    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!

    Does each pastry have a different price?

    Yes. Ranging from $3.50 and up. The fruit pastry's are more expensive with the banana one being the least it was $4.00 the last time I visited.

    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 .

    Wow, this little shop is unassuming, it definitely catches the eye, especially for someone like me…read morewho loves Asian pastries. I've never tried a Japanese cheesecake before and was extremely excited to be able to pick up some treats for my coworkers as well as my partner's birthday cake from Keki. Ordering is fairly straightforward and done with a simple machine outfront. Once your order is ready one of the staff members hands it to you through a window; there is no inside area accessible to customers but our food came quickly and we took it back to the office. The cheesecake was fantastic. I read a bit about the background of the shop online and how the owner really cares about using high-quality ingredients, specifically dairy. It was justas described, light and bouncy. I enjoyed how it was not overly sweet and found that it was all too easy to devour the entire cake over the course of two days. Despite it not having much weight to it, it traveled surprisingly well as I took it home on my three train commute! Similar to what others have said, the real highlight of the shop, in my opinion, are their cream puffs. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but the outer layer was thin yet had a nice little crunch to it. We tried the classic milk, cookies & cream pistachio and ube flavors. Our favorite was the pistachio by far, which had such a unique yet decadent flavor and our second favorite was the milk cream puff. There's not much else I can say other than you really have to go here and try the desserts yourself. If you're a fan of Japanese desserts that are rich yet not too sweet, you'll be a fan of Keki.

There are lots of other tart places that do something sinilar and didn't really think these were that memorable.

And I commonly see the upstairs for private events like baby showers, bridal showers, or birthday parties on social media. After dinner with my friends, I was looking for dessert and I was glad to see this location closes relatively late on a weekday night at 11 pm. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a waiter who led us to one of the purple velvet chair booths that was perfect for two people and another waiter brought us a pitcher of water almost immediately. The menu is on a QR code already on the table and we were given ample of time to decide. My friend and I both already knew what we wanted to order. I got the purple Yam Souffle which takes 25 minutes to make and my friend got the fried squid tails. We also got a signature Rose Green Milk Tea to share. The waitress who took our order has great memory and recalled all of our items without writing it down. She also reminded me that I could adjust the ice and sugar levels of my drink which I had completely forgotten and would have got annoyed if my drink came out 100% sweetness. Another thing is that my drink order frequently comes out wrong at other locations so I was glad she got it right! Green tea instead of black tea and with milk instead of without milk. The purple Yam Souffle is just like the other locations. Hot, soft cakey texture balanced with an ice cold red bean Ice-Cream. So delicious! The squid tails on the other hand was not what we expected. It came out burnt and hard. The outer batter was not crispy either. We informed one of the waiters and he brought it back to inform the kitchen staff. We received a new batch that was not as burnt and had more flavoring this time around. However, the squid was still hard and not like the ones we get from other locations with smaller crispier pieces. Overall, it was still a good experience and I love the decorations at this location! This might be my second favorite location after the Flushing one. Would love to come back for brunch or hi-tea. Or regular food options when I have not already eaten dinner. My usual go-tos are the twister fries, Santa Fe chicken rolls, fried salted crispy chicken, and the trio dessert combo. However, this location has a lot more variety!

The rose fragrant smelled so good and the milk tea also tasted good and has a hint of rose taste. The cake was good, the boba was well cooked, chewy and flavorful! This time there was an unpleasant experience. At first when the Dubai affogato was served, we did not realize that the amount of the coffee was little until we saw another customer's dish that the volume of their coffee looked significantly more than ours. My friend brought it to the waitress attention but the waitress brushed it off and did not acknowledge our concern. When we finished and were about to leave, the same waitress came over and showed us that the container of the coffee was different and hence the volume of the coffee looked different. At this point, we did not care for it anymore. We would have been fine if the staff acknowledged our concern. We thought that maybe using standardized containers for the coffee would avoid this problem. Other than that, the food and drinks were good.
