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!

Oreo flavor
Christina M.

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.

Cherry Almond Cannoli

The cannoli are.... many-flavored (orange creamsicle. Cherry almond. Oreo. Key lime. And SO many others) and filled on-demand. They are crisp and delicate and smooth and creamy and many don't make it home. The cannoli dip - DIP! Is a huge bowl of your favorite filling served with cannoli CHIPS. Take it to every party: instant best friend. Baklava. Crispy, crunchy, chewy, PACKED with pistachios and just--the-right-amount-of-sweet. The best anywhere. What really makes this the best bakery for these items? The FAMILY. They are old-school, neighborhood-and-community supporting, grow-their-business-through-hard-work, everyone-chips-in-AND-remembers-their-customers and they work HARD. You want to support them because they treat you - and the sometime pushy and obnoxious tourist - like you are the customer they've waited to serve for the whole day.

Half of the counter inside. Lots of cookies, treats, and of course cannolis.

Never get a cannoli from anywhere else! These lovely ladies know what they are doing and they are the sweetest! Pipe their cannolis on site when you order. Cannoli filing flavors are all amazing! If you don't want soggy cannolis then they give you a piping kit bag with powdered sugar, nuts, empty cannoli shells, and filing all with a piping bag. They package the cannolis with a lovely bow. Other goodies they sell as well, but cannolis are the best! Do not pass this place up!

Great taste and price. Their Angels that wander the streets during events is pretty weird though.

We were in the area and since the hubby loves cookie dough, how could we not stop?? The couple…read morebehind the counter are so cute! Husband and wife, I think they are the owners. She asked if we'd ever been before and explained the different flavors of cookie dough and that they make it right there. They also serve Chocolate Shoppe ice cream from Wisconsin. You have the option to mix & match and add toppings. We shared a scoop of chocolate chip & birthday cake cookie dough. They were sweet, as you'd expect, & very creamy. Our favorite was the birthday cake because the almond flavoring really shines. We ate at the stools along the window & chatted with the couple who thanked us for coming in. I'd visit again just to see them! Next time I want to try the ice cream too! Check them out!

Came here for the first time recently, and we were instantly greeted by extremely friendly staff…read morewho gave us some background on the cookie dough and ice cream. There were a variety of flavors for cookie dough which are all homemade. Additionally, all the ice cream is from Wisconsin which, i did not know, is the ice cream state. Had one scoop of cookie dough and one scoop of ice cream, and both were very rich in flavor. Definitely perfect for those with a sweet tooth, but it can be too sweet for some. It will be worth a visit to check out the cookie dough and ice cream

The smell brought us here. The smell of the burger was very…read moreenticing after walking around looking at ice sculptures. 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.

Service was friendly and attentive…read more Interior was run down, many ceiling tiles were missing. Menu was confusing compared to the board that was in the wall. I expected more of a smash burger based on the diner vibe and some online pictures so I ordered a double Pattie. That was a mistake as the patties were not smashed and were quite thick. I actually removed one of the patties to make the burger edible. Burger patties were extremely salty. Bacon was tasty but too thick to be on a burger as you couldn't easily bite through it. Burger besides being salty was over cooked and not a lot of flavor. Didn't have their traditional bun so had to get the brioche. Seasoned fries didn't have a lot of seasoning. Half order of onion rings was only three, very disappointing. Chocolate milkshake was very good.
