JessieSeptember 26, 2012Great place for a group of friends (like 6 people) to get together and splitting 5 desert tapas, three macarons, & two icecream a/sorbets on a weeknight
Allison YuJanuary 6, 2015Unique and delicious desserts by Thai iron chef Kittichai are perfect for sharing - get 3 for $23 or up to 7 desserts for $55 depending on your party size/appetite
Mike YAugust 21, 2014I don't know or care if they are Asian inspired, but this place is the best desserts in NY and I've had a lot. The harvest and the mango thing were amazeballs.
For that serious chocolate craving get the Chocolate Forest. Rich, dense chocolate mousse cake with a gooey centre.
- FreshNYC p}-:{>February 22, 2015The number one seller at the Spot Dessert Bar is the Chocolate Green Tea Lava Cake, a warm cushy dark chocolate cake with green tea ice cream. Read more
A NYC treasure that tops more well-known dessert places. Pichet changes the menu seasonally, so the awesome rice pudding was no longer there, but every tapas item is always a phenomenal surprise.

Uddhav KambliMarch 30, 2013You may have to wait a while but remedy that with a lot of chocolate green tea lava cake. Be prepared to use your fork as a weapon because who needs enemies when your friends ravage your plate, right?
Aaron BeppuNovember 24, 2012When I took the first bite of chocolate green tea lava cake, it spurted warm gooey deliciousness everywhere. So did I.
Its new Coconut Monkeybread is gluten-free and is topped with an amazing coconut ice cream.
I think I've tried their whole menu, and I still like their chocolate green tea lava cake the most
Matt WeinbergerFebruary 15, 2013Very friendly staff and excellent desserts. I had the Golden Toast and it was extremely tasty. Highly recommend although there is usually a wait.
Zoya La FlorAugust 13, 2013A must go to spot for those with all of their teeth sweet!! Green tee lava cake is no description delicious!! Lychee bubble tea was good too!
Try the Green Tea Lava Cake, Chocolate Forest, & Malibu Rice Pudding. - Yum! One of my favorite spots in the City! (via @Foodspotting)
Andrew CJanuary 10, 2016Very small space, had to wait for table outside in cold.... once inside though, the desserts are a bit pricey but absolutely phenomenal - def going back!!
Polina WeitzJune 22, 2022Interesting desserts in this low-key spot. Be prepared for a wait, even on weekdays. They have a "dessert per person" minimum.
F Lo LoJune 10, 2013Delicious dessert tapas! If you're lucky, you will spot the elusive unicorn ... organic, flourless, vegan red velvet cake. Do not share this.
Nir ToberMay 28, 2016No point in looking at the menu — get the Golden Toast with ice cream and strawberries!
So cute! And so tasty! My dessert looked like a little potted plant!
Morgan PolotanMarch 22, 2015The Taro macaroon is my favorite, and the green tea lava cake is good to.
Nikki SyliantengJune 4, 2016Wood tables and good lighting make this is the best Spot location. The one in Ktown feels like a rowdy cafeteria.- RachelSeptember 12, 2016Love all their dessert. Current favorite the pokeball. Nice place to have a sweet moment with your love one.
Jordan KongFebruary 15, 2013Dessert omakase is a little of an over-kill, but do get the Chocolate Lava and Kabocha Brulee Cake.
- CarolineFebruary 10, 2015Chocolate Forest - baked, dehydrated, and blended green-tea powder with chocolate, cookies-and-cream, and green tea. Looks like moss
Lisa RayleSeptember 14, 2015We liked the green tea lava cake and Black Forest cake. The harvest was also good, and very fun
Christine WilsonSeptember 5, 2014Deserts very over the top Japanese style. Only downside is you can not switch the ice cream flavors that come with your desert
Munch On MeNovember 8, 2011Move over cupcakes! Macarons are here to stay. Gently crunchy on the outside and light as air inside, these colorful meringue cookies are the toast of New York, and nobody makes them quite like Spot. Read more
Caroline LeMarch 13, 2015everything about this place is amazing. you can't go wrong with any of the dessert options
Shayna MacklinJune 3, 2012Thai iced tea is unbelievable. They also have an amazing fusion menu of desserts,. Not to be missed: coconut chocolate chip cookie.- Jennifer ROctober 1, 2016Lychee macaroon is outstanding as is the rest of the dessert menu. Try any special they have
HashtagNYUJanuary 17, 2014Great place to take a few friends for dessert tapas. Good for picky eaters, too — they have so many options!
Paolo BaroneMarch 12, 2015Try the Chocoalate Green Tea Lava Cake - This thing is beautiful! Chocolate green tea lava cake! #nyc (via @Foodspotting)
Never not crowded but it's so worth any wait. Matcha lava cake is the way to go
Ashita MehtaMay 14, 2011The Chef's Special which changes ever so often is ALWAYS worth giving a shot. My personal favorite is also Ovaltine Pannacotta. But everything else is also amazing!
Meri's FoodJune 4, 2017Amazing spot for desserts. Everything is yummy, but the chocolate lava cake is a classic.
Every dessert has its own taste and amazing look
Erik BurbullaAugust 6, 2014The golden toast, the chocolate forest cake and the harvest are the three best desserts there hands down
Niti PaudyalDecember 19, 2017the harvest is really good, it's an 'experience' of desert watering the plant and then eating it
The green tea lava cake is incredible, but the harvest was my favorite!
Daniel L.January 1, 2013As impressive and fun the whole menu is , most days I just want that delicious green tea lava cake ...... Don't forget to order one!
Chanse ArringtonJune 13, 2011Delicious cookies, cupcakes and uniquely flavored ice cream. don't forget to grab a cup of coffee with your desert. It's strong, but delicious. Read more
