Whether you’re hungry late night or want to get something quick Bova is always there. They open 24/7. My most favorite thing to get is the rice balls (low key I didn’t want to tell this but I’m telling anyway!😂). I can never get enough of them, they come with the homemade tomato sauce made it the perfect match!

This institution so had to try it. Got a cannoli, tiramisu and some mystery apply thing. The cannoli was amazing and the tiramisu was huge and nice. The apple thing was sitting on the counter and looked good but it was something we never had before it was a combination of apple, dried cherries, etc. It was OK. Service was a bit of a zoo with a free for all trying to get the attention of workers.

Don’t let the line discourage you, it moves quickly! They have an array of pastries like cookies, cakes, cannoli, and so much more. They even have savory options like ham & cheese croissants, calzones, pizza slices and arancini (rice balls). The amount of treats they have is outstanding! You want to leave with a bit of everything! Staff is nice and they answered all of my questions. I got the ham and cheese croissant, steak and cheese arancini and the chocolate chip rugelach. Listen, the ham and cheese croissant didn’t even make it up the street! I literally turned back around and ordered more treats. The croissant is buttery and flaky. I had the rugelach for dessert and that was so good. The steak & cheese arancini is so tasty and filling. I can’t wait to try more pastries off the menu. This spot is conveniently located right in the heart of Little Italy. And did I forget to mention that it is 24/7? Definitely check them out!

It’s an experience to say the least! Be ready to order when it’s your turn or they’ll skip right over you. Even if you just take a little too long like my husband did. The line was long but very efficient and moved quickly. The line was almost out the door when we entered and we were in and out within 10 or so minutes. The pecan pie bar is the best I’ve ever had in my life. I don’t even like cannolis but I like theirs!
