We were looking for some Arabic desserts and decided to give this place a try. They have an extremely large selection of cookies, cakes, baklava, and much more. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have a large seating area where you can sit down and enjoy your treats.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also have a beverage station where you can order drinks as well when you first walk in. I wish the service staff was a little bit more friendly. Did not get the best vibe. They're on the pricier side too. Would be willing to try them again when in the area. read more

This review is based solely on the viral fruit pastries . We ordered the following favors: mango, raspberry, lemon, pineapple, coconut, strawberry, and coffee. Unfortunately, we disliked most of the pastries. The mousse/jam filling in the middle in the pastries were too sweet and tasted overwhelmingly artificial. However, the issue might have been the favors we selected. We really did enjoy the raspberry pastry! read more

If you love desserts, this place is an absolute paradise. I drove 30 minutes to get here, and I would happily make the trip again -- the selection is unreal. Food & Sweets The dessert case is massive and filled with some of the most beautiful pastries I've ever seen. Here's just a sample of what caught my eye: * Pistachio Turkish Shells * Pistachio White Chocolate Fingers * Pistachio Turkish Squares * Cannoli dusted with powdered sugar * Fresh Fruit Tarts piled high with kiwi, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries * Classic Fruit Cake * Creamy Mocha Cake slices * Rich Black Forest cake with chocolate curls * Oreo cheesecake bars * Stunning purple mousse dome cakes topped with gold leaf * A dramatic chocolate drip cake perfect for celebrations They also serve ice cream and specialty Dubai chocolates, making the whole place feel like a global dessert market. Everything I tried was delicious -- flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. Ambiance & Decor [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop itself is bright, cute, and beautifully decorated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can tell they designed the environment to match the beauty of the sweets. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The displays are spotless, well-lit, and truly picture-perfect.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service Everyone was friendly and patient, even with the constant flow of customers staring at the dessert cases trying to decide what to pick (because choosing just one is almost impossible). Location Notes Parking is manageable, and the area is easy to access. The shop feels like a special treat destination -- the type of place worth going out of your way for. Overall This is a must-visit for anyone who loves pastries, pistachio desserts, high-end sweets, or just beautiful food in general. Totally worth the drive. I'm already planning my next trip. read more

This is the best place for baklava! They have such a huge selection of savory and sweet desserts. Ice cream, the viral fruit desserts, and even personal pizzas. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely worth a stop in even just to look around![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were a bit confused on how things work because there are multiple counters. You line up at one counter with a number, then an employee leads you to one of the other counters to order and pack your choices. It was pretty confusing because the line and main counter was busy when we went. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Otherwise they have a really pretty sitting area if you want to eat in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And the prices are good, $1.50-2 for each small baklava. read more

I love their petite sweets and their meat bread. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love how they open early which is the best time to go because it can get really busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We get their cakes all the time but their cakes are okay. Not my favorite. Their meatbread is my favorite though and one of the better Dubai chocolates I've had so far. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice place for a casual hangout or some meetings.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Nothing beats Farhat Sweets for pastries!! This has been my go to spot for years on the way to a family dinner, event, etc. I always know whatever I take will be devoured. All the pastries are gorgeous and taste equally as good, and the variety is huge! I also adore Farhat Sweets for their customized event orders. They made my engagement cake, husband's residency match cake, mehndi/wedding celebration cakes, and cupcakes. The detail in all of these is awesome and people love the taste as well. Last but not least... the Dubai chocolate. This really took off this year and of all the places I've tried, Farhat Sweets remains top tier! read more

I came today at about 3pm on Saturday. It was super packed! I didn't quite understand the ticketing system initially, but I did figure it out after a while. I saw this place on social media and fell in love with how good the chocolate bar looked. So naturally I try it and it's delicious! However, I am quite disappointed with how it looked and the overall execution of it. When I asked for the chocolate bar, they went to the back and bagged it up for me while I cashed out. I didn't even look at the chocolate bar until I got home. When I saw it, I noticed that there was no special detail at the top, it was cracked in a couple places, and it was melting. My drive home wasn't even 15 minutes, and it was already melting and coming apart. The bar itself taste amazing but the overall execution and not being able to actually hold the chocolate bar I was very disappointed about. I feel very misled. The advertising was way different than how it came out. Mind you this was also $25 so yes, I expected this to be amazing. read more

I had my eye on this place for quite awhile. We finally made it in to try some of their desserts. First, they have such an amazing selection from sweet to savory, it was very difficult to only pick one item each. We love gelato, and they had some enticing selections, but we came in from a snowstorm, so we will return later to try their ice cream. We got their tiramisu, a vanilla unicorn cake slice, and a nutella cronut. All of it was delicious. The vanilla cake was so super moist, and melted in your mouth. The tiramisu was not bad, a bigger portion than many places. I made a mistake of allowing the server to heat my cronut, it was so ooey gooey and melted, it was a ten alarm napkin situation. I would get it again, and eat it as is. But it was still very chocolatey and chewy and tasty. The place has a lot of places to sit and enjoy your food, or you can take your items home. Many people were hanging out visiting friends or sittting with families. They offer coffee, which I would have tried their had I not just had tea before visiting. This place seemed to have a lot of people coming and going which is a great sign. I like a busy and popular place, that tells us customers like it here. I will be back soon to try more. Maybe even get a large box of several things to try at home. read more

Wandered here after dinner. Turkish desserts. There was a line even in the evening. We tried the chocolate cake and several baklava items that contained pistachios. I didn't want to believe they were going to be too sweet, but unfortunately, they were. If you are looking for something less sweet, maybe go for chocolate cake, or cake in general. If you are looking for something really sweet, the baklavas will be your go to. We got thr Bussma and pistachio bird nest. Both unique but very sweet. Also didn't like that nothing had prices and did not know if we were being ripped off. Lots of Turkish clientele. Hard to understand some employees. Probably won't return. read more

The Dubai Chocolate was soooo goood I got lucky and only had to wait 5 minutes for the next batch so I got mine relatively quick. I wish they made a dark chocolate version, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. I literally live down the street and this was my first time coming here. The store is so cute and is a great place to meet with friends or even catch up on some work. I give props to the store, they've been selling out every day making 200+ to keep up with the demand and have definitely been doing a great job! read more

Farhat Sweets 2999 E Big Beaver Rd, Troy, MI 48083 This was my first time at a Middle Eastern Bakery, and my gawd, I was blown away by all the varieties of desserts and drinks they had. If you wanted cold desserts like ice cream, they had that; if you wanted warm desserts like crepe, they had that too. Coffee? Say no more! They had that, too. I would definitely swing by this place again if I'm ever in the area. 1. Biscoff cheesecake. 2. Ashta Pistachio. 3. Hot Latte! 4. Raspberry smoothie. #Tonylameats #farhatsweets #middleeasterndessert #troymichigan #dessert read more

Where do I start? Where would you start if you walked into a Middle Eastern bakery with EVERYTHING made fresh daily, to your heart's desire? Incredible variety of gelato, cafe, cakes, "American" desserts, Middle Eastern desserts, and savory Middle Eastern eats (samosa, za'atar bread, cheese bread). Plenty of room to relax and eat your prized selection. It's not just about the product - it's the ambiance and the attention to detail. Everything you can think of has their logo on it. I especially enjoy the logo plastic cups because they can be reused, great way to cut down on waste. Every dessert I've had from here is so good, always has me craving for more. You can taste the quality and technique in each item. Every time I'm in the area I have to stop by to treat myself to something. read more

Seriously what do they not have here?! If you need to satisfy a sweet tooth craving this is a great place to do it. They have cakes, ice cream, baklavas to savory items.

I went to Farhat Sweets yesterday and bought a Dubai Chocolate Bar, 4 pieces of baklava, one slice of lemon cake and a slice of carrot cake. I had no idea what a Dubai chocolate bar was and honestly wasn't crazy about it. Thought I was buying just a regular chocolate bar but she put this huge bar in my bag. Lemon cake and carrot cake were decent but the baklava was just ok. Definitely have had better. Total was 41.00. Thought it was expensive for what I got. I would try their cakes again. read more

Every product is amazing I found them quite by accident- and for many things I drive all the way to Dearborn for, I will now get here! Made my parents very happy as well- Zataar bread and baklava needs covered! And then there's fantastic dessert case- and I'll just tell you that the individual Snickers cakes are other worldly! read more

I had about ten minutes to kill because I was waiting for my Indian food carryout from New Delhi, a few shops over from Farhat, and I noticed they had lots of baklava and pastries, so I stopped in. First off: it functions like a deli counter, and you need to grab a number off the roll thing when you walk in (no one told me this, but then I noticed people doing that). They have a MASSIVE amount of different types of baklava, and a lot of people were ordering trays. I ordered a piece of the Nutella baklava, because I've never seen that before and I was curious, and a small piece of a regular type of baklava, and my total was $4. They do not take credit cards if your order is less than $10. I tried to use the 10% off deal that popped up when I checked in on Yelp, and the cashier took my phone (not a fan of that in a pandemic ...) and asked her supervisor, and then told me they are not doing that anymore. Weird, because later I looked at Yelp and there's a 3-month-old review on here that said they did take it, but okay. I just ate the regular baklava and it was pretty delicious, so I can see why this place is so popular. They also have non-baklava desserts (see my pics) too. Overall, 5/5 for the baklava and 3 to 4 out of 5 for the service and kinda-confusing order system, so I will give Farhad 4 stars overall. Also, I might be wrong on this, but I think they might be expanding + moving across the street to the ALDI plaza, near Vivi bubble tea - there's a big sign that says FARHAT, COMING SOON on one of the standalone buildings there. read more

Came here specifically for the viral "Dubai" chocolate bar. Very overpriced, but I understand it's in high demand right now. Everyone will try it, and then the trend will fizzle out and no one will remember this chocolate bar even exists. I'll be honest the bar itself was a 8/10. It was delicious! But way too sweet and I couldn't take more than a few bites without my stomach hurting. The service here was awful. A bunch of kids running around aimlessly. Even after I paid for my bar, I waited 20 minutes and the kid who rang me up accidentally gave it to someone else who purchased after me so I had to wait even longer, and then it was given to me in a plastic box and it was all melted and falling apart by the time I took it home. So for presentation it was 0/10 but still tasted good. Worth the hype? Yes, I believe it was worth trying it. But wouldn't purchase again. But this review is strictly about the viral chocolate bar. I'm sure Farhat Sweets has a ton of other things that are amazing. read more

When you first walk in it can be a bit overwhelming and chaotic. Grab a ticket with a number because they'll call out your number and that's when you get to order. It can be a long wait so be prepared for that. Don't go in thinking it'll be a quick in and out, sometimes the wait can be very long. I ate in once and got the crepe and the presentation was stunning and it tasted so fresh. Would recommend trying it out. I did wait very long for it though. read more

It must really be awful to be a business owner these days because the employees at this place are clueless. I tried for two days to place an order for pick up and the staff was rude and extremely unhelpful. Good thing there are so many great middle eastern pastry shops in Michigan. I'll never go or give my business to this one. In the mean time I'll give them a tip..... after the third time of being placed on hold you shouldn't tell the customer to " ok hunny, hold"..... lol. This place needs to get a clue. read more

The sweets here still taste great, but customer service has gone downhill for the last few times I dropped by. What happened to the service like it used to be? During my last visit, there weren't many customers in the shop and yet, it took about 20 minutes for our coffee to be ready and our sweets were given to us without trays, until we asked for one. The utensil cup was missing forks and it took staff a while to refill it. The bakery was also a mess - dirty floors, tables, and chairs (see last images). So disappointing! read more

This place is amazing. They took care of me well and made my birthday cake on time. The cake itself was beautifully made. And super delicious. The cake had great quality. It didn't taste like medicine at all LOL. We all know those cakes that taste like medicine but this one was amazing and packaged beautifully. The only thing I had to do was bring sunflowers that I would love to put on my cake because I was being extra LOL. It was a bit expensive but for what I was asking for it felt asked though it should have been more expensive but it wasn't. I love this place! It's so cute! again beautiful family business. read more

The ice cream flavors are really fun. We tried chocolate, vanilla, biscoff. The biscoff one is awesome and also has pieces of the cookies in it. We also got some pistachio baklava. The prices are reasonable which is great bc it means you can order multiple things and try them. The crepes looked huge- didn't try those but it almost looked like it was on a cutting board with the toppings in small bowls. They also had lots of cakes and it appears they do wedding cakes too. Ambiance was nice- light colors, clean, lots of space. You can sit down there too. Service was good; you pull a number and then they will help you. read more

I had been hearing about this place for over a year. Than, realized it was less than 2 miles from where I was working. What an awesome experience.., In the gloomy December day after work, I went. It was like going to a beautiful museum of Art of Baked Goods!! I wandered up and down the enormous, very organized display cases before, y could even begin to make up my mind on what to get. I ended up with a mixed tray of Baklava for my co-workers. 12 mixed macaroons, fresh pita bread and Nutella Gelato for my son and pistachio Gelato my favorite. Was it good? When you get out of bed at 2 am to eat pistachio gelato out of the container in the dark kitchen with a fork... yes sir!!! The love and hugs from my coworkers too was priceless. I'll be back!! read more
