Review Al-sham Sweets & Pastries - Astoria

Andrea Munoz
Let me share with you the story of how I fell in love with this place. I live in the neighborhood and was curious about baklava and this spot for a while, one day I just went in and ordered what stood out to me. After eating everything I had ordered I was EXTREMELY satisfied, so here is what made me come back to try more; small place big taste, freshly homemade, the pastries have just the right amount of sweetness, prices are reasonable and good attention to costumer. These are different to what I am used to and I love them!

Personally, I always love getting desserts from here. But the thing that sealed the deal was when I brought a pre made sampler to my parents and they absolutely loved it. My mom was born and raised in Syria and she approved. The prices are a tad bit high but I definitely think it’s worth it. I also love the date Mamoul, I have to get half a pound on every visit!

Best! Fresh! And perfect pricing halal bakery! Great place to pick up and enjoy it for desert. Remember it is CASH ONLY place! They do have ATM inside.

I love flaky pastries and came across this shop so I thought I’d give it a try. I enjoyed the baklava very much. They were flaky, crispy, and sweet. It’s not overwhelmingly sweet. Even the bottom of the baklava were crispy!

Great bakery for authentic desserts. Baklava was amazing and easily the best around New York. The staff are always extremely friendly and will occasionally throw in a free cookie or two

The baklava and other sweets here are unbelievably delicious. Completely worth a visit from another borough. Also very friendly service.

Was in a rush but had ridiculous cravings for dessert. Made a quick stop and got a piece of Warbat. Best decision ever!!! All their dessert is amazing, store is so nice & clean, and most of all the guys behind the counter are super welcoming. If you want something fresh and delicious, this is your spot!

My husband is from Israel and he says it’s all authentic middle eastern desserts that are of great quality. I tried everything for the first time and it’s all good yummy sweets

I know there is inflation and stuff but this place has become over priced for me now. $20 for this little amount feels like a bit too much. I have been there a lot and the $20 plate always felt like a fair price until now. Also didn’t weigh the plate like the usual young guy does. Also, I think customer service is always good here.

Really incredible, like a temple of delicious Baklava. Huge variety too. Worth coming to Astoria just for this!
