If you're looking for something different in Key West, The Baklava is a fantastic little spot serving authentic Turkish food and desserts. It's a hidden gem that's definitely worth a visit. The highlight for me was the world-famous Turkish ice cream. If you've never tried it before, you're in for a treat. It's incredibly thick, rich, and creamy, with a unique stretchy texture that almost feels like a cheese pull when you separate it. It was easily one of the creamiest and most delicious ice creams I've ever had. Of course, you can't leave without trying the baklava. It was fresh, flaky, perfectly sweet, and absolutely delicious. They also offer a wide variety of authentic Turkish desserts, so there's plenty to choose from. Another fun surprise was that they serve the popular Dubai chocolate-covered strawberries, loaded with pistachio and other delicious toppings. Everything we tried was excellent. Easy fast service. Whether you're stopping in for dessert or just want to experience authentic Turkish flavors, The Baklava is a unique and memorable place to visit in Key West. Highly recommended for anyone with a sweet tooth or looking to try something new. read more

I'm a HUGE fan of baklava, so I was genuinely excited to try this place while in Key West. Unfortunately, this was some of the worst baklava I've ever had. The pieces we tried had a really strange chemical taste that reminded us of cleaning products, or as if the ingredients were old or expired. We tried several different pieces hoping it was just one flavor, but they all tasted off to us. We couldn't even finish them. The service made the experience even worse. We stood there for about five minutes before the woman working even acknowledged us. Not even a simple "Hi" or "I'll be right with you." It felt like she didn't notice us or simply didn't care that we were standing there waiting. As someone who absolutely LOVES baklava and has had it from many different places, I was extremely disappointed. Between the strange taste and the poor customer service, I definitely wouldn't come back or recommend this place. read more

Stopped in here to get a little sweet treat to hold us over until lunch... oh man! What a find! We just got a couple of small pieces of pistachio baklava and sat outside at one of their cute tables (they have indoor tables too) to enjoy it. Mind-blowingly fabulous! The taste and texture make this -- hands down -- the best baklava we've ever had! A thoughtful touch was the addition of a little hand wipe -- as the delicious honey does get your fingers a little sticky. Cannot wait to go back and try another flavor of baklava. read more

The Baklava - Pistachio baklava - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Key West, Florida

5 stars for the Turkish coffee!! It was AMAZING. Just like what I drank overseas. 3 stars for the tea, I sampled all of them, and none were tasty enough for me to buy, so I bought coffee instead. The sweets are mostly very good. There was only one flaky pistachio dessert that was similar to baklava, and no one in my family liked it. The original baklava and the chocolate squares were very good. Docking a star for the prices, we got 3 coffees, and a handful of bite-sized desserts, and the bill was over $60. read more

The Baklava - Amazing Turkish coffee! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Key West, Florida

This spot is open fairly late so it's good to get a post dinner treat. I went with the coffee ice cream. I liked the coffee flavor but I found the texture to be a bit icy and not as creamy as I'd like. They have lots of other desserts as well that may be worth a try. Paid street parking only of course, but we were able to find a spot a few streets down. read more

What a treat for the eyes and the mouth here in the middle of the action in Key West. I needed some caffeine after a few long days for a pick me up. The Turkish coffee is a tiny concentrated black coffee that certainly has a kick! I hit a few samples of different desserts and enjoyed them all. It's worth a stop to this unique shop. read more

What a gem to find in Key West. We were being tourists and this place caught my eye coming out of the Key Lime Pie Bakery. I love Turkish coffee and this place was so beautiful and cozy with the friendliest man running the cafe. He recommended a few items and let us sample a few as well; we ended up with an assortment of baklavas and other sweets. Everything looks like it's made with love and detail; we loved everything we tried. Definitely give this place a gander! read more

A 5-star Turkish bakery shop. The place is really lit . Loved the ambience, the desert and their tea. The name says Baklava but they have much more than just baklava. They have some Key west inspired desserts - specifically key lime inspired Turkish desserts. Didn't get a chance to try everything but I will be back to shop whenever I visit Key West again. Quick and sweet service. read more

I did purchase a container of ground Turkish coffee. I was charged sales tax at the rate of 7.5%. Coffee in FL is considered a food item when unprepared. Thus, taxing for coffee should not have happened. Make sure you check your receipt. Tried calling several times. Only could leave a VM. Still waiting on return call. I don't think they know the revenue laws in FL read more

They had me at "baklava". However, his pastry and tea shop is so much more. The specialty pastries are amazing and it's hard to make a choice on which one to try The staff is so friendly and helpful The shop is so clean well organized, and the lighting is colorful and wonderful This is truly a must on your trip to Key West read more

We stumbled in and the food is all incredible. The key west delight is absolutely one of the best desserts I've ever had. The coffee is strong and sweet, the pastries are flaky and soft, and the ice cream is flavored perfectly and creamy. The inside is very cute as well and the employees were sweet and helpful, giving recommendations and bringing food to our table. read more

If you're a fan of Turkish sweets, this place is a must-visit. They offer a wide variety of Baklavas at reasonable prices and also serve Turkish coffee, which is among the best I've had. We tried the original, pistachio, walnut, and others--all were delightful. These Baklavas are a bit different from those found at typical Mediterranean spots; they're less crispy and slightly sweeter, likely due to the honey used. Despite this difference, we thoroughly enjoyed them! The ambiance of the place is lovely with tasteful decorations and it's well-maintained. The service was excellent; the lady attending to us was very friendly and even gave us tips on choosing the best Baklava flavors. They also offer other desserts like macarons, which we couldn't resist and took a dozen with us on our way out. They were delicious! Yum! read more

Service is great, the place itself was very clean. My wife got a macaroon and some vanilla Turkish ice cream. Macaroon was delicious, but the Turkish ice cream has a weird sticky texture like taffy that we weren't expecting. Flavor was okay but we don't think any type of ice cream should have that kind of texture. read more

Turkish coffee and deserts. Sort of amazing. Coffee was OMG good. Not for the faint of heart. My wife had the Baklava, the best she has ever had. I had some halava, a seemingly fresher moister version than I have had in the past. Very clean inside with an amazing amount of interested desert choices. More than I have heard of. With a visit and sampling. They do let you taste before you order. This is counter service, but there are plenty of tables for seating. it is indoors but open air like so many KW buisinesses. read more

I'm a HUGE fan of baklava so I walked in assuming I'd just get that, but the turkish delights caught my eye (did anyone else ever wonder how they tasted after watching Narnia?), and the lady behind the counter was incredibly helpful, guided me through what I might like and what each type might taste like. I'd totally recommend going here to try a few new tidbits and see if you can find yourself a new favourite dessert!! :) read more

Bought baklava in this place. Spent 200$ for it and after 6-8 hours of eating their baklava got food poisoning as well as other three members of my family. We came from Miami, bought baklava on December 31, 2023, and poisoned by it after 6-8 hours later. Symptoms were: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, temperature of 100.4F (38C), and muscle cramps due to dehydration. If you bought baklava in this store on December 31, 2023, please, throw it in the trash. I went to Urgent Care on January 2nd to get some help in Miami. All of us ate their baklava and after 6-8 hours we got food poisoning. A report to the responsible organization in Key West will be written to authorities about poisoning cases such as local environmental health department (EHD) or Department of Business and Professional Regulation and the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services read more

We ate a pistachio roll -it was green and mushy. Baklava had too much honey and wasn't that crunchy. Maybe Turkish baklava is different than Greek but my husband and I didn't care for it read more

I truly hate to give this superb authentic Turkish shop the rating it deserves. I want to keep it a secret and all to myself. On our last trip to Key West this was truly the highlight of our trip authentic baklava as I have never seen before with different variations and styles. Turkish delight to delight the most stringent critic. If this were not enough the service is immaculate and knowledgeable. The owner and crews are not only knowledgeable but extremely enthusiastic about their product and their culture and are so willing to share with their customers. A brief example we were there close to Christmas last year and as we were walking down the street away from truly stuffing our faces with their food a gentleman was racing behind us we turned around it was the owner who had a beautiful gift trust to wish us a Merry Christmas. What more can I say read more

Tea is delicious! Wonderful ambiance as well! The sweets were uniquely good, different than anything i have had before!

I love the taste! The service was quick! I would love come again. If you enough lucky you can see the belly dancers!haha
