Nazareth Sweets

This place is absolutely amazing. I love the food, and the owners are very passionate people about their food. They have lovely, simple decorations for their restaurant, and the pricing is pretty good, too. I highly recommend that you try this place out. They also have meal options, besides sweets, if you're looking for something a little more substantial.

Ridiculously good selection of Turkish Delight (I had no idea there were different types?!?), delicious pastries, and baclava. Perfect with a fragrant tea or sweet coffee. Definitely want to try their savory options, also.

Food here is very vey very very very very very very good. It's actually amazing. Thanks to chef Fadi and Tahani, Kansas serves one of the best Middle Eastern food across the map.

Listen to me only. Don't read any of the other reviews.

Things to know:
1- This is not a regular restaurant. It's designed as a dessert place and coffee/tea. They do Middle Eastern brunch on weekends and orders to go. If you want to dine here, you have to call them ahead of time preferably at least one day before. Otherwise the chef Fadi might throw some very sharp words at you. Fadi is a true super star chef.

2- The national meal of Jordan is Mansaf. I don't have to explain it here. So read its Wikipedia page. It's accurate. Simply it's rice topped by lamb meat that was slowly cooked in a special yogurt stew. They make it to perfection here. They don't use the traditional ultra thin bread but still the lamb shanks and jameed/strained yogurt stew are prepared the authentic way.

3- The king of middle eastern desserts by far is Kanafah. It's a Palestinian dessert invented in Nablus definitely before 900 AD. I don't have time to explain it either so go to Wikipedia page. Simply it's sweet Akko cheese topped with something like sweet fine bread crumbs on top. Never take it home. You must eat it in situ hot and fresh.

So what to get here?
1- Mansaf. And cooked meals. But as I said, to avoid making chef Fadi angry, call at least 1 day ahead.
2- Warbaat and Knaafeh desserts. Warbaat are pastries filled with thick cream. They're super amazing here made daily, 5 stars. Fine Knaafeh is 4 stars but still very tasty. Ask for knaafeh to order. Don't get the already made ones.
3- The weekends Middle Eastern brunch.
4- I wouldn't get Turkish delights. It's processed food. Get the freshly made pastries instead. Whatever they make fresh is good.

Kept coming back and ordering to go, hence the 5 stars.

This was my first time having authentic Mediterranean food and everything was soooo delicious! Each dish tasted fresh and there were layers of flavor to each dish. If you're looking for made-from-scratch quality food and warm, personal service, this place is definitely worth checking out!

This place is unbelievable. My first time in was today. Everything looks beautiful. I purchased the Walnut baklava with dark chocolate, it is heavenly!! Can't wait to try my variety pack!!
