Zahtar
Alen D.

Great spot! I come here practically every morning have to get their zahtar bread. The crew here is really nice and professional their menu has tons of options. I really like coming here hanging out it's nice and cozy definitely love it here 10/10

I can say that if I walk into a breakfast café/restaurant and there's obviously some locals/regulars chatting it up with the owner and hanging out, then it's going to be a good dining experience. Going into Sipan Bakery was just that. A group of locals enjoying their breakfast/brunch, and a local chatting up the owner as well as asking for mechanic recommendations. You can tell it's a community staple. The owner was very friendly to us too and made sure that everything was to our liking. You can see the pizza oven from over the counter and that everything is made/baked in house. We got the: 1) Glendale Mashrooha Sandwich: -This is a cheese mashrooha with soujouk meat, scrambled eggs, topped with tomatoes, fresh mint leaves, and olives. -I believe a mashrooha sandwich is an open flat bread sandwich based on what I've seen during a Google search. If not a lot of results are showing up and the bakery itself is a result, you know that it's a unique menu offering. -Soujouk meat is ground meat seasoned with dry spices. -Nice hearty breakfast sandwich and you don't feel as guilty eating it with the "veggies" included on top. 2) Ajarski Kchachapouri - 2 eggs: -This pastry resembles the eye of Sauron with 2 sunny side up eggs in the middle with cheese. -Simple and delicious pastry, you can't go wrong with this. -Once again nicely seasoned, not too oily, gooey cheese and yummy runny eggs. -First time having one of these and I feel like it's going to be one of those dishes I'd immediately order again if I see it on a menu. 3) Lahmajune: -This is an Armenian pizza made with flatbread and a flavorful ground beef and tomato topping mix. -Nicely crispy flat bread and I love tomato mixed with meat. It's very flavorful without being too salty or overbearing. -Delicious type of pizza that I've never had until now. Would stop by again if I'm in the area.

Found Sipan on Yelp and came here to try the lahmahjun. I was greeted nicely and ordered a couple things to go, I asked for one of the lahmahjun to be warmed and the guy asked if I wanted lemon - I was so confused and told him I've only had it plain. In all my years eating lahmahjun I've only had it as it comes and was never once served lemon with it or even asked if I wanted lemon. I didn't know it was a thing. He recommended that I try it and he was right - holy cow it was a different experience. I first tried it without and it was really good, but the lemon elevated the spices, it was SO good. They are on the smaller size but the topping was generous and flavorful, and the crust was perfect. Appreciate the warm hospitality, gift of knowledge, and delicious treat - will definitely come back! Private parking lot that is a bit narrow but doable.

I am making this review as I stuff my face... I literally took one bite and immediately just knew I needed to let everyone know how good this spot is. My family and I are not from here and I have been looking for a good middle eastern bakery. When I looked on yelp, I was overwhelmed with all the options. We decided to just go with whoever was closest. We ordered a few cheese manakeesh and some lahmajun or lahmab3jeen....Everything was made fresh to order and sooooo tasty. The lahma one was so perfectly spiced and crispy, my favorite. I will definitely be back 10/10

The absolute best ajarski I've had. So fresh and quality ingredients. Highly recommend for breakfast

Upon entry, we were greeted by a very warm and welcoming gentleman. He asked us a few questions and then offered suggestions. This was my first time at an Armenian bakery, so I greatly appreciated it. His suggestions were helpful and I felt no pressure to order one way or another. Everything was delicious. The bread was soft and warm and ever so slightly toasted on the underside of the beorek. The fresh veggies and herbs in the glendale special mashrooha were a refreshing touch and added a crispness to the texture. Very tasty. Definitely try this place, even if youre not familiar with the food. They will help you out and make you feel welcome.

I was in the mood for middle eastern food. Originally, in search of the typical salad, lule kabob, shawarma, something of that nature. I rely on highly positive reviews and came across Sipan Bakery goodness, they did not disappoint! I was so happy to have found this place as this will be my new go to spot! Arrived on a Thursday afternoon and they were quite busy with what seemed to be a group of ladies enjoying themselves. Nonetheless, the owner was sweet and quick with our order. Got the Chicken Shawarma pizza, Lamahjoon and Kibbee (Kofta). The pizza was bomb flavorful and delicious, lamahjoon typical and Kibbee delightful! I thought the Kibbee would be a side of Kofta like the meatball but I was a bit surprised at what I received but it was sooooo good! IG Palate_Journey DOG FRIENDLY - Outdoor seating

Ajarski
Naira S.

Sipan Bakery in Glendale has quickly become my new favorite spot for ajarski! As a big lover of this dish, I was thrilled to find that they offer three sizes--perfect for any appetite. I always go for the small with one egg, but they also have options with sujukh and basturma, which I'll definitely try next time. Another must-try is their zatar with veggies--it's soooo delicious! The flavors are amazing, and I can't wait to go back again soon. Highly recommend! And the owner was so nice!

Parking lot
Ko M.

FIRST TIME HERE: FAMILY RUN VEGETARIAN SPOT FAST FRIENDLY SERVICE CLEAN TASTY I don't have a control group to measure against, but this was an AWESOME EGG PIZZA THING. (Ajarski) see below. But first - THE BREAKDOWN: PARKING There's a very small lot in front that is relatively easy to get to heading East on Glenoaks. There's street parking around the corner (either side) as well. BATHROOM Didn't ask. SERVICE I arrived a little late (1pm) for lunch. Still plenty of people sitting and others coming in for pick up orders. Yet service was fast and SUPER FRIENDLY. First time: so I didn't know what I wanted and was slow. The young guy helping me didn't rush me and let me know what was available. FOOD late: some of the popular borek options were out of stock at 1pm. Still there were other vegetarian options available. Feta borek: Nice salty spicy flakey. A few minutes in the oven for a heat up. Spinach and cheese borek: Also nicely seasoned. And the spinach and cheese went from END TO END. you may have had borek that had "a little" stuffing inside at some other places. Here: This spinach was in the first bite all the way to the last bite! EGG PIZZA THING. Akarski Maybe you've seen it and wanted to try it. THIS IS THE PLACE. I had no idea what to expect (i'm from New York pizza). I didn't even know HOW TO EVEN EAT THE THING. I mean-it's got an egg on it. Wtf. Fortunately, I saw another customer working a 2-egg version. WAS HE WRONG? am I wrong too? See photos - Let me know. I kinda want garlic and onions on this thing, but it was awesome. DOUGH WAS RIGHT COOKING WAS RIGHT EGG WAS RIGHT who cares if I was wrong eating it. Yum. But seriously - am I eating this the right way?? How do you eat it? (Oh yeah, they offered tapatio with it, but I went without, adding only black pepper)

Spinach cheese beorek.
Kelly L.

Wonderful place. Delicious food. Kindest people. The service is incredibly kind, helpful and friendly. One of the things I noticed while there is how they know so many of their customers by name, that told me a lot of good about this place right from the start. The food was fantastic we had the breakfast pizza, spinach and cheese beorek and the khachapuri with bacon. I had to stop myself from over ordering, I love beorek and wanted to try them all. We will be back to do just that!

Yummmmm smell the fresh jalapeños
Kathryn K.

Food was amazing & service was very warm and welcoming. The second you walk in, you can SMELL the quality of the bread and ingredients they use. I was pleasantly surprised to find out they not only make Mediterranean goodies like lahmajune, maneish, shawarma, and ajarski, but they also offer very tasty pizzas, paninis, flatbreads, and sandwiches. My son loved their pizza and I was especially fond of their chicken shawarma. Can't wait to come back and try the rest of their menu!

Reasonable prices for the baked goods.
Cindy S.

Sipan Bakery is a Armenian/Middle-Eastern- Halal bakery- that specializes is savory breads (boreks)/flatbreads (lahmajoon). I didn't see any sweets or cakes here. Boreks remind me of Middle-Eastern version empanadas filled with savory fillings such as potatoes, cheese, mushrooms, spinach and green olives, meat. Most of their boreks are vegan friendly. The lahmajoon are like personal pizzas except they are on the thin side made with minced meat/veggies, and spices. They also have wraps, plates, paninis, mantee dumplings, fusion-pizzas, and what I call: egg boats known as " Ajarski or Khachapori"... and TACOS! The owner is super friendly and welcoming. I ordered a few things and thought everything was great. I shall return to sample more delicious items on the menu.

Ajaraki (tomatoes, jalapeños, 2 eggs)
Hamlet O.

Always good to eat at Sipan bakery. Lamajus is a must, ajaraski is a must for breakfast,(they make the edges and bottom crispy and medium well on the eggs with your choice of toppings), and must try the chicken shawarma pizza must must.

My new fave!

Still halal under new owner ship?

Years ago they mentioned it was halal. It could be default halal, since no pork is served. Not sure if it's specifically zabihah.

Been asked a lot since the sign was removed . Still serving halal meats?

Yes

This was my first time at Karina's Cake House, and definitely won't be the last…read more Walked in around 7pm, on the 6th of this month and got a nice welcome from Sona and Gohar. Both ladies were very nice, sweet, (just like the bakery), and eager to help me. There was a line, but not too long. They were about to close in an hour and both ladies cleared that line so fast. Great job!! Prices were also very affordable according to whatever they had in their displays. I had a major sweet tooth, and their delectable, decadent, aroma of their pastries was very hard to resist. They also have hot and cold beverages of every kind and a cute sitting area inside the bakery. I bought us some Gata, (an Armenian pastry). They had 2 different kinds. One with nuts in them, and one without. I got the one that had no nuts and was semisweet. I also got box of variety of sweets, that included: 2 Chocolate Eclairs, 3 Cream Puffs, & 2 Strawberry Shortcake topped with pieces of almonds. Let's not forget their beautiful, yummy cupcakes. I got 6 (variety pack). They can customize your cakes to your liking for any one of your special occasions. The place was very chic, classy and elegant. Bakery was very clean, with some Armenian/Russian music playing overhead. They can even make beautiful baskets for you to give away to someone you love, on their special occasions. They have cakes, cupcakes, chocolates, candy, variety of cookies, full cases of pastries, a platter of nuts, included various nuts. Parking, also street and metered parking. The only downside was that I wish they had an outdoor/patio seating. Next time I am in Glendale, I will definitely visit this lovely, beautiful bakery. Thank you all very much!

The red velvet was dry. Tasted nothing like red velvet. And I think they put something in it... The tiramisu was dry as well. After getting past the ridiculous amount of bitter cocoa powder thats when the dry cake kicks in. To be honest I haven't tried the last one cause Im thinking it'll be the same.

I ended up grabbing some nazook, medium lahmajun, and also decided to give the beef khachapuri kabob a try as I haven't seen that offered at other spots I've tried. Service was quick and on point and the lahmajun did take about 10-15 minutes as they make them fresh. They have a pretty expansive patio where you can enjoy your goodies and hang out. Parking can be a bit of a challenge as it is mostly street parking, but I managed to snag a spot a few blocks away. As for the food, the nazook is amazing and better than a few other bakeries I've tried in Glendale. The lahmajun was also amazing and very flavorful with a good amount of meat. And lastly, the beef khachapuri kabob was amazing! It had that nice smoky charcoal flavor in the meat and worked well with the surrounding pastry. Definitely will be back again and bringing friends to this Glendale gem!
