    Golden Toast
    Kathie H.

    The seasonal desserts weren't great but the golden bread was so good! This place was super popular but we had no wait for three people which was nice. Great, quick service with lots of seating!

    Such a nice and cute sit down dessert spot, perfect for a post dinner date or with a bigger group of friends! I was SO excited to see that they had a matcha lava cake. Lava cake with vanilla ice cream has always been my favorite dessert but MAKE IT MATCHA, EVEN BETTER!! Ngl, I couldn't really taste the matcha in the cake but the warm chocolate oozing out was delicious. The warm cake paired so well with the matcha ice cream, which that I could taste the matcha in. The crumbs under the matcha ice cream elevated this to a next level. It added an amazing texture. Service was great too.

    Golden Toast, Matcha Lava Cake, and S'mores Cookie
    Mark S.

    If you're looking for a great dessert, this is the place to go! I've been to Spot Dessert Bar many times and gotten essentially everything on their menu, and they have all been amazing. My favorites are: - The golden toast. It is nice and light and not too sweet. - The matcha lava cake. It's a little richer but still very well balanced. - The warm s'mores cookie. It is just ooey and gooey in all the best ways. The service is good, although keep in mind the line can get very long at this location. The atmosphere inside is also very cozy, albeit a little tight, but it does not affect the dining experience at all.

    Back at Spot to try their limited-time coffee dessert for white valentine's day! The presentation is so pretty, especially with the date white chocolate mousse piped into a flower shape. It tasted just as good as it looked. We literally scraped the plate clean, which pretty much says how much we enjoyed it. I'm a big fan of dates in desserts, so I was already into this. The date white chocolate mousse and dried dates brought this caramel-like sweetness that balanced the slight bitterness from the coffee. I only wish the mochi cake was a bit chewier or more mochi-y though. Also just a heads up, this dessert has caffeine and it kept me up for a bit since I had it in the evening lol.

    The desserts don't taste as impressive as they did in the past. The watermelon one was very light in taste and very hard to eat. The yuzu one had a stronger taste but I wasnt a fan of it and the passion fruit one wasnt that great either. I do like the milk tea float and the cheesecake one thats still good. Went on a Saturday around opening so there was no wait. Service was ok.

    asdfghjkl Spot Dessert Bar is the freakin best man! Not only do you feel like you're going downstairs to some exclusive speakeasy, but the dessert is out of this world. We've visited about five times now, and have been very happy customers after each visit. I would highly recommend the golden toast. The sweet, crispy, spongy, perfectly toasted toast is a 10/10, paired with strawberries and condensed milk ice cream. It slaps every time. My husband loves the cookie camp. Marshmallow cookie, pretzels, with the condensed milk ice cream and a homemade chocolate sauce poured over. Are you kidding me!? Perfection. The servers have always been really friendly and efficient. It is a casual place, and is always busy, especially during the evenings.

    Matcha Lava, cookie camp, Milky Puff
    Dhriti N.

    Spot NEVER fails to deliver. Every dessert I've tried here has been so decadent and a genuine delight to eat. The matcha lava cake is my favorite dessert in this city and has always been amazing quality, blows me away every time I visit. The cookie camp was honestly also almost equally as amazing. I think if you don't enjoy matcha much this one is the absolute winner. Sweet and salty and rich, it's genuinely a warm hug if it were a dessert. The milky puff was definitely yum but was overshadowed by the other two. Nothing wrong with it, really delicious but the other two were just too good. Place is small so there's usually a wait, you can put your name down and walk around. Go early or at odd times to avoid a wait.

    Unique and delicious desserts, great option in the east village. Always crowded to make a reservation or prepare to wait a bit.

    Ube-rri

    Really good dessert spot in NYC, but beware that there can be a long wait on a Friday night. I highly recommend getting on the wait list early to cut down on waiting time. Even when the wait list says you're ready, be ready to still wait for an open table. Place is rather loud and energetic, kind of typical for a lot of these hip Asian restaurants. Still, you can at least still have a conversation without having to shout. The menu here has some seasonal items. I went with the Ube-rri; it is this ube mousse, blueberry compote, ube chia panna cotta, blueberry white chocolate glaze, fresh blueberries, ube chiffon cake, and mint dessert. How did it taste? Exquisite and tasty without having you feel like you're going to have diabetes when you're finished, it's one of the lighter dessert items here compared to the others. The mouse was creamy like ice cream and the chiffon cake at the bottom was crunchy like a cookie. For someone who's not into sweets too much, I really enjoyed it. Not to much to comment about the service other than it being good with the workers and waiters being attentive.

    Cookie skillet
    Caroline P.

    SUCH A HOLE IN THE WALL. Spot dessert bar is seriously my favorite place in New York to visit. It has such creative and cool, aesthetic, desserts that all taste incredible. My partner and I made it our mission to try every single thing on the menu, and genuinely we couldn't even pick a favorite. However, there is nothing like the cookie skillet! It is really quick, there's usually a wait, but not too long and enough to do in the area that you can walk around while you wait, the best thing to do before a comedy show or after a couple of drinks! Was just back in the city for the first time in a couple of years and stopped by to show my friend, and nothing had changed. Was still able to get some of the amazing desserts with a few additions on the menu. Altogether 100% recommend.

    Came on a thursday night at around 9:30pm and this place was poppin! We put our name down and waited for about 20 minutes before getting seated. If you have a big party during busy hour, they might have to squeeze you in (we saw a group of 6 on a small table meant for 4) but we were only a party of 2 so it was ok. We got the hey jasmine (jasmine panna cotta, pandan sago, tuile, orange segments raspberry sauce, jasmine ice cream) and the matcha lava (dark chocolate cake with matcha powder, chocolate pearls, cookie crumbs, green tea ice cream). Both desserts were great! The presentation was so nice and just made it look so appetizing. I love panna cotta but I've never had a jasmine flavor one so this was new to me and I loved the floral flavor. I enjoyed the raspberry and orange flavor on the side as well. The matcha lava was delicious and it paired well with the cookie crumbs.

    What vegan options are available here?

    They have sorbet and the lychee Granata is vegan!

    Is the a student discount?

    No. This dessert spot is the busiest in the city.

    Is the yuzu Eskimo discontinued?

    Yes

    Can we eat indoors?

    They do have indoor seating available but it is limited.

    Any vegan options?

    Yes there are! I believe the monkey bread is vegan but unsure if it's still on the menu or rotated out

    Do you need to make a reservation, or just walk in?

    Make a reservation in advance if you can but on the day of its walk in only

    Has anyone ordered to-go? Wondering if this is possible.

    Yes but it's not as great

    Do they seat you at a table or do you order and try to find a seat? If thats the case how long until someone gets up and you can sit down? Im taking my boyfriend to this place and I dont want him waiting a while on his birthday.

    They seat you at a table then you order once you are seated. (You can probably look at the menu while you are waiting). Depending on time of day, it gets really busy at night. I would try to go in the afternoon if u can

    Hi! I was wondering what you guys have tried at Spot and what your favorite desserts there are?

    The Harvest is an absolute classic. A leafy green stalk of mint sticks out of a flower-pot-shaped bowl of cocoa cookie crumble that resembles dark soil. Underneath this delicious chocolate is a soft cheesecake. On the side, is a swirl of raspberry…
