    We figured we would stop in on our attempt to get some exercise after our Italian meal. The owner asked me not not take a picture of him as I was about to take a pic of the empty cannolis. I told him not to worry, he isn't the focus of the photo at all. We got the 6 for $12: Cookies and cream, traditional, hot cocoa, cappuccino, key lime, red, white and blueberry, which were the 6 creams they had today. They make them fresh or rather put the cream in fresh for you. The owner told us to eat them today, but they are would still be good the next day too. He told us to leave the top off and keep it in the fridge, so they don't get soggy, but soft. We each took an end bite of each cannoli. All were pretty plain and simple. The cappuccino and the red, white and blueberry had the most flavor of the 6. The hot cocoa wasn't bad either. None blew me away though.

    Walked in, and the iconic quote from The Godfather bubbled up in my mind... "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli." Never heard of cannolis until I saw the movie many moons ago. But after sampling the cannoli in my car, since there isn't seating in the small shop, I had to look up how to make them because they are $4 each or $18 half dozen. Wow. DEEELISH! Shell was crispy-crunchy and a lovely touch of powdered sugar covered them. The cream fillings were so fresh, rich, balanced sweetness; good mouthfeel. The marriage of the creamy filling and crunchy shell was perfect combo after bite after bite. The flavor choices were classic, peppermint, and chocolate. All flavors were excellent. Surprisingly, they sell baklava and salted caramel chocolates. Got those as well. DEEELISH! The shop reminds me of visiting someone's great aunt or Nona... welcoming, decor like an antique shop, and good treats. The sweet older lady running the front, was so cute. Friendly. Clearly explained to NOT close the container if refrigerating. Otherwise condensation occurs. Followed her instructions, and took a bite of one of remaining cannolis next morning. YUM. The shell slightly softened, but still good crunch. Overall, forget ambiance. Take the cannoli.

    Cappuccino, pumpkin spice and original flavor - delicious, especially the cappuccino

    Bought 3 different cannolis - cappuccino, pumpkin spice and original flavor. All were good but the cappuccino cannoli we voted as the best with the most flavor. Fresh crisp shell. Delicious!

    Such a pleasant surprise! I'm not a huge cannoli fan, BUT these were amazing! Very crispy and light. Would get the 6 deal next time, definitely worth it. Also tried the pistachio baklava, very good as well. Will go here again for sure!

    This place is adorable! Christina helped me and told me all about the ingredients for my allergies and was able to catch a problem for me BEFORE I purchased it and it sent me to the ER. The Oreo and regular cannolis that I did purchase were amazing! Super fresh and not cloyingly sweet like many American-style Cannolis tend to be. I would recommend Holy Cannoli for you and your party. A really great place order from for a bridal or baby shower! And the cannolis are made to order right in front of you! I'll definitely be going back!

    Fresh traditional cannoli and apples and cinnamon cannoli.

    I brought my husband here for Sweetest Day because he loves cannolis. The rave reviews are well warranted. The shop has a very traditional and family oriented feel. We ordered the traditional cannoli and apples and cinnamon cannoli. They were both delicious. This will become a tradition.

The front is well maintained and welcomes you through the door to a gorgeously decorated dining room and bar. Seating is somewhat limited (it's a small space) but we got there during a slower period so we were sat right away. The brunch menu has a good variety and I opted for the Avocado Croast (the "toast" was a croissant) and a drip coffee. Beware that the drip coffee gets only one free refill. I asked during ordering because there are some places that don't give any free refills. Hubby ordered the Huevos Rancheros served in a bowl. The food came out beautifully and was very fresh. If I wanted to nitpick, I'd say they are keeping the roasted potatoes in a steamer which is making their crispy outer layer somewhat soggy but they still tasted good. They should revisit how they are keeping them warm or crisp them quickly before serving. The avocado toast didn't have a lot of avocado but it was still good. They should consider adding some sea salt to top it off - it would enhance the overall flavor. The service was good - I think our server wasn't comfortable in this job. That was okay for us as she warmed up to us after a while. All in all, a nice experience for our first time there. I'd like to return to try other menu items in the future.

It is a VERY small place with horseshoe shapes bars and stools, a few 2 top booths, and off to one corner, hidden, a hallway with 3 booths to fit 4. Luckily we found the last table empty and stuffed our stuff in a corner. Had we been prepared to come here, we would have not brought the stroller, definitely no room for it. Table service was fast by what looked like a High school kid, just like old times. We ordered burgers, fries, and a kids meal. Burgers/sandwiches and fries are all Ala carte. 2 burgers, 1 set of fries,1 order fried pickles, a kids meal, 1 milkshake and 1 pop was just under $70. The burger was DELICIOUS, juicy, flavorful, good quality meat, cheese and bacon. Fries were just okay, but the pickles were good. My daughter enjoyed the hot dog. We weren't going to order a milkshake but my daughter overheard the table behind us order one, and so we had to get one too. The waitress said they were huge, and in fact all three of us split one milkshake. And it was a rich, flavorful milkshake too.

However, the service was very slow (granted, it was busy on a Friday night) and the food was less than mediocre. The chicken tenders, our go-to before the remodel, are no longer on the menu! The items are pricey, although you do get a good portion. The only thing worth getting again was the Oreo milkshake. The burgers were messy, soggy, and lacked any sort of specialness. Unfortunately, we will not be returning.
