Antoinette MOctober 27, 2013Two occasions they did not give me the right pastries. it's not like you can really double check once you pay for the purchase because they tie it up right away. Still amazing pastries.
Yuri GuaniloApril 23, 2014I personally love the strawberry shortcake, but you can't miss with anything in this place!
Susan S.December 10, 2016Tons of delicious pastries, old school vibe. I really like the frutti di bosco tart.
Sarah KFebruary 16, 2013Can't decide between something chocolate-y and their famous cheesecake? Get The best of both worlds!! Try the chocolate mousse cheesecake. Absolute heaven!
Ro JJune 23, 2015Chocolate raspberry truffle cake! Cozy spot where they don't rush you, and you can stay as long as you like.
Anna DzhenkovaApril 10, 2015Impressive selection of desserts. I love NYC strawberry cheesecake, carrot cake, and coconut cake.
Mike FriedlichSeptember 29, 2016Cannoli's are to die for! I had chocolate and double chocolate cannoli and they were delicious.
Tiramisu is a MUST!! And the chocolate pear passion when they have it. And DON'T leave without a pound of saviordis!!
The fruit supreme cake is my favorite cake. Its a sponge cake infused with raspberry brandy, filled with bavarian cream and fresh fruits - guaranteed to not let you down.
- JaneSeptember 12, 2017One day after purchasing, one slice left, kept in the refrigerator overnight but moldy strawberries the next day makes us question quality
CompassJuly 24, 2013For cannolis, tiramisu, and traditional Italian cookies, the 100-plus-years-old bakery is the only place to go.
- BasakJune 30, 2015One of the oldest bakeries in the city. Old school Italian vibe and great mini cannoli!
Grab a number, browse the counter and be patient. The line moves fast.
Tara RocheDecember 7, 2011Everything is good. I particularly like the variety of cookies. Not too fancy perfect with espresso! Make sure u order in advance for the holiday!
The chocolate covered cannoli is the best, but get a small one and save room to try something else too
Rent the RunwayApril 27, 2011Veniero's has been around forever! Don't forget to pull a ticket and get your number by the entrance or you'll stand around for hours. Order a slice of strawberry shortcake- it's not even on display!
Mike FiedlerDecember 16, 2016Get a table, sit down, have some coffee and a delicious piece of chocolate mousse cake.- All cakes here are delicious. My favorite is the fruit supreme. If you need a custom size cake order it a couple of days in advance.
EVERYTHING is good here! But the best are the cheesecake, carrot cake, and the cannolis.
Sandeep AhluwaliaMarch 29, 2016Usually busy and it's for the best reasons.. Everything is delicious.
Mary OJanuary 21, 2014Be prepared to take a number and wait for your pastries. They are definitely worth the wait though.
Noah XifrJanuary 27, 2013Everybody says get this or that cake. I agree. But you MUST try the TARTUFO nutty ice creams w strawberry inside thin chocolate shell.
Jonathan FerrariMarch 16, 2014When I miss Italy, i m running to Veniero to buy some pastries. Very old italian bakery, very addictive, handle with care!
Kathryn PhillipsSeptember 17, 2015I've this place!! Everything is delicious. Perfect spot to end a late night
Classic, delicious. Love the cannoli & rainbow cookies as gifts.

Linda ChowMarch 16, 2015Came here many times to pick up plain or strawberry topped cheesecake for a gathering. Always a hit =)
You haven't had a dessert ever until you have tasted one from Veniero's. After hitting up the Polish spot Neptune's i always come here for milk/hotchocolate and dessert. oh my lord is all is needed to Read more
Liane GrahamApril 14, 2013The Italian cheesecake here is my favorite dessert on the planet, but you can't go wrong with anything, really.
ivy♥May 24, 2011Their NY cheesecake is super awesome! Oreo cheesecake is interesting too, but can be too heavy. If you don't wanna wait in line, just order for delivery =)
If you really like sweet, chocolate taste, try the pistachio tulip cup. Also try their carrot cake. They are my favorite (:
Mark BallingerMay 20, 2013What else is there to say about Veniero's but the best in the city. We brought some cannolis back to Fla and we are now hero's
Meric Akcay DunnSeptember 18, 2016We went there to taste their famous cannolis which were not the best we've ever had. But service was even worse. They told us outside was closed but continued to seat people there.
You could live off those tri-color cookies for the rest of your life. Stop in and get a pound of those, or the pinole cookies, or a half-dozen cannoli. Great for parties. Better eating at home.
kate kJune 29, 2015A NYC institution with a wide variety of cookies, old school Italian - kinda mass-produced.
Hidden behind the counter, the tri-color cookies are not to be missed.
Joelle BSeptember 6, 2014The mini tarte au fraises and Italian cheesecake!!! And baby chocolate éclairs

"Have one savory dish & one sweet then SHARE. Never had pancakes as fluffy as these, waiters are nice, wait is 1-3hrs but they text you when you're table is ready so you don't have to wait outside 👌"
Jovana Obradovic - 8.7
"Every cookie is phenomenal. Favorites include key lime, red velvet, blueberry cobbler, sea-salt/chocolate. The coffee is also really good."
Vivek Pradhan - 7.3
"Try green tea iced flakes (bingsoo or shaved ice). Comes with mochi, strawberries, grapes, mango and vanilla ice cream on top and sweet red beans below fruits. Easy to share two or even three people"
