    WOWBOOZA is officially my new favorite dessert spot I love that their Mediterranean desserts aren't overly sweet -- everything is perfectly balanced and so flavorful. The kunafa is a must-try (crispy, warm, and just the right sweetness), and their crepes are so soft and delicious. What really stands out are the unique fruit pastries -- they're not only beautiful but taste so fresh and light. Every dessert feels thoughtfully made. The whole place is so cute and cozy, and when you combine it with a cup of Persian tea? Absolute perfection. Such a perfect date spot or girls' night dessert stop. The service was very fast and welcoming. 10/10 -- so cute, so yummy, and definitely worth going back for more.

    Dubai chocolate booza

    The Dubai chocolate booza and strawberry cup were amazing. There is a perfect balance of knafeh, pistachio cream, and chocolate. I've gotten the strawberries many times and it has been consistently good, definitely the best I've had. The blue mojito isn't among my favorites on the menu, the blue raspberry flavor wasn't very prominent. It was ok, but I probably wouldn't get it again. The staff is always really friendly, and there is plenty of seating in the cafe although it can get busy at times.

    Tried the crunchy fruit desserts with filling. The mango was a little sour but the strawberry was good. Overall good but pricey. Paid $10 for each and it's only one per group

    Crunchy kunafa

    Originally came in for the strawberry Dubai chocolate cup but they were out of an ingredient and I wanted to try it as intended. I panic ordered a kunafa. I honestly had no idea what to expect and was so lost but glad it worked out that way. The crunchy kunafa was different but good! I enjoyed the crunchiness with the cheese. It all worked together and was good. I also tried the Dubai chocolate kunafa and that too was good but I could only handle maybe 2-3 bites because it was extremely sweet. The space is so small and lines could be long. Kunafa takes time to cook and there's limited seating. The workers were helpful and tried their best to keep up with the crowd.

    A 100 times yes to this place. This place has my whole heart. The best compliment I can give to this place is whenever anyone visits us, this is one of the spots we take them to. It's not just about the kunafa which is my favorite dessert in the whole world. And wowbooza is the reason for this. But it's also the warmth and the people. You can tell they take pride in where they come from and sharing their culture through food. Please please visit this establishment!! Best vibes.

    Chocolate strawberry cup

    Having heard great things about this place for their Dubai chocolate, being the first in the area, I was excited to finally see the line not going out the door with an additional 50+ people waiting. Got to share their chocolate strawberry cup and knafeh soft with saffron chai ice cream. The flavors were delicious and unique! Prices were fair given the quantity and quality. But I personally could never justify the long waits I've seen for this place before. My best suggestion is to come during their off hours because it is a true sweet little treat.

    I happened to be in this neighborhood so you know I had to come grab the viral Dubai chocolate covered strawberries. The cashier was extremely helpful in ensuring I ordered the right Kunafa for my mom and I to try. The inside is bright and clean. They even provide free water which you will need for this very sweet meal. I would love to come back and try other items in the menu

    Man, oh man!!! This place be poppin' like Donkey Kong!!! I first came here with my daughter during their soft opening and haven't been back since mainly because the lines be WRAPPED around the plaza!! We've been wanting to come back for the Dubai chocolate bars and strawberry cups so bad! As busy as they are they may need to look into a bigger space. Inside is very small and has about 7 small tables. I've had Dubai chocolate from multiple places, but nothing compares to here. I also tried the Biscoff crepe--it was really good at first, but after a while, it got a little too sweet for me. Once the lines die down, best believe we'll be back to try more!!

    Kunafa+booza combo saffron ice cream
    Sheela K.

    I think the hype on social media caused a certain level of expectations. This place is uniquely okay though. The booza is interesting stretchy ice cream I tried the saffron and it was creamy and great. The Kunafa wasn't what I was expecting. I really enjoy Al Madina's kunafe which is kind of like basbousa type topping and I had that here but it was pretty bland, not sweet enough, and I didn't see a lot of cheese. Kunafe is such a dessert you have to do it right or just don't do it at all unfortunately. I don't think you'd spend less than $25-30 here for dessert for 2 (without drinks) it's a bit pricy but I understand the ingredients are probably what causes that. The vibes were kind of for the younger crowd at a certain time but you do see a lot of families come in with kids too I will however be back again one day to try the chocolate crepes and coffee or tea they looked amazing. Service from the younger crew is nice and polite but insanely slow. They may need to hire more help to help with tasks because the wait time is off putting where one person gets their dessert and the other waits 25-30 mins for theirs

    Turkish Kunafa and Dubai Chocolate Bar
    Michelle H.

    WowBooza is a really popular dessert store! There is some seating inside, but the vibes seem to be more of a "grab and go." I think they are known for the viral Dubai chocolate. When I came on a weeknight, the line was outside the door. It gets really busy, but the desserts come out fairly quick. My friend and I got the Dubai Chocolate Bar and Turkish Kunafa. The Dubai Chocolate Bar was pretty good! It was a crunchy milky chocolate on the outside but the inside, which has pistachio, was very soft. Almost as if it was melted inside and I was not sure how I felt about that. The Turkish Kunafa was a unique dessert... I expected a sweet taste but was thrown off by the hot cheese at the bottom. The top of the Turkish Kunafa was not too sweet and I think the cheese tasted too cheesy for a dessert. I would probably give this place a 3.5/5 if possible. Overall, this place has cool desserts to try out!

    Jess E.

    Very unique and interesting booza (icecream). Gummy texture and not too sweet flavor makes it a pleasant treat. The Kunafa is delicious! Sweet, savory, crunchy, and buttery. Perfect with coffee. The place is small so it can get packed very quickly. Service is good and quick.

    I stopped by after KBBQ because I was craving something sweet, and I'm so glad I did. I've always wanted to try Dubai chocolate, so when I saw the bar and strawberries on display, I knew I had to give it a shot. It was absolutely delicious! definitely on the sweeter side, but with some water I enjoyed every bit of it, lol The price was a little high, but the quality was great so I really can't complain. For 11pm on a Sunday, the place actually had a nice crowd, and the staff were friendly to everyone. The vibes were definitely there! My only tiny wish is that the strawberries were chopped a bit smaller so they'd mix more easily with the chocolate. Overall, it was a great late-night treat, and I'll definitely come back whenever I'm in the area and craving something sweet!

    I came here after dinner with 4 other people around 9ish. The store was super packed and lively on a Thursday night and we were still about to get a table for dine in. We ordered Dubai chocolate strawberry cup (super rich, nice textures, little sweetness) and small/medium kunafa (not too sweet, good crunch and cheese had a good stretch). The orders came out pretty fast. I'll be back to try the other items.

    My friends and I visited after I mentioned a high school friend of mine liking this place. Once I…read morerealized where it was... I was skeptical. I do not feel as though downtown Duluth truly captures the amazing food scene of the city, but again, an old friend did like it enough to tell me about it. Inside was pretty spacious. High ceilings and bright. You have to go up front and order, and they'll give you a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready. Pretty standard so far. It's not too loud, even with the music playing in the background, so not bad for hanging out with friends after the food is done, though we didn't. We were all pretty disappointed with our food. It wasn't bad, thankfully, it was just meh. We could've literally drove 5 minutes away for better, so we left as soon as we finished. The good thing is you get to choose what protein you want with your dish, which is nice. However, the chicken katsu here is thin. Also, the K-Fried chicken doesn't really mesh with the pasta. It's like a skewer on the side of your main dish. You can eat them separately and be happy enough. I was ok with the bulgogi, but I would've expected better from a Korean establishment. I haven't tried every single protein option, but I won't lie, tofu in pasta isn't the most appealing to me. For the main dishes, it was pretty bland, especially the omurice. You need the egg and the protein for flavor. The Schezwan pasta wasn't even spicy. At least the carbonara was creamy as it should be.

The Caramel Macchiato was definitely on the sweeter side, but it paired surprisingly well with the savory takoyaki.

Well, hate to be frank, but our Souffle Pancake was just very disappointing. While the pancake was nice and fluffy, the toppings and presentation wasn't even close to being as good as they used to be. I felt this was new management, with a whole, new style of doing desserts maybe? In any case, we did think the pancake tasted good...but it was just lacking in the creamy topping, as only the top layer had this creamy base. The lower 2 pancakes had no cream on it...and tasted quite bland. Even the strawberry sauce was minimal...so minimal, I went up to ask for more. Also, the decorative toppings, including the strawberry, were just BLAHHH. If you come here expecting the Strawberry Souffle Pancake of the past, you'll be disappointed. So nope...just not pretty enough for Instagramming. Made me wonder if the rest of the desserts have gone down as well?? For drinks, my husband had Cappuccino, and I had this Oohlong Tea. Not pictured, but the presentation was just passable...and the taste was just OK. If I recall, their drinks used to be presented beautifully as well as their desserts...but from the look of things, that may no longer be true. Guess I may give this place at least another try. Who knows? Maybe it was just an off night?? Hopefully I can upgrade the review on my next v visit...should the dessert and the drink look and taste better. Fingers crossed??

The Second Level / Upper Floor is reserved for if you are going to be ordering/dining in for the pastas and/or savory foods. I only tried their coffee today on the first level. I did go upstairs to check it out and did see a bunch of people upstairs just sitting and chilling on their laptops with their coffees/drinks; so they may not really enforce their "reserved for pasta dining only" rule. Not sure. Ambiance (First Level / First Floor) - clean, nice, laid-back, chill, cool environment. Casual setting. Cool architecture, design, layout, and decor. Can get loud inside as ceilings are high and can get echo-y, especially if there are alot of people. Also, there is music constantly playing in background. Service (First Level / First Floor) - customer service was quick and straightforward. They were nice and polite. A+. No complaints here. Coffee (First Level / First Floor) - tried their "Korean Iced Coffee" for $7.25. It was one size only and one price at $7.25. It was delicious. Almost similar tasting to a Vietnamese coffee in my opinion (both are delicious). That strong, brewed coffee flavor with this delicious milky, sweetened condensed milk taste. I am not exactly sure if they used sweetened condensed milk in the Korean iced coffee, but it sure does taste similar to it. It's quite good. Also had a "Large Hazelnut Hot Coffee" with creamer for $5.95. It was okay. Total with tax for the two drinks was $13.99. Keep in mind that the WiFi is on your receipt as a QR Code at the bottom. So if you want to use the WiFi, ask for the receipt and/or keep the receipt so that you can scan the QR Code in order to use the WiFi. There was no password on the receipt, only a QR Code that you need to scan. Overall - Yes I would recommend this place for a nice little coffee stop. Check it out for yourself. Enjoy!
