Review Summary

Overall, Pâtisserie Mahrouse draws praise for fresh, flavorful Middle Eastern sweets, especially knafeh and baklava, with reviewers calling the pastries authentic, well made and generously varied, and the downtown location a welcome convenience that saves a long drive. The atmosphere is often described as beautiful and inviting, with warm, attentive staff that make guests feel at home, though a few visits note uneven attention during busy times and one comment about certain desserts being drier than usual. Quality and flavor are repeatedly affirmed, and the assortment of traditional treats such as maamoul, nammoura and halawet jebne is highlighted along with the option to sample items and the pairing of coffee, cardamom Arabic coffee or Turkish coffee. Prices are sometimes described as on the higher side but justified by freshness and ingredients, with some criticism about limited availability of individual pieces at certain hours and the occasional use of disposable containers that detracted from the dining experience. Still, the consensus is that the patisserie is a standout in its category, offering superb pastries, a charming decor and consistently strong service that keeps customers returning.

The knafeh tastes okay, but the portion inside the cake is too small. It feels more like decoration than filling.

Oasis Moyen-Oriental où il fait bon prendre le temps de savourer une pâtisserie dans un décor dépaysant. Stationnement disponible à l'arrière.

Souza & Maria les meilleures de toute Mahrouse

Mahrouseh is truly a gem. From the moment you step inside, you are transported to another time & place. The oriental décor is absolutely mind-blowing-filled with beautiful antique pieces that instantly remind you of an old Damascene house, complete with a charming fountain in the middle. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit.
As for the desserts, the selection is outstanding. They offer a wide variety of traditional Arabic/Eastern desserts as well as Western options, all prepared with exceptional quality & care. The taste is simply amazing. I ordered Halawet El Jibn, a very traditional Syrian dessert made from semolina, cheese, blossom water, & syrup topped with crushed pistachios-& it was perfection. They also serve Kunafeh & many, many other delicious desserts that are hard to resist.
The staff are incredibly friendly & welcoming, which adds even more to the experience. I even asked why they don't open a new branch in BC, & the answer truly impressed me. They explained that maintaining the highest quality is their top priority, & they refuse to compromise by sending their chefs elsewhere-even though they receive requests to open branches in many major cities across the USA & Canada.
That level of dedication says everything. I'm very pleased to have visited Mahrouseh, & it's a place I would happily return to again & again. Highly recommended!

(Almost perfect. Kaake blinked & disappeared.)

Mahrouse Patisserie is a public service. Everything is fresh, everything is good, & the downtown location just saved me a long, emotional drive to Acadie. My gas tank & my mood both say thank you.

I had the knafeh & it was really good. Yes, it's smaller than the Lebanese version we all grew up with. No, I'm not mad about it. Quality is there, flavor is on point, & it clearly knows what it's doing. Very tasty, very satisfying, very'okay fine I'll come back.'

Service? Impressive. Friendly, efficient, & fast, like they know you're there for serious dessert business.

One small comment though… the kaake.
It is tiny. Not'cute' tiny. More like'is this the sample?' tiny. Please make it a bit bigger. I'm not asking for miracles, just something that doesn't disappear in three bites.

Overall, amazing spot, fresh desserts, great service.

I heard a lot of positive reviews, so I decided to try the place & the pastries they sell. I bought 1 kg for baklava for 53 $ plus 15% for the service for a total amount of 61$. First of all, the service was bad, they gave me a ready-made box when I wanted to choose the type of baklava I wanted, pistachio, almond, nuts, etc.
The people serving were very unpleasant & look like they are forced to serve you. For sure, it was the first & last time I visit this place!!!

J'aime bien cette pâtisserie pour sa décoration & son service. J'y passais régulièrement le week-end pour acheter des gâteaux ou prendre quelque chose à manger.
Cependant, ma dernière visite n'a pas été très agréable. Le service est toujours excellent, je n'ai rien à reprocher de ce côté, même si parfois on a l'impression que certains clients sont plus choyés que d'autres.

En revanche, les gâteaux que j'ai achetés cette fois étaient un peu secs, notamment celui avec des décorations de Noël. Malheureusement, je n'ai même pas pu le manger, je l'ai jeté. C'était pour mon enfant, mais la décoration était très dure & le gâteau lui-même n'était pas aussi bon que d'habitude.

Bad service. The place was practically empty & they had the two people in line wait in a restricted area far from view of the products.
