Damascus Sweets

Service was amazing! I tried the Dubai chocolate for the first time and it was such a treat! I also got to try a baklava sample and it was delicious. I will absolutely come back to this store for more! Edit: I came back! Still amazing :)

Great variety of Baklawa pastry. Everything is made in-house and is very fresh & crispy. Seems like they put a lot of efforts to the details as these small pastry Baklawa requires lots of layers & efforts to prepare. The End result is definitely worth while. Must ask what's the filling inside as they're loaded with nuts & people who're allergic must confirm before consumption.

The best middle eastern sweets n treats i ever had. Fresh and flavorful. I adore this place. 10 star customer service. The best dubai chocolate I ever had. Ahmed you treated us like family. Thank you. For a full review check out Annastravelsnyc on Instagram & Tiktok next week. This place we stumbled upon. Not sponsored. Everything I ate was 10 star.

Went in for Dubai chocolate with pistachio and kunafa. Young professional man from Moraco had treats to taste. Omg....delighted so I got a couple of things. Thank you.

The sweets here are amazing❕️My favorite is the Dubai Chocolate🍫 even though I think the $7 for the small piece is a little pricey for size & could be less but what can I say, it still tastes good. The Baklava & Baklava with nuts is also good, etc.

Absolutely top-notch Baklava. All the sweets are "eat with your eyes" type, fantastic work! Take-out only: mamool, semolina honey slices, and kanafeh. The staff is friendly, generous they gave to try baklava (which i missed taking the photo) freshly made. This is an great example of how to win a customer :) I enjoyed the baklava and the mamool. The kanafeh has cream inside, i prefer the crustier type of kanafeh. And the semolina is a good choice with tea as it has honey. Is what we call "small hole in the wall" therefore, the space is limited and not a spot to eat rather for takeout. Thank you, great work!

I love this spot. My Egyptian dad loved his cake and desserts from here. They really made my dad's day so special.

I literally cannot walk past this place without buying knafeh and warbat. Sooooo good - I'm obsessed...and gaining weight but SOOOOO DELICIOUS. Everyone is so kind there and makes recommendations. I think it feels daunting at first to walk into an arabic establishment when you aren't Arab but they are patient and friendly so if you're curious, go in and check it out. Let them know how sweet you like your desserts and they can recommend something you'll like. Everything is reasonably priced as well. Everytime I go in there I buy several things and it's always like $12 lol.

Tried it based on a random TikTok video highlighting the infamous "Dubai Chocolate." Verdict: Dubai Chocolate bar was good but not great. And at $7 a piece, it is ridiculously overpriced. Worth $4-5 at most. Either make it bigger than e lower the price. No value in that bar except novelty. Chocolate covered baklava: taste was very good. Chewy and sticky with a chocolate layer on top. $2 a piece Chcolate covered kanefa roll: a bit dry but not the greatest. $1.50 each piece Kanefa: Star of the show. Delicious, Decadent, cheesy, and sweet. A 4 inch x 4 in piece is about $4. I microwaved it for 15 seconds and enjoyed it with tea. Staff was nice and gave me a free sample. Like a said, a bit pricey but good for a unique $20 experience.

This spot is absolutely amazing. If you love sweets and have a sweet tooth, this is definitely the spot. The baklava & Knafeh are top notch and highly recommended. Everything I tried was great. Lots of variety at very good prices. The place is small but is filled with goodies. Service was friendly and professional.

best pistachio baklava & they're open pretty late. satisfies my craving every time!!!!!

I'm so glad to have discovered this! I have been going to Astoria for these sweets and now there is one that is walking distance from me. The staff is very nice and the kanafeh is very good. Can't wait to try the rest.

The best sweets point blank, period! I sent my hubby to pick up some sweets, not only were they incredibly kind but they also educated him on pronunciation and introduced him to a variety of sweets. We had pistachio baklava, konafa, and a variety of other sweets that I wasn't expecting. So delicious and just based on how happy hubby was I know the service was on point as well. Thank you! Now I know why you guys are so highly rated! You even treated a complete outsider like family.

Extremely good coffee and sweets. Took everything to go and sipped the coffee on the rainy walk home. And over and above service. Definitely going back.
