In 1983, I arrived in New Jersey to begin my professional football journey with the New York…read moreGiants. As a young kid from Louisiana, one of the first things I missed was the culture, flavor, and sweet treats that reminded me of home in New Orleans. Back then, my teammates used to tease me relentlessly about being the "fat rookie from Louisiana" because I was always chasing pralines, cookies, pastries, and every sugary delight imaginable. Not long after arriving, I stumbled upon a hidden gem that instantly made me feel at home -- Lyndhurst Pastry Shop. This led me to "SACKING" tons of NFC QB's over the years. From day one, Paulette, Jerry, her father, and the entire staff have treated me like family. Decades later, they are still absolutely knocking it out of the park. Whether it's their incredible Italian ice, authentic cannoli, specialty cookies, or my personal weakness -- their unbelievable apple rings -- this place never disappoints. Truth be told, I can't stop there without bringing one home for my wife. Some places serve food. Others serve memories, tradition, and comfort. Lyndhurst Pastry Shop has done that for me for over 40 years. A true North Jersey institution. Five stars isn't enough -- if I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would. Leonard A.

I ordered the coconut almond kid size cup since I was already full from my dinner. I can't wait to come back here to try more of their ice cream. I love ice cream, I am huge fan of ice cream especially in the warmer months. The service was amazing, we did step into the business pretty close to closing time and the staff allowed us to sit down and have our ice cream while they cleaned up and were getting ready to close the business for the day. The ambiance is chill. There were also other customers buying ice cream at the same time as us. This ice cream shop has a homey and family oriented vibe. 10/10 Ice Cream Shop recommendation

I've never written a negative review before, but this experience was beyond unacceptable…read more I placed a custom cake order that we discussed, confirmed, and had in writing. I started calling at 9am to finalize the invoice and never heard back until 2pm. When I finally reached someone, I was spoken to with open hostility and told, "What was I supposed to do, make the cake in an hour?"--despite the fact that everything had been confirmed days prior. The owners mother and counter girl spoke to me in a way I've never experienced from any business or anyone for that matter . Shockingly rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. I have written proof and photos showing they do take custom cake orders, despite later claiming they don't. There was no misunderstanding, no mix-up--just unacceptable behavior. I strongly recommend staying away from this establishment. No customer deserves to be treated this way.

Best gelato I've had in a while! From the moment you walk up, the display case is absolutely…read morestunning. Rows and rows of vibrant, beautifully swirled gelato in every flavor imaginable Ordered the dubai chocolate flavor and also the tiramisu and cookies and cream. All of them were bomb. The gelato is incredibly smooth, creamy, and packed with real flavor. None of that icy or artificial taste you sometimes get with the supermarket brands. Staff lets you have free samples to taste so you can know which one to order. I love that you can watch them scoop it with care. It really feels like a little work of art in a cup or cone. They also have a great selection of gelato bars and popsicles if you're in the mood for something handheld. The staff is always friendly and patient, especially when you're standing there overwhelmed by all the delicious options. There is also a see through glass where you can see how the gelato is prepared in the back. Whether you're shopping, hitting the water park, or just need a sweet pick-me-up, Lucciano's delivers every time. Fresh, high-quality ingredients and generous portions. If you're in the mall and have a sweet tooth, do yourself a favor and stop here. You won't be disappointed!

I did not expect to join the line of dissenting reviews for this place. We really wanted to have…read moresome Gelato and entered the store to no greeting. The store was basically empty on the Sunday before the major black that happened on Monday. The two men near the register were chit chatting with each other and they hesitated to even come to assist us. As we browsed the Gelato options from left to right for a brief moment we then noticed a family of about five people came in. We immediately noticed the difference in response time to this family's arrival. One of the employees immediately went over towards our left as they entered and said, "Guys, when you are ready to order come over by the cash register." This is why it is important for business owners to train the people they hire about appropriate customer service because although the employees are not owners, they are representatives of the business. So business owners have to be careful about who they hire. Hmmmmm, how convenient for these new guests and inconvenient for us that we were not acknowledged until the employees felt compelled to share this ordering practice with a new group of patrons after we were already waiting. That behavior was enough for us to know it was time to walk out. I refuse to spend my money where I can see overt disrespect.

It was a quiet Monday, which means they had all the attention for us. We had 4 rolled ice creams…read moreand 2 boba drinks. Because of the process, the rolled ice cream takes a while, so not everyone in a party may end up enjoying their treats at the same time. These days, sweets can get very pricey, so this is definitely a treat yourself experience. The boba here was very soft and chewy - the best I've had in a while. I don't think they have a good AC system because it was quite stuffy, and we hadn't even hit true summer heat yet!

Do I have anything to do with them after the class? Nope, but I love taking the classes that to the most recent one, I brought 3 friends and was yelled at by another for them not being invited, whoops. I usually end up donating the cake to a local firehouse. The class is such a fun time and Christina is awesome at facilitating. She lets you have full creative freedom when decorating. And the cakes are always delicious. This most recent one was a strawberry lemonade flavor and another was Neapolitan which I got compliments on both, even though I've only done the decorating. I'm excited to see what they have next!

From the convenient user-friendly website ordering system, payment system, and seamless correspondence with Polkadot Cake Shop, I knew I was working with a true pro. I sent a picture of what I envisioned and got exactly that and even better. I've never had any service where I have provided a picture and gotten the EXACT results! Just blown away. The ingredients of the cupcakes were top notch as well, tasted so good, my guests were commenting how it was the best cupcake frosting they have ever tasted. And the 'icing on the cake' was that we received a premium custom-made cake at a reasonable price! I will definitely be using Polkadot Cake Shop for future events, thanks for making my son's birthday a memorable one!

Ice cream roll is made to order and always amazes me how they are made, the liquid turns into ice cream. Oddly satisfying, when the they roll the ice cream into a rolled up newspaper shape. The ice cream roll was really solid, it's a good amount of ice cream, bigger than it seems. I did come right before they closed (10pm), they didn't seem annoyed. I would recommend this place if you're in the mood for ice cream especially late at night. * Street parking * Open late
