I stumbled upon this bakery a few years ago, & I've been coming back every year since, always ordering either baklava or beinarein.
I love how the baklava is always fresh & not overly sweet. It has a lot of flavor. I'm not even going to try to name my favorites because honestly, I don't remember the names, I just recognize them visually. But overall, I've liked the majority of what I've tried.
If I had to make a suggestion, I'd say skip Adonis & come here for your baklava instead. I used to order from Adonis, but when I compare the two, Al Sham is so much better. The quality at Adonis just doesn't compare.
So if you're already on the hunt for baklava, just get it from here. You'll save yourself the trouble.
Absolutely incredible - fresh, flavourful, & made with such care! Every bite feels like heaven!!! The selection is amazing, & everything I've tried has been a hit. Highly recommend if you're looking for authentic, high-quality pastries! The service was amazing, always greeted with a smile:)
An exceptional place for authentic Middle Eastern sweets! The quality of the desserts is outstanding, with a luxurious & rich flavor in every bite. From the baklava to the kunafa, everything is perfectly made & fresh. The service is excellent - the staff is friendly, attentive, & ensures that your experience is memorable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy premium oriental desserts!
