“Very friendly service .delicious patés.Key improvement would be to have patés available at all times. 9 times out of 10 they're not ready yet and we have to wait for them to be put in the oven or come out of the oven.Considering the parking is lacking in the neighborhood, it's difficult to keep your car double parked and wait fifteen to twenty minutes each time, even after you've called ahead.“
“Been here twice already and I'll be coming back! I love supporting small family owned shops but it's easy here because the desserts/pastries here are delicious. The desserts are Filipino-inspired which is not commonly seen in this area. I've tried their basque cheesecake, ube donut, and their Bicho bicho, along with the ube foam iced coffee. I'm not even a big fan of ube but that recommended ube donut was a pleasant surprise. I'll be back to try their croissants :-)“
“I’m one of their repeated customer not only for the authenticity of their Italian pastries cakes and and gelato… but also for their will yo make me happy every time I ask if they can do something outside of their menu…i love visit and have my cappuccino at the place where I get to unwind. The owner know me as soon as I walk in and they already know what my usual is ☺️. I dine in but I also take a lot to go …. Everything is good I will just mark some of my repeatsDietary restrictions: If in doubt ask the server“
“At first glance, you would think this shop is just a wholesaler, but to my surprise you can actually buy boxes too!! They have a wide array/variety of sweets and all of them looked heavenyl. The gentleman whowas running the place is extremely professional and helpful. He allowed me to sample 4-5 pieces of the sweet itself. I ended up buying 4 small boxes and 2 big boxes. Toally affordable priced as well! My favorite was definitely the “Mango barfi” which is a milk based sweet. I finally have a place i can go to for all my sweet needs! Especially since it is Ramadan and sweets are necessary for every iftaar.“
“Way more than just an espresso bar. They have a kitchen and bakery and all of the food and deserts are amazing. The best coffee I've ever had as well. The prices are some of the cheapest you can find these days. It's a phenomenal place in every “
“We booked our son’s baptism with Frank’s steaks in RVC and they are affiliated with whistle stop for the occasion cake. I was so blown away by this cake I had to come and make a review. It’s so hard to find a good sheet cake for special occasions. The flavor and texture of the cake was so delicious. We chose a chocolate mouse filling and it exceeded our expectations. The cake was so so delicious and beautifully decorated, which is also hard to come by with these types of cakes. I would definitely use them for future occasion cakes. It was perfect and my guests were asking where the cake was from so they could use in the future. Thank you so much whistle stop. :)“
“These are all my cookies i have ever gotten from crumbl. They were all delicious. Cannot eat a whole cookie in one sitting tbh but that is not a bad thing at all! That means I can savor the cookie over a period of time woo! My favs from the times I've got crumbl were blueberry cheesecake, snickerdoodle cupcake, cannoli and cinnamon square! Many awesome and yummy flavors. The store is very clean and smells of fresh cookies. Yummmm“
“We ordered The Crepe house and the cinnamon toast crunch crepe. Both crepes were delicious. If you want something not soo sweet I would recommend The crepe house. The Cinnamon toast crepe was more on the sweeter side. Will definitely be coming back. Service was great too!“
“This old-school Asian bakery serves some of the best sponge cakes that are, you guessed it, not too sweet. Yeh's Bakery has been a staple in Flushing for 36 years. Their Boston Cream Pie is made out of two layers of sponge cake and fresh cream, and is one of their best sellers. If you want it, make sure to come early because sometimes they sell out. It's so light and airy, so soft and fluffy, and so freaking good. Sponge cakes are already good, but sponge cakes with cream are even better. Yeh's also serves slices of some of their light, airy, and soft sponge cakes for $1.70 (sliced flavors like the green tea and vanilla, but not the strawberry or taro). Whole rolls go for $15 each. Cakes start at 8 inches with flavors including vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, green tea, taro, and chestnut. You can even make the cakes into a heart shape! For their egg tarts, their custard is very light and soft. Great for people who don't like their egg tarts too creamy or heavy! Being a Taiwanese bakery, they also sell Taiwanese pineapple cakes at $2 each with two cake rectangles inside. The next time I go to Taiwan, imma eat pineapple cakes like these everyday. Don't forget to bring cash! What we ordered: Boston cream pie $2.75 green tea sponge cake $1.70 egg tart $1.70 Taiwanese pineapple cake $2 Total: $8.15“
“Wanted a nice cup of velvety not too sweet strong coffee! Found this gem and the Lady up front so sweet! Recommended a macchiato. Got the vanilla flavor and she made it perfect! So happy found another coffee spot that is worth the beans for your bucks! And service too!“
“Catered large Trays Mini Cassava balls Salt Fish Cakes with the sauces Tamarind and Mango . Delicious delicious delicious . All our guests could not stop talking about these appetizers. OMG JERK CHICKEN TO DIE FOR - Spicy and tender N JUICY leaves you wanting more. Again all our guests chattering about how delicious the jerk chicken was. MAC N CHEESE for the Vegetarians flavorful cheesy n delicious . My new go to for friends and family gatherings.“
“My bias bakery in the area now! So glad I found them!♥️♥️♥️ I tried lot of items.My favorite bread was the ?injeolmi cream bun! Which was red bean paste with soybean-flavored cream. Moist and creamy in each bite.Croissant items were good too, but couldn’t beat my first above. Salt butter ones were good choices.Pretzel was a little bit too soft for me, but the fig and nuts cream cheese was delicious.Last but not the least, ? bingsu was amazing..! It was a little bit pricy, but a huge bowl! The milk shaved ice was sooo rich.The only thing I would critique is coffee. Good coffee bean but the cappuccino was not creamy at all. Hopefully they can improve drinks!Parking: 4 in front of the store“
“I just stumbled upon this cute little shop & I’m obsessed! Great customer service and treats! I can’t wait to be back and try the espresso.The owner is so lovely - gave me a free espresso cupcake so I can give it a try! It was yummy “
“Can’t sing their praises high enough, the man and woman who work behind the counter here every day always know your order, greet you with a friendly good morning and treat everyone with respect. They work hard and obviously care about their customers. I even started learning some Albanian words and phrases to show the care and respect is mutual. Great coffee at good prices, good pastry and love the organic environmentally friendly soaps and other products too. They are a huge plus for the neighborhood.“
“This is a must try for all those with a bit of a sweet tooth. Their cupcakes are soooo good. The owner is such a nice person, and you can taste the love put into the food. Thank you for your generosity and kind spirit.Friendly neighborhood amazon delivery driver ?“
“This place looks very artsy on the outside, once you step inside you feel like you’re at home with the decor. There are two self serve kiosks which are really well designed and easy to use. The food is absolutely delicious and reasonably priced! Definitely come here for authentic Korean street food.“
“This place has amazing food and brings so much nostalgia for authentic Korean corn dogs, twist bread, and donuts. Service is great. I highly recommend the corn dogs and korean donuts, as well as sweet potato ball. Reserve ahead of time for pickup if you are ordering for a group.Vegetarian options: Sweet potato balls, twist bread, corn dogs“
“I never had Mochi donuts and wanted to try and found this gem! Glad I came here to try their sweets. Mochi donuts were amazing as well as the fat macarons. They were tasty with the perfect amount of sweet! Whenever I'm in the area, I will be sure to stop by again.“
“Gelato is tasty and superb . ButThe ladies behind the counter had a noticeably annoying attitude . Maybe ill give them the benefit if the doubt that it was near closing time and there was still a handful of customersJust wanted to point that out because I know businesses always strive for improvement“
“＊Sweet Potato CroffleA delicate croffle topped with goguma mousse and whipped cream, sprinkled with ube powder. The goguma paste was subtly sweet with a melt-in-your-mouth smooth texture. My preferred flavor because I LOVE sweet potatoes.＊Blueberry CroffleGenerously spread with housemade blueberry cream cheese and fresh blueberries on top, the croffle doubled up the blueberry flavors.“
“Naira Bread is a West African Store with Nigeria food….You can get one of the best popular Nigeria bread ( Agege Bread) here in loaf or Sliced with anything to go with it, e.g Nigeria local beans with the native stew to blend with it. You can’t regret it. An amazing “
“A lovely, sunny and delicious respite from the cares of the world... How wonderful to find a place that serves top notch vegan fare--both sweet and some savory offerings too. Loved the rainbow cookies, Jamaican Patty and the black cake. The layer cakes are spectacular as well. Coffee, tea, chai, cappuccino--just some of the hot drink offerings to go with your treats. The owners are most congenial and welcoming, serving you with utmost care and attention. The bakery is light and airy with several tables to dine at. Located across the street from the Glen Oaks library on Union Turnpike, there is ample street parking as well as the large parking lot located behind the bakery. There is convenient access to public transportation too: the Q36 and Q46 stop steps away. My family and I truly enjoyed our time at Rose Valley bakery and cannot wait to do so again!“
“Food was amazing and the service was even better. The kind woman who served me gave me some samples of the other meats which were so delicious. The baked chicken and pork chop were falling off the bone so tender and flavorful. Tried their homemade passion fruit juice and it tastes amazing! Can’t wait to come back and try other things on the menu!“
“First time here with my family! Lovely place with all the sweets! Owner very friendly! We got two cupcakes, a chocolate brownie and a coconut ube cookie! Cookie not too sweet, cupcakes are delicious and the chocolate brownie definitely my favorite ^u^ Will definitely go back and try the rest of the sweets that they have!“
“Came in to snag a chocolate chip and one of the employees blessed me with free iced cream with my warm cookie and mannnnnn that was the best cookie combo I ever had, I ended up buying my girlfriend one. I’ll for sure be back to try all the flavors.“
“Baking skills are top notch. This is a rare find especially in Queens. I had to order 32 cupcakes for my sister baby shower, half of the cupcakes were of an intricate design and the other was a simple cupcake design with sprinkles. And my socks were knocked off with how well the cupcakes turned out they look exactly like the reference photos. They were a hit at the baby shower, everyone was impressed by the taste and the look. Only place in Queens where you can get high quality baked goods for such an amazing price. I have to say the deserts from Plum Blossom is so much better than Martha's and Magnolia Bakery.“
“I have to share my experience with the special bread we call it shoureki , We usually use it for special occasions. It was out of this world, the flavours of bread it stays not only in your mouth it follows you in your mind like you're gonna have more ,even if you have to watch out ,it is worth it, we thank you.“
“This cake was beyond beautiful! It exceeded my expectations ?? The service for ordering was so easy and simple. Oh and by the way it was deliciously made as well. My daughter had specifically requested this cake for her 16th bday and she was extremely happy when she saw it. Thank you Blue Royale Cakes for making my daughter’s cake one of the best yet!“
“I have never been here before, but would always drive past it. The new ownership is very friendly and the cafe is so cozy and vibey. This is a great place to catch up with a friend and have a sweet time. Also, the bathroom is clean (big plus for me). I will absolutely be coming back.“
“Ambiance? Not much. Food? Excellent. I've bought their black forest cake many times. The bf cake is perfect - cake is moist, chocolatey and not that heavy. Ratio of cream to cake, should by appearance be too much cream but the cream is light and fluffy and turns out to be well balanced. The guys that run the place are good too - no nonsense and good at what they do.“
“Delicious neighborhood bakery. Wish they were open daily! Placed an order on the phone with Joe a week before an event, he said I didn't need to leave a deposit. Went back the day of, the cake and pastries were ready! Amazing service! Thank you“
“Today I purchased some cupcakes and they were phenomenal!! Highly recommend coming here for desserts. I have been wanting to try their stuff for a minute now and today I had a sweet tooth, and it was definitely exceptional. Definitely will be spreading the word and will be coming back.“
“Great local bakery. Everything is always fresh the only complaint I would have is that they are cash only and usually you will have to wait for the ladies behind the counter to finish with their phones or conversation before they acknowledge you. Otherwise the food and pastries are top notch“
“Anita is exceptional. Her cakes and desserts were delicious and a highlight of my sister’s baby shower. She’s professional, thorough and attentive. Anita’s email and number have a permanent home in my contacts. Do yourself a favor and book with her.“
“My first time trying this place since it changed its name. We ordered tamales, tacos and a torta. Tamales taste authentic, much larger than what I’m used too, but that’s a plus. Torta had a lot of meat, very good. Tacos were also very good, and loaded with meat. I enjoyed the salsa verde and the spicy red salsa as well. I’ve been hoping for a good authentic Mexican spot in Whitestone so I don’t have to drive to College Point or Corona, so glad I gave this place another chance.“
“To begin with... it fills me with joy to have a Uruguayan Bakery near where I live, nothing better than having things that make you remember your beloved homeland. We come very often to eat here and buy takeaway. The cakes that I order are delicious, everyone is super satisfied and happy with the quality. The cream on the outside is always super sweet, but these cakes don't make you sick and make you want to continue eating more! Congratulations to the pastry chef who is a genius! Everything else we have bought is always fresh. The crumb sandwiches that you always worry are not going to be fresh, well here they are always delicious and fresh. Spectacular attention as always! Many thanks for everything!“
“(Translated by Google) Excellent and cozy I loved the homemade flavor that I found in this place, everything was very fresh and I felt very well attended (Original)Excelente y acogedor me encanto el sabor casero que encontré en este lugar todo muy fresco y muy bien atendida me sentí“
“Been standard for years in my household to come here for birthday cakes. Nothing needs to be changed, they're doing great work without having to sling cake pops. Consistent, great quality, always experienced quick and friendly service.“
“Ordered the fresh cream cake with strawberry filling for a birthday last week- compliments all around from the guests! The delivery driver through door dash was unresponsive but I called the shop and she had a back up plan in case the cake didn’t show! Really thankful for how helpful she was!“
“Great bakery with amazing sandwiches and pastries. Now they opened a meat restaurant next door!! I took my daughter to eat at Noir last night. Was really good! The plum salad with the citrus beet dressing was amazing. Like so fresh and we couldn’t get enough of that dressing!!! And I loved the shaved fennel salad too…my daughter doesn’t like fennel so, more for me!!! We shared the schnitzel because I heard it was the best and it was so yummy! perfectly crunchy and tasty and moist. The servers were friendly and attentive. The dining room filled up while we were there, on a random Tuesday!! And everyone seemed to be enjoying. Can’t wait to go back.“
“Had an amazing time there as the owner is so personable and aims to have a “small cafe in Connecticut kind of feel” which I definitely got. She really works to personalize your orders and is willing to try new recipes. I got the chocolate chip and strawberry cheesecake, apple cinnamon muffins, chocolate cupcakes, chocolate mousse, chocolate chip cookies , double chocolate cookies, and bloodies which all tasted incredible! I highly recommend anyone with a special diet whether it be gluten (which she has a separate area of the kitchen for), vegan, kosher, etc. this is your place!“
“I'll be the dumb upstate tourist who says this eatery is named after Dua Lipa's father! I really enjoyed the savory meat burek, fabulous alternative to pizza. "Burek Oboma" means "burek for the both of them!" Also have a can of Golden Eagle, the soon-to-be famous Kosovo energy drink.“
“Dinning in to sucre verse was a good experienced for me the food is amazing its not a commercial food it feels like your in your house .. the staff was very respectful and service was excellent. Very friendly environment well manner people … I keep on coming back for brunch and dinner.. one thing I like most if you crave for some filipino or whatever dish the chef /owner will make it for you but one day before or time frame is a matter so he can market freshly cook and served it for you … I love their coffee , tea and dessert as well❤️ the owner was very nice too!!!!“
“Very convenient location..Perfect spot for enjoying a cup of coffee..I ordered the crunch dessert and it was delicious!..loved it..it was a Nutella dream come true..but we also ordered the tiramisu and that was disappointing..the coffee powder was thick instead of a light coat so the first bites tended to be dry..there was a cream colored swirl topping that we thought was a soft cream..it wasn't..it was hard and very bland tasting..tiramisu wasn't worth the price..“
“Best pastries, friendly owners & staff, have been getting my cookies, pastry, from them for years. Oh,! And they sell their delicious ricotta cheese cake by the slice.Parking: ConvenientWheelchair accessibility: Accessible from the street no stairs“
“We are new to the area and wanted to try it. We came in January but they were closed for the month! Today they were open and I ordered 2 chocolate croissants before I found out they only take Venmo or cash. They were kind enough to take my $7 and and a IOU. The chocolate croissant was good although the only other time I had one was in Paris, the one in Paris was better. But I will be back to pay what I owe and try what the reviewers recommend!“
“The cookies here are to die for! Surprisingly they also sell donut holes. And for the price, variety, and taste they are an absolute must! I got one of each flavor, and each one was better then the next. Like..Tim hortons and dunkin who? Hahaha. For only $15 we got a mini carrot cake, a dozen donut holes, and a large sprinkle cookie. What a deal! The shop is so quaint and they have so much to choose from. You can even get dog treats, edible cake decorations prepacked loaf cakes and cookies.Even though they take credit cards, they have an ATM inside for convenience. So if you're trying to hop on the RVC train and need cash, you can quickly open in.Parking is metered street parking. There is more parking on the one way street around the corner, if you can't find one in the front.“
“I have always loved Layers and have been a long time, frequent patron. In fact, I love Layers so much that I wanted them to make a birthday cake for my baby’s first birthday celebration next week. I was given the phone number to the baker, yet my calls were never answered or returned, and I couldn’t leave a voice mail. I have called probably 5 times over the past week, and it’s disheartening that I probably will have to go elsewhere last minute for his cake as I wasn’t expecting it to be this difficult to reach the baker. All in all, great desserts but that experience has made me remove a star. ☹️“
“Been coming here for a few years and I love this place! The staff is always friendly and their baked good are delicious! I never mind the trip even though it’s a bit far from me because it’s well worth it! Perfect to get something for any occasion or just to stop by for a sweet treat. Highly suggest trying any of their pastries with fresh fruit and cream as the fruit is always fresh and the cream is perfectly sweetened!“
“My friend is an Islanders fan. What's near the arena? If you park a few blocks away, apparently this five-star place, and that just further tempts you to save those dollars for food instead of easier parking. I have never tried this particular cuisine before so this was an easy choice. With a nice small selection that makes it easy to choose, I went for a selection of Haitian Patties and a douce for dessert. So, for $6, I got a meal that filled me plus a dessert munch. I think for the amount you pay to park at UBC, you could buy an entire family dinner here! Now the food.* Patties: They were out of spinach so I had chicken, beef, herring, codfish. The difference in the two fish patties was subtle - I think the codfish is a little "whiter" tasting (in fish terms, less fishy and a little... more like flour?) but I could definitely tell there were two different patties. The chicken and beef were easier to tell apart. All had a unique balance of flavor that made them unmistakably Haitian and a great value. It only took a few minutes to heat up the patties that were made that same day and hand them over, too. So no delay for gameday.* Douce: A unique dessert, it's quite hard and crumbly to bite into, but isn't actually a crunch dessert. It gets a little softer and sticker as you get into it. Something totally outside North American cuisine but totally authentic and again, that unique Haitian flavor to it. I kinda wish I had tried all the flavors of this one too.Atmosphere is just a storefront, no eat-in. Service is very friendly and fast, and you do get a selection of other Haitian and Caribbean foods/drinks, not just the baked goods. Authentic, been here for a long time, and hopefully sticks around... forever. This'll be my go-to every Isles game I'm dragged to from now on!“
