There was a constant long line of customers during our wedding cake tasting. Bakery items are fresh and good quality. My favorite item was the hazelnut eclair and chocolate eclair with vanilla cream. Both were delicious! Service: Staff were friendly and helpful during our cake tasting. Ambiance: This is a pretty large bakery with a few tables and chairs for eating. Tables are small and each fit 2-3 people at most. Overall, I would recommend this bakery!

I still decided to try it out! wait time was about 25 minutes until we got serviced. We got an individual cheese cake ($6), french pastry (oreo solo cheesecake) ($7.45), elephant ear ($6,75), and small iced coffee ($4.50). it was 4 items for $25. The original cheesecake had a sour ting to it. The oreo cheesecake was better but both were not amazing. The elephant ear pastry was stale but a large size (see pic). The coffee is from la columbe beans. Overall, I was not impressed with my first time here. Items are overpriced for the quality. Not a must try for your first time unfortunately

For those who are not aware: Layers is a Pakistani bakeshop chain that is absolutely delicious!…read more The Elmont location is quite small, and more of a grab and go situation, but the variety of flavors is truly unique. Choose items like Cadbury chocolate brownies, Biscoff or Raffelo cupcakes, or even sundae cups! Seeing as though there were only 2 left, I ordered a Belgian Chocolate Malt cupcake for about tree fiddy (no joke) and was on my way. The cupcake was superb. The base is a nice, moist chocolate cake. But the frosting is where it truly shines. It was so rich and malty, it was like eating a soft Malteser. What's even better is that the size is not obscene, so you're felt feeling satisfied but not overwhelmed. Service was polite. And if you're not in the Elmont area, no worries as there are now a few locations on the island. Would gladly recommend them for your bakeshop needs!

Only because I have been too Dolce Gelateria before and never gave my review. That being said. Yazmine thank you for the inspiration to visit and give a review. Moving along!! Dolce Gelateria provides accessible entry and there is parking in front away front away from the traffic on Franklin Ave. This is a beautiful gelato parlor. The staff are always welcoming, and you are warmly greeted upon entrance. Things I love about Dolce Gelateria* KI love the outdoor seating. I love the suggestive selling, they inform the customers of the various products for sale, regardless if you buy or not. I love the samples they give. I sampled the mango Gelato. D'licious! I love how they give you a cup and you have more than one flavor., I was asked if I wanted to mix the mango gelato, I kept it one flavor. I also love the prices; it is within my budget. So, I guess by now, one can make an accurate assumption that I purchased the mango gelato and enjoy it immensely . I repeat, it was very D'licious. It is now one of my favorite taste. I purchased the tiramisu; its taste was distinctive and prominent. It deserves to be eaten alone so that your taste buds can savor the flavor for maximum appreciation. I also purchased Coffee flavor. I normally do French vanilla with this flavor, but they did not have it. The Tiramisu was in the same cup as the coffee, I would have preferred a solo cup. I ordered the carrot cake and found it very tasty, and a red velvet was comped, also delicious. I tried the lactose free flavor just to taste but that's not me! But still... Inspire more, Yelp more!

The oreo ice cream was so good and I loved the whipped cream on top. Also, the workers were so nice and caring. They freshly made a batch of 24 cookies for us on the spot!! It took only 15 minutes but i got an amazing deal - 24 cookies for only $24! It was one of the best prices I've seen for freshly based cookies in the New York area. The cookies were so warm and yummy too. There were so many unique flavors of ice cream on the menu, i want to come back for the matcha rolled ice cream. The interior was also really nice- a cute place to hang out with friends, and the place even has a bathroom. There were board games inside like Uno, Jenga, and Bananagrams.

They have an impressive variety of teas, coffees, food and desserts. They also have plenty of vegan options. I ordered a custom-made iced brewed Jasmine Flower Green Tea/Passionfruit Papaya Combo, no sweetener of any kind. It was refreshing, and I could taste the floral and fruity notes. I also had a slice of Chocolate Pecan Pie, which was delightful. Both orders were to go. The manager (I forgot his name) was great and knowledgeable. He was the one who served me and told me that I could sit outside and enjoy my order at any of the small tables; but that there would be no waitstaff since I took my order to go. So I sat outside and enjoyed my order, people and vehicle watching. The downside is that this place is CASH ONLY, and it took about 20 minutes for my order to come out.

When I walked in, I only got a quick "hi" and wasn't really acknowledged until after another customer was helped. To be fair, there was only one employee working and she seemed to be doing her best, so this felt more like a management issue than an employee problem. The biggest disappointment was being told they were out of the white/yogurt sauce after I already paid for the momos. That sauce is kind of essential to the dish, so it made the experience feel incomplete. Inventory and communication could definitely be improved. The deal was advertised as 16 it was closer to 18. The atmosphere also felt very empty and quiet. I honestly think this place would benefit from more community events, poetry nights, music, or something to bring more life and energy into the space. I still appreciate what they're trying to do and I do want to support small culturally diverse businesses. There's potential here, but right now the experience feels a bit subpar and unpolished. I'd still come back in the future to see if things improve.

I went with my friend and we got the Veggie Momo ($12), the Paneer Momo ($13) and drinks. The Momos are shareable and each order has 8 pcs, along with hot sauce, sweet chili sauce and a yogurt sauce for dips. My favorite dip was the sweet chili sauce. I was pretty excited for the Paneer Momos and they didn't disappoint me. We also got the Iced Passion Fruit Green Tea and the Kulfi Falooda Milk Tea with Boba ($8.85, you need to pay an extra $1 for the Boba). I tried the Kulfi Falooda and it had strong floral flavors that felt a bit overpowering for me. It didn't taste bad and was definitely a new experience. Once the ice melted, it diluted the drink and then tasted better.

The term "Paris Syndrome" describes a psychological state of severe shock experienced by tourists…read more(in particular, first time visitors to Paris) who suffer immense disappointment from unmet expectations. Taste of Paris is not actually that bad. But it is pretty weird. The vibe is less Parisian cafe than hostile architecture. For one thing, there's a hole in the ceiling. It is not small. It's basically an entire missing ceiling tile. Like, there may be some kind of repair project or remodel going on? For another thing, it's rather dark for a coffee shop. It's dimly lit with very little natural light. And the walls seem green screen ready. Jarringly sparse but would make a great Teams background. All that said, the coffee is decent. I ordered off menu. A flat white, no sugar, no syrup. And it was solid. Which, in sum, leaves me at three stars. Two or below if you're drinking in, but maybe four if you're grabbing to go.
