About:This is the festive little Upper West Side cafe where the characters Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan played in the movie You've Got Mail sat together. With its 1890s Parisian decor and floor-to-ceiling French windows, it is a picture perfect spot for a cup of coffee and dessert. The menu includes a variety of sandwiches, soups and salads. The real draw however is the limitless array of desserts, including more than 30 types of cheesecake and at least as many tarts and pies.

    Right out of You've Got Mail. This is where I had first seen this place and I wanted to go to it. When we went in Feb. 2008 it was at night and the lights sparkling from the outside of Cafe Lalo, there was snow on the ground, and it was magical. We went in and had a coffee. We loved it. It is on our place to go list when we come back for our 20th anniversary.

    Fun but way over-priced for the smallest portions I've ever seen. Also very crowded and just not worth the wait or hassle.

    Try Cafe Mozart for a more refined and reasonable desert experience

    This was good 6 years ago. Now the food is boring and the service poor at best, hostile at worst.
