Description

The shop delivers classic textures—crisp on the outer layer, soft on the inside—with a selection of around ten different dips, including a dulce de leche served cold. The beverage menu receives mixed reviews: the Oaxaca dark chocolate drink is rich and traditional, and the watermelon jalapeño is sweet and refreshing, but the strawberry matcha and ube drinks often fall flat. While some diners report inconsistencies in customer service, it stands out as an affordable dessert option in Manhattan.
