Cannoli King

During our recent visit to Nolita in New York City, we observed several locals carrying charming white boxes filled with cannolis, our curiosity was piqued. We approached a friendly local who enthusiastically shared that these were the best cannolis on earth, and her weekend ritual of walking to this spot made it a must-try for us. Upon indulging in the cannolis, we were not disappointed. The atmosphere of the restaurant exuded a vibrant Italian charm, enhanced by the warm and welcoming staff. We sampled an array of flavors, including hazelnut, chocolate, and pistachio, each one more delectable than the last. The experience was a perfect pick-me-up, making it an ideal stop for anyone exploring Nolita. To add to the lively ambiance, we were treated to a fun karaoke session during our visit, which further enriched our experience.

We got there just in time: place got packed real fast. We had a neat table by the window. Good selection of sweet stuff and coffee (which was nice and strong) Ice cream is obviously not made in house and kind of overpriced for the quality but it’s fresh. Nice spot where to rest and have the illusion that Italians are still in little italy. Recommend if you are in the area.

nice place with great cannolis. definitely a bit cramped seating and service was ok but the cannolis are absolutely worth it. so many different flavors and we got one of everything. pistachio and classic were my favorites.

We go to Cannoli King every year during the feast. There are a lot of tasty things, but I love the cappuccino. It's like a tradition.

My husband and I could not deny the cannoli king! We stopped by for a quick bite and sampled the cappuccinos and a few cannolis! We decided to go classic but threw in a small coffee flavored cannoli. Definitely try the flavored options!

We were delighted to stumble upon this place in Little Italy! The cannoli’s are awesome as is the service. I also opted for the spumoni bonbon 😋

I loved this place! The employees treated my wife and I like family! The food was pretty good. It had all kinds of desserts you can think of. Just a solid place if you want to get a quick bite to eat!

I had the worst customer service experience of my life at this location. We initially ordered takeout, but since it was cold outside, we decided to sit inside. Despite the restaurant being half-empty, the hostess—or possibly even a manager—rudely refused to let us sit. After spending around $40 on cannoli, I asked if we could sit inside if we ordered pizza, and she still said no—completely dismissing us. To make matters worse, her attitude felt blatantly racist. We’re from Miami and are used to fast-paced service, but never have we been treated with such disrespect. When I asked for her name, she told me it was Melinda. However, another employee later said her name was Sara—so it’s unclear if either is her real name. It’s sad because the cannoli was good, but no food is worth being treated like this. I will not be returning.

Went here for dessert after eating at their next door sister pizza joint, Baby John's. The place was packed and lively! Think of the restaurant as a bakery meets a diner. And yes - the cannoli's are king. They were delicious. (There are plenty of other desserts as well). Definitely worth a visit if you are in the Little Italy/Chinatown area.

Dessert time on windy day. We walked around the neighborhood and checked out as this is one of the best Cannoli in town. It didn't disappoint us. Had a wonderful time. The servers are great. Quick and efficient. Very lively diner. It is in the tourist area so be prepared to pay a little bit pricey receipt. But worth to try out.

Unfortunately, this place is kind of a gimmick charging high prices for mid to low quality products. Nine dollars for a small piece of cake, five dollars for a bite-size cannoli. Service is also a disaster. They are not clear whether you order at the counter or sit down and order. we stood in line and ordered, and then when they asked us if it was for here, we said yes. They then told us to go sit down and they would bring it out to us. Needless to say, they did not bring it out. We then had a waitress who took our order and eventually brought out our desserts. The inside is also very crowded and not clean. Tables were dirty, chairs were falling apart. I do not recommend this place if you are looking for a dessert.

This is a must visit place when in New York! We come here every time we are in the area. I have never had anything bad from the Cannoli King. There Cannolis are one of the best I have ever had. This is also a good place to sit and enjoy a little break from all the crazy going on around and enjoy a sweet treat. Everyone who works there is also very sweet and nothing ever disappoints!

"Manager" melinda, sarah. Whatever her name is, apparently shes a CIA agent with 100 different alias, we ordered about $45 worth of cannolis, there was 7 empty tables and she said very rudely "am sorry tables are only for people ordering food"...ughhhhh arent cannolis something you enter into your mouth and chew and swallow? I think that would be considered food..i guess its hard comprehending what food is when you look and act and look like a tree trunk from central park. She was very rude and then tried to bribe me with "free pizza", but i kindly said no. Take your "free pizza" and cannoli your way out of new york and please go back to whatever forest your tree lookin self is from. Never coming back to this shithole. Cannolis tasted like a bigfoots ass after he didnt shower for a week.

My wife and I stopped in and I had to try to grab something. We waited in line and after waiting in line were told we could not order from the counter for dine in. We had to sit down. After sitting down my wife was sold we could not order at the table. We had to do it from the counter. Once we get the confusion settled, we tried to put in the middle of our order. Some random guests came over and I asked our server if they could box up their food and so in the middle of our order, she stopped taking it walked away from our table. I don't know what's going on here, but this place is going down too quick. I hope they're able to fix it before it closes down or it goes away permanently.

AMAZING! They were so nice we even met the king himself. I loved my eclair and cannoli. Ambiance is amazing and a good energy. Service wonderful they were so kind and quick.
