My favorite go to place for Arabian desserts. They deal only with cash?

Heard how good Al-Sham’s Knafeh is and let me tell you, those reviews did not lie! Came a day before Ramadan, atmosphere was great, super busy (but now I know why). Got myself a nice big piece of Knafeh and a Medium sized Assorted Baklawa plate! 1000/10 recommend to anyone looking for a killer Knafeh!!

Incredible! The best baklava in all of NYC. They’re open late hours, super friendly staff, and the kunefeh is crazy. I buy trays from here all the time to give as gifts. Just be advised that it’s cash only, but they do have an atm on the premises. Don’t miss this spot!

The most amazing baklava and knafeh I've ever tried. Every time I go in I get my usual and then try something new and I have yet to be disappointed!! I got a big platter for an event once and it was a huge hit. Platters are a bit more expensive but otherwise prices are fair. It is cash only but they have an ATM.

I've been eating sweets from here for over 14 years and they will never stop being my absolute favorite!!! The knafeh here is the absolute best I've ever had. It's different than the others I've tried and far superior in my experience. Same goes for the baklava. I don't much eat it at other places anymore. Ha! I highly recommend you try the variety of nut sections in the baklava. The cashew and pistachio are to die for!! I forget the name of the pistachio & coconut sweet but it's one of my favorites!! You cannot go wrong here. Addictive. They use the highest quality ingredients and everything is made fresh daily by hand. Faieq is the original owner and truly makes the best quality pastries, and is a gem of a guy! Say hi to him while you're in. You won't be disappointed in making the trip over here!!
