Good place. No frills. No fancy decor. Just decent knishes. A bit overpriced but I guess they can be on account of being instagram famous. Items were OK. The blueberry cheesecake was to die for, but the others were meh... especially the mozzarella jalapeño, which was a huge letdown.
Go once. Post it on instagram. Then move on.

Recently stopped in on. Sunday morning while visiting New York. Got a chocolate cheese knish, blueberry knish, potato and kasha. All are delicious. The sweet knishes are cheesy, creamy and rich, and enough chocolate and blueberry to add to the flavor. The potato and kasha knishes are yummy too and froze well, didn't last long though as my family wanted to eat them! Unfortunately we went on a Sunday at 11 am when they opened so they did not have a good selection, of the sweet or savory varieties. I'm hoping next time they will as I do plan a return on my next trip!

A truly old world spot to take a trip back in time. They also have excellent knishes, many varieties. Maybe due to Covid they no longer allow in store dining but they are worth the take out experience even if you have to reheat them when you get home.
