The best egg tarts I've had outside of Portugal! I tried some of their flavors like belgian chocolate and matcha blueberry as well but the classic was my favorite. The day I came they were also selling breakfast burritos from a local shop which was a nice touch. The egg tarts are packaged so cutely and a perfect treat! read more

Lisbonata has been crushing it with their weekly drops of soft serve, it gives me something to look forward. I love taking the leisurely walk from my apt to try a new flavor every week. I have waited 10-15 mins on line but I have also walked up right up to the window during divine timing. I love supporting small businesses with owners who always find the way to put a creative twist into what they do best. The pasteis de nata which started it all was not my fave. A little too runny for my liking but the flavor and consistency is there and they also get inventive with those. They have a coffee menu and a few tables outside. read more

We recently visited Lisbonata in Brooklyn after seeing all the hype, but unfortunately, it wasn't for us. We tried two of their popular ice cream flavors, Heirloom Tomato and Key Lime Pie. They definitely sounded creative and looked interesting, but the flavors were so unusual that we only tried a few bites and ended up throwing them away. We also had a raspberry matcha latte, which was pretty average and didn't really stand out. We got six pastéis de nata as well, but the filling was extremely runny, which made the texture disappointing. Overall, I can appreciate the creativity and understand why the place gets so much attention, but personally, we didn't enjoy anything we tried and wouldn't come back. I really wanted to understand the hype, but unfortunately, it just wasn't for us. read more

I really love the variety of flavors they have! I ordered a box of 6 egg tarts so I could try every flavor. I was a little worried the flavors would be very subtle but happy to report that is def not the case here. My favorites were the raspberry, yuzu, and salted caramel, though they were all very good. I didn't even eat mine til the next day but throw them into the air fryer at 350 for 4 min and they reheat really nicely. I also tried their soft serve, which was decent but my favorites was definitely the egg tarts. read more

I came here on a Saturday afternoon at 12pm. The line moves fast since it's just a takeout window with some outdoor tables. I ordered the 4 pack of pastéis de nata (yuzu, pistachio cream) for $18 which is a better deal than buying individually for $4.75 each. The pastéis de nata were fresh and warm. It's best to eat them right away. The filling was more wet than a regular pastéis de nata from Portugal but still just as rich. I personally don't like that it's more wet since it's messy to eat. I liked the yuzu flavor more than the pistachio cream since it had a stronger flavor. I did like that the pastry shell was thin and flakier than a regular pastéis de nata. I would come back to try other flavors and their soft serve looked good. read more

Was in NYC for work and as luck would have it, they had a special that I couldn't resist! I have already missed their Ube and Black sesame flavors before which I am kind of beating myself about so I didn't want to miss my chance at their Coconut Pandan Pastéis de Natas and Soft serve! There is absolutely nothing basic about their natas or their soft serves! So many textures and flavors: most dominant were of course coconut, pandan kaya jam, fresh pineapples, and toasted coconut flakes! I also tried their Pistachio flavor but the Coconut Pandan was clearly better. My only qualm was that the natas were quite goey and runny - which hasn't been my experience with Portugese egg tarts elsewhere. As soon as I bit in one of them, it completely fell apart and the entire filling just fell out. I like them a just a little firm - enough to easily bite into while keeping the pastry structure intact, if that makes sense. Otherwise, amazing flavors all around. The mango coconut matcha drink was somehow extremely sour - unsure why and if it is supposed to be like that but I couldn't drink it at all. read more

Finally made my way to Lisbonata in Brooklyn, a spot I've been wanting to try for a while because I've been craving their pastel de natas! I was especially excited to check out their weekly limited-edition flavor: Earl Grey and also got their Pistachio Cream, Salted Caramel, Yuzu, and Belgian Chocolate flavors. The Earl Grey  was delicate and fragrant, with a subtle tea flavor that came through nicely without being overpowering. The Pistachio Cream was creamy, nutty, and rich, with a really satisfying pistachio flavor. The Salted Caramel  had that perfect sweet-and-salty balance. Rich and buttery with just enough salt to keep it from tasting overly sweet. The Yuzu was the bright and refreshing one of the bunch. Citrusy, slightly tart, and a nice contrast to the richer flavors. And the Belgian Chocolate  had a light chocolatey taste and didn't overpower the entire pastry. We also tried the Salted Maple Latte . It was nice and had a cozy maple sweetness with a subtle salty finish, but wasn't anything too crazy or something I'd go back specifically for. It was a good pairing with the pastries, but the sweets were definitely the star of the show for me. read more

I had their pasteis de nata back when Lisbonata was at Smorgasburg, before they opened their brick-and-mortar store in Crown Heights. Now they keep dropping wild seasonal flavors like mango sticky rice, dubai chocolate, and ube cheesecake. But this limited-time black sesame menu felt like it was made for me!! ＊Black sesame pastel de nata $5.5 The figs add a burst of sweetness, while the burnt honey brings out the roasted, nutty black sesame with a toasty caramel note. The custard is literally overflowing! ＊Black sesame soft serve $12 Sweet, jammy figs are such a good match for the nutty black sesame flavored soft serve. I've never seen a black sesame + fig combo before and it worked surprisingly well. ＊Black sesame latte $8 They even have a black sesame latte with rich black sesame paste swirled in! It's more coffee-forward but you can still taste the black sesame. read more

This is tucked northeast of Brooklyn's Prospect Park! I ordered the Colorado out of their selection of Breakfast Burrittoes and really enjoyed the much needed protein after a run with friends. Their pastries are artful and the vibe is very appropriate for a peaceful morning. Their service is quick, and I'm told they started at the farmer's market at Prospect Park and now have their own location. Loved my experience this morning! read more

Yummm. I want more of these Portuguese egg tarts. Super crispy and thin outer crust and the flavors aren't too sweet (which is perfect). Be careful tho, when you bite into it, the cream does burst out a lil. read more

They were pretty tasty but on the liquid-y side. Definitely closer to the original Portuguese style than the East Asian / Macau style tarts.

Probably the best (and most expensive) egg tarts that I've had. Singles sell for $4.50 and there's a slight, increasing discount for 3, 6, and 12. I tried the classic, yuzu, caramel, and chocolate. All are great, but I think the classic is the best option. Filling is somehow creamy yet airy. A crisp eggy and custard flavor. The crust is ultra flakey. Like fresh croissant, flakes are going everywhere... flakey. Tasty little char on top with a caramelized kouign amann style finish on the bottom. It's an elite pastry. It's also very messy and not ideal for sharing. I nearly destroyed myself in caramel. I think the best way to eat them is to cram the entire tart into your mouth and enjoy at your preferred pace. Crust is so flakey and filling is so airy that it basically collapses like a black hole and becomes pretty manageable to chew entirely within seconds. Takeout window with benches and small tables nearby. Staff was friendly, and service was quick once we made it to the counter. Line was pretty long (nearly wrapped around the corner). read more

INSANEEE egg tarts omg, I had the weekly special flavor black sesame, and it was so good. The exterior is SO crispy, with a delicious creamy center. They have such creative flavors (and rotating weekly and monthly specials). I want to try their drinks and soft serve too! There is a bit of seating outside, but you order at a takeout window. The staff are kind. read more

Closed Mondays and Tuesday . Sign on the corner caught my attention and I walked into a short line. Ive heaed the lines can sometimes be very long. I saw egg tarts coming fresh out the oven ,it was a little before 4pm , I'll return to try them , they looked so glossy and smelled delicious. I had a hankering for ice cream . The menu listed 2 specials and one create your own with vanilla soft serve and a variety of toppings. I got the Match Blueberry pie soft serve . The matcha flavor was mild and didnt compete with the blueberry pie components, Very well balanced flavors without being overly sweet. Textural variances galore . I loved it. I only wished I wasn't rushing and had time to sit and really savor this treat . At least I now have a reason to return. Outdoor seating only. Tables and chairs outside . Staff was friendly . I like that they have a bit of everything- savory burritos, iced and hot drinks, matcha, lattes etc, pastel de nata and of course soft serve. read more

Lisbonata - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Service: 4.4/5 Food: 4.8/5 Price: $4.50-5.50 each Definitely a fair weather activity, considering it's literally a pick-up window with a few outdoor tables + a bench. The rest of their storefront consists of large windows looking into the kitchen, letting you watch the bakers make your treats. The short line + friendly staff made ordering a breeze! Clarifying point for all the Asians! These are pasteis de natas, meaning crispy, flaky pastry crusts + runny custard fillings. + in Lisbonata's case, the crust is slightly burnt, giving a charred flavor + the custard is literally flowing out of the pastry. They're not your typical Portuguese egg tarts! Additionally, they partner with another small business to sell burritos, which I didn't try because I already ate + they were sold out. Not sure if this is just a weekend thing. What I Ordered: - original: perfectly runny, not too sweet, could consume many - yuzu: really refreshing + unexpectedly good - pistachio cream: my taste buds did not catch any pistachio, but my friend was impressed; crushed topping adds a chewy texture - salted caramel: as a standalone, good balance, but if you're eating multiple, it becomes too sweet, extra runny sauce - belgian chocolate: perfect amount of chocolate - mango sticky rice: best incorporation of this flavor i've tried. custard takes a backseat, could use more mango read more

Lisbonata is a small to-go window, offering different flavors of pastis de nata, from raspberry to yuzu, salted caramel to Belgian chocolate. I tried the tart with pistachio filling. The base was flaky and layered, the filling oozing with custard. The textures were certainly accurate to the egg tarts originating in Lisbon. (And I can say that with certainty as someone who's been there myself!) The pistachio flavor came through strongly, and although that's the whole point of it, I found that the flavor wasn't for me, wishing, in the end, that I had stuck to the original instead. Nonetheless, that's more a matter of preference and doesn't speak to the quality of these well-executed tarts. I invite anyone within the area to try Lisbonata. It certainly took me back to my time in Portugal. read more

Seriously disappointed with my experience here after seeing other reviews. My friends and I were excited about the soft serve. We got the tiramisu and it is very pricey for a very simple cup of average vanilla soft serve with some toppings to make it look fancy but doesnt add much in flavor. Giving them 2 stars because supposedly the pastries are great but the ice cream is a major disappointment. Nice ambiance but long wait in line read more

Quick service but the pasteis de nata was very underwhelming. I ordered the chai flavor and it was undercooked so the custard was falling out of the tart. It was also ice cold when I got it, and I ate it right outside the shop. There's some seating outside and a window for pickup. Not a great pasteis de nata and def not worth a trek read more

Tried the two special egg tart flavors they had and I enjoyed them both.

Lisbonata is a fantastic spot in Crown Heights if you're craving Portuguese egg tarts (pastéis de nata) but don't want to trek to Chinatown. It's a walk-up window with a few outdoor seats, perfect for grabbing a box or enjoying a treat on the spot. The tarts themselves are excellent--the crust is flaky, buttery, and crisp, while the custard is silky smooth, creamy; not overly sweet and no heavy eggy aftertaste, which I really appreciate. If it's your first time, go for the original--it's as close as you'll get to Lisbon in Brooklyn. But Lisbonata shines with its creative flavors: pistachio with a hint of orange blossom, salted caramel, yuzu, and Belgian chocolate. Each flavor adds a fun twist while staying true to the classic. The pistachio and yuzu are personal favorites, though honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them. Service is quick and friendly, and they'll even give you tips on reheating if you take a box home (which you should--these make amazing gifts or party desserts). Just note that because the custard is extra creamy, they're best enjoyed the same day, as the crust will tend to become soggy the following day. The only downside for me is the price. At $4.25 each[1], these are significantly pricier than Chinatown's $1.50-$2.25 range[2]. That said, the egg tarts are truly excellent, and the creative flavors, quality, and care make Lisbonata a unique gem worth the splurge. --------------------------------------------- [1] You save some $ if you buy by the bulk: 4 for $16, 6 for $23, and 12 for $44. [2] You can get an excellent Portuguese egg tart for $1.50 at Harper's Bread House: https://www.yelp.com/biz/harpers-bread-house-inc-new-york read more

If you want Portuguese pastries made fresh daily with a side of espresso then this spot is for you . Service is 1st come 1st , their special menu is hard to get , when they run out , try again the next day, but their pastries is definitely must try 6 flavors, ready to go in a set box, flavor able custard with a burned crisp bottom . Portion is the right side for tea time. No dine in, located on the side of a block , parking is hard to find , atmosphere noise , I drove from Westchester county to Bklyn for their goods. Worth it, they even have merchandise for sell. I happen to drop by on Thursday as street start at 11:30. So there's parking in front of the bakery . That's all the time that's needed , no more than 10 mins to order /pay/ served. read more

It was such a pleasant surprise to find that Lisbonata had their own brick-and-mortar location! I remember really enjoying one of their classic pastel de nata at the farmer's market, but now I don't have to wait for the weekend to grab a little sweet treat. The cafe is tucked away on the side of Saint John's Pl, off busy Franklin Av. It's mostly grab and go, with some limited seating outside. The pasteis are as delicious as I remembered them-- silky, creamy, pudding-soft custard center encased in a flaky pastry shell. They're even better if you grab one fresh out the oven. If you're not eating them right away, I highly recommend reheating them at home right before enjoying. Of the flavors I have tried thus far, I find myself gravitating towards the fruit flavored ones like yuzu and raspberry. The little pop of zestiness helps keep the otherwise decadent dessert from being too indulgent. read more

Been waiting to try this place out! Never had a Pastéis de Nata but it was tasty! Loved the custard filling and the flaky crust. My favorite was the Yuzu and the chocolate.

It was the first time here, we actually in town for an event, so we decided to give them a chance! Full disclosure my husband is Portuguese and we ate a million Pastel de Natas in Portugal! You order at the window and they are made fresh right there! We ordered original ones and a cortado! They have sitting outside if you want. They were nice and warm and my god so flaky! The flavors were on point! Delicious, the only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because the (nata)/custard needs to be thicker! It was to watery, so as you bite into it the custard goes all over! The service was quick and very friendly! Glad we took the time to try them out! Now I miss read more

Absolutely delicious! I loved visiting Lisbonata back when they used to be at the farmer's market in Park Slope and was so excited to hear about their storefront. Exceptional freshly baked pastel de natas at $4/each. The crust is so nice, thin, and crispy and the custard is smooth and creamy. I was really partial to their raspberry flavor.

4 out of 5 stars A sweet slice of Portugal in the heart of Brooklyn! We recently stopped by Lisbonata after hearing a lot of buzz about their pastéis de nata, and it absolutely lived up to the hype--almost! We tried three flavors: original, chocolate, and pistachio. Each one had its own charm, but for us, the original stole the show. It had that perfect balance of flaky, buttery pastry with a rich and creamy custard center. It tasted fresh, just like the ones you'd find in Lisbon. Pure nostalgia in a bite! The chocolate version added a nice twist, more like a dessert on top of a dessert, while the pistachio was fun and slightly nutty, though a bit more subtle in flavor. Great for someone looking for something different but still traditional at the base. The interior of Lisbonata is small but very inviting, with cozy decor and a simple but elegant Portuguese vibe. The staff was friendly and efficient even during a busy rush. You can tell everything is baked with care and pride, and it's clear that locals and tourists alike come here for an authentic taste of Portugal. The only downside--and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5--is the lack of a public restroom. We stayed for a while and wanted to enjoy a few more bites and a coffee, but not having access to a restroom made the visit feel a bit rushed. For a café-style spot that invites you to stay and enjoy, it would be ideal to have that option available. That being said, we would absolutely come back again. The original pastel de nata is now our go-to, and we're already planning to bring friends next time. If you're in Brooklyn and craving something sweet, Lisbonata is a must-visit. Just make a quick pit stop elsewhere if you think you'll need a restroom! read more
