This place is amazing!…read more I don't like olives, I'll pick them out of anything I eat, but this place found a way to put cans worth into a single loaf of their olive bread and I'm addicted! My friend and I are two loaves of it in 5 days! And if olives arent you thing or you're just looking to try something new and unique, I also highly suggest the French onion soup bread (I'm drooling as I am writing and reminiscing about that one). There are plenty of other options here and you can't go wrong with any of them.

They are still moist on the next day. There's a whole display of biscotti near the register. They give a nice sturdy reusable bag for your goodies. Cannoli are filled when you order. It's ok, nothing special.

I was a bit disappointed that the tiramisu was very light on flavor, especially in the ladyfingers. However, the cappuccino was delicious and not overly sweet, which I appreciated. The tres leches was divine... one of the best I've ever had. The servers are all very sweet and talkative! The shop has seating inside and outside, it's a charming little spot.

All in all, fantastic service! -Price- I was having such a good time I honestly was not paying any attention to the prices lol. Looking back at my bank statements, prices are similar to any other establishment these days, but felt more valuable if that makes sense lol -Did Not Like- N/A! -Noteworthy- See service! -Recommend- Yes!

I'm also pretty sure they forgot a pignoli tart and charged me for two because I had asked for two and only got one in the box. The rainbow cookie slice wasn't very flavorful. Overall mediocre. When I get rainbow cookies, I get them for that moist, sweet, cakey-cookie texture and flavor, and this didn't really have that, I mostly tasted the jam they used in between layers. The pignoli tart was dry and I didn't get much of that almondy flavor I usually get from other bakeries. The sfiagtelle wasn't bad, but nothing to write home about. Overall overpriced and quality didn't live up to the price, although unfortunately this is generally not out of the norm for Arthur Ave for a while now.

Well, we gave this place a try by recommendation. Unfortunately, it fell below expectations…read more We tried the veal saltimbocca and the Linguine Alle Vongole. The veal looked great but the flavor was truly lacking. Marsala-like sauce was watery without the rich flavor. Could be so much better. The clams were plentiful but needed a bit more linguine. The sauce was so watery and tasted like just clam juice with barely any flavor at all. Lacked the wine garlic deliciousness that normally comes with this dish. So, we won't be returning. Service was fast and friendly. The restaurant was pleasant overall. Just needs major improvement with food preparation. Flavor makes all the difference.

I don't know if he charged me because he didn't give me an itemized receipt.) I usually go to Brooklyn but I was in the Bronx this go around. Ordered a lot of items and everything was underwhelming. Everything. The rainbow cookies (dry and not flavorful). The chocolate cannolis (wth was that. That was not ricotta cheese and mascarpone cheese filling). The strawberry shortcake cake (fake frosting). The lava cakes. The Oreo cupcakes. Everything tasted fake and blah. Sigh. I spent about $100. I'm thankful he DIDN'T put the marble loaf in my bag. Even if he did end up charging me. Keep it.

If you're in Little Italy in The BX, Gene Bean's your sweet tooth's paradise! This Arthur Ave spot…read moreis your answer for ice cream, Zeppoles, Churros (yeah...those too) and of course- Italian Icee. Hubs and I had the most decadent Lemon Italian Icee at an old-time pizzeria in Brooklyn not long ago. Since then, they've been our trustworthy blueprint for Lemon Icee. Gene Bean's located inside the Arthur Avenue Retail Market and came up as "Ice Cream and Sorbet"- offering other sweet treats too. A big check mark for these guys because these Zeppoles are fresh and fried on the spot- but were heavy and thick- missing that true, light feel. Our Italian Icee experience was decent though. When everything was said and done, popping the trunk to enjoy our treats, was a nice ending in Little Italy at night.

Though again, the staff seemed confused how to make it and kept asking me which ice cream flavor and how many espresso shots. I'd go back for an affogato in the future, in house only.

We grabbed a slice of cake and a couple of drinks, and everything was enjoyable. Nothing was over-the-top, but it definitely hit the spot. It's a comfortable place to relax, catch up with someone, and enjoy a coffee and dessert without feeling rushed. One thing to keep in mind: street parking can be a little tricky depending on the time of day, so plan ahead and give yourself a few extra minutes. Overall, a pleasant local coffee spot that's worth checking out if you're in the area.

The customer service is always excellent. I mean excellent. How could you be angry anyway when you are working with cookies and ice-cream options. Some of the best comfort desserts to have. The prices now could be better, but because of everything being on the higher end of pesos today, lol it is what it is! I like that they do change up the cookies maybe having an limited edition option that is always good. They also have the everyday favorites. Some being served a deluxe size. They also have brownies and brookies for options as well. What ever you buy you want be disappointed because everything is made fresh and served warm. You can even make an ice cream cookie if you want from one of the many delicious flavors available to choose from. I'm giving a thumbs up for this location, but i have been to other locations and I can say that they are not all the same. If your coming to this particular location just watch out for all the craziness that can be going on outside and around this location but once your inside you can forget about all of that chaos because of the warm inviting smell. -Happy Yelping
