\u201cTake the Cannoli!<\/span><\/a>\"<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>

\"My husband and I both come from very Italian families so were excited to run across Caffe Palermo. We stopped in with our 2 kids for a before dinner cannoli and were pleasantly surprised. During dinner, everyone decided that they loved the cannoli's so we decided to go for round 2 after dinner and take a few back to the hotel. The second one was just as delicious as the first. We only did counter service but found the staff to be friendly. Next time we are in NYC we will definitely visit again and try more than the cannoli's.\u00a0\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAlmond Spun Cone Perfection!<\/span><\/a>\u201d<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>

\"Visited here as I tried an Almond Cheesecake cone when I was in the US before, it was amazing and I'd heard that this place did the best!<\/span>
Literally my favourite desert, I only wish I had the recipe or there was somewhere back in the UK that made them. I could go back to NYC purely for another one of these!!! You have to try one!\u00a0\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Best of Little Italy<\/span><\/a>\u201d<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>

\"My wife and I and our friends from Australia visited Caff Palermo after a carriage ride through Central Park. Upon entering, the glass display case with all the available pastries beckons you to come over and take a look at all the delicious selections. My Son had been in New York in November of 2017 and recommended Caffe Palermo as having the best cannoli he's ever tasted. If your sweet tooth is bent on being satisfied, Caffe Palermo is right up your ally. An awesome experience for the eye and palate. Definitely 5 STARS.\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Don't Just Go for the Cannoli!<\/a>\"<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>

\"Being gluten free, I couldn't sample the cannoli -- but my husband and I could taste the sorbet and gelato! Both are excellent!! As is the coffee. On a hot day -- the iced coffee and sorbet and gelato are great choices. [Hint: try the mango sorbet!] Our waitress was the best!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Give yourself a little break and treat yourself there.\"<\/span><\/p>\n
