My wife and I took our friends here for wine and dessert after a show one evening. First, I love their late hours, and HUGE wine selection. I wish there was a rotating wine list, or even a more extensive/more prestigious wine by the bottle list. But their desserts were huge! Top notch indeed, It wasn't terribly packed for the... More

A favorite spot for the family to go and get great desserts, they are all extremely good and there is great variety. The wait staff is very friendly and helpful. I love the 'Death by Chocolate", between the 4 of us we have tried almost every dessert and have never found a bad one. The one family member attending college... More

Went to Bittersweet before a performance and was pleasantly surprised. Bottles of wine were reasonably priced and the fromage platter and bruschetta were delicious. Would absolutely go back again.

We went to Bittersweet for a late dessert for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was very vibrant and pleasant - not overbearing and noisy like so many other bars. The music and conversation levels were perfect and there was very good traffic for a Saturday night. The service was excellent and our server was polite,... More

this is a wonderful place to come for dessert be forewarned that they only serve wine & beer--no mixed drinks. This is a great place for a date or to hang out with the girls.

I love the desserts here. They are so good. They also have food and a variety of wine options. So good. It doesn't have as much variety as Chocolate Bar in Buffalo, but there isn't anything like this anywhere else in CNY. I've only ever gotten the desserts, but I hear the food is good too. Tough to find parking... More

I am not a big desert guy, but at Bittersweet I can find at least 5 things on the menu that I absolutely love. My wife however needs alot of time to choose, because the selection is amazing and varies with the seasons. Wine list is expansive and I was told via FB that they have local craft draft beers...
