Jerusalem Roastery

such an amazing place to find all kinds of goodies! they have halal gummies, variety of seeds (sunflower, watermelon, etc), kunafa, coffee, tea kettles, trays, and even blankets!when you walk in its very bright and well lit and everything just looks very aesthetic with how the layout of the store is. if you're looking for turkish coffee they can grind it here for you fresh here and it is sooo delicious! for the egyptians, they sell our traditional melon seeds here and they actually taste fresh which is not common for most places that sell egyptian melon seeds.the people that work here are very friendly and have the traditional arab hospitality--aka the best kind of hospitality. def recommend making your way to OC if you're in neighboring cities to stop by this awesome place! i def will be back more often!

Such a surreal experience walking into this store. There were spices, sweets, chocolates, coffee, baklava, Turkish delight, kunafah, Dubai chocolate, pottery. Everything you could imagine finding in a souk in the Middle East. Got some freshly made kunafa, selection of Dubai chocolates and some nuts. Great service and friendly staff. Loved it!

I have been wanting to come here since they opened. Finally made the trip down from the SFV today and it was beyond worth it. I wish I could have bought a little bit of everything, but my bank account would not be happy with me lol. I can't wait to go back and refill on candies, spices, snacks, etc. It was also a beautiful sunny day today and the doors were wide open when we arrived. That felt very welcoming. We were greeted right away and provided with excellent customer service. The layout of the shop is also beautiful and easy to navigate. Their selection of home goods is excellent. I want it all! Beautiful ceramic and wooden pieces. The spices and candies are all very tempting. I wish I could get them all! I can't wait to go back for future refills. I will definitely be getting a lot more. The snack selection was also great. So many things to pick from. We got knafeh and a Dubai chocolate. Both were DELICIOUS. We never had these before so I was very eager to try. Again, I cannot wait to go back for more. There is just so much at this shop and the two men helping us were so kind. I could have easily spent an hour here just exploring the different options.

I absolutely love this place! I got to enjoy a slice of knafeh, indulge in some delicious halal candy, and even grab some bizr--honestly, what more could I ask for? The staff were incredibly kind and hospitable, which beautifully reflects the warmth and generosity I've always experienced with my people. Truly a gem!

I was on the hunt to find the viral Dubai chocolate bar. Jerusalem Roastery luckily had a bunch. Twas amazing and so is this store. They have an assortment of goodies such as chocolate, Baklava and Knafeh, and all taste like they're made with good quality ingredients. I saw through the glass this interesting looking dessert called Knafeh. It's a traditional Middle Eastern dessert of pastry layers, cheese and syrup. I've never had before but it looked good so I decided to get some. Boy was I pissed that it took me this long to discover it. It's seriously one of the best desserts ever. Perfect amount of sweetness mixed with the savoriness from the cheese. If you haven't tried it you should definitely get it. The only thing is that everything seemed a lil pricey, but hey I guess you're paying for the deliciousness and quality!

Saw this place on Instagram and was in the area so I decided to check it out. As a middle eastern, I always try to support local middle eastern businesses when I can. The store is beautifully organized. Bins in the middle of the store have candies, gummies, and spices. Behind the counters are sweets like baklava and nougats as well as nuts and coffee.There are homewares too like coffee cups, trays, decorations, thermos, etc. They have the viral Dubai chocolate here as well. I bought the Dubai chocolate and a slice of knafeh. Haven't tried the knafeh yet but did give the Dubai chocolate a try. I was not a fan of the Dubai chocolate. But the price is good it's $7 for a good sized bar. Other places charge an arm and a leg!Staff was friendly but could improve on communication. I was curious about the filings of one of the nougats behind the glass case. I asked one of the staff what was inside the nougat and he referred me to another staff member who also could not tell me either lol. My biggest criticism was that when I came to visit this store, there were groups of people inside which great yay supporting local business! But I was super annoyed because some people were just loitering and in the way. Legit people were having their own convos in the middle of the aisles and not moving or even aware that others are also trying to shop. This is no fault of the business but it was something I experienced. Prices seemed fair. Plenty of parking in the shopping center.

Came here for knafeh and keep coming back for more. I drive all the way from South Bay to come here... I've spent so much on candy, their gummies, the Dubai chocolates and more. Really love the aesthetics, the employees are funny and kind but the treats is what I crave the most! Love how parking is easy, place is very clean. The products are ample and I love supporting this business!

So happy we happened to stumble across this store, it'll be one of our go-tos when we have a sweet tooth now! The shop was so neat and organized and aesthetically pleasing. The staff was super patient! We have never tried any of the sweets they offered and they explained every single one to us. They had so much to choose from we wanted everything! I've always wanted to try Knafeh and we bought a slice here ($6.99 and it was a good portion for 2 of us). I've never had something so good in my life the cheese pull was crazy and the pastry and sauce were even better. It didn't even make it home, we ate in the car in the parking lot. We also got a few pieces of their baklava, which we have yet to try but are excited to have them. Come here if you're looking for a wide variety of halal gummies, Turkish delights, baklava and imported treats.

So glad to finally check out this store. Ike (I think he's the owner) was very helpful and he let us tried a couple things from the store. They also sells the viral Dubai chocolate for $5.99 each. They have lots of options for chocolate and candies. Will be back again for more goodies.

I came here because... of the Dubai chocolate. And I swear it lives up to the hype because the texture and flavor is absolutely scrumptious!!!! Still thinking about the pistachio bits :) We also got the knafeh and baklava. The knafeh has interesting texture as it's a little crunchy but also soft and cheesy. I wish I saved some and threw it in the airfryer because I got it cold but I still ate it up. The baklava... I don't know if we got a walnut pastry or something but it didn't have the regular pistachio flavor. It was decent but I'd love to try the baklava that I initially wanted.
