Güllüoğlu Baklava & Cafe — Restaurant in Cliffside Park

If you’re craving an authentic taste of Turkey, this bakery is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by the delightful aroma of freshly baked pastries and the rich scent of Turkish coffee brewing. The selection of Turkish sweets is nothing short of heavenly—each bite of their baklava, with its perfect balance of flaky layers and syrupy sweetness, transports you straight to the streets of Istanbul. The künefe is a standout as well, with its delicate cheese and crisp, golden crust that’s simply irresistible.

But it’s not just the sweets that make this place special. The Turkish coffee is brewed to perfection, strong and smooth with a deep, rich flavor that’s perfect for sipping. If you're more of a tea drinker, their selection of Turkish tea is equally impressive, served in traditional glass cups that make the experience feel even more authentic.

The staff is incredibly warm and friendly, always eager to share the history behind the sweets and beverages they serve, adding a personal touch to your visit. Whether you're enjoying a quiet moment by yourself or sharing a table with friends, the atmosphere is welcoming and cozy.

Overall, this Turkish bakery offers an unforgettable experience with every visit. It's a true celebration of Turkish culture through food, and I can’t recommend it enough! Five stars...

Pronounced “Goo-oh-loo-ah-loo,” this Turkish cafe is an experience you do NOT want to miss!

Güllüoglu is the place to go for authentic Turkish baklava and treats. Their baked goods are IMPORTED FROM TURKEY and absolutely delicious.

They have chocolate and raspberry pistachio baklava, as well as the most incredible walnut home style version. They also have milky baklava, hazelnut milky baklava, chocolate pistachio and cherry pistachio cakes, semolina pistachio rolls, homemade chocolates, and more! The home style walnut baklava is several layers of thin, crunchy, flaky phyllo dough that leads into finely diced walnuts soaked in the best simple syrup you will ever taste.

The borek is DELICIOUS, soft, buttery, flaky. The Turkish coffee is piping hot and strong.

This is the place to visit. I’ve been there probably 8 times in...

Everything was amazing. This cafe is truly delightful. The food was very fresh and delicious. I had the Dubai chocolate cake and the crunch gave me explosions of satisfaction inside my mouth. I devoured every single bite with pure joy. All the pastries are handmade which gives homemade food vibes. It is a very friendly place. They also sell packaged Turkish delights and things such as Dubai chocolate. The displays are very decorative and organized. They also have a lot of varieties of desserts including ice cream. Maraş dondurması included. The bathrooms are very clean, I felt very comfortable throughout my visit. I will definitely come back and bring friends. Highly...
