We got two mini sfogliatella en they were absolutely delicious! Came back a second time to pick them up. Especially the pistachio and the lemon cream. The cannolo Nutella was also a treat.

I came by one day and got some sort of focaccia sandwich (not sure the proper name) and a sfogliatella pastry (salted caramel) to take away. Despite the language barrier, the young waiter was very helpful. Their sfogliatella is super flaky and crunchy, very delicious. The next day I was in the area again, and had two more of that pastry (tiramisu / white chocolate) with an espresso, standing at the bar. I don't know why some reviews complain about the price. I paid €6.5 for my takeaway on the first day, and €4.2 for my coffee and two pastries dining in the next day. Very reasonable! I expect if you sit down at a table outside, the prices are higher, and there might be a cover charge. It think that's quite normal in Italy.

We ordered our coffees and pastries and only after read the bad reviews. We were then afraid of being scammed. However, we had a very different experience. The sfugliatella was just amazing, the ristreto really good! We paid 6.5€ for a ristreto, a cappuccino and the sfugliatella.
