Cannolo lists cheesecakes alongside its cannoli-focused dessert menu, offering slices as an alternative to their piped-to-order pastries.[9] Unlike the Italian-style cannoli that define the shop, these cheesecakes provide a more classic American-style dessert option with a creamy filling and simple crust.[9] The experience of eating one here is about contrast: you can pair a dense, chilled cheesecake slice with the crisp shells and lighter fillings of their cannoli, creating a varied dessert plate.[9] Reviewers note that the additional cheesecake and tiramisu options make this spot appealing to mixed groups where not everyone wants the same pastry.[9][17]
