Cute little cafe with a variety of menu items. The indoor seating is super cute and seems like a relaxing place to chill. Absolutely loved the iced strawberry matcha. We tried a bunch of tiramisu as well. The pistachio berry one was probably our favorite. The Oreo mochi and chocolate crunch were also light and fluffy. Now for my standard comments. Location is clean and well kept. Unsure if there’s another entrance but not wheelchair friendly in the front.

Beautiful cafe with so many different tiramisu options. I tried the pistachio berry and the sea salt caramel - the caramel one was definitely my favorite. Also got an iced latte that was really good. The café has a beautiful interior and staff is friendly. You order through a QR code on the table, which is easy and convenient. Can’t wait to come back and try more - everything looked amazing!

Sometimes me dumb. Like when me go to cake place with friends and miscommunicate what to get. Then we get 5....yes, 5...tiramisus the size of paperback novels. Then me turn into bloated me. It bad. But for realsies, I'm not totally mad about our impromptu cake tasting. It was the fastest, easiest and most gluttonous way to experience what Cafe 2BY2 was all about. The Durian Soybean ruled supreme with its moist pungency. That's right, moist pungency. Get this unless you hate durian. Then don't get it and ask yourself why you were born with shitty tastebuds. We unwisely (i.e. stupidly) ordered taro twice: The regular Taro Mochi, which was as light, earthy and purpley as taro always is. And the Seaweed Pork Floss Taro, which is the glow-up cousin to the Taro Mochi--AKA Taro with better hair. The Pandan Coconut was the easiest crowd pleaser because only dictators and depots hate the combination of grassy pandan and rich coconut. The latter was stronger, unfortunately, but that's often the case. The Earl Grey Chestnut was the weakest of the bunch, as it neither tasted like earl grey nor chestnut (except for that weird fettucine frosting that Asian chestnut pastries always seem to come with). I'd skip this if you love bergamot or chesty nuts. Wash down your ill-gotten booty with the refreshing Gardenia Lemon Tea or the heavier, richer Strawberry Matcha. You can't go wrong either way. Throw in the cute, floral, antique-y decor and surprisingly ample seating, and you've got a surprisingly stellar new dessert cafe/bar to go for after-dinner hangs when you're not feeling like ingesting ethanol. Might come back when I've learned better ordering skills. And lost some of the last tiramisu weight.

Been here a couple times now and really wanted to be blown away by the unique and bold tiramisu flavors. I would say that, having tried a few, it’s not as much of a wow factor as I had hoped. I think they try to do a bit too much with too many flavors - the earl grey, for example, is already a strong enough taste on its own, but the chestnut adds a bit of nuttiness to it that didn’t really complement the earl grey. The mango sticky rice had the tase of pandan in it, which was once again a bit strange (especially given that they didn’t really advertise it that way). I think they should try to stick to one flavor and really excel in the recipe before trying to throw too much else on there.

Definitely a fun selection of tiramisu themed desserts. Personally, if it’s not coffee flavored, it doesn’t really give tiramisu - these are essentially flavored mousse cakes. Nonetheless, the flavors are interesting and the cakes are pretty. The place is cute and there’s a god amount of seating inside to enjoy your treats. I’d recommend going through their electronic monitor to see their entire menu which includes drinks since they don’t have those listed anywhere else. I tried their guava matcha drink and it really wasn’t that great. Got the pistachio berry tiramisu which was good.

I was really let down by my visit to CAFE 2BY2 on my birthday. While the prices are the same to full-service dessert cafés, the experience was far from it. You’re expected to order and pay through your phone, and there’s no real service, just one staff member who handles everything, including cutting and plating the tiramisu. The staff member wasn’t rude, but he gave off the vibe that he didn’t want to be there, repeatedly slamming the fridge door and moving around with visible frustration. It created an awkward atmosphere that made the visit feel transactional rather than enjoyable. As for the tiramisu, it’s certainly different, with some creative flavors, but the ones I tried the quality didn’t justify the high price tag. Overall, the experience felt cheap despite the different flavors . If you’re someone who values both dessert and the experience around it, I wouldn’t recommend this spot. There are plenty of places in NYC that deliver more for the same price.

Atmosphere: 4.5/5 Good place to study in and chat with friends. A bit spacious not too cramped. They have a QR code if you dine in, it is a bit pricey for 1 Tiramisu but it’s honestly pretty good. I loved the strawberry one, the Oreo was good but not my favorite. They offer pasta too, I will try that next time to see. I briefly got to taste the blueberry yogurt and it was pretty good as well.

Very impressed with the selection of tiramisu flavors—creative and all Asian-inspired. Each one had a good ratio of cream, cake, and ladyfingers, and the named flavors really came through. I tried the Pandan Coconut, Taro Mochi, and Peach Lychee—all solid picks and worth recommending. Great spot for tiramisu lovers looking for something different.

I've heard so many reviews about this Asian tiramisu cafe, and have been wanting to try it for the longest time! I came on a sunny day and it was PACKED in here. They have a kiosk where you order at and once you've ordered, you choose a table to sit at. The staff brought our tiramisu to us, while we had to pick up our drink order at their counter. I got their peach lychee tiramisu and their matcha coffee latte. Their peach lychee tiramisu was SO good. The lychee on top was super sweet (in a great way), and the rest of the tiramisu was light and delicious. Their matcha coffee was a lot bigger than I thought it would be, and reenergized me. I definitely will be coming back here to try their other tiramisu!

I've come by a few times for a sweet treat after eating nearby! I like the bright and clean interior -- always feels like a cosy place to spend time chatting and eating yummy tiramisu. My favourite tiramisu here is the oreo mochi tiramisu. I love how well the cookies-and-cream flavour of the oreo mixes with the original coffee/mascarpone flavours of the tiramisu. The layer of mochi, while not very prominent, does add an interesting chewiness to the cake, which is nice. Overall really delicious and not too sweet. I've also had the magnum crispy chocolate tiramisu, which was less well-received. The flavour seemed pretty uninteresting, and execution was a bit strange -- it's really hard to eat/break the hard chocolate shell when it's on top of a soft dessert. Price point is definitely on the high side (around $15 a slice), but probably worth an occasional splurge (esp if you get the oreo one hehe).

The mango tiramisu I had here was so good, and I definitely wanna come back and try their other flavors. The mango is fresh, and the tiramisu has a great texture and good mango flavor/icing. Very cute cafe as well. Wanna come back to try their matcha and taro!

There's plenty of seating inside and you can order from your table using the QR code menu. We shared the Sesame Soybean Tiramisu and it had a light black sesame, nutty flavor. It was good and not too sweet, but the texture was more cakey than tiramisu. It was very pricey and bit overhyped in my opinion. There are a lot of flavors to choose from, and some are pretty unique, so I'd come back to try those.

Came here to do some work and ordered the Mango Passion Fruit Tiramisu and Strawberry Matcha latte. The interior is SUPER cute - would be really nice for a little afternoon tea with the girls. The cake was delicious - soo incredibly fluffy and not too sweet. The size is kind of big so definitely better for sharing. The strawberry matcha latte was good but almost felt a little too sweet. It got better the more I drank it (I think because all the strawberries at the bottom were mixing in better).

This shop is so cute on the inside. This shop does so many exciting flavors of non traditional tiramisu- worth visiting. When you walk in the case with the tiramisu's is in front of you in case you are a visual person. If you are eating there you can sit at any open table & order from your phone using the QR code. Once the order is placed- your tiramisu is brought to the table. We shared it between 3 of us & it was plenty- but if you really love tiramisu you could eat it yourself too. We ordered the mango sticky rice tiramisu. It was so light for dessert and the flavor was spot on! I can't wait to try more flavors!

Came again to try out the other tiramisu and would still say durian is my fave out of them all. Close runner up would be the pandan coconut! Pandan coconut 4.5/5: you taste a lot of the pandan and it's simply delicious Strawberry 3.5/5: it was good, with fresh strawberries but not impressed Mango passionfruit 2.5/5: you only taste the mango and the mango bits looked kinda old and dark. My question was where's the passionfruit because you barely taste it so this was kind of a disappointment

Came here specifically to try the Mango Sticky Rice tiramisu! I found this cafe on instagram and it looked so cute, and in person it lived up to what I had seen online. The mango sticky rice flavor was perfect because it wasn't too sweet, and the size was perfect for sharing, I wouldn't be able to finish a whole piece by myself! Since we were eating in the restaurant, the staff had us go sit at the table and use the QR code on the table to order and then it was delivered to our table. I think I would definitely go back to try other flavors in the future!

This past Saturday evening, my friend and I wanted to get some desserts before heading to a concert. She's had the Asian-inspired tiramisu from Cafe 2BY2 before and enjoyed it, and it was conveniently close to where we ate dinner. Fortunately, there was no wait. We were able to find an empty table and place an order online via Toast. PEACH LYCHEE TIRAMISU - 13.95 Initially, I recoiled when my friend suggested the peach and lychee option. I didn't think those fruits would complement well with espresso. Fortunately, there's no coffee! It's a couple ladyfinger layers with a fat amount of cream in between, topped with a peach glaze/jelly layer and lychee. It was a bit too much cream for me, but at least it wasn't too sweet. I loved the peach and lychee combination and loved how unique it is. I'd recommend stopping by to try their Asian-inspired desserts. They're known for their variety of tiramisus, with other interesting flavors like Seaweed Pork Floss Taro (!!) and Durian Soybean (??).

I really wanted to like this place! Especially since it has such a cute concept being an Asian-inspired tiramisu cafe. Upon walking in, we were asked if we wanted takeout or be seated, then order directly from the QR code at the table. They have a wide range of different Asian-inspired tiramisu flavors, which I was super excited about given that I haven't rly seen this concept around NYC yet. We decided to share a slice of the Thai Tea Ovaltine Tiramisu. As a piece of dessert, it was good; however, if I closed my eyes and tasted it, I don't think I would have been able to distinguish that I ordered a Thai Tea Ovaltine flavored dessert at all. It barely has a hint of that flavor, but yet misses the mark since I was really looking forward to a cake that was fully infused with Thai Tea! In addition, it just tasted like we were eating cream the entire time. Considering there was so much cream, it would've been preferred if there was a 3rd layer instead of just 2 layers of cake, considering the amount of cream it had. Overall, I just don't think it was worth the $15 for a slice of tiramisu that didn't meet my expectations. Unfortunate that this was the case since I really wanted this to be my next go-to dessert stop. What we ordered: -Thai Tea Ovaltine Tiramisu

Cute Cafe offering a wide variety of flavored Tiramisu. Due to it's popularity via social media, there was a bit of a wait time for a table. While waiting in line-the ordering kiosk is readily available for quick order and pay. Display showed many Asian inspired tiramisu flavors; from Pandan/Matcha/Durian...etc. I chose the popular Original flavor tiramisu- the moist cake tasted good, but felt a bit bland. Wasn't sure whether the original flavor tiramisu meant to taste a bit like coffee, or just cake with creme. Because the cafe was so jammed packed with customers, there wasn't much of service; waitstaff did come over to the table to drop off the cake, but that as far as service goes. I do agree with some Yelpers review- this cafe has been really over-hyped and the expectation was just not met this time. Will swing by to try other tiramisu flavors next time.

Saw this all over tiktok and wa so excited to come try it! Tirimisu is my favorite dessert and I love that this place had so many different flavors! I got the mango passionfruit (10/10) the matcha (7/10) and the Thai tea (8/10) all the textures were perfect just some of the flavor was lacking with the matcha

I love tiramisu and was excited to try this spot out after dinner, but unfortunately I think it is overhyped. They were out of stock of about half of the flavors, so we tried the sesame soybean and earl grey chestnut. It is a very cute cafe and the cakes were tasty, but the cost of one slice of tiramisu is kind of ridiculous and not worth it in my opinion. They did a good job bringing out the sesame soybean and earl grey chest nut flavors, but it wasn't good enough to spend $15 for a piece of cake. It's maybe worth trying once, but probably not a place I'd go very often especially given the variety of options in the area.

Finally came to try Cafe 2by2! Such a cute spot, so many flavor options, and very tasty tiramisu! We tried the Taro Mochi, Seaweed Porkfloss, and Peach Lychee which was my favorite. I love a good sweet/savory combo, but I did not like the seaweed porkfloss flavor. I wasn't the biggest fan of the Taro Mochi either which actually had the same interior layers as the seaweed porkfloss. I like the added texture from the mochi, but the taro layer felt too heavy and thick. I much would prefer a taro-cream or perhaps a thinner layer of the taro. Overall, I will definitely be returning to try their other flavors!

Cute concept for Asian-flavored tiramisus that we finally got around to trying. We tried the black sesame and thai tea flavors. I really liked the former as it was very black sesame-forward. The latter didn't have as strong of a flavor but it was still tasty. Good option for dessert in the neighborhood. We'll be back to try more flavors!

The amount of innovative flavors here is so good and I want to try them all but the slices are a bit pricey! I ended up going with the Thai Tea Tiramisu because thai tea is one of my favorite drinks ever. So the flavor was there but very subtle because the ladyfingers were not soaked enough. In my opinion, a tiramisu needs to be WET, kind of like a tres leches. I really wish that wad the case here because then this would be a 5 star dessert for me. I will say the mascarpone cream was very very light and creamy and that was impressive! A great dessert overall just not what I was hoping for, but I would go back to try another flavor.

Finally got to come back to cafe 2by2 to try out the original tiramisu and pandan coconut!! We chose to get seated and the wait was about 15 minutes, it was really popping there! Our original plan was just to get the original tiramisu but once we saw the pandan coconut we couldn't resist to NOT get it. And since we were sitting down we chose to order some drinks! The place is very cute and clean, the staff attended to everyone despite how packed it was, the bathroom was super clean as well, and it's just such a cute cafe vibe. Original tiramisu was exactly was I imagined it was PERFECT. I loved it so much!!! So creamy, the cake part was so bouncy and light, it's the perfect amount of sweetness, seriously just the best tiramisu ever. The pandan coconut was soo good. The pandan and coconut flavors are very well balanced, like you can taste both equally rather than one flavor being stronger than the other. And just like all the other cakes we've tried there, it's the perfect amount of sweetness! I can't wait to continue to try new flavors everytime I come visit New York!

Came about 40 minutes before closing so the options were limited - we ended up still being able to try a few we wanted to! Plenty of seating and fast service. The tiramisu itself was okay the table favorite being the strawberry. Everything tastes super fresh but nothing was standing out too much. The dessert wasn't super sweet which was nice as well.

They have very interesting and unique tiramisu flavors. Sadly, they do sell out of flavors if you go later in the day which is a bit disappointing. Overall pretty quality, they're flavorful, yet not too sweet. The cream is delicious, but the breading is a bit dry. I also got the pink guava matcha which was light and unique! The presentation is extremely nice and easy on the eyes. Such a cute place to meet up with friends or study!

We came here on a Sunday night and were able to sit immediately. We ordered the Pistachio Berry Tiramisu, Thai Tea Ovaltine Tiramisu, and Pandan Coconut Tiramisu on our phone via a QR code. The flavors in the Pistachio Berry didn't really go well together but tasted good separately. It also tasted a bit stale compared to the other two. The Thai Tea Ovaltine was light in flavor and delicious. The Pandan Coconut packed a stronger flavor and we thought the combination of flavors was best in this one. Overall, the flavors of the tiramisus were unique and we thought this was a cute shop. The decor was very cute and coquette style. We noticed some tables had glasses of water but we weren't offered any. Though the prices on their menu are high, it's worth a visit.

We were admittedly impressed by the tiramisu, but the hefty price per piece left an even bigger impression. The flavors are all very appealing and picturesque (perfect for social media), but I was initially unsure if I'd consider them tiramisu just because they were layered and cut into squares. Surprisingly, the two we tried did read tiramisu to our palates and we thought they lived up to the hype: + Seaweed Pork Floss Taro Tiramisu ($13.95): I love a savory/sweet combo and the pork floss was the perfect complement to the creaminess. Would definitely reorder. + Oreo Mochi Tiramisu ($13.95): Love the addition of the mochi layer in this one and true to being an Asian dessert spot, this struck the perfect balance between Oreo but not too sweet. Very aptly named, CAFE 2BY2 seats mostly parties of 2 with a total of 14 small tables (I think only one was a 4 seater in the very back). If you're dining in, simply grab an empty table and scan the QR code to order online. (Note: The cafe is up a flight of stairs, so not stroller/wheel chair accessible.) My only complaint is that after tax, each piece of tiramisu comes out to $15+ (not including tip). So although good, I can't see myself frequenting often because of the price tag.

So many flavors of tiramisu and they have regular food as well that I need to come back for! I got the seaweed pork floss taro tiramisu, the durian soybean, and earl grey chestnut. They were all not too sweet and had a good balance of flavor. The spongy lady fingers to cream ratio was also nice, not overwhelming in either sections. Though these were good, I can't say I would get them again, but I can't wait to try the other flavors to see if they taste more to my liking.

I went to visit since this spot since it was 1 of the few that makes different flavors of tiramisu. The peach and lychee didn't have much flavor, so it was pretty disappointing other than the fact it looked really unique. Though both slices of tiramisu were really soft and fluffy, I wasn't super impressed by either of them. I did however enjoy the earl grey chestnut, it had a good amount of chestnut paste and just a touch of earl grey flavor. I might try another flavor if I'm in the mood for tiramisu, but not convinced as of now.

Fire tiramisu. Got the matcha one and it was so delicious, great textures, sweet but not too sweet. The powder on top was a little much so water was needed. Took a few mins to get a table after dinner time, but there was a decent amount of tables in there. Plus they had a bathroom which was clutch. Would defs wanna go back to try more flavors.

Cafe 2BY2 is known for being a tiramisu cafe, as shown by all the different tiramisu flavors in their case. Honestly, there are so many flavors it's overwhelming, making it hard to choose if you're indecisive. The place itself is spacious with tons of seating, bright lights, and quite clean. You can order at the counter or from a QR code at each table where someone will bring your order to you. My friends and I ordered one slice of pandan coconut and early grey chestnut each. These weren't lacking in flavor by any means and I don't think you could go wrong with any of the flavor combinations they offer. I would say the texture for these wasn't the best, sometimes a bite would have a gritty/graininess and they're more solid than traditional tiramisu (this is def a personal preference). The novelty here is what sells it, but I would much rather go somewhere else for tiramisu.

Heard about this place and had to try! Got the original tiramisu and it was delicious. They also had a display of all the other flavors which were fun and unique. However I think a slice is a little too pricey. Also got a drinks which were alright. Inside is really cute with lots of seating. Since this place is quite new, the service needed more refinement. For example, the workers did not know which table ordered what and had to ask the customers what they ordered.

We thought the tiramisu was good but everything else was lackluster. Service was slow since the place was packed. All tables around us waited a while for their entrees. We ordered an appetizer, fries and fried calamari, which came quickly but other tables ordered spaghetti entrees that took much longer. The app came to our table in 10 mins with no napkins. No water was offered while drinks were being made. If you want water, you'll need to ask for it. 15 mins later we got 1 drink and 10 mins afterwards our second drink. The drinks, guava tea and matcha cloud, were just fine. Another 15 mins later we received the tiramisu. Buying tiramisu to go might be better than dining inside the cafe.

Came here right when they opened on a Saturday and grabbed a table with a girlfriend. It was empty until about 12pm and lots more people started rolling in. I love the fast service with the order-by-QR-code system. We got the Pandan Coconut Tiramisu and the Durian Soybean Tiramisu. I loved both equally, both had really strong respective flavors. And they use real durian that you can really taste! The tiramisus are perfect to share. We also tried 2 of their drinks, the Matcha Coffee Latte and the Matcha Coconut Cloud. The Matcha Coconut Cloud is matcha cream foam on top of coconut water. Both were really good, and again had strong flavors. Overall a really cute cafe and perfect spot for a date or catch up! Really hope to come back soon and try their other tiramisu flavors and also their food (pasta/rice).

I was interested in trying Cafe 2by2 for their unique tiramisu flavors. If you dine-in, they have a QR code on the table for you to place your order. There are a good number of tables. The interior was bright and clean, and they had a bathroom. I ordered the Seaweed Pork Floss Taro Tiramisu ($13.95) and Pink Guava Matcha ($8.50). The tiramisu had a nice mild sweetness, while the savory seaweed pork floss complimented the taro well. I enjoyed it. The drink was interesting. I never had guava in a drink, but I was not a fan of the flavor combination. Overall, it's a little pricey for what you get, but if you like tiramisu, I would recommend trying their creative take on it.

Wide selection of unique Tiramisu, however they're at a steep price per slice (~$14 before tip). We came as a group of 5 and the seats are first come first serve. You order off a tablet, receive a text with your order, and the servers bring your order to your table. The tiramisu is very good but also quite heavy with all the cream. I had the Coconut Latte Tiramisu, which had a delicious coconut cream! My favorite that I tried in my party was probably the Taro Mochi! There seemed to be matcha layered into it as well, which made it even better. The Sesame Soybean Tiramisu was also very good, I'm just not a huge fan of black sesame. Overall, it's a place I'd prob only try once, as there are other cafes that are more affordable. However, if you're a fan of tiramisu, I'd say to pay this spot a visit!

I saw this place all over my tiktok and knew that I wanted to try it out. My friend and I came here on a Friday afternoon and the place itself is so cute. There is amazing floral decor everywhere and it is very spacious and bright in there. There is plenty of seating inside and we saw people working inside on their laptops. When you come in there is a kisok that you can order at or you can directly order with the staff there and they will bring you your order at whichever table you sit at. They have both drinks and their famous tiramisus. The tiramisus actually came in a lot of different flavors and honestly they all sounded really good. I decided to get the Camellia Lemon Tea which was surprisingly not really that sweet at all. It was very refreshing and had great floral taste which went along really nicely with the lemon tea. It did not taste syrupy at all. My friend and I got the Sesame Soybean Tiramisu to share and it was very good. I was shocked at how strong the sesame taste was and the dessert itself was so soft and not too sweet. Overall the place is super cute and the desserts are delicious. I plan to come back to try out the different flavors. I will say that it is on the pricier side but it is worth a try!!

~ Sesame Soybean Tiramisu $13.95 ~ [Rating: 3.75/5] Sesame flavour is present, but weaker than I'd hoped, quite delicious though! ~ Seaweed Pork Floss Taro Tiramisu $13.95 ~ [Rating: 4/5] My favourite out of the 4! Love the sweet and savoury flavour combo, the seaweed pork floss complimented the taro really well! ~ Taro Mochi Tiramisu $13.95 ~ [Rating: 3.25/5] Pretty similar to the previous one, minus the pork floss. I like that their Taro has texture, you can taste the smashed Taro! Sadly the mochi did not deliver... the layer is super thin, almost non existence, and the texture is wrong too, way too soft. ~ Coconut Latte Tiramisu $13.95 ~ [Rating: 3/5] A bit too sweet for me, you do get a hint of coconut which is pleasant, wish the coffee can be stronger. ~ Camellia Lemon Tea $6.5 ~ [Rating: 4.25/5] To my surprise, this drink is amazing !!! The camellia is really forward, the strong floral note works elegantly with the lemon tea! I requested for less sugar, so it's the perfect level is sweetness for me! - - - - - - - - - Overall Rating: 3.5/5 Will I be back? No - except for the camellia lemon tea! $13.95 is REALLY steep. I think these desserts are pretty nice, although sponge is not that fluffy and moist, the cream is okay - as expected. Love the variety of flavours, and they deliver the flavours as described, but it's nothing to write home about. I went in when they are doing the BOGO offer, which I think is a reasonable price. But at full price? Nah... you can get better dessert at this price.

I should have listened when friends recommended this place. The staff is patient and the food is worth savoring. Their food quality surpassed normal expectations. Workers at Cafe 2BY2 welcomed our family with open arms. I found this satisfying restaurant while browsing online.

The staffs were friendly. Ordered via kiosk and dined in. There were so many tiramisus to choose from. We got a coconut matcha drink and peach lychee tiramisu which was good. The tiramisus are a little pricey. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambience: 4/5

Can be a fight to get seats here. I personally thought the taro mochi cake was alright, but the other tiramisus seem to taste good so I'll have to try something else! It's cute here and definitely a photo op place. Can be loud or service can get hectic from how popular this place is.

I was so excited to try this place. My SO told me about this place and we went the first time together and ordered one tiramusu for the both of us to share. We used the kiosk to order and the staff were helpful in helping us make our decision. There are so many flavors to choose from. We had friends visiting the second time and we recommended this place so we went the weekend after for our second visit. We tried even more flavors and they were so good. Some of the tiramusu is super sweet and the flavor is strong. I definitely recommend sharing if you can unless you know you really can eat one flavor the whole time. The interior of the place is cute and cozy. It is small so it can be tough to get a seat especially during a popular time. They do have a bathroom and WIFI which is great! The actual cakes sell out quickly so one day we will come early to try one of the cakes our other friend recommended. Sadly, the second time we visited it was already sold out. I also am curious about the pasta dishes as that is also on the menu. Location is great and easy to get to!

Had to wait a bit in line to get in, and the kiosk was not working so I ordered with the cashier. Seats are just first come first serve, and I was lucky enough to find a seat because it was very crowded! Only 2/3 of my order came (my Gardenia Lemon Tea was missing) and I had to go up to the front to tell them. Soon after my drink came and it was honestly SO refreshing and flavorful! Like literally my throat was being refreshed with every sip. I would highly recommend this!! The flavors for Taro Mochi Tiramisu and Peach Lychee Tiramisu were strong and tasted better than I expected! You can definitely taste and feel the mochi in the Taro Mochi Tiramisu. Honestly, these slices are a lot bigger than they look so I would recommend sharing with your friends! I took a point off for service. It was almost impossible to get a box to take the rest of my tiramisus home.. I had to ask 3 times, twice to the main guy and once to someone making all the drinks to get a box. I tried to be patient and wait as I knew they were busy, but I wish they would have acknowledged me when I was standing and waiting for awhile.. Instead they would just pass by me as if they had forgotten that I had asked for a box multiple times ): But the to-go box is very pretty and legit!! Honestly felt like this would be good to bring as a gift as well. I would recommend going when it wouldn't be too busy! Still curious about the other flavors and the savory dishes, so I will definitely back (especially for the Gardenia Lemon Tea as well)~

Really cute tiramisu-themed cafe! They have a bunch of super unique, asian-influenced tiramisu cake flavors, but they also serve actual food and interesting matcha / espresso based drinks. We shared a slice of the lychee tiramisu, which I liked, and I got the pink guava latte (could definitely taste the guava but personally not sure I liked it paired with coffee). The cafe was super busy on a Sunday afternoon and people were waiting at the entrance for a seat by the time we left around 5pm, but it might be a nice place to work during the weekdays when it's quieter (there's wifi and a bathroom). Will definitely drop by again to try their other tiramisu flavors!

Cafe 2BY2 is a cute little shop that popped up with the tastiest desserts! They specialize in tiramisus, and have all sorts of interesting flavors for you to try. Like all asian desserts, their tiramisus are well balanced, and not too sweet. They also serve some food, mainly pastas and some small bites, along with teas and drinks! I really enjoyed their seaweed pork floss taro tiramisu, which was not a combo I thought was even remotely possible. Their dalgona coffee was also nice and fragrant! The shop itself looks more spacious than you think, and is made lively and homey with the floral decor. They are a laptop friendly space, so if you want to get some work done while appreciating a sweet treat, then this is the place for you!

When I heard there was a tiramisu cafe located in NYC, I ran to try it out when I was visiting New York. With so many tiramisu (and dessert/food options) I definitely was a little overwhelmed, but it was a good thing! I feel like there are tons of unique flavors and varieties to try out. I ended up getting their sea salt caramel tiramisu which was delicious! It wasn't too sweet and had the perfect salt-to-caramel ratio. The ladyfingers were nice, soft, and spongy but slightly too thin. I wish the ladyfingers were a bit thicker because it was a good majority of mascarpone cream. None of the flavors were too overwhelming/powerful either and it felt rather light which I enjoyed. The price for a slice of tiramisu (although decently large) was a bit pricy. It was about $15 for a slice which I thought was overpriced but it is indeed quite tasty. It's a cute vibe with a good number of tables that fill up very quickly. It seems like a lot of people like to study here with a sweet treat! Since they get busy, it can take a minute to get your order, so just be prepared. They have an ordering kiosk that also makes things go a bit faster. Overall, I would recommend checking out Cafe 2BY2! It's a super cute place with lots of unique Asian inspired flavors for their desserts.

This cake was good but honestly mad expensive. I really enjoyed sitting here with my friend and chatting since the inside is super cute, but almost 20 dollars for a piece of cake is wack.

Huge potential with all the variety of tiramisu flavors, almost something for everyone. Cafe works as a seat yourself and order via QR code and pay for food & drinks online. The food will be delivered to your table. Service was super slow and staff seem not really hospitable at all which is a little confusing considering it's a fairly new cafe. I also went to the counter and asked for water at some point but the staff told me they'll bring it to me and it never came. It was also more needed because the tiramisu itself was dry. The cream was good but the lady fingers needed more soaking and the tiramisu didn't really have any espresso flavor. Maybe the other flavors taste better? The cafe itself also didn't feel super clean. Lots of leftover dishes after people left their tables and the restroom toilet was not clean.

Oh. My. Goodness. The moment I step into this cafe and sit down comfortably at a table, I never want to leave. This is my second visit here and I'm still ever the adoring fan of Cafe 2by2. It is so rare that you find a spacious spot with plenty of seating, tables and a reasonably priced menu in the St Marks area. Most of the bubble tea places here are standing room only and fail to offer a reprieve for your weary New Yorker feet. Upon entering, you're greeting by an ordering kiosk, soft lighting, beautiful floral arrangements, and an inviting space with a chill playlist. During my first visit here, I had the yuzu matcha which was admittedly not my cup of tea. It was too sour for me, lacking any milk or sugar to temper the strong yuzu flavor. My second time here, I ordered the Camellia lemon tea, a floral, refreshing drink that quenched my thirst immediately. They also have some beautiful fruit desserts. Their tiramisus are made with fresh fruits like lychee and durian. I highly recommend the lychee peach tiramisu, a memorable dessert made exquisitely. The delicate sponge of the cake combined with the lychee cream just melts in your mouth, creating an experience like eating a cloud. This unique combination of flavors won me over immediately. In my eyes Cafe 2by2 is a haven that I'd like to keep a secret spot for my close friends and I. Their desserts and drinks are reasonably priced, they have free WiFi, and a clean restroom. It's very demure, cutesy and mindful ;)

I stopped by after having a late lunch around the corner, but I did not have the opportunity to try it since there was a wait. I was planning to order to go, but I couldn't eat it right away, so I left the place without trying. Everything was beautiful. I never saw this many flavors of tiramisu. I hope to try it during my next visit to NY.
