Baklawa King

We went there sat Jan 09
We ordered kanaffa .it was nothimg more than a ¼ inch ricotta cheese sandwiched between two layers of crest
It should be ¾ layer of akkawi cheese which stretch in your mouth with lots of syrup.
Taste nothing compared to Lebanese kunaffe .
We ordered a small bottle of water. price was 3.99 plus tax for the water alone.
Never again.

Thanks for Adrienne for the heads up of this new location opening up! Although it’s not far from where I live, I don’t usually drive by Eglinton/​Confed on my reg routes. It’s located in the same brand spankin’ new plaza as Sindhi.
From what I’m hearing this new Baklawa opened up yesterday — or just before that.
After picking up baklava at their original location (I was nearby), I stopped by tonight to check out their new café — complete with a nice seating area, «fireplace», tv playing Arabic music videos. The Dundas (east of Dixie) location does have seating, but the atmosphere is not desirable. I mainly just grab ‘n go there!
From what I observed, they’re still working out the kinks as there was no menu and workers had a bit of probs with the POS system. No biggie. There were screens with photos of baklava, but no pricing or mention of all the items they offer.
Aside from baklava, they also had various mammouls (cookies), petit fours, coconut macaroons, lokum (Turkish delight), nougat, imported fine chocolate from Lebanon by Pralino, different slices of cakes, tiramisu, eclairs, cannolis, and they also had a freezer with something that looked like ice cream/​gelato. They were covered up with wax paper, so I’m guessing that they weren’t ready to consume/weren’t popular due to the weather.
Baklava is the exact same as the other location, so no complaints there! Can’t wait to finally have a nice spot to enjoy it. :)
One criticism that I do have: Owner (s) can do better business if they have a better online presence. Not sure if they do within their own community, but I emailed them 1 – 2 months ago inquiring about their new location and got no response. At their original location, there is ZERO notice about their new location. I also had to ask about their Grand Opening, but apparently, they’re not officially gonna do that until after Christmas. So I believe they can be more successful if they keep customers in the loop as to what’s going on.
