A walk up window. Cash only. You get a carton of gnocchi with sauce. It reminded me of chef boyardee. It's a fun experience while waiting for bagels next door.

Ça fait deux fois, dont ce soir, que la personne au comptoir fait preuve d'un manque de professionnalisme.
La première fois, c'était le 13 juillet vers 18 h. En arrivant au comptoir, je l'ai vue en train d'allumer une cigarette dans la cuisine...
Je n'ai rien dit sur le moment, mais ce soir, c'était la goutte de trop. En plus de cela, son attitude était très désagréable.
Ce soir, je suis arrivé à 20 h 30 & le comptoir était déjà fermé, alors que ce n'était pas encore l'heure de fermeture. Elle m'a vu arriver &, comme la dernière fois, elle ne semblait pas du tout ravie de voir un client.
C'est vraiment décevant comme expérience car j'ai toujours aimé faire mon tour & habituellement les employés sont très sympatique. Mais cet été est une autre expérience...

Une qualité de gnocchi impeccable pour le prix!
Ça fait changement des prix excessifs habituels pour manger même simplement.

Gnocchi were great, but the sauce was burnt tasting. I saw the pot was very hot & maybe consider using a lower heat.

One of the best gnocchi I've ever tried! I had the extra cheese gnocchi with a spices -it was served super hot, perfectly cheesy, & had just the right amount of spice. Everything tasted fresh, & there were great vegetarian options available. The shop is small & very cute, with a cozy atmosphere. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for fresh, delicious gnocchi

Food's consistently good.

Too bad the front-of-house can't say the same. Whoever was working the afternoon shift on 7/18 could use a crash course in basic customer service… you know, the'treating paying customers like human beings' part of the job. Come for the food, brace yourself for the attitude !

The sauce is good but the gnocchi are to soft in my opinion!
