Good kunafa and friendly staff. Place was clean and reasonable number of seating. Gave 4 stars because the halawet aljibn was stale, we couldn't eat it and had to throw it away.

This place is so extremely awesome! The goodness is heartfelt. The bakers are always ready to accommodate my orders. Love those golden boxes! Never had such good pastries in my life. A true gift from The Holy Land. There is something deeper than just flour, sugar and cream...the phrase "From our heart to your table" is so very true. There is something truly special about these sweets and these bakers. The awesomeness cannot be replicated elsewhere. This is the place to go for the best sweets, period! Thank you Masri Sweets for all you do! Keep up the good work, you are simply the best bakers around!

I have shared inspirational pic 1 and actual cake made by Masri sweets. I have seen their ad in our community news letter 20 years ago and never got a chance to visit until now when we were tired of the same taste or pricy stuff.. i stoped by and was really impressed by the staff… i inquired about few stuff and was advised to reach out to the bakery department next day.. before even i walk out we were offered pistachio mamols. Next day i spoke the the person in charge very sweet and helpful took my order over the phone and cake turned out to be so delicious that everyone asked me where i got it from.. thank you Masri sweets we are looking forward for our wedding cake next week :)

Very good Kanafa! The khishneh is usually not available so you have to ask them for it and it can take a while to make and I guess you’ll have to order a pan instead of a single slice. But it’s worth it!

Good sweet treats! Maybe more fruit flavors incorporated in the menu? More drink options would be better also. Parking isn't that great. Atmosphere is a 6. Plenty of space for larger groups. Prices are a little expensive but as long as the quality doesn't deteriorate it won't be an issue.

The store itself is amazing, the service is amazing and most of all the people and the food is amazing. The inside is clean and spacious and obviously you have to try the kunafa ! I was welcomed and made to feel like a close family member, truly of the best experiences I’ve had in a store ! Couldn’t recommend it more !

The most amazing cake maker in Michigan. Never disappoints in any order I have made. I get all my kids birthdays and family events cakes from him. Always servers every time. Price is always great, decoration is so good, and to top it all the taste is always perfect. My go out cake maker.

I saw Masri Sweets on Food Network a few years ago and made it a point to visit when I returned to my husband's home state of Michigan. The young lady behind the counter was friendly and very helpful. Luckily she guided me away from some of the treats my daughter initially thought about trying due to possible nut allergy cross contamination. My daughter was happy with the ice cream selection. I came for the kanafa which was the best I have ever had! I also purchased a chocolate cannoli and baklava which was beautifully wrapped to go. The baklava was ok but the cannoli cream was to die for. This place is worth the hype! Plenty of parking and easy to find. Interior dining area was clean. I will return not only for the kanafa but the other cakes and treats on display. They use quality ingredients and the customer service is excellent!

I came to visit again and the middle aged guy working back there was very very kind and helpful. He had great customer service and always had a smile on his face! Masri sweets always has the best quality and best tasting sweets in Dearborn and I'll always make it an effort to go there over anywhere else!

This place has always been on my food bucket list for the kunafa and I finally got to try it today. It definitely lives up to the hype! The service was also exceptionally fast and friendly. They even threw in a free piece of baklava with my order just to be nice. While the baklava is "ok", the kunafa is the real star of the show here. Putting oozy cheese in a dessert honestly didn't sound very appetizing to me, but this definitely works and is simply amazing. Everyone should try it before they die.

This place has sweets that are fresh each and every time. I been coming here for 9 years now. Normal experiences but it's never been an issue in service or sweets. Reasonably priced there is a variety to choose from here. The kunafa one of my favorite tastes very good on its own. Turkish delight is good too just be prepared to choose. This place is very well family oriented and caring. That is all. Chief Be the fire in the rain.

Masri Sweets in Dearborn has pretty much everything you need to satisfy your sweet tooth. The best thing is that these sweets are all handmade, natural, no chemicals or preservatives and keep for awhile. The shoppe has a very welcoming entrance and you can sit st a table and have a treat over to the side. Cakes, cookies, candies, pastries, and baklava by the slice, pound or tray. Gift boxed or just plain, they'll let you decide how you want it packaged. We were helped by Hawraa and Fatma. They were so friendly and helped us pick really nice treats out. They took special care to wrap the sweets really good so they'd make it back to Chicago without any damage. All the sweet items were delicious and full of nuts and or lightly sweetened cheese and other goodies! We loved all the sweets but I especially loved the wrapped cookie that was packed with ground nuts galore! You don't find those in too many places. I highly recommend this sweet shop for whatever you're looking for. Thanks Hawraa and Fatma for being excellent friendly and helpful ambassadors of Masri sweet shoppe!

the reviews are true, this place has amazing knafe. it's seriously just like home. they're open until 11pm to satisfy a late night sweet tooth

FAV! So delicious, lovedddddd their baklava (and Kunafa!) and it was really reasonably priced too! Always nice and they really pay attention to detail. Yum!

Authentic middle eastern sweets! Never disappoints! Family owned and always makes you feel like you are a part of their own family!!! I have been coming here as a child and still see the same faces. Highly recommend!!!

Omg what's not to say! This place is awesome and the sweets are sooo very good. The hospitality is above board and you will not leave disappointed. I highly recommend this establishment!

O.M.G.!!! If you are looking for the freshest, tastiest baklava in metro Detroit- this is it!! I had a client send this to my office more than 20 years ago, and it's been my "go to" for middle eastern sweets ever since!! The prices, quality and service can't be be beat- and did I mention absolutely DELICIOUS!! The large tray is an over the top gift, and the small tray of philo baklava (pictured) is the perfect host/hostess gift!! My husband was so jealous that I sent these out to clients, that he went on Christmas Eve is pick up two more large trays- and was shocked that we didn't need to pre-order and how fast the service was- Masri is the BEST!!

Great sweets and excellent friendly service. Went for the knafeh but had to try ashta too. The pistachio ice cream and ashta ice cream was amazing!!!! Visited from DC. Khaldoun was very welcoming, friendly, and fun....the best!!!

Food, service, friendliness. Recommended new things to try that were amazing. Will definitely be back!!

My father loves this place. Every time we're nearby he practically begs me to come and get a box of sweets. He goes crazy for it, frfr. Great decor too.

So I came back after a couple of weeks and they did improve from the last time. I had baqlawa and knafeh, both of which were delicious. The tiramisu was good as well. I also liked how they did have napkins, as compared to last time. I don't have much else to say other than that the place improved. If you want more information go to my previous review. I will be returning. Thank you Masri Sweets! :)

They make the best cakes ever! I have gotten multiple cakes over the last few years and they never disappoint. I can't recommend enough.

One of the few places in the area to get the best kunafa in my opinion. The inside is a bit outdated. The desserts are superior though. The staff is nice, it is a bit confusing figuring out where to get help from, would be nice if they had signs or something to navigate those waiting to order and those who already placed their order.

Absolutely fantastic desserts, but customer service? Ordered 3 half trays ($16 each) and gift platter on 12/12/21. Received my package 11 days later, but it was missing 1 half tray assortment. Emailed on 12/23 upon arrival, on 12/30 and again on 4/21/22. No response or acknowledgment. Also called and left a message. No response. There are other places to order from who care about getting the order right and following up if they didn't. Too bad, because the desserts are delicious.

Love Masri sweets. The staff is always kind & respectful, and the desserts are always great. Never had an issue. Clean place, sometimes hard to find a parking spot due to school & traffic. But all in all a great place for high quality dessert!

The staff was so friendly & I called ahead and she had it ready for me when I arrived! The owner offered me free cookies and they were amazing! The store was absolutely beautiful and I will definitely be a forever customer.

Good customer service and amazing food also I love the Turkish coffee mashallah

The sweets here are amazing! Perfect balance when it comes to sweet. The people here are even more amazing, I have never walked in here and had bad service, they are extremely nice.

Very good and delicious sweet pastry. Nice stuff

LOVE there sweets.the customer service is great and they have everything you ask for I highly recommend Masri Sweets:)

I've been going to this place for years because of their sweets but I will not be going there again i did not expect the owner himself to be this rude. I walked in the place and wanted to order 2 kunafa but the worker told me and my Friends they the kunafa will come out in 7 min so we waited at the couch area and then the owner walks in and said if u not gonna order get outta here i was shocked cause I really wanted dessert but after that I ended up leaving I didn't even want anything from thei.

Ordering from here is a challenge for me because, honestly, I just want to get a large glass of milk and eat everything. My order: *** Finger Baklava: This dessert can be my appetizer, snack, lunch, and dinner! They had just brought out a new tray before I placed my order and I was pretty excited. But the baklava did not fully live up to expectation. The first few outer layers were very dry and flaky. But the center was rich, sweet, and moist. *** Kanafeh: This was my first time trying their kanafeh, and I wish I had tried this all the other times I have come here. The kanafeh was melt in your mouth delicious. I found my new favorite dessert here.

A family-favorite of ours for many many years, especially as gifts for family and friends. It's the perfect size, affordable, and great quality! Pros: lots of variety, friendly employees, good quality Cons: can get very busy and unorganized at times During normal times, my review would be a 5, but the reason for the 3 stars is because there were multiple workers in the store with no mask on. Some with a mask on but bunched under their chin and others with no mask at all. It really irks me when employees don't wear masks and makes me think that they don't care about their customers or workers safety. Our family may have to find a new go-to for our middle eastern pastries.

After lunch decided to try this spot for dessert and it was a decent experience. Ordered certain kind of kinafe with flaky layers topped with pistachio. Pros: -------- Clean & Hygiene Quick Service Spacious Free parking Lot of Dessert options

truly amazing quality, one of the best bakeries / sweets places I've been to in a long time

Oh sweet!!! Price is reasonable! Friendly servers and cashiers. Overwhelming selection of sweets. I wish they put labels on each item for the name, ingredients and price so we don't have to ask what it is all the time ;-). Don't know the items but tasted good. For sure, the green stuff is pistachio and white stuff is made of cream. Diabetic? No problem. They have sugar free options. Service water is available. Dining area is clean and widely available when you want to stay and eat the sweet stuff right away. You pick the item, they put in a styro plate and covered in plastic wrap. The final packaging looks nice. The server/cashier totals the items...we end up paying $17 worth of sweets with 4 pcs of samples, with lots of sesame seeds. Reminds me of eating butchi (fried dough balls with beans or taro filling) from a Chinese restaurant. Lots of free parking at the back entrance. Restrooms are clean. Accepts cash or credit. A tourist must try when in Dearborn!

Service was great, food was the best. I loved their knafe! On point! Ambiance... not so much lol. But you're not going for views, you're going for the food.

I will never come to Detroit without stopping here!!!! Amazing sweets!! Super authentic!

If you are looking for a variety of amazing sweets, this is the place! Although I'm not very good at knowing the names of the Middle Eastern treats, I can tell you that everyone I tried was delicious!! As suggested by others, I tried the Kunafa and it was amazing! Hubby and I also tried a variety of baklava and we enjoyed them all. Single treats can be purchased - which is a lot of fun. There are also premade trays for easy to go. Hubby and I each purchased a small variety of treats and we ate them at a table before leaving. I'm glad we found this place! We will be back!

we drive over an hour for the kunafa! it's always great and so is the staff

Best place in east Dearborn forget about all the other places and go here best desserts ever. Best Kunafa in the world 10/10 recommend.

"Masri" by Janet Jackson Gimme a Kanafa! Sittin' in the movie show Thinkin' Masri thoughts Better buy dessert for me Or you'll turn me off That's right, lemme tell it Masri, Masri boys, don't eat a thing Except for Masri, boys Masri, Masri boys, don't ever change Oh you Masri boys I am such a Masri girl I only like Masri food The only thing I wanna do Is share Masri with you I'm not a prude, I just want some Khanafa (That's right) So bring me Kanafa if you want me to respond Cause Masri is my middle name My last name is Sweets No, my first name ain't baby It's Foxy... Mr Fox E, if you're Masri What to get: Kanafa What else: Everything they serve is good Dre actually took me here. Oh wait, no, he took me to Masri Beats, not Masri Sweets. Masri Sweets. Is. The best. Ever. Like, ever. Simply one of the greatest desserts I've ever had in my life. The number one reason I come to Detroit on a regular basis, and one of the best things of any kind I've ever put in my mouth. Yes, even including those. And yes, those too. I needed soccer shoes, though. They had none. Should have gone to Masri Cleats. The Kanafa I had from here was the second I've ever tried - after the one down the street from Shatila that my good friend in Houston, Zain, recommended. I have to give massive, enormous thanks and credit to Zain, because while the place he sent me to (the rival, Shatila) was excellent, if he hadn't sent me there, I wouldn't have discovered their cross-burb rival here in Dearborn, Masri, and I wouldn't have come here late night to give them a try. And it totally changed my life, and I will be eternally grateful to Zain for that. He just needs to contact me to claim his reward. Shame I couldn't bring the heels girl here (yet). When I do it'll be Masri Feets. Or Masri Teats? So, when I got to Masri, there was a long delay for fresh Kanafa, and plenty of people waiting even close to closing time. Those serving were really, really nice and told me what to order along with the incomparable deliciousness known as the famous Kanafa. Everything was really delicious, but nothing and I mean nothing on Earth can come close to the gooey dreamy perfect warmth of the Kanafa. If it was a butcher shop, it'd be Masri Meats, and if it sold bedding, it'd be Masri Sheets. If they sold chairs, Masri Seats, and if they sold Greeting Cards, maybe Masri Greets. If they were owned by Townshend and Parker (spiderman) they'd me Masri Pete's, whereas if Amanda owned it, it'd be Masri Peets. But it's not. It's up in Dearborn but even if you're nowhere near Dearborn it's worth a massive detour to get here and enjoy this heavenly perfection. I would probably drive hours out of my way to get one. Everyone that shared one with me has said it was one of the best things they've ever tasted. Make sure you get here and try it as soon as possible. The number one place to stop in Detroit. Incomparable. I heard the owner has a side b**ch, but I don't judge, just because Masri Cheats. Get here now. And in the meantime, I'll rap to you. So drive here now, or take a TAXI And if you have no ride, girl, just ASK ME Cause you don't wanna f*** with that Dunkin' CRAP, SEE As Janet would say, that sh** is NASTY And by the way, whoever gave her RHINOPLASTY Has to be the same doc that did Michael JAXY Anyway, my lyricals are getting kinda WAXY And those seeds you gave me kinda taste kinda FLAXY I need a launch pad and I don't mean MAXI And my PC needs protection in case someone HACKS ME My stalker on Yelp uses check ins and TRACKS ME One day, in an alley, I bet the freak ATTACKS ME Until then I'm gonna drink a lot of ABACAXI Com Hortela during drives to WAXAHATCHIE But if you're near Detroit, and you wanna be on CRACK, SEE There's no drug better than Kanafa at MASRI WHAT

I was in Michigan for the first time and wanted to visit Dearborn to try Arab desserts, so a friend recommended Masri Sweets to me. I went on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't busy. The lady behind the counter was helpful in explaining the different types of pastries. I wanted to try both the regular (cheese) knafeh and the ashta (cream) knafeh, but they don't keep a batch of the ashta one to dole out by the slice the way they do the regular knafeh. Instead, you can order a small or large tray of it, so I ordered the small tray for $20. After a brief wait, my made-to-order tray of asha knafeh came out packed in a lovely golden box. I had underestimated the size of the small tray because it was actually huge: I brought it to my boyfriend's extended family dinner and it easily fed 8 people and still had half left over. The knafeh was decadent, light and sweet but not overly sweet, and it was a hit with everyone. None of us had tried knafeh before, so it was gratifying that everyone was so impressed by it. Definitely use the syrup that they pack on the side because the knafeh isn't sweet without it. As for the regular cheese knafeh, I wasn't expecting to like it because I'm the weirdo who doesn't like cheese, but it was really pleasant! I don't know the next time I'll be in Michigan, but I'm going to be dreaming about the ashta knafeh until I return. Thank you to Masri Sweets for the lovely experience! P.S. Boyfriend's grandma loved both types of knafeh and said you can tell that the bakery is really classy because of the beautiful box they packed the knafeh tray in. She said it shows that the owners are proud of their product and put a lot of thought into it. I thought that was a nice compliment!

I don't even need to write a caption. Not sure who looks at this writing and thinks it's okay to give to a customer.

I love their small cookies. Everything from here is delicious. So much better than shatilla. Great service. Space to eat inside.

In some ways this is the Krispy Kreme of Kanafeh. What's missing is the "HOT FRESH NOW" neon sign. But that's the killer app of Masri Sweets. Why settle for a slice of pretty good kanafeh, that's microwaved on a plastic plate? If you are in Dearborn, you don't have to eat second best. The good folks at Masri have hot batches coming out all the time. And there is nothing quite like watching them cut you a square off that crispy, melty, and sweet motherlode. Do you want pistachios on that? Heck yeah! It feels like it could take a lifetime to figure out which Arabic sweet shops make the best treats. While it may be a delicious mystery to unravel, I'm afraid my metabolism couldn't quite keep up. What is very clear, is that the kunafeh at Masri Sweets is the best one I've ever had. And if someone can find a better one anywhere in the Detroit metro, I'd really like to hear about it, because I"m pretty sure it doesn't exist.

Worst experience ever! We have been coming here from out of state for years. After todays experience it will be the last. Service was terrible, server didn't understand Arabic or English l, order was incorrect and even worse the taste was below the prior standards. When mentioned to the server, she said this was their best.

Organized and clean store. Loved the knafeh - very fresh and flavorful! We did have to wait a few minutes before the fresh batch was served. Lots of seating available and parking in the back.

This is the spot that made me fall in love with kunafah and also spoiled me because my standards are now way too high now for kunafah. The space is big- great for bringing a group of friends. They serve other deserts as well- they also have boxed ready gifts full of different sweets as well. The kunafah is constantly made so it is always fresh, it has the perfect cheese pull and they also provide extra sugar syrup. I personally don't think you need it- I think it's perfect as is but I've had it before with the extra sugar syrup and it is amazingggg. I always come here with a fairly large sized group and the staff is always super friendly. If you want good kunafah- this is the only spot to get it!

Was driving by to the airport & saw the reviews. Just had to pull in, best decision this place is awesome. I live in Boston and honestly it's worth delaying there to go load up on Arabic dessert and flying back. They said they would shop Boston , definitely going back for more

My new favorite in Dearborn. For me, the pastries are not overly sweet - just right. They are nicely balanced and tasty. I haven't tried the European pastries, but *everything* else I've had has been on point. In particular, I like the ballorieh, burma and mamoul. The service is also just wonderful. They'll often give you a cookie or cup of tea for the road. Nice folks. They are quick, friendly and neat. Pricing is also good - particularly if you purchase by the tray. Highly reommended.

the best in Michigan I love there Chnafa

Best Kunafa I've ever had! They serve it warm with syrup and pistachios sprinkled over it. Each piece is only $5 and is big enough to share with a couple people.

I've been here a few times. One time to get a birthday cake for my sister. It was so delicious! It was not too sweet and the type of frosting was light not heavy like buttercream. The cake itself was gorgeous. However, I asked them to write "happy birthday" on a piece of chocolate (because there was no room to write directly on the cake), and it was sooooo ugly! It did not look professional at all. They are pretty generous with their samples too. Because of their generous samples, I fell in love with the kanufa. In fact, I had to go back because I was craving it one day. It's not too sweet. However, it is on the pricey side. If you order a tray of baklava, make sure they put the crushed pistachio on it. They forgot it on mine and by the time I realized I had to go to a grocery store to get some. The building is very nice and clean and the staff is friendly.

I love Masri sweets they have really good cakes and kunafa, whenever I'm craving something for dessert or want to pick up cake for that special occasion, I always come here.

We so Love this place the very best in Dearborn a must try. Kanafeh is a traditional Palestinian dessert made with cheese pastry soaked in sweet, sugar-based syrup. It is popular throughout the Arab world, especially in the Levant and Egypt, principally in the West Bank. In addition in Turkey, the Caucasus and Greece. If there's one dessert that rules as the Queen of Arabic sweets, I would nominate Kunafe Nabulsia, the sticky pastry made of gooey sweet cheese sandwiched between layers of shredded kunafe pastry. This specialty from the Palestinian city of Nablus is prepared in enormous round trays, saturated with rose-scented syrup, cut into slabs and garnished with chopped pistachios. In the Middle East, people don't typically prepare kunafe at home. Kunafe is an occasion to go out.

Must visit for anybody going to Dearborn Michigan.The selection is amazing and it taste better than it looks, great staff very friendly they Welcome you with a smile and have you test all these goodness they create.We brought back with us so much We enjoy it every evening after dinner . Delicious sweets .
