    Raspberry lemon soda
    Jennifer O.

    I can't believe I've never reviewed Spot. This is one of my favorite dessert places to go. And if I'm in Flushing you best believe I will be getting something. My absolute favorite is Golden Toast, I say to myself I'm going to try something new and never do because I can't stop getting Golden Toast. I have gotten others but I still go back to Golden Toast. The service is always good. Today I tried the raspberry lemon soda & it was really good.

    I had not been to Spot in years and was a bit shocked by the lack of restaurant etiquette during our recent visit. One group was waiting to be seated at the larger table, which was being cleaned to accommodate them. After that group was seated we seated ourselves, since all the other tables were empty. Service was slow. (There was one server and one person behind the counter.) During the entire time we were there the dirty table next to ours was never cleaned. After the large group left, their table was not cleaned either (even though there was only one other group besides us). We ordered a few desserts and drinks. They were good with the exception of the watermelon ice cube dessert shaped like an apple. It was very pretty/cute, but not edible since it was completely frozen. After chipping away at it for a long time it started to melt a bit, but it was flavorless and not worth the effort.

    Found Spot Dessert Bar in Flushing while I was out and I was craving a matcha, so I decided to try their strawberry matcha.The drink was really good the strawberry added a nice sweetness that balanced. The employees were so sweetI also noticed they have a lot of really interesting desserts on the menu, but most of them require dining in, so I didn't get to try them this time. The presentation of everything looked amazing though so I already know I'll be coming back just to try the desserts properly.

    Flushing has its own rhythm. The horns, the rush of people catching the 7 train, lines forming for late-night snacks like stinky tofu -- it's busy, loud, and full of life. And tucked right into all of that energy is a little dessert haven that feels like a reward at the end of the day: Spot Dessert Bar. This place holds a lot of nostalgia for me. It brings back high school hangs, college nights, and those spontaneous "let's get dessert" moments that somehow turn into full conversations over something sweet. Recently I brought a friend visiting from New York back here, and it felt like revisiting an old favorite. Yes, it can get crowded. The wait can be a bit long, and the space fills up quickly. But honestly, if you've never waited for a table at Spot, you're missing part of the experience -- standing there with the menu, debating which dessert to try, watching the beautiful plates come out one after another. The menu is playful and creative, full of Asian-inspired desserts that feel thoughtful and a little indulgent. We ordered a trio of churros -- matcha, chocolate, and red velvet -- which were crisp, warm, and perfect for sharing. The Spot Dessert Pot is always a must, layered and comforting with just the right amount of sweetness. But my personal favorite remains the golden toast: thick, buttery honey toast topped with whipped cream and strawberries. It's simple, classic, and somehow unforgettable every single time. You can tell these desserts come from a place of creativity. Iron Chef Ian Kittichai's influence is clear -- these are plated desserts that feel both playful and refined. The ambiance is cozy and modern, a small café that feels like a quiet pocket in the middle of busy Flushing. Soft chatter, people sharing desserts, phones coming out for photos -- it's the kind of place that naturally creates memories. Some places are trendy for a moment. Spot is one of those places that stays with you. A little sweet tooth here goes a very long way.

    Black Sesame Basque Cheesecake
    Bethany W.

    I was really excited to try this new black sesame dessert! I've heard great things about the other desserts but could only try one thing cause I was alone haha. The cheesecake itself had good black sesame flavor and was smooth and dense. I liked the berry "jam" on top cause it made the dessert lighter. The ice cream.....was a weird addition; it was icy and I wish it was vanilla bean flavored and creamier. Overall I want to come back and try the other desserts because they all seem so creative!

    Pretty busy on a Saturday! There were also parades going on that day in the area so that may have contributed to it. There was only one person serving and I saw her scrambling everywhere. I've been to other locations of Spot Dessert before and it's your reliable (slightly fancy) dessert sit down place. I love that they have a 2-3 sets you can get with about 3 desserts each and the combination is sold at cheaper price than if you were to buy all 3 individually. I was pretty full from the delicious food that Flushing has to offer so I shared a Harvest dessert. It's a best seller but I never had it before. It's a cute dessert but I just don't think it should be the best seller. It's supposed to a cheesecake filling but it was more on the sour tart side like greek yogurt. The thai tea drizzle made a small difference to the flavors. The guava sorbet was sour as well but I liked that it wiped my palette. They also had some cold foam the same flavor as the sorbet which was cool and artsy. I love Spot dessert but recommend trying other menu items. At the end they gave me a red envelope with a coupon in it (bogo milk tea) in celebration of Lunar New Year.

    Milky Puff
    Priscilla A.

    We stumbled upon spot while on a late night stroll. We were for something sweet and most places were closed or about to close. Spot is quite small, so we were grateful to be seated immediately. The service was great, all of the employees were pleasant. The milky puff is the perfect balance of sweetness, the crunchiness of the cornflakes and rice puffs paired with the creaminess of the ice cream and the softness of the pastry is a match made in heaven! The white chocolate honeycomb is amazing!!! We loved every bit of it!

    sesame bloom
    Emily G.

    This particular location is a small space; we were sitting so close to our table neighbors. The service was good and quick to take our order though and refill our waters. My friends and I went for the Fall-Winter '25 seasonal specials. One of them - Chrysanthemum snow - was bad, our group unanimously agreed. It is basically ice ("granita") and cubes of Korean pear, with a ton of mushroom. Most of the dish is mushroom which was not a great texture for a dessert and bc of the granita it became a bowl of water soon after being served. The Sesame bloom and "Ube-rri" was pretty good, but neither would I order again. Stick to the signatures. This season's tapas were a miss.

    Ube-rri and Matcha Lava
    Jacklynn K.

    I love Spot! Everything is always so good. This location is very small and super busy tonight! The servers were kind. I been here many times and have tried all of their main desserts. I saw they had a new ube and blueberry dessert. It was good! I wish it was a bit more ube forward but nice to see some filipino representation. I usually go for the cookie camp, that one is fire. My friend had the matcha lava cake and loved it. That is also one of my favorites. Definitely try this place out if you haven't, there truly is something for everyone!

    Matcha Lava Cookie
    Esther C.

    I've been going to Spot Dessert Bar since they opened with the OG east village location over a decade ago and it's been so awesome to see them expand to new stores and neighborhoods! This will always be my go to for Asian inspired desserts and to catch up with friends over sweets. I always have my go to's like the chocolate matcha lava cake and golden toast but sometimes I like to try something new off their seasonal menu too. Some of the cookies are a little too sweet imo but everything else is pretty solid, I remember even getting their tubs of ice cream delivered during the peak of Covid (god bless). The flushing location is always packed so expect a wait during peak hours. Astoria location is also new and clean! :)

    Iced Thai Matcha Latte
    athena z.

    Came here on a Sunday at 6 pm with a party of 3 and it was not crowded. We ordered a matcha lava cake and iced Thai matcha. The lava cake did not have matcha and the filling was chocolate but it came with a scoop of matcha ice cream. The staff was very friendly and I got a takeout container for my matcha latte since I did not finish it. They have a single stall bathroom which was clean. I definitely recommend as their desserts are so unique and the experience was so leisurely.

    Mango Passion Fruit Soda
    Serena C.

    Food: While I usually look forward to getting dessert from the spot, it was disappointing to me. Idk if my taste buds changed but the cookie camp was WAY too sweet this time. I shared it with one other person and it was hard to finish this time. Usually, I rlly do appreciate the different flavors of chocolate, marshmallow, pretzels, and ice cream but this time the sweetness overpowered all of the complex flavoring I wanted to taste. I also tried the sweet beani, which is from their spring/summer menu this year, but it's not my favorite. At least it wasn't too sweet. And if u rlly like black sesame and red bean, you should get it. For me, I thought the black sesame was too strong. I also was disappointed by how the cake is smaller/less wide than it appears on the menu. service and ambiance: Cute spot and great service! I suggest u go on a weekday to avoid waiting. Suggestions: For the spring/summer menu, I was hoping for more fruity, refreshing options for dessert. In the past, I like how they did shaved ice for one of their dessert tapas.

    Mango Passion Fruit Soda sooo good

    Came to this place to check out their Strawberry Matcha lattes. Service is nice and fast. The store has plenty of tables and clean. Check out pics.

    It was great, I really appreciated the service. However, the 15 dollar desert was quite literally just ice.

So good that I couldn't even tell it was dairy free. Itching to come back. Food 5/5: Vegan ube is a must try. So rich, creamy, and nutty in flavor (warning for nut allergy). Then add a cake cone to that for ultimate Mister Softee nostalgia. Where else can you get dairy free soft serve that tastes so much like the real thing? I was too excited for my ice cream that I forgot to add toppings. I can't wait to come back to try them. Also look at the size of the scoop (see pic)! Ambiance 5/5: As expected. It's a small station in the middle of a food court and still manages to be clean and cute looking. It's busy but you won't be here long cause service is fast! Service 5/5: Friendly, fast service. Let me try multiple flavors before picking. First time coming here so can't comment on the usual service but the server today really PACKED in a large scoop of ice cream into my cone, much appreciated!
