After browsing the European royal chocolates and the tiramisu lineup in the first-floor dessert case, I ordered the signature pistachio tiramisu with an iced americano, and the crunchy pistachio bits and dense mascarpone cream came together without feeling heavy. With study and work floors plus a rooftop on top, Selected Nicks lets you pick a seat to match what you came for. ## Good to know - **Location**: 37 Teheran-ro 4-gil, 1st floor, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (between Gangnam Station and Yeoksam Station) - **Ordered**: Pistachio tiramisu, iced americano - **Space**: 1st floor desserts and chocolates, middle floors for study and work, rooftop on the top floor *as written by the visitor on Sep 22, 2026* Right between Gangnam Station and Yeoksam Station, in the middle of a busy downtown stretch, I found a large space with great vibes, serious scale, and some truly special desserts.

On a nice day, sipping a coffee up there with the breeze was a truly fantastic way to relax. ![Rooftop seating on the top floor of Selected Nicks](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-09-b0uzl-900.webp) ![View of downtown Gangnam from the rooftop](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-10-1swsq-900.webp) ![The open rooftop space at Selected Nicks](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-11-pv7i8-900.webp) ## The tiramisu varieties and what I ordered True to its reputation as one of Gangnam's top tiramisu spots, the dessert case here is absolutely packed with a huge variety of tiramisu flavors. ![Display case with a variety of tiramisu flavors](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-12-p4znr-900.webp) ![Original and fruit/nut tiramisu lineup](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-13-1g4y1-m-900.webp) From the classic original to creative versions with fruit and nuts added, the lineup makes choosing a happy struggle. Among them, I ordered the signature pistachio tiramisu, the most popular for its nutty flavor, along with a refreshing iced americano to go with it. ![The pistachio tiramisu and iced americano I ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-14-12fot-900.webp) ## How did the pistachio tiramisu taste? The pistachio tiramisu arrived shortly after, and just visually it was overflowing with a sense of luxury. ![Pistachio tiramisu served in a large bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-15-1fawh-900.webp) ![Top of the tiramisu topped with crushed pistachio](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-16-1uyut-900.webp) A large bowl was packed full of firm yet soft cream, topped with crushed pistachio bits and more cream — it made my mouth water just looking at it. ![A spoonful cross-section of the pistachio tiramisu](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-17-1gq7l-900.webp) The moment I scooped up a big spoonful, the coffee-soaked moist sponge, the soft and rich mascarpone cream, and pistachio's distinctive nutty, faintly sharp flavor came together beautifully. ![Mascarpone cream and the moist sponge layer](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-18-1493u-900.webp) The crunchy texture of the pistachio bits with every bite gave it a depth of nuttiness incomparable to ordinary tiramisu. It wasn't overly sweet, letting the deep, rich flavor and softness of the ingredients themselves shine, so I enjoyed it without getting tired of it, right down to the last spoonful. ![The pistachio tiramisu, half eaten](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-19-85d30-900.webp) The iced americano I paired with it also had a clean, well-balanced flavor of acidity and nuttiness, lifting the sweet, soft flavor of the pistachio tiramisu and helping bring it to a clean finish. ![The iced americano served alongside the dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-20-44xo9-900.webp) The pairing of dessert and coffee was perfect — between bites of tiramisu and sips of americano, I emptied the bowl in no time. ![The empty tiramisu bowl and coffee cup](https://img.superchart.com/images/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu/selected-nyx-gangnam-pistachio-tiramisu-21-f81be-900.webp) ## Who would I recommend this to?
