Suzie's Pastry Shoppe

Okay, I'm not sure why the people who own / manage this place or work here are just rude and trying to get people out the door. I was shopping for three different people, and asked for a few items to be separated. The look I get when I asked for the chocolate to be separated because three people CAN'T be in one place to share the chocolate. Furthermore, I asked for the chocolate to be separated as I have to drive an hour in between each person and didn't want it soaking. It's an easy thing to do but you have to get permission? She gave me a tub, but when I told her I needed them separated (as I stated 2x) the first time I ordered the strawberry Dubai chocolate cups, the cashier came back with a small solo cup for each one. Aside from that, the chocolate strawberry cups were great. I then saw my favourite thing, and the very reason I drove 1.5 hours to get here for them. I just wanted a handful )possibly half a pound), and was told they were NOT able to do it as they can only be sold by the pound. I can't go ordering a whole entire pound to waste food if I don't finish it. That item was just for me. The interactions here was ridiculous. Especially when I asked if they had dark chocolate Dubai bars, and was given this look as if I was asking the stupidest questions. It was hard to see into the glass with the glare coming from the street. I end up, not tipping as great as I normally would. Actually I undertipped for their counter service. The woman helping me looked at my receipt to see how much I tipped her, and made this face at me. Quite sad when you made it seem like an inconvience to serve me, and then get mad when I do not tip appropriately. I spent well over a hundred dollars here buying treats for others. What's even worse is the emotions that went into these treats. Whilst the chocolate bars were great, the pistachio cakes were a complete failed. They did not taste good. I asked the people I purchased them for. It doesn't mean their other cakes aren't great. Some of the cakes looks fantastic. I'm sure it won't matter to them that this will be my first and only time ever shopping here. It was truly disappointing as I saw so many treats I wanted to come back for. Quite sad considering how much I spend every week on Middle Eastern treats / deserts/ coffee and making the 1.5 hour drive into Houston to purchase these things.

A little drop of sunshine in Houston! The owners are incredibly friendly and kind—they made sure we tried the baklava on the house and it was amazing! We tried all the viral desserts and they were all worth every bit of the hype. The texture of the mousses was silky and creamy, the fruit desserts were refreshing, and nothing was overly sweet. The jams in the center of the fruit desserts were tart and flavorful. Of course can’t forget the dubai chocolate bars and strawberry cup! All the chocolate bars and dubai filling were clearly fresh and made in house. The flavor was incredible and balanced so well with the chocolate. We will be back many times over and recommend this place to everyone who wants to try the viral treats!

Beautiful flavors with a luxurious touch. I tried the $7 Dubai chocolate bar and $8 signature cheesecake—both were rich, unique, and memorable, although I’ve had Dubai chocolate elsewhere for less, with bigger pieces. Still, this spot offers a warm, inviting experience. I’ll return for the baklava, Turkish coffee, and maybe even the ice cream. A charming place for culturally-rooted desserts.

The place is very clean and organized. They have a select variety of food, including cakes, cookies, ice cream, chocolate bars, and chocolate-covered strawberries, among other things. I came for their most popular products and was not disappointed. The service was good, efficient, and friendly.

Suzie’s is WORTH the drive, the price & the experience! The family works together to push out some amazing stuff. They have exceptional service, ordered from too good to go app and missed my window to pickup my order, usually thats a loss but I called Suzie’s and after explaining everything they accommodated to me and were able to give me my order the next day, these are hard working people who love their craft and it shows. Thank you again!

My son really wanted a Dubai Chocolate cake for his birthday so decided to give Suzie’s a try. I have been here before in the past to get other pastries, but this was before Dubai chocolate got really popular. I was able to give them an idea what I wanted via email and pay on the spot after size of cake & date of pickup was confirmed. On the day of picking it up, I decided to get a few Dubai chocolate bars and the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup as well. Place was crowded but line moved quickly and efficiently. Everything was so good and let me tell you the cake was a big hit for the party! Definitely recommend Suzie’s for your party needs: pastries, cakes, chocolates, etc… they were so helpful and great customer service. Thanks again for making my son’s birthday cake experience one of his best memories!

This place has quickly become my family's favorite place to treat ourselves. The people are so kind and go above and beyond to treat everyone like family. I love that i can take my time choosing what i want. I never feel rushed. The pastries are so good like this chocolate cake is my favorite. If you are looking for something unique try the mango by register it is worth it..... 💕 if i could i would give it an 11 out of 10.

Suzie’s focuses on Middle Eastern desserts rather than a full café setup, so seating is limited and the lighting is a bit dark for photos. That said, the staff are very friendly, and the Dubai Fruit Cup was delicious — the pistachios and kanafeh on top were rich and flavorful. It’s best enjoyed when you get everything in one bite. I originally planned to dine in but ended up taking it to go. The cakes also looked tempting — I’d definitely come back to try more.

Came here to try the trendy fruit desserts and was delighted to check out all the other sweet treats they had. I've had their dubai chocolate before and those were delicious. This time I tried the mango and strawberry mousse desserts and I also got a scoop of the Arabic ice cream. The mango and strawberry mousses were super cute. The white chocolate coating was very well decorated as I've seen on tiktok. The mousse itself was light and airy and they tasted like their respective fruit flavors. They also had a fruit jelly in the middle of each dessert that was very sweet. The combination of the white chocolate, mousse, and fruit jelly was much too sweet for me so I could only take a few bites. (6/10) I would definitely recommend getting these to share. Also keep in mind that because these are popular that the price is relatively steep. The Arabic ice cream was a super unique flavor. It was like a creamy floral pistachio flavor. I loved how subtly sweet it was. (7.5/10) I also got to sample the biscoff flavor they had and that was really good as well. The inside is decorated nicely and there are a few tables in there to eat as well. There is such a wide variety of sweets so there is something for everyone and the staff were all very kind. I would definitely come back for more ice cream or to try the strawberry dubai chocolate cup.

I've heard of Suzie's for a long time now so I decided to check it. We came here on a Saturday afternoon and this place was PACKED. The line was outside. I've been wanting to try the Dubai chocolate for the longest time so I got a bar of the Dubai dark chocolate and a mango fruit dessert. Both desserts were phenomenal. I've never tasted anything like the mango fruit dessert. Def my favorite. *Warning* The fruit desserts are $14. I thought it was expensive for the size of it but again, the flavor was amazing. This place is definitely worth trying.

Word to the wise, if you lack self control around sweets, send someone else to get your sweets lol. Inside the store was bustling with activity and excitement for the beautiful eye catching treats! A friend suggested I try to Dubai Choclate, which I must say had a beautiful presentation. I loved the soft inside but did not enjoy the filling inside. Partly because I did not expect the Knafe. I wasn't expecting it so I was a bit disappointed. Sorry I can't find my pictures. Overall, I enjoyed my experience in the shop and plan to go again ! GN3

I came here with a friend for the viral Dubai chocolate and strawberry cup it was eeeeverything. The ingredients were so fresh. Especially the strawberries. It was only $16 so it was definitely a reasonable price. They had a lot of other delicious treats plus gelato. I asked to meet Suzy. The man that was helping me told me that the owner bought the shop many years ago and just kept the same name. Anyways I will be going back

I chose this place because I purchased a to good to go bag. I love trying new places. I went on a Saturday afternoon around 6:00 PM and there was a line outside the door it moved fast. We purchased Dubai chocolate ($7)our first time trying it was ok because my niece has been wanting to try it. Omg that pistachio cake slice is so delicious it is moist like tres leches cake would come back for it again. The zalabya pastry it tastes like straight sugar, Lebanese kanafeh cheese cake taste like corn bread but I didn't like it because cheese (taste like mozzarella cheese). Employee were helpful.

The service was amazing. We even got to sample a few things. Loved being able to indulge in different things. The parking lot is the only downfall but other than that everything was great.

Suzie's is always my go to when I'm craving dubai chocolate. It is a 50 minute drive from me but it's so worth it. All of the staff are so welcoming and friendly. The shop has quick service and even when the line was long the shop was big enough to fit all of the customers comfortably. It is always super clean inside.

It's pistachio heaven! I was here for the dubai chocolate bars, and ended up leaving with baklava and a cup of chocolate covered strawberry also. Everything is so good! I love pistachios and they had quite a selection of pistachio goods as well as other sweets. The shop is very well organized. There are some tables where you can sit down in eat in store. I was there on a Saturday so they were busy, but service was very fast! I'll definitely be back for more.

If you're craving baklava, there's probably no better place for the selection and variety than Suzie's. I first discovered Suzie's after finishing a meal at restaurant Al Aseel, which is a couple doors down in the same strip center. When I first walked in, I was impressed with how many different types of baklava they had on display. The baklava is sold by the pound. The top shelf is sugar free and costs $21.99/pound and the bottom shelf is $19.99/ pound. You can mix and match and get different kinds which include pistachio, walnut, and cashew. They also sell cakes and Dubai chocolate. This time i ordered a few different baklava, including my favorite with walnut, a pistachio and cream cake, and a Dubai chocolate ($7.50). I recommend trying Dubai chocolate if you haven't tried before. It has a chocolate shell with some kind of cream inside. I liked it! The staff are very friendly and patient in answering our questions. There are a couple of small tables inside to eat at, but most people just order to-go. I was surprised mid-afternoon on a weekday there was a steady flow of customers, but the line moves pretty quickly. The parking lot is kind of small, but I've never had issues finding a space. I highly recommend Suzie's.

Been here previously for chocolate and cakes because they have a big variety but came for the Dubai Strawberries! So very delicious, real chocolate! So soft silky smooth when you first receive it fresh. Ate some, had leftover- took it home. The chocolate hardened *REAL CHOCOLATE* I was positively shocked and happy to know the price was well worth it!

Suzie's is a gem! The pastries are always fresh, beautiful, and absolutely delicious. Friendly service and it's my go-to for a sweet treat.

Came here with one intent - to try the Dubai chocolate bar and the strawberry cup. I've had the chocolate bar a few different places and this one is by far the best. The milk chocolate was really good. We asked for thinner piece so that the pistachio filling wasn't overbearing and glad we did (they kept pushing us to get the thicker bar and to grab two, but had to kindly tell them we only wanted 1). The strawberry cup was made fresh. The cup was about $15 (honestly not that much strawberry in there but delicious) and the bar was about $7-8. It is definitely on the pricey side but worth a try!

The area is pretty packed and with minimal parking, so just fyi! I came here specifically for their version of the viral Dubai chocolate. As I walked in, I was beyond surprised at how many desserts they had! The chocolates are a bit pricey, but honestly, it's expected for how delicious they were. I tried both the milk & the dark chocolate versions of it, and omg I love the satisfying crunch in them plus the flavor! I'll most definitely be back to get more along with try the other pastries/desserts that they have!

Every time I go to Houston I have to stop by and get the Lebanese style knefeh! It is the absolute best! I have tried to find a traditional knefeh across the US on my travels and truly nobody makes it in an authentic way! Yes Suzie does! If you are searching for one... here is the place for you! I have sampled baklava and many other things at this shop and everything is always fresh and delicious! The ladies behind the counter speak Arabic which makes me feel at home! The ambiance is just a pastry shop they have the pastry cases and tables for you to enjoy if you decide to eat there I will keep on going back to this bakery every time I go to Houston!

If you enjoy baklava and Dubai chocolate, then this is your place! They also sugar free baklava using monk fruit instead. We waited a bit before someone came and help us, but there were a large variety of sweets that we enjoyed! Their desserts were sold by weight!

First time visiting, so impressed! Everything looked mouthwatering here! I will start with the baklava... they have so many different varieties and they all looked SO DELICIOUS! The cakes looked so amazing! They have this cheesecake, encased inside a chocolate cocoon ... just incredible! Next time I will take notes of the names of these desserts! The young man and young lady that helped us were very patient and friendly. Thank you Definitely will be back soon!

It's a cute little pastry shop. Small in size. Most people get to go. They have four tables with four chairs each. We decided to sit in. I got the pistachio cannoli. It was $5. When I tell you, this is the best cannoli I've had. And I've had them in Italy and New York. The cannoli wasn't too thick (which I prefer). The filling was delicious and the amount of pistachio was generous. The Lebanese Nescafé was delicious too. My dad had the Turkish coffee and loved it . I would come here again.

$23 for cheesecake and a cup of strawberries and chocolate the chocolate was decadent with pistachio knafeh and cookie butter drizzled over, a bit too indulgent for one sitting the strawberries were great just too expensive

100000/10 recommend!! We had an assortment of different baklava...we don't even know which ones we got just pointed to different ones and they were ALL so DELICIOUS I know next time I come in I will want to get ONE OF EVERYTHING!!! Take my whole check LOL

Best spot in Houston to get dubai chocolate bars for a very reasonable price! The place was packed on a Saturday line wrapped around multiple times inside. Got a couple of baklava pieces, dubai chocolate bars, dubai chocolate cheesecake, and Dubai chocolate covered strawberries. The bars were amazing! Definitely a must get!

My daughter found this place somehow and I decided to take her because I was intrigued by the "Dubai Chocolate" even though it's like 30 min. away from our house. It's located right at the corner of Richmond ave. & Dunvale (not the nicest area) but the shop was PACKED when we came on a Saturday afternoon. There was a LONG line that kept getting long as they quickly helped everyone. I must say that I didn't expect that but now that I have tasted some of our purchases, I can see what the hype is all about. These curly churro-looking things (don't know the name) are AMAZING! The Dubai chocolate was good but it does have a pistachio filling (good but some people don't like fillings). The cakes are also great.

Great place to get your Dubai chocolate fix!! They have all types of assorted Middle East desserts The service was great - as we were looking around the store, one of the staff members gave me and my daughter a free treat to try. Their Dubai chocolate bars (dark and milk) were rich in pistachios. The strawberry covered with Dubai chocolate were a hit The only thing I didn't like was their croissant covered with Dubai chocolate as the croissant was old and stale Other than that I would come back

Came for the Dubai chocolate kanafe but definitely had to try other tasty treats! Everything was delicious! One of the best kanafes I've had, you can really taste the pistachios in this bar! Staff was very friendly and service was quick! Will definitely be back to try more items

A wide variety of middle eastern pastries, with helpful associates willing to answer all your questions!

After seeing a reel on IG about this shop and their Dubai chocolate, we took a day trip to give it a go. My daughter is obsessed with Dubai chocolate. We ordered her a bar of it. Then I ordered the cup of Dubai chocolate and strawberries that was out of this world delicious with so many textures going on. The staff was friendly and helpful. We also left with some sugar free baklava.

Went to @suziespastry for the first time, and i was impressed, they have a large selection of cookies, cakes, Baklava and more, felt like a kid in a candy store. we went with the viral Dubai Chocolate, couple different slices of cake, assorted cookies, and Turkish Coffee. first off the Dubai Chocolate was just amazing, probably the best I have tried so far. next time that I enjoyed was the Ferrero rocher slice of cake, it was just perfect, fresh and moist. overall this spot has a massive selection of items, something for everyone, I highly recommend this place

Going to Suzie's Pastry Shoppe has become my Sunday ritual. I drove 25 minutes because I saw their AD saying that had knafeh, but what I didn't expect was their incredible variety of knafeh variations. For example, the cheesecakes with Knafeh?! INCREDIBLE. I've let so many people try it when I purchase it and everyone says the same thing - it is exquisite. The staff is very friendly every single time, I never have to wait long, and the shoppe is extremely clean. It is so worth the drive. I love Suzie's Pastry Shoppe!

It's cool, a long line but that's due to the recent traction this shop has received but overall a good pastry place with a good staff and excellent items to choose and eat from.

Wow! Wow! Wow This place was a dessert, heaven and chocolate kingdom. My coworkers and I were wanting something treat after having lunch and this was just the spot we needed. Even though being located in a questionable part of town, I do feel that the place felt very safe and clean. They had every dessert you could imagine, but we came for the Dubai chocolate covered strawberries and they did not disappoint whatsoever. The crunchiness, the sweetness, the freshness of the fruit was incredible. I also got a chocolate covered cheesecake and a Dubai chocolate bar. It was a little pricey, three desserts for about $35. The lady at the counter was very sweet and attentive, helpful with answering any questions despite the little bit of a language barrier. Would definitely come back, but with less of an appetite since the prices are pretty steep.

Wow! What a cute shop?! I loved going here and getting to try some Dubai chocolate pastries I'd never had before! They were soo good! The service was fast and it didn't take too long to have my treats! I'll definitely be coming back for more!

I stopped by here after eating breakfast at Cesar's Bakery. I got their Knafeh and cannoli, and it was really good! Price was reasonable and they had a wide variety of desserts. Staff was helpful in answering my questions. There's not much seating here, so prepare to grab your pastries to enjoy at home.

The shop's exterior doesn't look much but inside is modern looking. The pastries were displayed neatly in the display cases, and they were pleasing to my eyes. I was told by the staff that all the baklavas were sugar free. I bought 8 different baklavas, and half a pound of petit 4. The baklavas had crispy phyllo dough. I love hearing the crisp sound when I bit into the dough. Their baklavas had bigger nut fillings (largely chopped) instead of the usual fine ground nuts. The big nuts took a longer time to chew but I am ok with it. The petit 4 were soft, and especially the chocolate cookies were so chocolatey and good. The vanilla cookies were soft too and tasted not bad. However the fillings in between the cookies didn't have much taste. The store had slices of cake for sale too if anyone is interested. There are a few tables for customers to enjoy the sweets. There is plenty of parking available.

Found the viral Dubai Chocolate and Dubai Chocolate Strawberries here. The shop is small but has a huge variety of desserts! The lines-yes plural- are organized, the shop is clean and customer service is great. I got the Dubai chocolate and the Dubai chocolate strawberries. Extremely expensive. Other places focus on the chocolate, these guys focused a lot on pistachio, which was bummer. For me at least, there was a lot of pistachio, not enough chocolate and the crunchy stuff in the strawberry one. Given that their customer service was good and the place was clean, I will be visiting them again if I get a chance. Would not go out of my way for them.

Continuing my quest for the best Dubai chocolate. Next up Suzie's. When you look at their online menu it doesn't show Dubai chocolate as an option or at least I couldn't find it. But not only do they have Dubai chocolate, they have variations of it. Like several types of cheesecake versions or dark chocolate version for the same price as the milk chocolate original ($7). Or for double the price ($15) strawberry cup filled with chocolate as you watch - and they're generous with the chocolate (you won't even see the strawberries at the end). Most other places I've been charge $5 a bar but Suzie's are bigger and taste is superior (note they're refrigerated). If you want to impress your friends on social media, or get a gift, or just pig out, they have the big bars for $25 (also dark and milk chocolate options). The one thing I didn't really care for was the queueing system. There's no line. It's just a "who's next" deal. So depending on the type of customers there, you could be waiting a while. Staff was ok. Just business like. In any event, I'm glad I drove a little further to try this little gem. Other than the one token taco shop (hey this is Houston you gotta have at least one), the strip mall shops here have the Middle East vibe, adding to the experience.

Amazing variety of authentic Mediterranean pastries, delicious cakes and friendly service! You always feel welcomed and appreciated by coming in to the shop and part of the family! It is always Clean, well decorated!

Definitely get the Dubai chocolate but as cheesecake! We preferred this over the bar version, as it was texturally different, and as milk chocolate is used instead of dark, the bars were a bit too sweet for us. We look forward to coming back and trying all the different flavors of cookies and pastries!

Excellent selection of pastries and sweets! All fresh and delicious but very delicate. Best to eat there if you can! The shop is small but what seating they have is cute and comfy.

The best Dubai chocolate. Everything in the shoppe is delicious!!!!!! Go every week for a fix!!!

The new fruit pastries are not good. The chocolate is too thick & tastes cheap to be $15 each. The mousse is too thin and they need to add some cake or something inside.

Ohh man I had high hopes for the Dubai chocolate here after finding them on IG then reading Yelp reviews! Sadly I'm not impressed. I got the Dubai strawberry cup and the Dubai chocolate bar. Maybe I went on an off day but the strawberry cup was quite flavorless. Very little chocolate and too much bare knefeh & pistachio. I looked through pics here and the cup I got looked nothing like those where there was chocolate and filling throughout. Was not worth the $15 I paid. On the other hand the chocolate bar has TOO MUCH chocolate. Too later is extremely thick therefore taking over the flavor of the filling. Sad to say but also not worth the $25 paid. There's 2 other places nearby & I'll stick to those when I have a Dubai chocolate craving.

I went for the fruit pastry's. Not worth $15 each I'm sorry but that's just too much with how big they are. They're all smaller than your palm. She only sells them at 12 and it's not in an organized fashion. They were pretty good but just probably wouldn't get them again unless they were bigger and worth the money!

Tried the dubai chocolates ($6/ bar) and the strawberries dubai chocolate cups.. they were tasty, but they definitely didn't taste $15/ per cups wort . Especially because I had 4 medium sized strawberries and two small ones. Was honestly disappointed that the "hype" did not meet my expectations.

The food was amazing. I love their pastries and their desserts. However, the service that I experienced today was completely different from any other time I visit the atmosphere was normally calm, welcoming, and today, if you did not have a certain attire on which I am fully clothed with a dress down to my knees and arms, fully covered, and my hair is not wrapped, so I guess that's what sent me apart other than my skin tone. The packaging that I requested that I typically always receive was not the same today. The older ladies are nice. The males are wonderful, but the young lady has an attitude problem

This is my favorite pastry shoppe. They make the Dubai knafeh chocolate bars that are so delicious but not overly sweet. I ended up bringing a dozen bars to a friend's birthday party. Everyone loved them. We cut the bars in half. Birthday friend brought the leftovers home. She said she would have them for breakfast with her coffee. I had a separate group of work friends celebrating a birthday dinner at Hearsay. This time I brought the knafeh cake. The waiter ended up taking an extra piece because we were all raving about this cake! Extras were brought home by everyone. Yesterday, I served another cake for Thanksgiving. From the kids to the adults, it was devoured! BTW, if you have the Too Good To Go app, you can sample different pastries and cakes near their "expiration date." I did this and they lasted well over a week in my fridge. I would have submitted pictures but they're all gone!

Wonderful service deserved wonderful service and excellent experience and service fabulous people and great staff.

I found this bakery using the Too Good To Go app, an app that helps restaurants sell unsold food at the end of the day. It's a bright place, everyone was friendly and greeted me when I walked in. As I waited for my food, I saw several people coming and going so it must be a popular place. The unsold food is a surprise so I didn't know what I was going to get until I got home and looked through the bag. I got 2 cannollis: 1 pistachio and 1 chocolate. They're huge! According to their website, they sell for roughly $6 each. The other pastries, called Znoud el Set Kashta were huge, too. They sell for about $3 each. They're filled with a smooth, unsweetened cream that's wrapped in filo dough dipped in rose water syrup. It was my first time trying it and it was delicious! I would definitely buy those. They would be heavenly with some iced coffee. They sell cookies, cake slices and other sweet treats. They also have tons of baklava options and kanufe, a cheesy dessert from the Middle East that I would like to try the next time I'm in the area.

Susie's is a one stop shop for your pastries and desserts. An array of flavors and blends of Mediterranean pastries and desserts. If you're interested in trying the many flavors of baklava, this is the spot. Cakes, cookies and other desserts are quite tasty as well. Worth the visit.

This is the best place to get baklava and other Mediterranean sweets in Houston! You're greeted by trays and trays of pastries when you walk in. They sell by piece or by weight and it is very pricy so please know that in advance. The pistachio baklava that's bright green is delicious and surrounded by a super flaky thin wrapping. Remember to check in on Yelp for your free sample of baklava!

Came here for the Dubai chocolate. It was delicious. Left with a bunch of yummy treats. They were fabulous. This is a Definite stop next time I am in Houston. Small parking lot with lots of stores, so it gets a little crowded. This place is awesome!!!!
