Desserts extend beyond scoops to cakes, pies, brownies, and tarts, with a salted caramel favorite and a playful treat named "monkey's droppings." An outdoor area with colorful seating and games for kids adds to the appeal. A few visits report a hiccup when a cone broke and a replacement was charged a second time, described as an ordinary moment rather than a standard. Overall, Crèmerie Oh! is seen as a beloved spot for quality, variety, and a welcoming vibe with many reasons to return.View restaurant profile

Taglio di Roma is described as an authentic Roman pizza al taglio experience with dough prepared over hours and praised for freshness and a wide variety of toppings. The service is courteous and efficient in a simple, fast format where pizza is chosen through the glass and eaten on the go, with some noting the atmosphere can feel a bit cold or utilitarian. Opinions on the crust vary from light and superb to a thicker focaccia style that is more breadlike, and some reviewers prefer sliced portions while others accept the traditional cut; there is also mention of a very good crust around the edges. Fresh ingredients and authenticity are common positives, though a few past visitors report inconsistent quality or leftovers when reheated. Not all reviews appeal to diners who avoid pork, noting limited non pork options. The experience is described as unpretentious, straightforward, and focused on a true Italian Roman vibe, with notes of a Laval location that offers a similar concept and emphasis on dough and quick service.View restaurant profile
