Me and my boyfriend, who is born and raised here(I’ve lived here for 4 years) walked in today, because we wanted to play tourist on Father’s Day, ya know walk the island, try things we haven’t, shop a little. We walked in today and we were standing at the counter deciding what we wanted to try, the girl behind the counter was busy helping a family.. we waiting patiently. Mind you they were sitting at a table before we even walked in, already eating everything that they had purchased. The woman at the table repeatedly got up and walked to the counter and the lady behind the counter would listen and do what she asked. Mind you she was still helping them, totally okay. But once she finished helping them she walked up to me and asked if I needed help and as I went to answer she walked away from to go help the lady who is yet again getting up and walking to the counter. We waited again. She approached my boyfriend and told him what the deal was and AGAIN walked away from him to help the family… we turned around and walked out. I don’t understand why waiting 20 minutes to even be able to ask a question about the good they sell is close...

I’ve been coming to Key West every 6 months or so, I can confidently say that The Baklava is a must for me. This place is an incredible, hidden gem here in KW.

First the establishment is super clean and everything is up kept. They take extremely good care of the store front. The staff are, hands down, the most hospitable people I’ve come across here in Key West. They are really kind and helpful. They happily explain everything about each dessert. They let me sample things that I wasn’t sure I would like (which I did like).

They obviously have baklava but they also have some really tasty treats. The Turkish Delights are really good. Not too sweet but are packed with interesting flavors. Everything was fresh every time I’ve stopped in.

The Turkish coffee made here is some of my favorite that I’ve had. It’s rich and decadent, with an almost chocolate finish. It’s incredibly good. And their teas are great. They taste fresh and not skunked. I’ve tried the energy tea, and it didn’t disappoint.

If you’re looking for a brilliant, hole in the wall dessert place, I HIGHLY recommend...
