Dessert Lover's Heaven – This bakery and cafe has the largest selection of desserts in Manhattan. Great food and service. I waited for 30 minutes for seating at 10PM on a Saturday night. Highly recommended.

Cannoli and Sicilian Cheesecake – Even if you never get to Sicily, you don't have to "miss out" on their cannoli and cheesecake (Sicilian cheesecake is basically cannoli filling cheesecake). Seriously, it's like my Sicilian grandmother made them for me in her kitchen in Italy! Their espresso drinks are impeccable too. Can't recommend it enough.

Don't miss this one – Can't go to New York and not stop here. It's one of the biggest things I miss about N.Y. The other bakeries are great but this one is outstanding. Now that I liveout of state I appreciate it more than ever. Nothing here comes close.

This is it, the good stuff, the reason NYC is the center of the world. Absolutely the best Italian pastry shop in NYC. Criticism of the service is probably justified (though I have not had problems) because when this place is crowded (as usual, Friday and Saturday evenings) all Hell breaks loose. The only weak spot is the gelato. Whether you like each desert will depend on taste. But overall, this is the best. Ferrara's, by the way, alluded to in another review of Veniero's, is expensive and impoverished by comparison. I hav... read more

can·no·li – Forget the cheesecake, Veniero's has the best cannolis in the city. Perhaps, the best outside of Italy. I'm currently in Los Angeles just thinking about Veniero's - the atmosphere - the neighborhood - oh and man oh man - the chocolate chip cannolis. Thank you Veniero's. Oh, and yeah, I have waited on line the night before Thanksgiving for one of their cheesecakes - well worth the hour wait and you get to meet some of NYCs finest too!

best dessert – mixed fruit tart and cheese cake are one-of-a-kind. the pastries are not as good as the cakes. there are a total of 2 waiters/waitresses which make service slow. lines are almost always long.

Yummy Yummy Pastries – Once you eat these pastries, you will not be able to eat regular grocery store pastries again. So many choices here. Get the ones with the fruit and you can't go wrong!

To Fulfill a sweet tooth – The desserts are just divine here. Typical Italian desserts, no surprises. Try the cannolis and tiramisu. And it is fairly priced. Just dont count on the service to be pleasant or helpful. They are there to get you in and get you out as fast as possible.

tasty treats and more! – went on sunday evening w/ friends and all were knocked into a serious sugar eutopia by the time we left....everthing from the canoli's to cookies, to cakes were all sinfully delicious....highly recommend trying the sparkling brut wine w/ cannoli or chocolate treats. while the wait for your order is a lil on the slow side (plus surly attitude of some of the staff), the quality of the treats makes it worth!!!
