    Wish I didn't bother with the almond croissant, it was terrible, not fresh at all. The cakes however seem to be made with a little more care. I tried the yuzu dessert and it tasted nice, little sweet and very tart. I didn't like the crispy rice cake, it would have tasted better on a sponge cake. For me, that made the pastry a little overrated. They have a good coffee menu, I enjoyed the iced latte, but couldn't finish it. Not a bad place but I also wouldn't come back nor recommend it.

    Beautiful, fancy pastries and drinks! I stopped here one morning for a sweet-forward breakfast. My partner and I ordered a bunch of different baked goods, most notably the Basque Cheesecake. Other reviews seems to be consistent and align with my experience - long lines move fast and the few tables in here fill up quickly. Personally, I thought the pastries were prettier than they were tasty, but I'm glad I got to try what I did. While Salswee is not on my list of top bakeries, I would be willing to come here again to try their more colorful items - things with mango or yuzu. Worth checking out if you're trying to tackle all the dessert spots in NYC!

    I really like the creativity that Salswee puts on their items! For the drink, I had the Traffic Lights. It's basically mango foam on strawberry matcha. I also had their matcha croissant and their mango. The croissant had matcha filling and the mango had actual mango inside with mango mousse. The mango was my favorite thing here! I also had the sausage pastry but I did find that salty.

    The deserts remind of me of Simulacra and Simulation but fulfill my childhood dream of fruits being cake instead of fruits. Had a blast tasting them all but coming here feels like more of a rare experience rather than somewhere I'd frequently visit. The cakes were so beautiful and skillfully made, and all were so scrumptious (filled with mousse) but light on the stomach. They deserve their price tag but they are more expensive than a typical pastry. When we came here there was a line, but it didn't take too long to get our pastries. The tables get packed pretty fast though because the seating area isn't too big.

    Visited because the pastries are known to be aesthetically beautiful...which they were! Although from a taste perspective, everything we ordered (traffic light drink and tart brulee) felt a little underwhelming in terms of taste. There was some seating but a pretty busy place when we visited on a Sunday night.

    Salswee is a solid dessert shop in NYC that lived up to the hype for us! I've been to Salswee twice now and thought it was consistent through both visits. I originally saw them on several IG and TT videos with desserts that resembled fruits. In terms of the store itself, the desserts are up front and to the right of you in display cases as you make your way to the cashier. The line is always pretty quick moving and easy to order and the pricing is also not too bad. The cafe itself is modern and includes some other options like pastries and coffee (unfortunately haven't tried those). I've ordered the banana, yuzu, and mango. The mango was delightful as well as the banana. Love how the desserts aren't overly sweet and layered as well as decorative. There are some tables/seats inside although it can get pretty busy. We ended up taking the desserts to go and eating it at the park across the street. Overall, think Salswee is well worth a look. Was one of our favorite dessert spots in town.

    I feel like I bought a truly ridiculous amount of petit gateaus here to try out and share with friends and we wound up enjoying most of them, some enough to buy twice. Went to the Flatiron store both times and didn't have to wait long to order. The staff were great and packed all of the little cakes nicely so that they survived the trek back to our condo. Mango--all around favorite, wound up buying like 4 of these cause half my friends preferred it and I liked it a surprising amount Blueberry--very mild, no tartness, not too sweet with good blueberry flavor Orange--fresh and orangey in the middle, loved this one Pear--reminds me of cinnamon apples (I guess this was cinnamon pears), which isn't my favorite flavor but others enjoyed Banana--made me sad cause I LOVE banana flavored stuff and this just... wasn't? It had old tasting banana paste in the middle assuming because it's real banana and not artificial, is tiny, and didn't taste good Yuzu--nice yuzu flavor and disappeared fast Cloud--forgot the actual name and apparently didn't take a picture, it had chocolate/hazelnut mousse with some sort of caramel and something crunchy, also delicious All of the petit gateaus were on the mild side which is a big plus for me. Appearance was top notch and the balance of cream to filling on point. I'd like to try some of the other pastries next time for sure.

    The dessert here is so inviting and pretty. Especially the mousse based ones that look like fruits. I got the mango, orange, and the one that looks like a mushroom. The orange has a base made of chocolate Rice Krispies. All of them have more fruity filling than the mousse. They are very fragile. I recommend eating there if you can. Finding can be a challenge because it's busy and there aren't many seats. I got mine to go just to be taken to the park across the street . The mushroom kind are totally ruined. It has strawberriy jelly and it was a mess. The orange one was almost ruined too. The mango has some diced mangoes. I devoured three of them instantly. Definitely come back to try more.

    Yummmy!!! What a cute and unique dessert boutique! So many choices but what makes this place stand out are its adorable and colorful mousse delicacies. The inside was packed with folks! There was no place to sit down because of how busy it was but the staff kept the line moving quick enough. The place still seemed reasonably stocked with their desserts and treats, despite the late afternoon time that I arrived. I ordered 4 different treats to go and they're packed in small box individually. Unfortunately, they didn't quite stay intact during my trek back to my hotel and were tumbled around in the boxes. Nonetheless, the taste and flavors held up well and even after a few days in the fridge. The yuzu daisy has this vivid pastel yellow-pink base and adorable gelatinous yellow gem atop a white flower. The yuzu gives a subtle infusion of tart that is balanced out by the light delicate skin texture of the rest. Sitting atop a thin round rice crispy. I loved the red mushroom one which is a creamy pink mousse inside the cap. The stalk is a thin porcelain-white chocolate light base also filled with a rich cream. Adjacent are two cute little tree nuts. The orange and mango have such vivid colors and are aesthetically pleasing too. Just like the previous ones, their delicate chocolate exterior houses a rich tarty mousse-y filling. I think the mushroom has a better balance and variety of flavors. Although I don't eat mousse treats often, I look forward to trying some of the other ones in the future, like the blueberry, banana and cloud.

    A very quaint dessert cafe. Lots of options, but I've been wanting to try these fruit trompe l'oeil's for a while. The service was fast and super kind. There isn't that much seating, but it worked out for my group. We got the mango and the yuzu. The mango was devine, and the yuzu was just okay. Even though I thought the yuzu was mid, the mango + service was heavenly enough for 5 stars.

    Came here after dinner one night for dessert. Staff was friendly. Maybe it was the end of the night but the store wasn't exactly clean. Tables and floor had crumbs everywhere. If you come in a large group you might have trouble getting a table to sit in. The desserts were beautiful. We order a couple of items to try and thought they were delicious. Not overly sweet. Very fresh fruit flavors. The small cakes were the perfect size.

    Maria R.

    It was a nice shop and service was ok. The pastries were a lot smaller than I realized which made the prices kind of crazy. None of the flavors were wow or made me want to go back again. They were fine nothing memorable if I'm being honest. Very cute items.

    Cloud and yuzu
    Afnan T.

    This is my third time going and I have to say I finally got the right desert the third time. Shared pics from all 3. Hands down the best thing to try is the mango (so flavorful and some parts feel cold like ice cream) and I also really liked the pistachio. Cloud is safe, Not too sweet and it's soft mousse. Yuzu (the flower dessert) had a hard rice cake under it which I was not a fan on. Everytime I have gone, the lien move pretty fast. Seating is whatever table you can find. So have one person place the order while the other scouts for a seat.

    Not a wooden block but in fact a Black Sesame Puff!

    Do they have anything gluten free to eat?

    I believe they do

    What time are there pastries running out mostly on?

    Frankly they don't cause they keep making them even at the late afternoon. At least most of them .

I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!

I will say that I didn't think I would like this cookie at all since usually I like thinner crunchier cookies. But holy cow!!

For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!
