What People Are Saying About Veniero's Pastry Shop

Choose from 40 feet of sweets at the takeout counter, or get a table inside one of two dining rooms. Marble floors and stamped metal ceilings do nothing to soften the caffeine- and sugar-charged chatter, but Veniero's is a popular stop for the dating crowd.
Expect to find Italian pastry of the sponge-cake variety, soaked in rum or liqueur and filled with custard, whipped cream or sweet ricotta cheese. Tiramisu, the ubiquitous lady finger and mascarpone dessert, is still better here than most anywhere else. Wash it down with the very good espresso; do likewise with the cannolis. The baba rum comes in three flavors--sweet, sweeter and sweetest--and there are a half dozen styles of cheesecake.

I have been coming here for many years and the quality has been consistent. I always get the fruit topped cream pie for birthday celebrations

I was anxious to challenge Veniero's NY style cheesecake being declared the NUmber One cheesecake, until my recenr visit. I am "NOT WORTHY" to challenge the well earned awards displayed in their showcase, but I am ready to re-visit a great trip down the smooth,rich and creamy path to cheesecake heaven. As the governator of caly-fornia would say when it comes to Veniero's " I'LL BE BAACK !!!!!!!!!! "

Hi Everyone, My family has a tradition of having cheesecakes for Thanksgiving dessert, and yet again this year Veniero's did not disappoint. We had one regular italian cheesecake and one pumpkin and both were delicious, though my favorite is always the original. Family members from Chicago were so impressed they were wondering if they deliver all the way out there. Thanks again for another tasty Thanksgiving!
