Excellent quality bread. They were also nice enough to give us a sample of the fresh bread while we were waiting. I don't impress easily, but this was easily in my top 5 bread places so far.
I love this bakery. It has the best barbari and sangak bread.
Purchased some items with my family, and everything was delicious. When I first walked in I was overwhelmed by the options! I selected a few items from baklava, tiramisu, cookies and a slice of cake. I hope to try more items next time we visit, because there was so much to choose from. You can really tell this is a family run establishment and they enjoy what they do. The pricing was very reasonable, less than we were expecting and each item was distinct and very good. Highly recommend.
this persian bakery used to be very good but not anymore. stopped by today to buy few pastries however after trying they were stale and not fresh. sounds like it was sitting out for a while. not to mention i paid $18 for four and throw them away
This bakery offers fresh Sangak and Barbary bread seven days a week, which is a great convenience. However, it’s always a good idea to check the bread before paying, as sometimes it can be undercooked or slightly burnt in certain areas. They also sell a variety of pastries, including Baklava and traditional Iranian cookies. While the quality is decent, the prices are a bit on the higher side compared to other places. The staff, particularly Andria and Sa’eed, are always polite and friendly, which adds to the overall pleasant experience. Just be mindful of the bread quality when you visit!
