem in very busy section just off Bell Boulevard. Luv it!!

    First time here, enjoying the outdoor seating. Feels as if I'm in a little Paris cafe. The inside is also very cute! Service was friendly and fast. Love how cozy the cafe is. Come here if you're looking to get away from the rush of bell.

    The cashier/barista is AMAZING and deserves 6 stars just for her customer service! So nice! I ordered takeout and it was still perfect when I got home. This is hands down the best Bingsoo I've ever had because of its awesome toppings, and shaved ice. It's the only place I will go to for Bingsoo. Fruit Bingsoo 10/10 Caramel latte 8/10 Honey bread 7/10 it's more of a very dense bread if you like that texture. Toppings were great. (I put their whipped cream on top) Chestnut latte 7/10 Doesn't really taste like traditional chestnut. It's more of a wafer flavor. I'll try the dalgona next time.

    Great coffee and scones

    Charming atmosphere, great coffee, and scones! The atmosphere is like a sidewalk café in the heart of Europe. Elegant, tasteful, ambience, relaxed atmosphere great place to sit and contemplate.

    This little historical quaint tea and coffee shop lives on the corner of Bell Boulevard and 42nd Ave. in Bayside. As you step past the doorway, you step back in time. Time stands still for the moment as you sit with the home-baked treats and beverages. This cozy little shop holds many emotions. The owner's personality is very inviting. Her love for European culture and her time living in Switzerland influences this pretty little "Camellia" cafe on "Bell" blvd. Stop by and ask for an organic cup of tea or a freshly baked pastry. There is a little of something for everyone. The service is impressive and prices are reasonable.

    Cute cafe on Bell Blvd with good coffee, bingsoo, and sandwiches! Came here multiple times with friends and really enjoy the overall vibe of this cafe. This cafe has a no laptop policy that really encourages people to connect with each other. You can also disconnect with the world by bringing a book or something to read. Will be back :)

Pickles were spears in a breading that was crisp and tasty - these are so good and sho I love be added to the permanent menu. Tbh whenever I see fried pickles, I always order them. I also ordered the Classic Throwback: #6 ( description copied straight from their website) - Grilled chicken, grilled asparagus, shaved parmesan cheese, fresh lemon, extra virgin olive oil and roasted garlic mayo served on ciabatta bread $17.67 - the perfect sandwich , so full of flavor, chicken grilled to perfection. I could only eat half while at the resto. Hours later I ate the other half and I and it cold and it was still perfectly delicious. I even tasted more of the flavors this time around. The bread used for the sandwich , just so good. This has become a new favorite and I will definitely be revisiting! Also, please add this sandwich to your everyday menu. Thank you in advance. As a side, everyone was super nice and welcoming and attentive to our needs TY!!!!

    It's been six years since I last came here. The food is still pretty good and the service was…read morefriendly, but overall I found the sandwiches a bit overpriced. The menu has very detailed, almost elevated descriptions that make everything sound spectacular, but in practice the flavors don't quite come through, especially the sauces, which are barely noticeable. Our server was flexible when we asked to swap the potato chips for fries on the kids' grilled cheese meal, which we appreciated. However, we were then charged $1.40 for a side of ranch for the fries. I understand they have a range of specialty sauces and dips that are clearly priced on the menu, but that still felt steep for ranch. They also offer a combo option to add fries for $5, but the portion doesn't really feel aligned with the price. The steak sandwich itself was surprisingly tender, even though it looked like it might be tough. That said, I couldn't taste the roasted red pepper sauce, and the "sweet onion jam" turned out to just be caramelized onions. My mother actually ended up picking them out because she doesn't eat onions. (she won't eat onions that she can see) The buffalo cauliflower was tasty, but could have been crispier. The "serves two" description also felt a bit generous given the small portion. I also ordered a brisket sandwich to go with fries. The coleslaw sounded great on the menu, but in reality the flavors didn't stand out, no real hint of jalapeño, just a fairly standard slaw. Overall, the food descriptions felt more impressive than the actual execution, though the to-go fries portion was more generous, which was a nice surprise. Would I go back? I'm not sure. Maybe for a casual visit with a few beers and fries with an assortment of dipping sauces...I am a sucker for those.

Thin & crispy crust, great ratio of sauce and cheese. I also love how clean the restaurant is. They have some incredible specialty slices that I never knew I needed in my life until I tried them! Especially the "Desi Boy" slice and the "white truffle chicken cutlet" slice. I also have to mention their vodka slice with sesame crust Everything in this place is high quality, even their regular slices. Their sandwiches are pretty incredible too, and you can tell that the bread is fresh made in house-- you don't feel bloated or overly stuffed after eating them! The owner is super friendly and even gave us a couple extra slices to try to complete our "pie" when we had already ordered a small variety of slices. The staff are all very friendly and it feels very comfortable and less stuffy than some of the other pizzerias in the area. Happy to give this place my business. Give them a try, you will be back for more!

When I think back to…read moreour must recent visit here though, I'm reminded again and again how pleasant the staff were. It took us a while to decide on what to buy partly because we were buying also for our friends. Naturally, we were asked relatedly by at least the different staff if we needed help or if we were ready to order. Each time, they seemed genuinely want to help, and made us feel welcome with their smiles and gentle demeanor. For myself, the pistachio muffin was totally satisfying and I confirm they did not slump on the nuts. The crunchy eclair was a BIG hit with our friends, and the rest is kind of a blur but I know we enjoyed everything we tried. We'd go back without hesitation. I hope they keep up the great work.

The restaurant/bakery is big with lot of seating. Great display of cakes, pastries and breads. Street parking is available. Service: the nicest people. Food: all of their cakes, pastries and breads aew amazing. But two of my favorites are: DUKE: definitely a must! Its chocolate cake with I believe a cookie crust inside. It comes in cubes so definitely easier to share. CRUNCHY: this is the very must!! It's chocolate mouse inside with layers of other chocolates. Plus with nuts on it. It's like a ferrero but bigger! Price rating: 7/10. It was not expensive a good cake. I always buy cake here for special occasions or even if I am craving cakes. Visit this, its worth it!

The neatly lettered menu board has all the Italian classics and originals to get on a roll or hero. We don't call them wedges or grinders or hoagies in Queens. AY! It's a Hee-Ro! You slice open a long crusty loaf, pack it with meat, cheese and dressing and that's a sandwich! On my way home, I come over the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, hang a left onto 14th Ave and get parking across the street. I'm looking at the sausage & peppers or maybe chicken, eggplant, meatball or shrimp parmigiana, but then I spy the Anti-Chicken Parm and I'm drooling for it on a hero. The promise of that sandwich was delivered in the chicken cutlet with vodka sauce & mozzarella and layered with salty, meaty prosciutto. Mmm-Mm, what a great sandwich. As tasty as the sandwich was, it is on the pricey side, so I'm not going to be doing an $18 sandwich every day of the week, even though one hero could feed 2 people. I know I'll be back soon enough, though.
