The atmosphere is…read morefantastic, the shop is beautifully designed, and the service was warm and attentive from the moment I walked in. ​The desserts look absolutely stunning--the presentation and attention to detail are incredible. However, taste-wise, the flavor and texture didn't quite match the amazing visual appeal. They weren't bad, but given how incredible they look, I was hoping for a bit richer flavor. Overall, a great spot for the ambiance and friendliness, and I hope the flavors are elevated to match the gorgeous presentation!"

The staff were extremely friendly and more than happy to walk us through their various options. They even offered us a free piece of soft knafeh when I expressed curiosity about it, it was delicious. The pastries themselves are really good. They have the viral fruit shaped pastries and traditional middle eastern desserts. The standout to me was their knafeh. Cheesy, with hints of rosewater and other spices. Some of the best I've ever had. Definitely give them a visit!

I took a frozen knafeh tray to make at home. First, we were overcharged for the tray and didn't…read morerealize until we got home. I checked the prices online on their website and that is not what we were charged. I made an effort to allow them to correct this by giving them a call, no one answers the phone. Then when I took the tray out to put in the oven I realized a corner was burnt. So now on top of being overcharged, a part of knafeh was burnt prior to me placing it in the oven. I usually have no issues when I am eating in person, but sadly this experience was not the same. This is really upsetting and left us without a resolution. I like to support businesses that have integrity and care about the service and products they are offering their customers. Zmzm sweets I personally feel does not care about customers experience nor provides a way to remedy problems. All we are left to do is leave a review and hope we can bring attention to the issues that they should care about resolving. Looking over some other customer reviews I am very doubtful that anyone will follow up in the odd chance someone does I look forward to addressing the issues at hand.

A member from the staff locks and unlocks the door when there's room for more capacity. There are menus outside and inside to help you decide. Tastings are available, though it can slow down the speed of the line. There are only a few, 2-seater tables for the option to dine in. There's more seating available near the entrance. Think forest preserve, picnic style. Parking can also be tricky, but there are spaces right out front and directly across the street. There's a tight lot in the back. For my first visit, I had the lavender honey. It was so good, if you like sweet like I do. The portion sizes were great for the price. I look forward to many more visits to try the various flavors. Worth noting: they do have ready made ice cream cakes, candy and muffins for purchase.

Went there on a busy and hot Saturday and we expected to be in a line for a while and it was worth the wait. My son got a chocolate chocolate chip and I only wanted a taste and they offer this tiny little pony cone which was absolutely the perfect amount of ice cream I wanted. Just a taste. I got the rum raisin and the hubs got chocolate peanut butter and it was just perfect. Creamy and delicious! Place was PACKED but they do offer seating indoor and outdoor. We were lucky enough to get a tiny table and enjoyed our ice cream. If you're ever in the area, The Plush Horse is a must visit!

However, it took about 20 minutes to get our drinks. There weren't any customers at the time and we waited a very long time.
