CASH ONLY! Super cute bakery! I got three mini cheesecakes- raspberry, strawberry, and cherry. I love the cherry cheesecake sm! I'm definitely coming back to try more of their desserts; the service was fast even though there were a lot of people. There's a discrepancy between the menu prices and actual prices so I do recommend asking them first. I didn't know it was a cash only bakery so my options were limited.

Was so happy after eating my gift and so sad I had no more

The best cake I have ever had in my 50years of life, unbelievable cream soft not heavy in your mouth,I was given different pastries for my birthday and I could not stop eating them,mind you I am not a fan of sweets but this was perfect,

A little out of the way. But once u step in you can tell that the pastries will be tasty based on the smell. The older lady who helped me was so patient and friendly as I tried to figure out what to older for my MIL bday. We went with the chocolate covered cheesecake with the big strawberries on top. The cheesecake was not overly sweet, while not as fluffy as other reviewers stated, it was still very smooth. You Def taste the cheese in the cheesecake. We also got the crumbcake. It was not overly sweet. The crumb part is sweet and the cake at the bottom is soft and spongy. Def will go great with cake or coffee. The shop is on Avery narrow street. Parking is a pain so don't attempt to go by urself. I will be sure to try other things.

When I moved to Whitestone over a year ago, La Cheesecake was at the top of my 'to try' list. It took SO long for me to get there (trying to eat healthy and such), but it was worth the wait. I came here before Christmas and the line was long, but not insane. First thing to know is: CASH ONLY. The employees here are very friendly and it just feels like an old school NY place where everyone knows everyone. I came for the Rainbow Cookie bars for a Christmas Eve and Christmas gathering and they did not disappoint. I love them, and everyone who has tried them loves them too. I grew up with denser rainbow cookies (RIP Mr. Cookie), but these are more light and fluffy. I love them both; I just haven't found a rainbow cookie I love since Mr. Cookie closed. These have the traditional marzipan taste and are extremely fresh. Not too sweet, no artificial flavors like a lot of rainbow cookies have. Just light perfection. And the chocolate is fantastic too. So happy to have found this hidden gem. Next time, I will try some cheesecake, and probably some crumb cake because that looked incredible! Prices are very fair for quality.

Hands down, this is my favorite bakery in New York City. Their rainbow cookies are LIFE-CHANGING. The rainbow cookie bar is essentially a rainbow cookie BRICK. You can taste the quality of the ingredients (especially the chocolate) and the texture is so light and airy. The rainbow cookies are MAGICAL and your life is not complete without trying their rainbow cookie. I love that they're old school - CASH ONLY and they have no website, it's all word-of-mouth.

Highly recommend this bakery they make a delicious tri color cookie bar. We went there this weekend and picked up a linzer tart for my brides birthday and a canmoli cream filled cake the employees are always kind and friendly. The bakery is small but they have a huge selection

Went to La Cheesecake for the first time because I heard that they made the best rainbow cookies. They are my grandson's favorite and since he was turning 5, I thought I'd bring some to the party and surprise him. I didn't know that they are made into bars that you cut and serve. Afraid I'd make a mess of things, I asked at the bakery if they could cut them. No problem! They offered to cut, plate, and wrap 3 bars. In addition I ordered butter cookies which they also plated and wrapped. Make no mistake! Although the cookies look like all those cookies that are packaged and sold in supermarkets, they are far from it. They are baked on premises and are scrumptious! The rainbow cookies lived up to their reputation and made the birthday boy very happy. Thank you Stefanie and all the helpful staff at La Cheesecake. See you next time!

I know I already wrote a review on this place but I just love it so much I can't help but want to praise this place more. Everyone who works there is so hospitable and kind, and not a single item has missed the mark. Yes they're known for their cheesecakes and rainbow bars, but you genuinely cannot go wrong with anything here. I barely venture off to Whitestone but I would to visit La Cheesecake any day.

I wish i could give them negative 10 stars!!!! I ordered my cake 2 months in advance the morning of…read moremy party i called to confirm my cake pick up time of 1pm (it was 10:30am) and I'm was told that the person that took my order was pregnant and they didn't have a picture of my cake...what they provided was so terrible i didn't even want to show it to my guests. It was my daughters first holy communion and the cake was not even remotely close to anything they showed me in their book and the decorating was so bad it looked like a 3 year old decorated it.

I would love to give this place no stars!!!! Horrible service. I ordered my daughters cake and as…read moresoon as it got home it was ruined (I walked one block with the cake). The style of the cake I ordered was a high tiers small cake, when I opened the box the cake completely fell over it didn't have any support in the middle like it should so the cake won't tilt. They also put the small cake in a huge box and when I asked why wouldn't they put it in a smaller box they said it was because that's what they had. When I called and asked if they can fix it the owner told me I have to pay more money or see if it's even fixable with a very nasty attitude. I ended up going to another bakery and they did the cake I wanted in a few hours and it looked way better than what they gave me. DONT EVER COME HERE AND WASTE YOUR MONEY
