Luminous Cafe — Restaurant in Edina

‏We discovered this wonderful Iranian pastry shop and were absolutely blown away! The saffron ice cream was out of this world super creamy, full of authentic saffron flavor, and loaded with crunchy pistachios. It instantly brought back childhood memories!

‏We also tried their cream-filled rollets, and they were incredibly fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet just the way they should be. You can really tell everything is made with care and high-quality ingredients.

‏They had a great selection of traditional Persian sweets like naan nokhodchi (chickpea cookies), baklava, and koloocheh all beautifully displayed and smelling amazing. Everything looked homemade and authentic. We’ll definitely be back to try more!

‏Best of all, the owner herself was there, and she was so kind, warm, and welcoming. She truly made us feel at home. The prices were also very reasonable, especially considering the quality and freshness of everything.

‏ If you’re craving authentic desserts or ice cream, this place is a hidden gem. We’re already planning our next visit....
