Super cute place for a date or catching up with friends. The desserts are very unique and not too sweet. You order your dessert, pay and find your own table (they have an upstairs too snd the seating is very cute). $14-$20 for a cake (but Im pretty sure it's meant to be shared between two people). Recommend if you're in the area!
I really wanted to give it five stars because I loved the vibe and clean atmosphere. The benches upstairs were also turned outwards even though you're sharing a table, which I thought was interesting. The beepers (to let you know when order is ready) were really loud especially when they were all going off at once. The matcha bingsoo was delicious but very small for the amount we paid. It's not unreasonable to give a bit more shaved ice or some other toppings on the side, is it? Considering it's prime real estate in this area, it was still worth the try!
After dinner in Ktown, we stopped by here for some dessert. The space is clean, minimal, and spacious. All of the sets and dessert are also so aesthetic, but definitely pricey. We decided to get the Da-On Sang Set ($26) and Injeolmi Bingsoo ($21). Everything came out so quick --it was ready within a minute after we ordered. To start off, the bingsoo was super soft and silky. We really liked this one, especially the muted and nutty soy bean flavor of the injeolmi. As for the da-on set, I really didn't care for this one at all besides how cute it is. Everything was too sweet that we didn't finish any of these small bites unfortunately. It was also kind of tough to cut and share, especially with the wooden knives we were given. I'd mainly come here for the bingsoo. It's also a nice spot to get some work done or hang out.
I don't understand all the good reviews for this place??? I had the worst experience here. First of all- confusing checkout process. I was told the tea set is for dine in service only so when checking out, I paid a 20% tip but then I find out there is NO service & everything is self serve (pick up at the counter and also bus your dishes yourselves). Secondly, how is this $40? Definitely not worth it. The tea is much too mild, the strawberry cake was disgusting and really hard (and the fruit didn't taste fresh...). I liked the Yakgwa and that was the only thing I liked. And then the most important issue I had was the lack of sanitation. The dishes and cups were dirty. There was lint, hair, dirt in the cups and the teapot. I don't understand why they didn't wash them. I complained and got a partial refund at least. But they also made an excuse about why the ceramics were dirty and apparently the only way to guarantee cleanliness is to use a disposable plastic cup. The place is pretty but that's it. Also there was a guy sitting across from us who complained that he wasn't given the espresso that came with his tiramisu. He asked and they forgot and he had to buy another one, so they didn't even comp him for their mistake. So it's not even consistent since I got a partial refund but he didn't and had to pay full price TWICE.
Service was fine. If you go before 5 you cant get the shaved ice so I got the yuzuade and tiramisu. I really enjoyed the yuzuade it was sweet and refreshing and the tiramisu was creamy delicious and has a very strong espresso on the side. The café is very bright and spacious with two bathroom at the end and a second floor but I didnt go upstairs.
It was around 4pm on Sunday when we came to Seoul Sweets. It was pretty packed, but we found seating for 2 upstairs. There is a kiosk at the entrance for those who want to see what is available. If you come with more than one person, I recommend finding a seat first before ordering. Unfortunately, half of the drink options were grayed out, so we ordered the Mugwort Einspänner and Black Sesame Einspänner ($8.50 each). Pricey with small portions, but flavor is good. There is a bathroom upstairs and 2 downstairs. The café is a nice place to chill.
Cute dessert selection. The matcha mochi has fresh and juicy strawberry in the middle. It's definitely an upgrade from a regular mochi. I love the Dubai cookie. The pistachio filling has good amounts of kanafee, wrapped in mochi . So crunchy. To go container is quite sturdy to protect delicate pastries. The guy at the counter is very quiet and stoic. Clean store with some some seatings.
Overall: 5 stars Upscale Korean sweets shop with an immaculate vibe and spacious seating for casual work and conversation. The desserts run pricey, but I sampled their matcha mochi and was incredibly impressed on all accounts. The strawberry was firm and one of the sweetest I've had all year, the matcha was grassy and intense, and the mochi is soft and pillowy. Very much looking forward to trying the rest on the menu.

Nice spacious atmosphere and unique desert. We went after dinner on a Saturday evening after 9pm and it was still very crowded. Choices of deserts were limited as they had sold out of a lot of their items. We had the strawberry mochi, the Joo Ak (fried rice donut) and a vanilla latte. Everything was tasty. Mochi and Joo Ak were both chewy, nice texture, not too sweet. I would have loved to try some of their other items. I did think some of their "sets" and mini cakes were priced a little on the high side. There is seating available upstairs. There is a designated area upstairs on the side where you can return your dishes and treys. Would like to come back but next time a little earlier to have more options.
Such a cute cute place! It's very aesthetic inside and how they present their items! We got the strawberry mochi set, strawberry latte, and original einspanner. The strawberry mochi set came with mochi sheets, strawberries, red bean, and condense milk. It was a perfect combination of sweetness. The red bean wasn't too sweet which is perfect. Such a good light snack and perfect for pictures! The original einspanner was super creamy, not too sweet. The coffee is a bit strong so if you're a coffee lover, it's a must try! The strawberry latter was on the sweeter side, it was light and refreshing. Everything came out quickly, the workers gave good suggestions as well! I would definitely come back to this cafe to try out their other desserts!! There's cake and different dessert sets that look amazing read more

Stopped by a popular dessert place in Ktown. The strawberry mochi set and cake were underwhelming--flavor was bland and nothing special (2/5). The black sesame with a shot of cappuccino, however, was excellent--rich and well-balanced (5/5). The place was busy, but tables weren't being cleared promptly, which made it hard to find a clean spot. Service could definitely improve (2/5). Come for the sesame dessert, but don't expect much from the strawberry items or the table turnover. read more

We really liked this place!! I came here with my partner for a quick coffee in the morning and the interior is beautiful. We came early enough that the restaurant was quiet and calm with music playing in the background. Service was quick too and they dont rush anyone to leave. I have not tried the desserts so I cannot comment about that but the drinks we got were delicious!! read more
It's a really nice establishment and super spacious but this.. is not worth $40. Staff was nice but I think ordering off the kiosk would've been a better choice. They didn't really study their menu to be able to tell us exactly what came with our order. You also avoid the awkward tip screen because you have to bring the tray to your table yourself and then clean up after yourself so it's not even a service. Other dessert places around the area are much better options. read more
Korean cafes here in New York's K-town are a nice spot to relax, get some work done, or meet up with some friends for a causal hangout. Seoul Sweets is the epitome of that and now a go-to when I'm in the area. The decor felt sophisticated in both of its levels. The bottom floor gave a busy cafe feel where there were individual tables to hunker down and do work, while upstairs is more brightly lit and made for get-togethers. You order everything from the machine when you first enter. Once your order is placed, head inside on the first floor for them to prepare the actual items. During my first visit, I ordered a lemonade to sip and tried their Strawberry Daifuku with red bean. On my second visit, I ordered a Strawberry Matcha Latte with non-dairy milk, and sipped on that for hours upstairs while doing some work on their good Wi-Fi connection. One recommendation I have for them is to have a nutrition/ingredients menu available or to mark items on what it may contain allergen wise. The staff misinformed me about a few items that I'm sure weren't actually vegan but I didn't let that bother me too much. Still, it'd be important and easier for them if they had better labels. read more
Very cute decor and design, but the food is dense. Typical cakes you'd imagine have a fluffiness to it, here, they are very dense and solid, they look a lot better than they taste. The drinks have a musk to it. Taste: 2/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value for money: 2/5 read more
Very aesthetic cafe! We tried the bingsoo and it was delicious the only complaint is that it was very hard to get seats, since people work there and stay. Their sweets look really pretty so hoping to come back to try more! read more
We stopped by this cafe and it was so cute! So many cute pastries and drinks. I ended up getting the strawberry matcha and honestly it was so expensive. It tasted good, but if you come here get the pastries and other drinks. There's so many other places to get matcha in NYC. read more
Passing by this place as we headed for our dinner reservation, we decided we definitely wanted to try desserts here instead of at the restaurant where we were headed, and we were so glad we did. After dinner, we came back feeling a bit too full, so we shared the matcha bingsoo. It was incredible because it was light and not overwhelming, with no extra things like mochi and tapinaki. This had light shaved "snow" with matcha ice cream, topped with matcha powder and syrup. It was not overly sweet, thankfully, and it was the perfect way to conclude the night. They have three types of bingsoos: matcha, mango, and strawberry. There are two kiosks by the entrance that we used to see what the different bingsoo would look like. You can place your entire order at the kiosk if it makes it easier for you, but I definitely urge you to go in and see their entire dessert offerings. Their dessert display is quite extensive, and all the desserts looked quite pretty. Being so late, we chose not to have coffee, but they offered complimentary herb-flavored water on the side by the cashier. The aesthetic is serene and modern. There's fun music playing in the background, but we were still able to hold a conversation without resorting to shouting. There were signs displayed on the wall requesting us to leave the dishes on the table after eating, and the staff quickly came over to take the dishes and cups away and clean the table and seats. The service was quick, and the servers are very friendly and helpful should you have any questions. Their presentation as they serve their drinks and desserts is very well thought out, and they take great pride in making it a wonderful experience for you. read more

I finally got the chance to try Seoul Sweets. Let me start by saying everything is delicious! I tried their tea set and cannot wait to go back and try more! Ordered at the kiosk in the vestibule and then sat upstairs. The ambiance was soooo aesthetically pleasing. Interior was designed so relaxing; I could see myself stopping here and doing work while enjoying a sweet treat. Everything came out rather quickly. Highly recommend read more

I like the concept of this place, but was very disappointed by the food. Desserts seem more pretty versus actually tasting good or even seeming fresh. Came on a weekend afternoon and there was no line, but lots of people seated. Seems to be a popular place to study, read, just hangout, etc. Quite large with an upstairs and has a nice ambiance. Unfortunately I found the desserts to be a disappointment. Everything lacked flavor and it didn't taste fresh - textures even felt off for some of them (overly dry or really hard). I ordered one of the dessert sets that comes with multiple things (see photo). It's a good price, but again, nothing tasted fresh so I only took a bite out of each. Also got some of the cakes and felt similarly. I will say, the tea was quite good, so maybe this is more of a drink hangout spot! read more
Passed by this place for coffee on a late night- got the einspanner and the black sesame einspanner and these drinks were GREAT. Not to mention that the interior is light airy and zen, it was also filled with patrons. Service was friendly and fast. Would recommend for dessert and drinks! read more
A charming dessert spot with a cozy and inviting vibe. Ambience (5/5): Cute, modern, and relaxing -- perfect for a casual dessert outing. Food (4/5): The strawberry mochi set was good (5/5), but I didn't enjoy the rice cakes (3/5) just not my preference. Value (4/5): Fair prices for the quality and portion size. Service (4/5): Friendly and efficient staff who keep things running smoothly. read more
Wanted to try a Korean dessert place while in the area. It's dessert based on rice-mochi material and this had enhanced flavor of Injeolmi. It was a small piece but tasted delicious and was just the right amount with a cup of cappuccino. read more

Rating: 3.8/5 [dine in] Really cute café with two levels and a nice seating area upstairs. It seems like a popular study spot. You can order from the kiosk by the front door or inside on the first floor. I tried the Strawberry Matcha Latte with Oat Milk ($10). Honestly, it felt overpriced. The matcha was just okay, but the homemade strawberry syrup was delicious--sweet, flavorful, and had real strawberry bits in it. I also got the Black Sesame Einspänner ($8 for 12 oz), which I really liked. The espresso was strong and the black sesame flavor came through nicely. The only thing was that it had way too much whipped cream for my taste. read more
I was walking through Koreatown just happened past this place and instantly knew I needed to go in. Had a very chic sort of modern vibe, in the view of the treats is basically irresistible. If I'm being honest, I really would have gotten a full tray with a whole selection of sweets on it, but I had already had dinner so I couldn't eat very much. However the sweets were too enticing, and they didn't disappoint. My order was good, and I would recommend both items, especially the joo-ak. But I strongly suspect that if one is gonna do this place right they should get one of the full trays. read more
Fell in love with this cafe the moment I walked in! Such a cute and spacious spot in K-Town, NYC. It's a great place to chat with friends or get some work done. The cafe has both a first and second floor, with a modern interior that still gives off authentic Korean vibes. I loved the Einspanner. I was too full to try the desserts, like the roll cakes, but I can't wait to come back and try them next time. read more
I love it here. The Koreans take cafe culture so seriously and I am so happy to see it in NYC. I've seen cafes with a waterfall in Seoul. Just stunning. The decor is so lovely. Clean, quiet and nature themed. The desserts are so cute. For card put in your order at the kiosk, cash at the register. They also give you free skincare samples. I have never seen that before at a cafe before (what I say about the Koreans? STUNNING). Anyways I'm coming back whenever I'm in the area. Love it. read more
