Spot Dessert Bar Astoria

This place has some of the most creative desserts I’ve seen in Queens. One of the standout items is the dessert that comes in a little flower pot with a cup of syrup — really fun presentation and definitely photo-worthy. I also tried the jasmine panna cotta, which was very smooth and flavorful. The floral taste is pretty strong, so if you’re not into floral flavors, it might not be your thing, but I personally thought it was really unique and refreshing. Overall, the desserts here are not just tasty but also made to impress with how they look. Definitely a nice spot to check out after dinner in Astoria.

Perfect date spot. All the deserts are good. Portion size are perfect for the price. We went at night when the place was emptier, got seated quickly and were served half an hour later.

I’ve been going to Spot for over 12 years across all their NYC locations. Was so excited to see Spot open in Astoria… and it doesn’t disappoint! The desserts are great, and consistent with their other locations. I appreciate the quality doesn’t suffer from expanding. All their desserts are good but standouts for us are: - Milky Puff - Harvest - Golden Toast A few years ago they had a summer special, the Watermelon Dacquoise, and I am praying they bring it back!!! In my 12 years as an avid Spot Dessert Bar fan, easily their best menu item. They do seasonal menus often and they keep it crafty and interesting. We follow their IG for updates. Service and ambiance at this location is a bit different than their other locations. The service is a little slower, and because it’s a co-owned space between Spot and Pokeworks the seating gets weird when there are many people coming in and out. Would recommend going during down times. However, due to the location being tucked in Astoria, even on weekends we never see it fully, fully packed. If you’ve never had Spot, definitely give it a try. You won’t regret. If you’re a loyal fan, this new location doesn’t disappoint.

Very excited to finally try this new location of Spot in Astoria. It has a nice clean aesthetic and includes a poke bowl spot inside (co-located). We ordered the best seller combo which includes the matcha lava cake, golden toast, and the harvest. Sweet and delicious!! Service was fast and great! Can't wait to come by again!!

We went yesterday around 8 pm to try the cookie skillet. It was really good, the guy working at the register was so nice and welcoming. He brought our dessert over and even asked if we wanted to record the dessert before he poured the chocolate on top. Definitely will go again.

We had the Golden Toast (10/10🥰), Harvest (7/10) and Milk Puff (7/10) and it was very well balanced, allot of textures and crunch where needed ! But the cherry on top was the wonderful personal. Jing L and Sasha took great care of us and we will be back just for the warm accomodation and the continuous water refills :) very thoughtful hosts honestly.

I was “thisclose” to not ordering the golden toast but the server convinced me. It was one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten. The cheesecake pot was crazy too. It was like a dense cheesecake cream with layered deliciousness. The molten lava cake was perfectly made and so good but the golden toast stole the show out of them all. update: have since tried the miso cookie and the oreo cookie, both totally divine. update: the only reason i scored low on the atmosphere is just that it's not my preferred aesthetic is all. kind of "hospital cafeteria" if you will. update: had the milky puff dessert and it was incredible

This place takes desserts to the next level. The presentation is beautiful, the taste is even better, and the staff really make you feel welcome. A must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth.

If you love creative desserts that look like art but taste even better, this place is a gem. Every dish here feels like a little experience -- from the presentation to the flavors. I tried the Green Tea Lava Cake and honestly, it's one of those desserts that makes you stop mid-conversation. Perfect balance of warm matcha, cold ice cream, and just the right amount of sweetness. The vibe is cozy yet lively, great for a date night or a late-night catch-up with friends. Staff were super friendly and didn't rush us, even when the place was packed. If you're in the mood for something that surprises your taste buds and looks Instagram-worthy, The Spot Dessert Bar delivers every time. Definitely worth the wait if there's a line.

A random spot to have dessert after our date nite dinner and while yelping this came up! The desserts all looked so different but delicious so we stopped in on a busy friday nite, and were seated quickly! Mind they're open until 1am so that's always good to know. The staff was very attentive and helpful with the questions we asked about this unique dessert. We went with these two the Golden Toast honey buttered toast, strawberries, whipped cream, cookie crumbs, condensed milk and the Cookie Camp fresh half baked marshmallow cookie, pretzels, cookie crumbs, chocolate sauce, condensed milk ice cream. Let me just say while both were amazing the Golden Toast was out of this world incredible I have never had a dessert like this and it was not overly sweet but had this crunch to the toast which was great with the ice cream and strawberries! This is now one of our go to spots for sure !! We can't wait to come back and try something else, well maybe haha.

I originally came in for the Golden Toast, but it was sold out, so I went with the Cookie Camp instead. For nearly $18 (tip included ), I got a palm-sized cookie skillet with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The cookie itself was mostly raw inside and way too salty. Service wasn't great either--I asked for water twice and never got it. On top of that, another party was seated at the booth next to me, but instead of using the chairs on their side, they squeezed into the booth, leaving me practically shoulder-to-shoulder with a stranger. It made for an uncomfortable experience. Overall, for the price and experience, I wouldn't return

If you're gluten free, the options are super limited. No items are labeled gf on their menu, and the waitress let us know that only the sorbets are gluten free. I had a scoop of the coconut sorbet which was pretty good. My friends had the golden toast, matcha lava, and Oreo cookie cheesecake. They seemed happy with their choices, but did say the matcha lava was a bit too strong on the matcha flavor. The place is split into two with half the wall being designated for poke bowls and the like, and the other half designated for teas and dessert. Be mindful that the aroma of the food lingers in the air, especially if you're just going here for dessert and are not expecting the smells.

It was my first time at Spot Dessert in this location. It's different from their other locations. Here is more of a shared space with another vendor/food court setting. It wasn't very clear if it's self service or table service. My friends and I picked a table near the door and looked at the menu. Since no one came to take our order, I went up to the counter to ask if we were supposed to order there or wait for someone to take our order. She told me that they could come to us but we were not sitting at their tables. Mind you, there were no specifications of what tables belongs to whom. Anyway, I ordered at the counter since I was already up there. We relocated to the table that belonged to them after. We ordered: Golden Toast - had this years ago and loved it. While it's really good, it's quite sweet for my palate now. Cookie Camp - this sounder basic but was quite phenomenal. 10/10! Chai Brandy - I was the only one who liked this lol. It's for people who like Chai for sure Cute spot for amazing desserts. Just make sure you're at the right tables!

So happy Astoria has a location now! Came here later at night (9pm) on lunar new year in the middle of the week. Fast service! I was slightly thrown off by the location being shared by Pokeworks on the sign outside. But it's nice to have options for both in the same dining area. Good location near 30th Ave as well. Had the cookie and the matcha dish. Always delicious! Same as other Spot locations. Will def be coming back. Love that they are open until midnight on weeknights. And there were a lot of other groups also coming in after us on a Wednesday night.

I actually came here to visit the Pokéworks that shares the restaurant space, but after seeing so many people order these delectable desserts, I had to get something for myself. I had the matcha affogato. I love an affogato but never had a matcha version. It was cute but definitely did not compare to the original. My kiddo really wanted ice-cream so I got her a single scoop of their mango sorbet, and absolutely loved it. My son had one of their mango passion fruit specialty drinks. I tasted it and thought it was OK, but not my cup of tea. I really wish we had the time to sit down and enjoy their golden toast, what looked to be a really yummy treat. Almost everyone dining there was ordering this particular dish. It looked super decadent. I'll definitely get one next time I'm in the area.

I really enjoy the desserts here. It can get pretty busy towards the end of the night, but the service is always top tier. Ambience is a little strange with the poke bar right next to you while you dine in but I get making the most out of the space. While I am very high on the food, the drinks are just Ok for me. I highly recommend the golden toast it was PHENOMENAL.

I finally tried this dessert place after seeing it all over social media for years. Not going to lie, the hype is definitely real. Went in for a sweet treat after lunch and was so glad to finally try it. Got the matcha lava, golden toast, and harvest. Each one was delicious with my favorite being the harvest which was essentially a deconstructed cheesecake. It was rich but not too sweet and I love that it looks like a potted plant that you get to "water". The server made the experience even better by checking in on us and refilling our waters when we needed it. I can't wait to go back and have another harvest dessert.

The service is always so great here. Everyone is always so sweet and accommodating! The desserts come out so quick! And are truly mouth watering!!

Service was amazing and my dessert and drink were well balanced.. was not too sweet and the sesame ice cream (first time tasting) blow my mind.

It was my first time visiting this Spot location but I have been to the one in Flushing many times before. We were greeted by the nice waitress and she explained the restaurant's concept. We ordered the cookie camp and the matcha lava cake. It was sooo good. The waitress was kind and let us video her pouring chocolate on the dessert. Our water was refilled without asking. We will definitely be back to try the teas and other desserts.

Spot Dessert is in a shared space with Pokeworks. The matcha lava cake was delicious and the teas are pretty good too. Service was great and friendly. They were constantly refilling our water glasses.

I came here for I guess the official grand opening where you got a buy one, get one free dessert if you were of the first 100 people to show up. I got here early, figuring I'd encounter a long line outside but I didn't so that was nice. I got the cookie camp, which you can't get to go and it's just chocolate heaven along with a seasonal dessert that I took home. I still prefer the cookie camp but the staff was very nice and gave me hope about resolving the rewards tracking debacle that remains since I got a new email address from the one I signed up for. I'm glad to see this franchise thriving since the desserts are truly a foodie adventure. This location is also connected with an Asian themed quick service restaurant that had an interesting menu that felt ideal for an office lunch.

One of my favorite dessert bars has opened up a new location in Astoria. This new location shares the space with Pokeworks and is conveniently located near the 30th Avenue stop on the N train. I went last week when they first opened and it was quite crowded, as would be expected. I have in the past gotten their cookies and egg tarts to go but never any of their desserts. Since there were no available tables during my visit, I decided to try take out for the first time and ordered their classic Matcha Lava cake ($14.95). This is actually my favorite dessert on their menu. It is a dark chocolate lava cake with matcha, chocolate pearls and served with green tea ice cream. The cake and ice cream were individually packed, which I really appreciated. Unfortunately, by the time I got home, the cake had opened and the dark chocolate/matcha filling had oozed out all over the container. It didn't look so appetizing and I was so bummed. The ice cream fared better and was only slightly melted. Everything still tasted great but the whole experience was slightly diminished for me. I honestly will not be ordering any takeout of their desserts in the future. I think for these kinds of desserts, the presentation is a huge part of the whole eating experience, and you just don't get that with takeout. I still would recommend trying them out if you are in the neighborhood. Tip: Earn rewards by downloading their app.

It's a nice clean spot to go to after dinner and continue chatting. Lots of seating and new, so facilities are clean. Service was good, everyone was super friendly. The food was also great- I've been to their location at St Marks and the matcha lava cake tastes equally as yummy. Good default dessert "Spot."

Absolute rip-off -PLEASE AVOID. We wanted to order hot drinks and sit at a table. We asked the employee behind the counter who gave us a drink menu. When we ordered the employee told us that we also needed to buy food or we could not sit at the table. We did, unfortunately, and the price was crazy and ran us up over $40. This is outrageous, especially since hardly anyone was sitting at any of tables. We actually should have just walked out. We will NEVER COME BACK AGAIN!!

Oh man, no one is more excited than The Spot opening in Astoria than me! This is a very well-loved artisanal dessert venue and it still has that new shop smell to it. The chef behind these creations is the Iron Chef & Master Chef of Thailand, Ian Kittichai, who also creates a seasonal menu. Their most popular items are the brick toast, flower pot "harvest" cheesecake that you "water" with milk tea and matcha lava cake. I opted for a seasonal special combo, which was a tangy lemon-mousse with a soft pomegranate sponge, drizzled with peach compote and garnished with sunflower brittle. It was heavenly! My favorite has to be the mont matcha taro, which is a dense pile of spaghettied matcha-cookie butter, taro ice cream and whipped white chocolate. The pandan coconut cake was interesting, very crumbly with lots of textures from the shredded coconut and pandan leche and mango sorbet, but wasn't my fav. Their cookies also come out warmed. Highly recommend for dessert or a milk tea stop. Will definitely be back with friends to try more!

Spot dessert bar is DIVINE. As a seasoned dessert eater (since childhood) I know what makes a good dessert. Its more than just sugar. Its depth of flavor, and more importantly HEART, which spot provides in abundance. The servers are passionate about their craft and will always greet you with a smile. Make sure to tip well to keep the dessert culture in America alive and well!

Amazing service, better dessert!! Got the cookie camp on a rainy day and it is as good as it looks Would come again
