Half the box of cookies because I finished half as soon as I opened it. The pumpkin cookie is seasonal.
Clarissa B.

I cannot get enough of this bakery's cookies. Even from outside the store, you can smell their divine baked goods. My favorite cookies are the ones with the maraschino cherry in the middle - I could eat an entire pound of them in one sitting if I let myself indulge fully. I usually get a bit over half a pound of cookies and find their cookies to be moist but wonderfully crumbly at the same time. Their cookies with the long sprinkles, the raspberry linzer sandwiched cookies, and the triple colored layer cookies are my favorite. I really don't want to start competition with other local bakeries because they all bring something unique to the Astoria table, but I prefer this one by far to others on Broadway, despite selection being mostly cookie-focused. I have yet to try their bread because I'm so hyperfixated on their cookies. The cashier is always quite nice and bears with me as I try to numerically qualify how much of each cookie I want. It goes something like "six of those on the left with the cherry in the middle - five of the ones with rainbow sprinkles - the long rainbow sprinkles! etc...". I think I'll check if they each have official names next time so I take a little less time, but they've been so accommodating. Anyway, I'm glad this place exists so I can get my cookie groove on as often as possible. Also to note: This place has changed the cherry cookie game for me - I can no longer go elsewhere for them because they're top tier here.

Good bakery in Astoria to grab a bag of baked goods and sweet treats to bring home, along with fresh breads. Well priced and tasty. Their rainbow cookies are really good! Black and whites too. Breads, cookies, pastries you can't go wrong.

Display case.

Always quality, since forever and a day. The bread here is always so good. Stop by and try some you won't be disappointed.

I stumbled onto this place on my way home after a huuugggee meal at Astoria Seafood. I wanted something sweet and a cup of coffee. Thanks to my fellow Yelpers, I ended up here. It's an unassuming storefront, so I wasn't sure what to expect. It's also small without a lot of selection, so I was worried I wouldn't like it. I ordered a slice of their raspberry crumb cake, a few mini eclairs and a cappucino. The raspberry crumb cake is out of this world! At first, I thought it would be dry because the cake portion is so big, but I was wrong. The streusel on top is amazing as well. It adds a nice sweetness and crunch. My husband loved the eclairs and ended up bringing a box of them home. My lesson learned: never judge a book by it's cover. I'm glad I discovered this place and have been back even though it's so out of my way!

Best Itallian Hard bread in the world. I only wish some one would come close to the taste texture of their bread in Jamaica or nassau county

It's one of the more pleasant spaces to pass an afternoon in what I suppose is now called "Dutch Kills." We were here at an odd hour and so just opted for the masala chai, which was mediocre. But when we opened up our plate of steamed chive momos upon getting home, it was a revelation. These are the best vegetarian (or vegan) momos I've had in the city. They have a mix of shredded tofu which gives an excellent blend of creaminess to the sharp taste of the chives. Truly delicious. The chutneys are also excellent - I liked the dry chili sauce best of all. Next time I will try the oyster mushrooms momos too.

I cannot say I was expecting the food to be this damn good out of a seemingly random Mexican place…read morethat just happened to be near where we were. I hadn't seen Tacos Gobernador on any Mexican restaurant menu before. These are sinaloan-style tacos, stuffed with the fresh shrimp abundant in the region. This is the second time I'm saying this in the first four sentences, but these were amazing. First of all - they were huge! Way larger than normal tacos, these tortillas stretch across the plate. The outsides are perfectly crisped up - these are kind of a mix between a soft & hard shell taco, but incorporating the best of both worlds. The amount of oil used in the grilling is perfect. What really makes these though, is the fillings. The shrimp is unbelievable - first of all, its the largest shrimp I've ever seen inside a taco. I mentioned how large these tacos are, but the shrimp bursts out of the top like a xenomorph out of a chest; there's little containment to be had here. These shrimp are seasoned astoundingly, turning practically a dark red from the spices used. Oh yeah, and the juiciness is just perfect. They are so well cooked. The other outstanding part is the cheese. The Oaxacan cheese is special - it's some of the best cheese I've ever had on a taco. Hot, soft, and stretchy with a perfect level of melting, it adds a crazy amount of flavor to each bite. The other toppings are solid, but some more onions would've helped I think. Also, the dipping sauce used is around average, and unnecessary. This was kind of expensive for 3 tacos - coming in at $25 before tax and tip. It was a ton of food though. Overall, a new variation of taco I think I'm absolutely in love with. 9.25/10

It can be a little confusing to find since it's a stand inside the market, not a separate store front. They carry a pretty wide variety of Asian flavor-inspired breads, pastries, cakes and cookies, including buns and some more dessert-type items. I checked out Progreso for an event this past weekend and ended up buying a few items to go: - matcha marble sponge cake $4.49: was fluffy, light and moist, good flavor of matcha and a light schmear of whipped cream in the middle. Would get this again! - taro cream puff $6.50: this was taro paste (? not sure if that's fully accurate though it felt more consistency of soft whipped taro than a traditional pastry cream) with whipped cream on top sandwiched by what I believe was choux pastry with craquelin. I think maybe because the this was sitting chilled/refrigerated for a while the top craquelin layer wasn't quite crispy anymore, though it looked nice. Personally it was a bit too much regular whipped cream, would've preferred more of a taro pastry cream. - mango pudding with fresh mango $6.50 mango flavor in the pudding was light though it was a nice tease of flavor. The texture was on the firmer side for puddings. The mangos were a bit oxidized though tasted ok, maybe glaze them or do something to maintain the color? Since this is a pretty new spot hope they could make a few improvements and blow it out of the park! I appreciated the owners' enthusiasm for sharing about their shop.

I'm definitely happy i visited Progreso cafe it is an amazing little cafe which was a little tricky to find because it's inside a market. The cafe was awesome, the food looked delicious the service was fast. The workers were extremely friendly, it was a great experience. I got the strawberry dragon it was absolutely fantastic and so so delicious. I have recently started getting into matcha and the drink had matcha with like strawberries in it. My first ever experience with a matcha strawberry combination. I'm definitely going to go to progreso cafe very soon again. I'm definitely going to try out more of the pastries. On top of pastries looking so good I'm also very curious about the meat buns. They have so many choices in progreso and I can't wait to try everything. All the drinks look so so good but Im definitely happy I got the strawberry dragon as my first but it won't be my last. If you like cafe pastries and meats buns please go and support progreso. For the people who will have a hard time finding it, it's located inside a market called koufuku market
