I got the small two scoops cup of Stracciatella and Nerone. It was a beautiful mixture of the two. The Nerone wasn't heavy and tasted like a brownie. Customer service is superb! The employees are friendly and very kind. One employee gave me a free frozen Stracciatella medium size cup because I told him I was driving all the back to Long Island and I wasn't able to finish the one I purchased. I thought that was extremely generous and thoughtful. This place is def a place to check out! It's clean kinda small but there are tables outside to sit and enjoy your sweet treat.

I didn't love haunted banana which my ice cream sharer chose. We had no problem devouring the pistachio. I was able to sample the Figo original, which was too sweet for my liking. Although, I did enjoy the concept and flavor profile. I also sampled the Nerone chocolate and will have to splurge a full cup next time. It's rich and terrifically chocolatey. I'll be dreaming of it until my next trip. I haven't been this excited about any dessert in a while, and it's given my life meaning again. No exaggeration.

This was my second visit after about six months. I ordered a beef burek and a dessert cake…read more When I checked out, I noticed the price didn't match the menu on the wall. The beef burek was listed as $8, but I was charged $10. Linda mentioned that the prices had recently increased but the menu hadn't been updated yet. I completely understand that prices change, but it didn't feel great to only realize the difference at checkout. It would be really helpful to let customers know before they order. I'd recommend checking the price with them in advance, just to avoid any confusion. I also noticed that the filling in the burek was quite small this time. The pastry itself was still big and puffy, but the amount of filling inside felt much less than before. Another small thing is that there were no name or price tags for the sweets. It would be really helpful for customers if those were clearly labeled. You can read my previous review for comparison, as it was only a few months ago. I really hope this feedback is helpful.

The place was a bit hard to find as the block where it is located has a lot of other restaurants, so we missed it at first drive by. The place is pretty big, and was surprisingly crowded at 12:30 AM. They carry coffee, desserts, tea's and have a small counter in the middle. We ordered the Khaliat Alnahl - A Yemeni desert consisting of soft pull apart butter cheese-filled rolls drizzled with honey, which was amazing and disappeared fast. The tea was also very flavorful and we enjoyed our visit. It is a bit far from where I live, but if ever in Queens and after landing at La Guardia, thi will be my go to place.

We placed our order at the register and grabbed one of the open tables. We got the Chai Tea and an order of Khaliat Alnahl ($8). The chai was really good, not too sweet and had a nice strong flavor. We were able to get about six cups out of the teapot. The Khaliat Alnahl, which is one of their popular pastries, was also really good. It wasn't overly sweet, which I liked. Overall, I had a good experience and would recommend this place if you're looking to end the night with some tea and dessert. They have coffee as well, which I'll have to try the next time I stop by. * Street parking * Can be a bit loud * Gender neutral restroom

They treat you like family from beginning to end. Their foods are constantly fresh. One is never expired and everything.Smells like it came from the oven piping hot, ready for service. The prices are very reasonable, doesn't have to break the bank, but enough to have a nice light lunch or a sweet snack on the go. Highly recommended.If you just pass a by four a quick coffee, and some cookies or a nice fluffy ham and cheese sandwich without overstuffing yourself. Definitely.

Gold N Honey was the winner of my last stop destination and the final recommended visit of Jando S. I'd never had Loukoumades before, but they are essentially large donut holes. There are many different types of toppings you can add, most of which are quite appealing, but I went with the Gold N Cream, which had chocolate, bavarian cream and biscotti. Upon my first bite, I assumed I would only be able to eat a few of my box because of the aforementioned crazy eating before coming here. But as I kept going, I realized, somehow, these little delights were nowhere near as heavy and filling as they looked. And by the end of it, I suffered zero stomach-based consequences from my actions. This can only mean that loukoumades are extremely healthy and amazing for you. They're practically grilled chicken! The cold brew was fine - it got the job done and saved me from an epic food coma. And I got to try a new dessert, so everyone won on this day.
