The knafe naa'meh with nabulsi cheese was little dry , crusty, dry cheese, maybe older and fell apart with the fork, but it was a slow rainy day so that might be why.

Basbousa and knafeh
Khalid F.

I'm a big fan of basbousa/harissa, so I was disappointed to discover that my old haunt Albasha Sweets went downhill. I've tried other Middle Eastern dessert places in this area, but can' t say I was blown away by any one place. I do feel that every time I go to Prince Sweets the desserts are pretty good, so I decided to do a fun little experiment. I looked at all the dessert places in the area and found one I had never been to -- Nablus Sweets. I went there and got a couple pieces of basbousa (and my wife got some knafeh). I then went to Prince Sweets and got one piece each of three different types of basbousa: plain, coconut, and nut-topped. After getting home I made myself a cup of herbal tea and had a basbousa showdown. First I tried Nablus' basbousa. It was nice and moist. It had a nice texture, but it crumbled apart pretty easily. It was sweet enough without being cloyingly so. In short, it was very good. My wife liked it, too. I then tried a bit of each of Prince's basbousa. I noticed that Prince's version is harder and holds together better, but that it's also sweeter since it's drenched with more simple syrup. Having a variety was nice, but it's hard to say definitely whether Nablus or Prince is better. Both are very good. In fact, I'd say these are the top two Middle Eastern dessert places in this area as of right now. If you want sweeter, then go with Prince. They have a bigger variety of desserts there, too. But if you want something traditional, sophisticated, and subtly sweet, then go with Nablus. Both offer nice desserts. The parking is tight at Nablus, but the interior feels more welcoming. Service seems friendlier at Nablus, too. Parking isn't great at Prince, either. If price is a concern, Prince is cheaper (average $2/piece vs Nablus' average $3.50/piece).

The small Baklava Assorted Mix Tray!
Jessica N.

I ordered delivery from here on Grubhub. Almost everything I ate was delicious. All the pics will have my specific review, but pretty much all the baklava was at least a 4/5, if not perfect. Super flaky crust, the syrup was perfectly sweet and thick, and overall so freaking fresh. The baklava assortment is cut small so it is easy to pace yourself or share at a party. The warbat was the only item I didn't love. Never had it before though, but I can at least attest to the fresh ingredients. The knafeh roll was out of this world tasty though. All in all, l highly highly recommend ordering from this awesome bakery!

Knafeh Na'ma
raees e.

I picked up three trays of knafeh from here this morning. I have had knafeh in Jerusalem, Nablus, and Trader Joe's. While the knafeh was fresh, it lacked sweetness..and was a bit dry Frankly, after fasting all day I could only have two bites. Trader Joe's knafeh is better. It may have something to do with the new ownership..

I am sorry but this place do not deserve more than 1 star. The person working there does not know customer service at all. The sweets are even worse! We tasted some and left right away.

Clean and fresh!

If you would like fresh hot konafa, stop by here! The serving size is really large and the taste is excellent.

Yumminess!!!
Amanda S.

Serving size is huge! I got knaffe and another sweet started with an M or something. It was white and square. Knaffe wasn't my favorite there but the other one was good. Took home the knaffe rolls and they were good. They seem to use different cheeses than the knaffe im used to. They were really friendly here and the place is pretty big. They have ice cream and other sweets.

Angel hair like strands
Juan G.

This is a must go to if you consider yourself a foodie or just a person with good taste. The knafeh is warm and gooey sweet with the crunchy pistachio pieces at the top. This dessert is a must try at least once in your life. The service is impeccable and you are always treated with respect. Do your self a favor and try both types of knafeh. One is like angel hair strands of sweet golden deliciousness, the other one which is my favorite has a delicate orange crust atop a warm cheesy base. Once both of these are topped with a pistachio syrup they will take your tastebuds to another dimension. They have a sugar free version of it now as well so no excuses as to why you have been missing this wonderful dessert in your own city!

#knafeh and other delicacies. I'll try it and is really good recommended!!!
William Q.

I live #knafeh and I am always in the hunt for a good one. I stopped by this place and it's different to the one I am used to from Jafeer Sweets, but different doesn't mean is bad just differently good.

This place is famous for Kinafa, a Middle-Eastern dessert that is a kind of cheese topped with some kind of shredded wheat and then baked to perfection. It's orange on top and white on the bottom, with green sprinkles of pistachios on top. I don't even like Kinafa, unless it's from here, fresh out of the oven and sprinkled with pistachios. Try it, you'll be hooked too.

Papa Chocolate - Chocolate Chip Cookie

There are certain areas of Chicago and Chicagoland that I don't often go to. Worth, IL is one of…read morethem. I honestly don't think there are too many places of note in Worth, IL. However, Papa Chocolate is definitely one of them. It's a super unique sweets and dessert shop that has items I haven't seen anywhere else. First, the sweets and drinks were amazing. When I was there I tried the chocolate chip cookie (a warm skillet cookie with ice cream), lokma (think donut holes with filling), mix berries mojito (non alcoholic), triple waffle and sushi crepe (a Nutella crepe cut up like pieces of sushi. I enjoyed everything, but the lokma was my favorite. I've never seen this before. They are donut holes that they fill with pistachio cream, Nutella, Biscoff cream or white chocolate. It's so cool that fry them and fill them when you order it. I also liked the mix berries mojito very much. It's a cool and refreshing drink that's perfect for the summer. Second, the service is excellent. The staff is very nice and passionate about the desserts they make. And everything that I had was made to order and was super fresh. Third, the ambiance is that of a small restaurant. There are maybe six or seven large table in the small location. I stayed and ate a good portion of food at the restaurant, and it's certainly large enough if you want to gather with friends. However, I did notice that most people took their orders to go. I sum, this is a must visit sweets and dessert shop. It's worth the drive from Chicago.

Good service Nice inside…read moreGreat sweets Very tasty Inside can be small I like the waffles from here
