Wow I’m shocked. Hate to do this but I have to save someone the money and disappointment. This is easily the worst napoleon I’ve ever had. The icing hurts your teeth it’s so sweet and the whole thing tastes like it comes from a box. This napoleon has a sponge cake layer, since when does napoleon call for that? It’s supposed to be baked puff pastry and pastry cream. I wouldn’t say anything but for $5, I had to warn others save your money!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Monteleone’s Bakery is the real deal—no gimmicks, just straight-up quality. Grabbed a cream-filled pastry and it was on point: light, fresh, not overly sweet, and packed with flavor. You can tell they’ve been doing this right for a long time. Spot’s got that classic neighborhood bakery feel, staff keeps it moving, and everything looks like it came out perfect. If you know, you know—this place is a must.

I loved everything about this place! It reminded me of the bakeries I went to as a kid. The gold standard for ne is how close you can to reminding of Lorabie Bakery in Queens from the 1980s and this place comes pretty darn close. I came for the rainbow cookies and they did not disappoint. This pistachio cookies are magic. I got some fig cookies I haven't tried yet, but based on these other two...I'm sure it will be amazing. The woman behind the counter was so friendly and welcoming. I honestly can't wait to go back when I need a rainbow cookie fix!

This is a wonderful Italian Bakery with a very wide selection of pastries and cakes. They are beautifully displayed and not only beautifully displayed but look incredibly done with such detail in each one. We tried quite a few pastries and cookies. My favorite one was the chocolate-covered cannoli. My granddaughter loved the coconut mousse individual cake. We also had the individual chocolate mousse cake and the chocolate lava cake. The mousse cake was another favorite. I felt the lava cake was not really sweet enough and a little bit dry. I also got the hazelnut cookie which is delicious. I haven't tried the Fig bar with another customer recommended to me as her favorite and I haven't tried the rainbow cake yet. Oh, I also had a mini hamantaschen which was excellent. Looking forward to trying more things next time I'm in the area. Additionally, the people there were very helpful and patient while we asked what things were and chose our selections. Thank you to them.

Nice-looking pastry shop with a large and visually appealing display everything looks fresh and tempting. Overall, it’s a good place with a pleasant atmosphere, but it simply didn’t stand out to me or leave a strong impression. The taste was fine, just nothing particularly memorable. I paid 25$ for 4 pastries, which feels reasonable for the quality and location. A solid spot worth trying, even if it wasn’t especially memorable for me.
