    8/13/25 menu
    Stacey S.

    8/13/25 Mixed review.  The good- We ordered ZUCCHINI STICKS ($10.99), CHICKEN SOUVLAKI PLATTER ($26.99) and the BROILED FILET OF SOLE ($20.99).  The zucchini sticks were most likely frozen but they arrived hot and crispy, and they were good! Sauce was no bargain.  Even though the chicken souvlaki platter was offered online it was not on the menu inside, but they made it anyhow.  The seasoning on the chicken was so flavorful, really delish.  The sole was a nice portion and tasty...because it was swimming in butter, just fyi.   Gabby, and Elizabeth who was very new, were our severs. Not as attentive as I expect, but both were super friendly.   The not so good. I was asked if I wanted soup or salad, so I opted for salad.  Then when my entrée arrived it also had a salad.  Had I been told, I would have opted for a vegetable or soup, not 2 salads!!  All of the dishes came out at the same time. Our entrees came out mere minutes after our app.  The restaurant has to be loudest I ever been to. Horrible acoustics. I was looking forward to dessert, and I tasted a few flavors but they didn't do it for me. Def not enough mix ins. Pistachio flavor was lacking.  Honestly, most flavors looked like they were melting, so unappetizing (see pic). Passed on dessert!

    Great family spot serving over the top deserts that are sizeable to share. Quick service keeps things moving as people cycle in-and-out, and with a robust desert menu you are surely to find something that hits the sweet tooth. Definitely a spot to check out if you live in the location - or even if you are on the outskirts. Definitely a fan and will be back soon.

    Funny, the gift certificate seems to say International Delight Cafe, Bedford Ave.

    The Service was great, the food was great but unfortunately my wife & her 80 year old mother was treated like garbage by one of the owners when she tried to redeem a gift certificate from 2021. She was informed that it would not be honored as the current owner was not the owner at the time it was issued. When she pushed back a little she was told her business won't be missed and feel free to never come back. We've enjoyed coming to International for as long as I can remember. We've lived in Bellmore since 2006 and celebrated many a birthday and occasion there. Last night was her actual birthday and It's a shame that this is how loyal customers are treated. On the front of the website it says "our local gelato shop and restaurant, established in 1983"....Perhaps mention new management since whenever.

    I've been to the International Delight Cafe in Bellmore multiple times, and I've always been impressed! Their burgers are consistently great and their desserts are absolutly amazing. As soon as you walk in the whole front area is lined with desserts and they all look so good. The gelato selection is incredible with so many delicious flavors to choose from. But the real star of the show is their gelato stuffed cannoli it's hands down one of the best I've ever had! The combination of creamy gelato and crispy sweet cannoli shells is a match made in heaven. If you're a dessert lover like me you owe it to yourself to try one. The service is great and staff is friendly. I love this place and try to fit it into my plans whenever I can, although I do wish they took cards since I don't always carry cash and often decide on a whim where I want to eat. Definitely recommend trying them out. Enjoy!

    Huge portions!

    We went in for dessert. We decided to get ice cream. My son wanted two scoops, so we shared because the portions are huge. I had decaf coffee, not bad for a small cafe. Ice cream was delicious! Service was amazing!!!

    What a great neighborhood luncheonette style/diner/ice cream parlor, we had great service with Victoria. The breakfast was on point service was excellent and the ice cream was out of this world. I highly recommend international delight Café.

    CASH ONLY or Venmo Nice corner location as soon as you walk into the right, they have over 60 flavors of ice cream and gelato, this is more than just your average ice cream shop. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, I was very impressed with the quality and taste the portions are generous, service was outstanding. Everything was fresh, and they have so many things to choose from on the menu, something for everybody.. They probably get really busy on the weekends because they're across the street from a movie theater, located on Bedford Avenue and in the Bellmore, Village.. Nancy was very helpful and very attentive, they also have a rewards program that you could scan the QR code at the table,, Again the ice cream there are so many different flavors, exotic type they do offer you free samples, they also have other pastries and donuts, very large dining area, can accommodate a lot of people, and very spacious, I highly recommend you try the Belgian waffles, We enjoyed the farmers Omelette, The beef, a Roni soup was delicious, the Penn State pot roast sandwich was actually replaced with roast beef, but it was just as good.. The three scoops of gelato, outstanding, highly recommend the Nutella flavor

    We went there for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon and it was packed. Service was extremely fast and delightful. Everyone was smiling. We both had lunch special sandwiches which came with a delicious homemade soup and a scoop ( a very large scoop) of gelato ( there were easily 60+ choices to choose from) for dessert. We will definitely come again when we come to this neighborhood.

    FANTASTIC food! I had chicken and waffles, my son had fresh fruit French toast. Both were extremely delicious! They also give great portions! I took some home with me. I can't speak on the gelato, although my sister in law says it's really good. I'll have to try it next time because I was full! I couldn't eat any gelato. Our server was friendly and patient with us. One of I'm assuming the chef's came out to check to make sure everything tasted okay! Which is cool you RARELY see that anymore. It's very clean and not too loud. Their parking lot was full! Which is a good problem for them to have lol! There's another public lot across the street as well so it's really not that bad. I dropped my son and mother in law off and went to park my car.

    I've been coming here for more than I want to admit and makes me feel old. I'm going to keep this very honest in respect to using common sense/speculation/as well as responding to some of the comments on here. We haven't been there in quite some time...surprised to see the place redecorated. My wife loved it...I understand it. I'm one of those people that walk into a pizzeria and see faded red Formica tables, benches and dated dingy decor as a good thing. I was never bothered by aesthetics as it seems seasoned and perfected like the food im about to indulge in. The old international cafe had a plethora of food, nothing that wow'd you BUT was consistently good even though they had a great variety. The freshly made waffles, variety of gelato and fresh whip cream needs no review. People who complain about noise should just stay home with their mask on. You are talking about an open place restaurant that is a staple of a community for decades. Why in 2024 are people so miserable to see others so happy. Place is jammed back...what do you expect it to sound like? People complaining about kids are the same $hit parents who rather hand their kid a iPad instead of letting them socialize. When we go there we expect it to be busy, loud, kids be kids, great food, great service and pay cash. With new owner ship comes many things and one them was the menu. We were thrown off since we were expecting our usual order. A lot of their items on the menu can be easily replicated at home. When we go out to eat we only order what we don't make for the most part. My wife ordered their Chicken Tenders which was made fresh as they were chicken cutlets cut down. I thought it was OK my wife was not happy bc the crispy bread outside came off the chicken itself. We also got wings and beer battered onion rings. Onion rings were great and wings are wings. We don't deep fry in the house for many reasons...we never ordered anything deep fried at the old spot either. Got their loaded potato skins which my wife enjoyed as well. Reviews about the new whip cream being OFF in taste is correct. Gelato tasted the same to us which was good. Price seemed fair for what we got compared to others places we have gone too. Best of luck to the new owners and staff. I honestly don't think we will be back bc happy wife happy life Our waitress was PHENOMENAL

    International!

Another favorite that is on the regular rotation is the triple chocolate cookie. I like the contrast of the white chocolate chips to the dark chocolate dough. S'mores is my brother-in-law's favorite. It is a good merge of a cookie and the campfire treat. They also make special cookies that run for a limited time. Rainbow cookie and croissant cookie were some of the memorable ones. The promotions they have are really good. For Halloween they gave out Lil' chip cookies to anyone in costume. The Lil' chip seems to be about 3/4 the size of a full sized cookie. You also get a free cookie on your birthday when signing up for their loyalty program. I usually take advantage of the uber eats BOGO offer or the BOGO off on the chip city app (usually Wednesdays). When I order either way my order is always ready for me.

We clearly agreed that the cake would match a reference photo, including specific colors and Spiderman eye decorations. The manager reviewed the image with me and allowed me to take a photo of her phone showing the exact design we agreed upon. When my husband arrived to pick up the cake--after the promised pickup time--the cake was brought out, but the manager quickly asked for it to be returned to the kitchen because it was not ready. At that point, it was clear the cake was also missing the agreed‑upon decorations. I spoke directly with the manager, who then denied ever agreeing to include the Spiderman eyes, despite having reviewed and approved the design earlier. Most concerning, my husband later observed the manager alter the photo on her phone, removing the decorations we had discussed. Additional requested decorations were also not put on the cake. It has now been weeks, and no one has followed up, despite being told the owner would contact me. For the price and the importance of the occasion, this level of disorganization, lack of accountability, and dishonesty is unacceptable. I expected professionalism, transparency, and follow‑through--and received none.
