Ah-ma-zing!! First impressions, super clean and beautiful bakery. They had all kinds of pastries--cookies, cakes, baklava, Lebanese Kanefah, savory pastries--they have everything! The kind woman assisting me was so patient as I asked a million questions about all the goodies they offer. I picked a bunch of different items and they did not disappoint. read more

Pastries so good, the only reason I didn't give them 5 star due to lack of sugar free sweets.

The best deserts in town. Thank you Sarkis pastry for always serving my family and I fresh pastry's and baked goods for over 25 years with us. read more

Parking was easy, cookies were good and prices were affordable. Passed by Sarkis on my way home and decided to try it. Passed by around 7 pm and parking was easy. It was my first time and I told the staff. I wished they walked me through a few of their items or were willing to answer questions. None of the items were labeled in the display cases so I had no idea what they were. I just pointed to some cookies in the display case and paid for them. Some cookies had pistachios in them. They were good and I may come back if I crave them. read more

We had a grand opening at a nearby location and decided to order from Sarkis Pastry. Everyone loved all of the different pastries and cookies. I think the real winner was the feta and potato turnover pastries. They were warm with flaky dough. Absolutely delicious. We had trays of cookies, baklava and Karabeej with Pistachio & Natiff Marshmallow to dip in. All of our tenants seemed to really love all of the pastries and cookies. We served these with fresh fruit and warm coffee. Thank you Sarkis Pastry for making out event turn out so well. read more

Friendly staff, excellent spinach boreg, fresh baklava, and the best knefeh sandwich! Always a pleasant time at Sarkis - they have parking and other locations if this one isn't the most convenient for you. While mostly a takeaway establishment, they also have some tables and chairs inside and are hospitable if you want to stay and enjoy. read more

Their display looked inviting. I purchased awameh sweets. It was not that fresh, and it was very disappointing. Parking is horrible. Definitely not visiting this location again. read more

I ordered takeout for me and friends and everyone loved it! Tasted great the next day as well. Def recommend

A friend and I stopped by for dinner and were beyond impressed by the flavor and quality of our meal! We ordered the jarko (potatoes and meat), mutabal (eggplant dip), and the beet salad. Everything was incredible. The potatoes were perfectly roasted and seasoned, and the meat was tender. We don't even like eggplant and the mutabal was so good I wanted to bring a jar of it home. The beet salad was loaded with beets and flavored nicely with acid. The folks working were kind as well. Overall an absolutely amazing meal and we will be back next time we're in town!! read more

Always worth the drive when we come to visit family in California. We live in Arizona and this place has yet to let us down. Amazing treats and amazing sahlab!! read more

Stopped by this pastry spot and wow the baklava is next level The shop is super clean and bright, such a welcoming vibe. The sweetest lady helped us out, super patient while I asked a million questions She even let us try some samples before ordering! Left with a tray of assorted baklava + a few extra treats... everything was insanely good. 100% coming back for more #BaklavaHeaven #PastryGoals read more

The best Halawet el Jibn! Whenever I'm in Glendale, I make sure to go to Sarkis Pastry. If you haven't been there, it's definitely worth trying. read more

This bakery is a little hidden gem! I had written a 5-star review last year and today I happened to be in the area again, so I figured I would revisit Sarkis Pastry. They served me an excellent latte with a touch of cinnamon paired with the most delicious chocolate pastry. I had some work to do on my laptop and the wireless was fast and reliable. Just nice, kind people in an immaculately clean and comfortable environment. I always prefer exploring small family-owned businesses over big chains. It can be a little hit and miss, but occasionally you stumble upon an exceptional business. Sarkis Pastry is definitely a top choice if you're looking for tasty pastries or just a little spot to sip a nice coffee, get some work done, and enjoy a sweet treat! read more

Best knafeh in town. I bought a try for a party recently and people devoured it. Multiple people at the party wanted to know where I bought it from. Sarkis has many other great desserts and sweets but the knafeh is absolutely delicious. read more

Giving this place a second chance, but not again. 30 bucks for some gata and a pound of cookies. Really? Added to that they were not fresh. Way too many choices to make in this area. Fix your quality problems. read more

Huge selection of delicious pastries. All good tasting and fresh. Highly recommend.

Sarkis is where I go if I'm looking for quality pastry or looking for a great dessert contribution for a potluck. I've been a fan for years, and I think their baklava and cookies were my first introduction to their greatness. I soon started enjoying their savory items too (like their za'atar-covered breakfast items), and whenever I'm in Glendale or nearby, I'm sorely tempted to stop by and pick up a snack. I never had an issue with parking (there's a lot on site), and the service is consistently efficient and friendly. I usually pick up my items to take away, but there is seating inside if you want to eat on site. read more

We were in Glendale for a wedding and so didn't have a ton of time to explore (family wedding so there were lots of family obligations), but I really wanted to do a bakery crawl in Glendale Sunday morning before we headed to West LA and then north up the coast. Sarkis was one of our stops, and we tried three different pastries (two versions of baklava and a savory potato pastry). They were all okay, but it wasn't my favorite bakery of the crawl. Probably just because I'm more of a savory/salty girl! Still, if you want a large variety of pastries, Sarkis was one of the biggest and best stocked bakeries we visited on our crawl - lots of choices! read more

I was very disappointed by this bakery. I had read high reviews about this bakery having the best baklava in Glendale. I love baklava and was extremely excited to taste it. The service was fast and the workers were attentive. It is a small shop with seating if you would like to enjoy any of the goods you grab in store. Otherwise, their packaging is also cute. Unfortunately, the baklava here was just barely adequate. It uses a sugar-based syrup rather than honey, which gave it a sugary flavor rather than featuring the warmth and depth of honey syrup. The syrup also penetrated through the entirety of the phyllo dough. I almost walked out without purchasing anything because they didn't look fresh enough to purchase and properly review but I figured that this is an accurate reflection of their product. Definitely come by for other baked goods, but if you are picky about your baklava, or are just looking for good baklava in general, do not get your hopes up. If you are just looking for baklava in general, this will do the job. read more

Good middle eastern dessert selection. The ka3ak for the knefah is especially delicious.

Another great bakery in Glendale!! Once you come in, there's a ton of pastries and cookies. What's good: - Pistachio Cake: Light, nutty pistachio flavor, creamy. - Chocolate ganache cake: tasty chocolate cake with ganache on top. - Pistachio cookie: It's hard to find pistachio pastries that have a lot of pistachio flavor in it. Wonderful. Everyone wore a mask, not chaotic inside. Has a parking lot. The packaging is quite nice too. What stood out from here and other local bakeries was the exceptional kind service. She gave us free extra cookies to "fill the box"! Awww! Bless her. read more

Not sure what went wrong. We have some baklava and thought we buy some to take it abroad. The pastries have a WEIRD taste, like margarine was used or it was not fresh. Waste of $60, go somewhere else read more

I am positive that these reviews are false and come from relatives and friends or are paid. Either that ir they come from people that are unfamiliar with Arabic sweets. I have really never tasted worst sweets, and I have ordered from many places. The baklava has a tiny amount of nuts, not just a little - but like less than 1/4 of the needed amount and are dry and so not taste fresh at all. The syrup has a strange taste. What they call "macaroons" are dry and almost syrup-less. In addition, the website states that they ship within 24 hours. I placed the order on Tuesday night and it was shipped on Friday and arrived on Saturday. I paid extra for one day shipping. I am going out of town on Monday and if the order didn't arrive today, it would have been a waste. The mamoul is not bad, but I've tasted much better . I paid over a hundred dollars for this order and I feel that it was a waste. I don't know if I am allowed to recommend places - but places on the East Coast especially in Michigan are by far much better. I just did not have time and did t want to pay $50 for two-day shipping- big mistake read more

Step outside of your comfort zone try a different cuisine. I was pleasantly surprised when I stumbled into the bakery. Everything you get is incredible. Everything is packed with flavor. The wraps they sell are incredible 10 out of 10 highly recommend. read more

Wonderful baklava! They are a "must stop by" whenever I'm in Glendale. They have some of the best baklava I've ever tasted! They make their own phyllo dough with butter instead of buying commercially made phyllo dough. You can taste the difference. You can taste the butter and the crispy, fresh texture. They have cashew, walnut, almond baklavas and many more. They also ship their pastries too. Highly recommended! read more

Wonderful bakery - staff super helpful - I was ordering barazek cookies as a thank you for my doctor who's from Syria and his office, everyone loved them! When picking up, I couldn't believe the variety of goodies; brought home thyme pizzas, cheese turnovers and croissants; everything was delicious! Great blend of sweet and savory available. Highly recommend. read more

Stale and Nasty. Only the Namoria was good but the rest is either too sweet when you add the syrup or no flavor without it. None of the puff pastry is crunchy , it was not fresh. read more

Best Ashasaria, I'm probably spelling that wrong. But it's a bread pudding toped with pistachio and has a white cream filling.

At Sarkis Bakery, the treasured recipes are passed down many generations resulting in the the baklava of your dreams! You walnut regret getting the medium or large trays of either just fillo dough baklava or assorted baklava. If you are not a fan of crispy layers, Sarkis also has the Ballourieh Baklava. This one is made with shredded kataifi and filled with crushed pistachios. With the drizzle of rose water and shredded rather than flaky layers, the Ballourieh Baklava has a chewy, paste-like texture. Top 3 + Finger Baklava (cashew filing; mildly sweet & lightly crispy) + Diamond Baklava (walnut filling; on the sweeter side & super crispy) + Bird's Nest Baklava (walnut filling; moderately sweet & delicately crispy) Overall, Sarkis Pastry is a must visit for baklava when in Glendale. read more

I was here for the first time on saturday, when I walked in greeted the old lady who was helping another customer, and told that was my first time at their bakery and want to browse what they have. She appeared to be in a bad mood and seemed that she was in a hurry. If you cant do multiple jobs hire more employees. the baklava with ashta (i dont know the exact name of the dessert) that i purchased was not fresh! I am very disappointed! read more

Food and service are amazing. They are kind and greet you and very helpful. Clean inside and fresh all the time. Love their pastries.
