This is the one of then best cannoli places in NYC! All the others deserts are pretty good to, but the cannolis are just crazy! Go there! Get cannolis! And be happy!

It's an overhyped overpriced tourist trap. Nothing special about this place. Average coffee and subpar pastries for a undeservingly high price. There are soooo many better places around town than this place. New York residents of the neighborhood don't go there, only visitors that unfortunately don't know any better. My advice, don't waste your time and money.

This place is manic if you're there at busy times! Be prepared to stand for a while and that you're able to make a decision on the most eye-popping selection of cakes/biscuits/pastries that I've ever seen before being shouted at by amusingly brusque (and efficient) staff to place your order.

We first visited Rocco's a few years back after discovering it ona food and culture walking tour. The cannoli is very good and there is a great selection of sweets. I ordered tiramisu and found the cup filled with copious amounts of sweet cream. I removed all of it and ate 3-4 mouthfuls of biscuit which was all that was... More

Enjoyed looking at the grand selection of cookies and pastries displayed by this Village icon and finally picking out a couple of huge cookies and drinks. We enjoyed them in Father Domo park, just a few steps from the shop. A definite "must stop and sample" sweet shop.

what a great selection of treats. I wanted to try everything they had. As we had had lunch before, we shared a big cookie and I drank a hot chocolate, definitely the best hot chocolate ever. The atmosphere is nice, not so much space between the tables, we had a stroller so we were in a tight spot.

This was another stop on our foodie walking tour of Manhattan. I have never seen such a selection of cannoli and other sweet treats. The filling was really fresh and not heavy. The only thing was that we had eaten so much at other stops that day, that I really couldn't indulge too much here. The one thing we did... More

I thought the cannoli at Ferrara was good... nothing compared to this!! They don't fill it until you order it and that is key to how delicious they are! I went here on a food tour and whenever I go back to NYC and want a cannoli, this is definitely the place I'll go. Great, huge cookies, too. The almond... More

We had the famous canolli, specialty coffees and red velvet cheese cake. All were good, but nothing special. The service was middling at best. Curt.

Bought a variety of pastries and cookies to take home. They were all very good and well priced. They were busy, and the staff was attentive, but could have been a little more helpful. Fortunately there ws no line, at least. Stick to the italian cookies, if cookies are your thing. We had an Oreo cookie, and it was just... More
