Yum yum give me some!! Although it was quite a wait to get a table at spot, it was a fun experience!! We ordered the harvest and the golden toast. The harvest was a fun interactive dessert that was hands down delicious!! The golden toast was good, it tasted like a fancy, buttery, French toast. The restaurant is quite small. The staff are all so friendly!! They have perfected getting people in and out after they have enjoyed their sweet delectables! read more

Spot is always a five star experience! We usually hit up Spot twice in our four day stay in the city. The employees are chill and helpful, and every dessert I've ever tried is excellent (I've had most of them). Their bathroom is kinda sketch, but don't touch anything and you'll be good. We'll keep coming back and back and back. read more

I'm not usually a huge dessert person, but I absolutely loved my experience with the service and desserts here! For our larger party of 8, we waited about 10 minutes to be seated, which wasn't bad considering how busy it was. The service was excellent--everyone who helped us was attentive and friendly. What we ordered: * Golden Toast * Matcha Lava * Cookie Camp * Milky Puff * Chai Brandy (seasonal) * Matcha Lava Cookie * Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookie I believe we went with a deal that includes 5 dessert tapas plus 2 free pastries. My favorite was the Milky Puff--I loved its sweet, milky, cereal-like flavor. The ice cream added a perfectly balanced touch to the dessert. My second favorite was the Golden Toast--the warm, fluffy toast paired with cold ice cream and fresh fruit was absolutely delicious. The Matcha Lava and Cookie Camp were good and safe options, but they were a bit too sweet for my taste--I probably wouldn't order them again. The Chai Brandy, a seasonal tapa, was decent but didn't stand out compared to the other desserts. I didn't try the cookies, but my friends thought they were just okay. Overall, I'd definitely come back. The experience was enjoyable, and I appreciated the great service and creative desserts! read more

~ Harvest $14.45 ~ Rating: 3.5/5 Some of the cutest desserts ever The "plant" dessert features a delightful combination of soft cheesecake, chiffon cake, whipped cream, and strawberries, topped with Oreo crumbs. You pour milk tea over it to complete the dessert. While the flavors are nice, pouring the milk tea over everything resulted in a pool of liquid dessert and lost all textures. The raspberry sorbet doesn't complement the "plant" well but is enjoyable on its own. ~ Golden Toast $14.45 ~ Rating: 3.75/5 It's hard to go wrong with honey toast! The crust is golden crispy and sweet, though it would be even better if the inside were fluffier. It's delicious when paired with vanilla ice cream and strawberries! ~ Kanom Sai Sai $14.45 ~ Rating: 1.5/5 This dessert was disappointing! The coconut cake was stale and hard. Although the shredded coconut added a nice touch, it couldn't salvage the dessert. The sauce drizzled on top was overly sweet and lacked pandan flavor. The mango sorbet was nice but nothing special. - - - - - - - - - Will I be back? Likely not Slightly on the pricer side, and nothing to write home about. read more

Looking for Western-style desserts with Eastern flavors? Spot Dessert Bar is a popular dessert cafe with signature and seasonal desserts with multiple locations throughout NYC. Their East Village location is the most popular and the wait can be long, but I tried the LIC location and there was no wait on a Saturday afternoon. I've also seen long waits at their Flushing location. The Matcha Lava, Harvest, and Golden Toast are their most popular signature desserts, and my friend raved about the Golden Toast so I had to try it. It's a huge slice of toast, toasted to perfection with a generous amount of butter. The warm toast contrasts the cold creamy ice cream and there's strawberries to break up the butteriness. The dessert was a good portion to share between two people after lunch elsewhere, and I'm glad the LIC location didn't have a wait. The dessert was delicious, but it did feel a little basic. Next time if I were to stop by again with friends, I'd opt for one of the seasonal items because it incorporates more unique Eastern flavors, such as the autumn yuzu trifle or kabocha pie. The seasonal menu for fall winter 23 is about to end, so I look forward to their spring 24 menu coming out! read more

Amazing experience. Incredible desert as well as serive and introduction to our dessert We had the Autumn yuzu triffle and it was reaaaaally good.

Would def come back! read more

This is the spot! For dessert that is! Finally got to try this place after an early dinner. There was a 15ish min wait which we expected. We just sat outside until there was availability. Once inside, we saw how truly popular this place was! Packed inside but we managed to get seated at a table away from the door. It can get a bit cramped and loud so maybe not for a quiet date night. We ordered the matcha lava since it combined two of our favorites... matcha & chocolate. The presentation was nice & service was fast. It is a chocolate lava cake with matcha ice cream. Very good! They have a restroom. Not wheelchair accessible. read more

Food (5/5): We got the seasonal Watermelon Dacquoise, Durian De-luxe, and Milky Puff. I particularly liked the Watermelon Dacquoise which was super fresh and nicely sweet. The Durian De-luxe was surprising a bit sour and not my favorite but alright. The Milky Puff was a solid choice and quite good. Service (5/5): Desserts came out fast and servers were friendly. No issues with service. Ambiance (5/5): Cute cafe-like atmosphere. Seating is limited so there might be a long wait at times. read more

My friends and I stopped by here after dinner for some dessert. The line was insane and out the door but we were able to put our name down. You can track your spot with a link they provide which is really useful, we walked around Saint Marks place, and came back when it was our turn. Seating is abysmally crowded and small. The chairs are really tiny and there's literally no space between tables. The ambience is just crowded. There's no lighting or design in the space that would alleviate the feeling of just being jam packed. So, if you were considering coming here as a post-date dessert stop, you might want to consider someplace a little bit more romantic and less crowded. My friend and I ordered the golden toast and the potted plant raspberry cheesecake. The golden toast is one of the best things I've eaten in a while, I loved the crunchy, pillowy and sweet texture of the toast paired with the cream and condensed milk ice cream. This dessert is absolute perfection. 10/10 The cheesecake, however left a lot to be desired. I found the whole flavor profile to be totally off. The chai flavored milk with the Oreo and cream cheese and raspberry. It's just not a delicious combination. The sorbet is another odd addition to the entire flavor profile. No doubt, it is a genius presentation and it looks pretty real like an actual potted plant but what it presents on the plate it totally lacks in flavor. I was expecting a lot more from a dessert that is one of their top sellers. Based on the lack of ambience, and insane wait time as well as the crowd that you have to fight to get to this place, I am 50-50 on whether I would return. The golden toast might bring me back here. Overall, I think this place is just one of those places that you have to try at least once, and if you do, please GET THE GOLDEN TOAST. read more

Tuesday I was here right after dinner. Ambiance wise it was packed as usual but got a seat instantly with my friend. Since I've been here before many times I wanted to get something different and decided to get the limited fall item which was the chestnut butterscotch cake with condensed milk ice cream. It was sooo good! The cake itself was nice and warm and pairing it with the ice cream was just right for the cold weather. Will go back as always and maybe try something else new haha. read more

Spot Dessert Bar - Chestnut Butterscotch - Desserts Near Me - New York, New York

Super popular dessert spot in East Village offering numerous unique and tasty desserts. Luckily, I went with two others so was able to try out 3 different options. The Harvest had a pot with a soft strawberries and cream cheesecake and Oreo crumbs on top which was very good. It was not overly sweet and very creamy. I was instructed by our waitress to "water the plant" in the pot by pouring earl gray milk tea on it which added a nice tea flavor that went well with the strawberries and cream. The raspberry sorbet scoop on the side was delicious and perfectly sweet. It would've been extra cool if the pot was also edible, but alas, it was not. I still give them bonus points for making this unique-looking dessert. The Milky Puff was also tasty with a banana brûlée pastry and sweet corn flakes on top. There was also a cool looking white chocolate honeycomb (thought it was an actual honeycomb at first). The Mighty Malt was my favorite of the 3 desserts I tried. The horlicks cream puff pastry was baked perfectly and was delicious. The coffee ice cream scoop on the side is great if you are a coffee fan. Each of these desserts was $13.95, so definitely on the pricey side, but if you are looking for a unique and quality dessert, then this might just be the price you have to pay. This place gets super busy during the weekends / peak hours, and we had to wait 30-45 min for a table on a Sunday night (joined the waitlist by scanning the QR code outside the door). Not surprisingly, all the tables were filled inside, leading to a very lively environment. While it was kind of packed inside and the place is slightly small, it was not to an uncomfortable level where people are too close together. The staff were friendly and the service speed was pretty quick. Overall, I wouldn't say I was blown away by my experience here, but the desserts were definitely tasty and unique (although there is still room for them to take the uniqueness/quality to the next level). Be aware of the potential busyness and wait times, but if you are willing to wait, then I would highly recommend visiting Spot Dessert Bar for a nice dessert. read more

Following a very disappointing revisit to Ippudo, we headed for Spot Dessert Bar where indeed the desserts are less that the $18+ at the place we had just left. In the past, we have had many creative desserts at Spot....not this time. Although it was an unseasonably cold evening, we had two of the new summer desserts -- the Hey Jasmine, which the menu describes as jasmine panna cotta, pandan sago, tuile, orange segments, raspberry sauce, jasmine ice cream -- and the Peachy Summer, a white peach granita, coconut flan, chiffon cake, passion fruit cremeux, peaches and coconut sauce. The Hey Jasmine had delicious jasmine ice cream, but no raspberry sauce or orange segents, the pandam sago hardly tasted of pandan. I am very fond of pandan and this was flavorless. But the Peachy Summer was worse. The granita, basically just shaved ice and lots of it, was tasteless,the coconut flan was stiff and not flan-like and the peaches -- not yet in season -- amounted to a small dollop of canned peaches. So so disappointing !! This experience was made all the worse because Spot Dessert Bar, always packed in its very tiny, crowded place, so therefore noisy with conversation, has added loud music to the mix. It is not acceptable when the decibel level approaches a dangerous 90 db, while outside on St Marks Place, hardly a quiet area on a Saturday night never goes over 80 db. Is this why you never see anyone there over 40 ? Young people have not learned that if you destroy your hearing early, you will never get it back. We have been to Spot Dessert Bar several times before and never had to complain about the noise, even when it was very crowded -- at those times, management never thought blaring music that no one was listening to, would enhance the experience. Late at night, a calm atmosphere would seem to be the thing to strive for. read more

I was blown away by the delicious desserts! We ordered multiple desserts and they were all so different. Expect a wait as this place is super popular.

Some desserts we shared were The Harvest, Milky Puff, Golden Toast, and Matcha Lava. read more

Came in after dinner elsewhere that didn't have dessert. Seeing as I've been here before and didn't experience anything too awful we popped in for a treat. We ordered two desserts that didn't sound too sweet (hibiscus cake and dragonfruit crip). When the dessert was placed down my partners came with a hot fruit sauce and this is where we noticed something was off the waiter. As they were about to pour the concoction they said "careful it's hot" and proceeded to splash the berry sauce, from as high as they could hold it. It was indeed hot as it fell on their arm. After being awestruck by this, we chuckled and I craved a little pick me up. Ordered a coffee I didn't see on the physical menu but on the billboard while waiting. I wasn't sure if the waiter heard me as it was so loud from the music and people trying to talk over it. I expected it to be sweet and not too strong, boy was I wrong. 1st I was given the wrong version of my drink (iced not hot). 2nd it was a dead eye with a splash of milk. It was so strong I feared for my heart and opted from drinking it. I wanted to take it home. The waiter brought me a to go cup to pour my very hot coffee myself at my seat... I did not entertain them and after waiting 30+ minutes to flag them down to do it two different waitstaff members came to check us out. One for the check the other for the coffee (why though...). The waiter with my coffee poured it at the table, smh, of course it spilled but luckly was ice cold from waiting so long. There wasn't a long wait to get in but was to order and leave as the waiter was in their own bubble. Clearly they were feeling the music hard but also on who knows what number of coffee. Overall this spot doesn't have an extensive dessert option and doubled with the inefficient waitstaff I think I'm done parroting (been coming for a few years). Everything was tasty and not overwhelming sweeet. read more

I have been coming here since my highschool days, so this review is long overdue. Nestled into a basement-like location, I have always enjoyed coming here. The tapas are always fun to share and the aroma of the dessert bar always fills the air. I have tried a wide variety of their tapas such as the yuzu eskimo, matcha lava cake, the harvest, golden toast, etc. All are classics to get and it never disappoints! I love all of them equally and differently. I do find the desserts a little too sweet if you decide to eat an entire tapa yourself. I definitely recommend sharing so you get to enjoy all the flavors without it being overwhelming. The service is always great here, the staff is enthusiastic to serve you. My friend really enjoyed her cold yuzu citrus drink that she got. I usually like their thai iced tea floats as well. read more

Very popular dessert place recommended by a friend. It was busy, fast paced and efficient. Plastic barriers between tables, vaccinations verified. 4.8*Figgy cakes: if this was served at any other restaurant or if it was not being compared to my other dessert it would probably a resounding 5/5, however it slightly paled in comparison. It was still an excellent dessert. Very unique flavors as I can't recall the last time or if I had ever had a fig flavor cake before. The fig worked well within the warm cake and the condensed milk ice cream and the pecans. An excellent dish that I can easily recommend to others and I would certainly order again 5*Harvest : outstanding combination of Oreo crumbs, berries, berry sherbet, cheesecake, and milk tea. All the flavors worked beautifully together. It was still on the lighter side and it was not super sweet which I always like. 5/5 would definitely recommend 4*Thai milk bubble tea: flavor seems to indicate that the drink was made with real tea as sometimes these places can just use some random powder and sugar. It was on the bitter side which can be good if that was your thing, I would have preferred it be a little bit sweeter. There was also a ton of ice. The flavor of the tea itself was great. read more

It was hard to find The Spot at first because it is located downstairs and only has a small sign pointing you to their door. There was a line when my partner and I first arrived, but the turnover rate was fast, so we didn't have to wait too long. We ordered the milky puff, a puff pastry filled with brûléed bananas and corn flakes, served with condensed milk ice cream. I was disappointed that they were not very accommodating with dietary restrictions. We requested the ice cream to be switched out for vegan sorbet, but the waiter said that the desserts were created a certain way and that items could not be changed. However, when the dish was presented, we saw that the ice cream and whipped was served on the side and could have been switched out. The choux pastry was nice and flaky yet a bit chewy and not particularly warm; the bananas inside were unripe and not caramelized fully. read more

It's a small, crowded, and busy place but if you get to go, it won't take very long. I'm not a NYC resident and have been on the hunt for good honey toast (golden toast on their menu) in the US for 5 years now since discovering it in Thailand and Laos. And man did Spot really cure my craving! It was so good. Almost tasted like the ones I had in Thailand and Laos, just needed a little more honey. The presentation isn't the prettiest because it was to go but it was so enjoyable. I wish I lived closer so I could get it every week! read more

Cute presentation but definitely overhyped. It's super popular and they end up seating 3-4 people at a 2 person table which makes it super cramped. Desserts were Asian inspired, but tasted pretty non Asian. Thought the matcha lava cake was pretty good and liked that everything came with some ice cream. Don't love that they require us to get 1 dessert per person bc it's pretty big. Overall overhyped but glad I tried. read more

I'm sure everyone comes here for the cute desserts especially the harvest which is basically a tiny plant that you can fake water and then eat it. The dirt part of the plant was just Oreo crumbs on top of layers of cheesecake. The water to pour onto the plant was earl grey milk tea that came with a side of raspberry sorbet. Surprisingly all the different components of the dessert went well together and the presentation was cute. The golden toast on the other hand was a honey butter toast that was super fluffy with condensed milk ice cream. It was a good amount of sweetness that came with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. We came to this location after grabbing dinner in the area. The inside was a bit small and because we were a party of 7, we had to wait outside. The desserts were a pretty decent size that was shareable. Overall, a pretty chill spot. read more

Such a great dessert bar and one that I wish had more concepts like this around the city. We came on a Friday night after dinner. Be wary- wait times can be long. We waited 90 minutes to get seated, and there's a minimum of 1 dessert tapas per person (although I saw some other tables bypass this so maybe it's not enforced?) We got three desserts: - Harvest (3.5/5): this one was confusing to me. I liked all the components separately- the earl gray, the cheesecake, and the strawberry sorbet with the oreo crumbles, but somehow combined altogether just tasted not cohesive to me - Milky Puff (4/5): this one tasted really unique! I love the bruleed banana in it and the mascarpone cream. It tasted like a very light Napoleon. The white chocolate and honey made it a tad too sweet, but was easy to pick off on the side - Chestnut (5/5): this was my favorite dessert by far. The chestnut cake tasted like a warm fall hug and I loved the mascarpone icecream with it. I could have eaten this for dayssss. Definitely pricy at $13.95 per dessert but the desserts are so unique I feel like it was a fun experience. I'll be back when new seasonals come back in! read more

*Cliff notes: 4.5/5 I came for the toast dessert. It was amazing. The staff is friendly. However, as I grow older and it's been years since my previous visit, I've noticed that the store isn't that spacious? It's small but they get the job done and the service is efficient. Would def spend my money here again.* Food: 5/5 I discovered this place years ago and I'm now visiting it again. I went to this location last week for their toast dessert. , just as good as I last remember it. The quality hasn't diminished at all. Like straight out of my memory taste and everything. A generous but moderate amount of whipped cream, the drizzle of honey and powdered sugar over the ever so slightly "crunchy" (yk?) strawberries. It was exactly what I wanted, can't drag this out any further. Drinks: 5/5 They offer a selection of tea's , latte's and milk teas with boba. I got a mint tea to help me digest bc I scarfed down some bb*q chicken earlier and wanted this as dessert. The tea was tea. It gave what it was suppose to give. Service: 5/5 I was seated promptly by this nice young lady. (Whether she was new or not- just wanted say you go girl, you got this & God bless youuu!) Anyway, everyone spoke very courteously to everyone and tried to be as accommodating as possible so that everyone was seated quickly but not feeling rushed. The outside wasn't open when I got there but when I left they were opening it up. They take orders on a portable pos which is convenient and check you out from it too. The bathroom is decent and apart from the graffiti here and there, clean. I almost forgot my bag and a couple of people called for me and handed over my bag. I appreciate them. Thank y'all for the food and service. God bless y'all. See ya soon *would be spend my coin here again. read more

If I were to rate solely the dessert, 2 stars. Condensed milk ice cream tastes like regular milk. Toast is ok.. probably won't order again. Very disappointed with my experience with the staff. I came in over an hour before closing and the staff did not mention they were no longer taking walk ins until we stood there for about 10 mins. When they mentioned take out only, I decided to order take out. I was waiting in line when the hostess (Juju, according to my receipt) comes up to me and states the people behind me were here first. If they were here first, why was I in front of them? But sure, ok. I'm not in a rush. I order my take out and go back to the waiting area. A party of 4 walk in and another male hostess seats them right away. He then seats my party, unaware we already ordered. I figure we could just eat at the table once our dessert is ready. I start to unpack my order to eat when the male hostess says I can't dine in with my take out. I let them know that they told me I could only do take out. He says they had cancellations. I know this is not true because I overheard the staff talking amongst themselves about no show reservations. He mentions that it's their policy. I ask him to plate my dessert. He says they can't. Later, I discover there is a mandatory 20% gratuity for dine in. Reason for policy? Likely.. @Management - Here are some better ways to handle future situations such as this: 1. Apologize for the miscommunication among your staff. Let guest know that they are unable to accommodate take out but are happy to serve them if they order something else. 2. If the gratuity is an issue, let the guest know. I'm sure they would be happy to pay the difference if you're honest about your policy. I really wanted to like this place. But staff was so off putting. =/ read more

My friends and I went to a restaurant nearby for brunch and decided to stop by Spot since we had a craving for something sweet after! I've been to the Spot location in Ktown before, but this one is so much better! The space was nicely lit and clean inside and we were seated right away (there were 6 of us). The server brought us water and took our orders pretty quickly! I got the Matcha Mountain, which was so delicious! I've never had matcha mocha butter cake before and it was so good! Would definitely recommend getting it if you like matcha! If you're not the biggest fan of matcha, you should try the Golden Toast, which my friend got!

If you're looking for a cute, aesthetic dessert spot to catch up with a friend, Spot's a solid option (if there's no wait)! Spot's known as a popular dessert spot for a reason, their desserts are consistent, tasty, and very pretty to look at. Who doesn't love a matcha lava cake melt on their Instagram story? The matcha lava cake was decadent and a great item to split between a group of friends, and the rose latte was a solid pick-me-up after a long day walking around East Village. But while the price-to-food ratio is fair for the very popular St. Marks area, I will have to say the popularity and size of the location do take away some points for me. I've visited spots at various times throughout the day on the weekend and on weekday evenings, and there's typically a 10 to 45-minute wait on tables. Once inside, the tables are on the more cramped side of things. All that being said, this place is definitely still a popular one for those visiting town! read more

Spot Dessert Bar is home to sweet dessert and sweet staff! There is always a long line out the door but you can always put your name on the list and they'll text you when your table is ready. It's located next to many shops so you can go next door and browse while you wait for name to be called. The staff is really friendly and helpful, I was pretty overwhelmed by all the delicious options and they gave me some amazing suggestions. Many people I saw had a potted plant tyke of dessert and I decided to go with that which was the harvest. I'm a sucker for playing with my food so I had to go with that. It's cheese cake with cookie crumbs in the hot and you get milk tea to pour into it or rather "water" your plant. It was both fun to play with and eat! The cheesecake, milk tea and side of raspberry all complimented each other very well. My only complaint about this place is that my stomach wasn't big enough to try all the delicious options they have. I'll definitely be back to try out their other dessert options. read more

The latte strong flavor covered the rose flavor. The condensed milk ice cream taste just like condensed milk but in cold ice cream textures.

This is my second time at Spot Dessert Bar and I'm always impressed by their creative dessert ideas. However, the creative execution was quite beautiful but the taste could be improved. We ordered the Strawberry Blondie and Fig Cake (seasonal menu). Wow the blondie was so hard that even getting my first bite in was a real struggle. Thankfully the table next to me was also struggling as well so I didn't feel alone in this. However, the blondie was way too sweet and there was nothing to balance out the sweetness. Maybe water will do? The fig cake was my favorite. You can taste the seeds of the fig in the cake and the vanilla ice cream added a new layer to the taste. For the price and size of the dessert, I don't think Spot is worth it at the moment. Gotta give them credit for the plating and creative desserts though ! read more

Spot Dessert Bar - Oh play their marble game ! - Desserts Near Me - New York, New York

This place has been on my list for months and was finally able to check it out. However, this place is hella over priced and only aesthetic for your instagram. the desserts are good, but not THAT good. we ordered the milky puff which comes with cream filled in a croissant with corn flakes and white chocolate honey comb. it also comes with vanilla ice cream on the top. it was really good it's really small, and i wouldn't pay that much again for this small dessert. the service here was terrible which is why i'm only giving 3 stars. first off, i was with a group of 5. we ordered the milky puff, 4 drinks and a side of ice cream and they told us we couldn't sit inside because we didn't order enough food -- they said we needed to order 4+ entrees to stay! how does that make sense?! so we had to take everything to go so it's not like we really had the "spot experience" because they literally were rushing us. i've never heard of this rule and actually felt disrespected in doing this. i don't think we enjoyed it as much either since it was all flopped around and melted by the time we were able to eat it. read more
