I'm neither vegan nor gluten-free, and I thought that oreo ganache cake was good as hell

All of the ice cream is gluten free and vegan, as are the waffle cones. They do make some baked goods with gluten but are very knowledgeable on keeping them separate.

Why did I wait so long to try this Lawrence Avenue place out??? Phenomenal. Top tier. Made by skilled people from Southern Greece. Ate the chocolate baklava roll right there which was fairly priced for the high quality and substantial quantity I got. They have cute little counter seats by the window. And then after being offered a sampling of a delicious sweet bread I was absolutely hooked and got a dozen powdered almond cookies for the gathering I was going to. The best cookies of this type that I've ever had. The kind owners even threw in a gluten free almond paste cookie with a raspberry middle for my GF friend (they do have some gluten free and vegan selections). Had a nice conversation with the chill owners and left with my treasures snuggled in a pretty box. The treats were devoured by all at the gathering. Everybody loved it and I mean loved it. This bakeshop has been in business for 35 years. They deserve our support. I will most definitely be back for more. I especially want to try a spinach and cheese pie next.

It's a wonderful neighborhood grocery store! I appreciate that I can buy a single piece of fruit or vegetable, and don't have to buy produce in bulk or wrapped in plastic. The employees are friendly and the store is clean. I also love that they offer a variety of international products and gluten free pastas and flours as well. I highly recommend!

The plating at Sweet Moon is so exquisite that I imagine a chef using a pair of tweezers to meticulously place each item to be displayed on the dish. My mother and I talk for at least two minutes about the layout and design of the plated food before diving in and being even more amazed by the flavor combinations. My favorite menu item is the Merengue Roulette, a gluten-free merengue with mascarpone pistachio cream, raspberry jam, baked almond, and whole pistachios. For such well-crafted and well-balanced dishes, the wait time is not long, usually not exceeding 10 minutes. Although the place is typically always filled with people all customers are respectful of the noise level and it is quiet and serene. Great place to work or catch up with a friend!

Very nice, accommodated my friend who had celiac's disease and needed a gluten-free bagel. It was excellent, she said. Thank you for being nice! It's hard to find a place all of us friends can eat together at. We will definitely return!
