Zalabya

Tried their Strawberry Cup and the classic Zalabya, both of which showcase the restaurant’s dedication to quality and authenticity. The Strawberry Cup is a refreshing and visually appealing treat. Served in a delicate cup, it features perfectly ripe strawberries complemented by a creamy base. The texture is smooth and velvety, and the sweetness of the strawberries is balanced by the richness of the cream. On the other hand, the Zalabya is an absolute must-try. Fried to golden perfection, these little dough balls are light, airy, and crispy on the outside, with a soft and fluffy interior. The sweetness is just right—not too overpowering, allowing the delicate dough flavor to shine through. The service is friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere perfect for enjoying these delicious treats. Highly recommended for anyone with a sweet tooth or a love for Middle Eastern sweets!

A delicious twist on a traditional Egyptian dessert known as “Lou’mat il Audi”! Freshly made deep-fried dough of crispy crunchy puffs! These are then smothered with WARM delicious liquid milk chocolate (half) & warm sweet liquid pistachio heaven (other half). Topped with crispy crunchy Kunafa crumbles & fresh strawberries on top!! Omgoodness to say this just melts in your mouth with the perfect amount of crispy crunch the moment you sink your teeth into these bite size warm goodies!! It’s a dessert like you’ve never ever known before! A must try!! My friend said they’re dangerously addictive and I completely agree!! ..and SO 💯worth it!! This will be very difficult to stay away from once you taste these!!

Amazing zalabya. I dont have a photo of my zalabya as i pounced on them as soon as my order arrived. Perfect crispy outer layer and soft chocolate filled inside feels and tastes really really good. I will be having them many times again.

Came here for the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup. Absolutely fantastic! Great size and value for what it cost. Abundance of fresh juicy strawberries. The filling was delicious and perfect. Will definitely return for this treat and highly recommend. Lovely staff and caring owner working the front as well. With the cold weather the chocolate will harden when you go outside so recommend to eat it inside the restaurant for the prime melty chocolate experience.

Zalabya dessert is simply amazing! The taste is out of this world — perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. Every bite melts in your mouth! The quality is always top-notch, and you can tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The service is excellent too — fast, friendly, and always welcoming. I also love that they offer great deals, which makes enjoying their desserts even sweeter. I honestly love everything about it. Don’t miss out on trying it — it’s a must-have treat you’ll keep coming back for!✨😍

I have lost count of how many times we've been here!! Mainly because my kids love the place .... our favorites are Nutella, white chocolate with topping of Biscoff and Kinder Buenos 😋 And yes, we'll probably be back in another 2 months. The only thing I noticed is that even though we went to the restaurant in the initial opening hours.... the table and chairs and some chocolate stuck on it from the previous day!! Really didn't look they cleaned up well before opening 😕

I have been to Zalabya many times and you can never go wrong with their fried dough balls! So many different flavors and toppings to choose from, and my favorite are the Nutella and the Lotus Biscoff ones. They've got a lot more on the menu including crepes, mini donuts, milkshakes, hot shakes, the viral Dubai Chocolate based desserts, Kunafa cups, and my new personal favorite, the refreshing Mojitos. Service is also prompt and they prepare your order fresh and live right in front of you.

I came here for the first time and tried the viral dubai strawberry cup with icecream, it was AMAZING. Ive tried almost all the strawberry cups and this one by far was my favourite. Its lighter than most & the staff was so generous with the amount you get. Everything was good about this cup. Not one complaint. It was alittle messy but worth it! The staff was very nice & fast. They had the order in and ready to go in less than 10 mins & there was other people in the store. 10/10 definitely recommend. We came from a different city and we will definitely be back!!

Zalabiya comes from an Egyptian dessert and Zalabiya in Ridgeway Plaza serves great variety of dessert options with different flavors. The friendly staff help you choose the best options from their excellent menu. We ordered "Lotus Biscoff Mini Donuts", "Zalabya (Pistachio Cream, Nutella, Kinder, Belgian Dark Chocolate)", "Nutella Strawberry Banana Crêpe", "Dubai Chocolate Bar", "Ferrero Rocher Cup", "Mixed Berry Mojito", "Strawberry Mojito" and "S'mores Hot Chocolate. I love pistachio cream and Belgian dark chocolate and really enjoyed them. Ferrero Rocher is another flavour that I really like and the cup was a whole meal itself. Lol Crêpe was a great combination of fruits and chocolate sauce. Another fun fact is they make everything in front of you and you can enjoy watching your dessert getting prepared.

These are so soft and sweet. They have many flavours and options available. They also have sweet drinks. This is more of a takeout place as there aren't many seats inside. Service is quick

Wow! This dessert is indeed the bomb! They make the zalabya fresh as you order them. It's like a timbit but better. We ordered the large size and you choose 3 kinds of flavour and 2 toppings. They really go crazy with the toppings and the "sauce". I picked bueno, white Belgian chocolate and biscoff. It was soooo good!! Even though it's made to order, they make it pretty fast. The line when I came in was crazy but I didn't wait too long to get my order. The place is small and probably have 3 tables to sit in but I wouldn't recommend that because the place can get pretty crowded. It could also be that we came in the worst time being it's a Saturday night.

Love these little donut like bites. Crisp exterior with a soft centre, and sprinkled with my favourite cinnamon.

New business Alert Yelpers ! It's a dessert point. This place is located at Eglington and Ridgeway . Getting to this place is easy on the GPS. There are a few parking spots outside the outlet. The place was deserted as we walked in. We ordered for zalabya with different toppings. They made the zalabya after we ordered so they were served warm. The toppings very many ti choose from . The taste of the zalabya however has nothing new to offer . The staff was very patient and treated the customers very well. I personally think that if you are dessert shop owner you need to have some innovations with what you make. I thought that was lacking at this place. The inside of the outlet was clean and well maintained. To me this place is a ONE TIME TRY only.

Very very tasty. I highly recommend it. A very authentic tasty Zalabya, the place has many creative add ons that just add more to the flavour. Very delicious and worth it. The place is very fast passed, the service is pretty prompt. The seating arrangement is quite tight and would probably prefer a bigger space but the taste is very well with it

Great desert spot! They add generous amount of toppings! We love all their flavours. They have vegan options too. It can get really busy during weekends. It's a small and cozy spot.
