Crema's Take

“This beloved New Orleans institution is a genuine slice of Italy, where they're still making cannolis fresh to order alongside an impressive lineup of traditional Italian pastries, tortes, and what locals insist is the best gelato in the city. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between bustling destination and comfortable neighborhood spot—you'll find unhurried seating, attentive staff, and a warm welcome whether you're stopping by solo or bringing your bestie for an indulgent afternoon. It's the kind of place regulars visit multiple times a week, drawn back by the authenticity of the desserts and the genuine hospitality that keeps the 4.8-star rating well-deserved.”

Probably the closest to real Italian desserts you can get in Louisiana. Light and delicious cannolis and other little pastries! It’s hard not to overbuy all the desserts they have to offer. They even have baked Alaska! I need to try it next time for sure.

This is one of my favorite places; I go three or four times a week. But the last four times I've been, the cappuccino has been awful. This used to be one of the few places where you could get a decent coffee. It was just foamy water, a terrible experience. I should invest in a barista.

A delightful and popular institution among NOLA bakery gelaterias. Outstanding traditional Italian pastries; tortes, cannolis, eclairs and cake slices. Good assortment of gelato flavors. Also quite a variety of imported packaged Italian delicacies displayed for gifting and take home. There are a handful of small tables in front and more sit down tables just above/beyond the main floor. Parking is tight in front, but there's a variety of options nearby.
