Chikalicious Dessert Bar

Overpriced, not tasty

For an amazing dessert spot to satisfy your sweet tooth, this is the spot. These desserts are amazing and well thought out with tons of unique flavors and textures. I have been coming here for awhile and I am never disappointed in what I get. Make sure to get a personal tea pot to elevate the experience. Staff were super friendly and bathroom was clean. Cozy spot so max 4 ppl for optimal experience. Reservations encouraged by not required.

I cannot give enough laurels to Chika and her dessert bar. She has surpassed our expectations and serves the most sublime sweet treats in all of NYC! Chikalicious is a must-go food destination! I do highly recommend reservations.

Upon our arrival, we were greeted by a charming ritual of ringing a bell before being ushered to the bar seating. The omakase dessert menu, priced at $29 per person, promised an intriguing experience. Our culinary journey began with a delightful pineapple sorbet, layered over a creamy, yogurt-like base, and topped with roasted coconut flakes. This dish was an absolute standout, inspiring me to try replicating the pineapple sorbet at home. I’d happily rate it an 11/10 for its refreshing and well-balanced flavors. We then ventured into the heart of the menu with two main desserts. The first, a pound cake accompanied by cream and ice cream, unfortunately, didn’t quite meet my palate’s expectations, leaving me a bit puzzled with its combination. I’d reluctantly score it a 1/10. The second dessert, a renowned fomage cheesecake, boasted a texture somewhere between a soufflé and foam, with just a hint of sweetness. However, the texture and flavor profile were not to my liking, earning another 1/10. Additionally, we sampled some small cookies which, while passable, were rather unremarkable—another 1/10. The accompanying tea was decent, contributing to a total expenditure of around $80, including tips. One of the highlights of our visit was the opportunity to watch the desserts being artfully prepared right before our eyes, though the seating could have been more comfortable. While the experience had its highs and lows, I remain undecided about returning. Perhaps the allure of that exceptional pineapple sorbet will draw me back in the future.

Ambiance cosy , super accueil !!! Arrivée alors qu’il était fermé il nous a laissé entrer et déguster son meilleur dessert fromage blanc island magnificent !!!

Best place ever

Excellent, delicious I be back!!!

Physically a small place, but very very high quality. For seat in, it costs 25$ for small appetiser, a relatively small main, and small platter with three little deserts (everything is sweet). This three meal course is fit for 1 person. Very good and light, not too sweet. I overall really recommend!
