The tea was wonderful and our lunch items came quickly and were tasty. We asked to keep a menu, explaining we would like to get dessert after. Once we we received our lunch food, it quickly went downhill. We never saw our waitress again after that. My son finished his Boba tea and wanted another, but our waitress never came over to check on us. We sat for over 40 minutes after we recieved our initial order and not one waitstaff came over to ask if we wanted anything else, nor did they come over to give us the check. After giving up hope of dessert and more tea, we eventually went to the front counter to pay since we realized no one was coming to give us the bill. Normally, I would understand if it was understaffed or busy- yet the two parties next to us had waitstaff come over numerous times. We were literally ignored. We won't be back and I do not recommend.

The tender moist beef slices on a roll were very good. The Ginger dressing on the salad was flavorful, and I wish I could buy it to elevate salads at home. We enjoyed the Red Bean Ice Cream which is creamy with tidbits of bean. Outstanding. Service was attentive, friendly, and efficient! Ambiance is relaxed which was welcome after shopping on Wolf Road. And the bucket chairs are so comfortable.

I probably would too if I were local. Anyway, I think it would have been much better if they filled their cannoli upon ordering.

A long-time favorite, Bella Napoli is a true local gem…read more Sandwiches are fantastic, really scratches the itch for a good Italian mix. We love coming for breakfast, which is hot, fast, delicious, and reasonably priced (even these days). Home fries are to die for and their lattes are just as good as fancier spots in the area (and won't break the bank). Of course, you can't go to Bella Napoli without checking out their Italian pastries, cookies, and other baked goods. Our favorites include the turtle cheesecake, chocolate dipped cookies, cannolis and pasticchiotti. Danish, breads, and turnovers are also excellent. The service is always efficient and friendly. Can be tough to score a spot at the counter, but we always feel cozy and at home when we do.

They were very flexible / accommodating with pickup day/time. Very delicious. Will order again and highly recommend! Thank you. Extremely satisfied and the birthday girl was very happy!

They also offer a discount with a 518 Foodies card, which can be purchased at 518foodies.com. Misses Kisses Pies does something that I've never seen another bakery do and that's offer a four flavor cheesecake! That's right -- four flavors on one cheesecake. It's insane! I ordered the chocolate peanut butter, strawberry crunch, banana pudding and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I couldn't decide which flavor I liked best. They were all so delicious and the crust was heavenly. To order, visit MissesKissesPies.com and look over the menu before calling (518) 461-7324 with your order. Highly recommend!!

We headed to Cheesecake Machismo after a long day at two museums. It was a rainy day. When we got…read morethere and saw the sign outside, I was thinking, great, they have a few flavors left. When we got inside, the friendly gentleman (the owner, I believe), broke the news that he only had double Dutch left. He described it and hubby and I thought, well, that sounds delicious. We each got a slice to go. Service was excellent, prices were decent. The place is small but I can understand why they have raving reviews. Cheesecake Machismo knows their cheesecake. Husband carried the cheesecake slices on the walk back to our hotel and kept saying he could smell them. We were saddened to know they were not open the next day (Sunday) and were also closed on Memorial Day. We both wished we got an extra slice! Don't miss out on this special treat.

It's open early so we stopped by on the way into vermont after staying in the area. There is parking available in front of the store. There is no sign at the plaza but there is LED donut shop sign and wooden sign at the front of the shop. Inside is small and there are no seatings so everyone seemed to be coming to pick up their orders. Inside is decorated with lots of different colors and really gives off LGBTQ vibe. They offer lots of specialized donut options. I ended up getting apple cider cake and maple praline matcha drink. My donut was nice and sweet, crunchy and flavorful. My drink was creamy and slightly sweet matcha flavor was nice and light. Only thing that could have been better is if the donut could be warmer. Especially with apple cider donut it would have tasted better slightly warm. May be good to offer option to heat it up for customers at least those that are eating right after purchase there. Service was good and the staff were very nice and welcoming. It wasn't too busy so we didn't had to wait much. Overall it's a nice donut shop with good donuts and drinks. Curious how the sandwiches are which i'm interested maybe next time if there are opportunity. Overall a solid place.

Wow! I waited over a week to visit this place because they were sold out of most of the desserts…read more They're so popular, and the owners take their time making new desserts. They have tea, but I wanted cheesecake. The cheesecake was excellent! You order online or at their kiosk inside. It's best to keep checking online to see if the desserts you want are in stock yet, if they aren't, they're listed as sold out. The ube cheesecake was creamy, sweet, with cream. The triple matcha cheesecake was very good, tasted like matcha, and best if you don't like dessert too sweet. Each piece of cake was around $10-11 would be nice if it was bigger, but it's great as it is because it's dense. It's so cute inside! Service is fast! Highly recommend!

Second we grabbed the Ube Milk Tea float which was a super pleasant taste, ordered with 0 percent sugar which kept it at a perfect level of sweetness. The ube milk tea float comes with a scoop of delicious ube ice cream on top. The service was super friendly and inviting, and the inside was really cutely designed.

A small cone or dish is 3 scoops, currently at $5.25, tax included. It's cash only, but there's an ATM several feet to the right of the ordering counter. I got 2 scoops of peanut butter ice cream topped with a scoop of vanilla. The vanilla had some very small ice crystals in it but was otherwise fine. I really love their peanut butter ice cream. It's creamy with the peanut butter flavor but not overwhelming. The cone does seem to be a little small for all that ice cream, so don't dilly-dally too much eating it in warm weather. Since some other parlors near me have closed, Scoups has become by default the closest ice cream spot to me that makes their own hard ice cream. This is not a bad thing. It's also not bad that it's not too far away from Wolf Road, and it becomes a convenient spot for dessert after dinner nearby.

As soon as I opened the box, I was honestly a bit disappointed by how tiny they were for the price (the photo make them look bigger). The flavor options are fun, and I liked the taste of all of them. Double chocolate chip was probably my favorite, while red velvet was my least favorite. It had a bit of a strange taste to me. I think the main appeal of Nocturnal Cookies is that they're perfect for satisfying a late night sweet tooth since they're open until 1 a.m., but for the price, I just don't think they're worth it.
