Our family friends gifted us a full size tray of mixed sweet when they were visiting the store. Our tray had eight variety of sweets. I have just tried four (for now, to reduce my calories intake) and they were awesome.Since we are few hours drive away, we can still access the sweet by ordering online.I recommend you try Al-Hamdani Sweets.Sorry for posting a picture with nearly half of the tray eaten up (i.e. devoured).

Can’t say anything besides thank god!!! Stumbled across this place by chance on vacation, hands down best Knaffeh i’ve managed to get my hands on in the US. Also every piece of Baklavah I tried was heaven. Highly recommend, very authentic, no one will be disappointed by these sweets

Amazing and delicious collection. I think the baklava is the best Ive had in the US at least for a while, so sweet and light. The prices were good, the ladies at the front were wonderful and they had complimentary cold water. We were so grateful! Thank you so much!

Just delicious🤭 Literally everything here is delicious 😋

Whenever we go to Sandiago we make it a point we go to this sweet shop. Being born and raised in the gulf this is a to go place to have the dessert especially baklava. Love this place. Definitely recommend this place to anyone

You cannot find better quality Middle Eastern pastries! Family owned and friendly staff. THIS is where you come for great taste! Our new favorite.

Excellent service the sweet very delicious everything was great thank you very much

Nice variety of baked treats including several varieties of baklava.

Very nice place

Absolutely my favorite place for sweets in San Diego. The stacks and stacks of different sweets are irresistible. The kunafa was great!

Best Arabic sweets so far I’ve found in the US

Love this bakery. The knafe was on point. Very friendly service

The deserts here are to die for! Great variety, plenty to choose from. I am glad I came across this bakery. ❤️

Wow AMAZINGI know this place for a long time but I never go and buy anything from there but I have a special customer I said let me just stop by and get something. So I enter and say hi someone came and serve me I told him I need some sweet I point one of the sweet and I told him can I have another pound from this one. He told me this one is from yesterday I will give it to you free. thats really nice of him and he was very honest I mean no one will do that most places they will sell it to you he give me a pound from different kind I was so happy and I said let me just give them five star because they deserve that

Amazing bakery! Very friendly service and the sweets are out of this world delicious and not too sweet. Will definitely be coming back.

Delicious sweets amazingly made but please add more pistachios on the “ men el sema”من السما it barely has pistachios

Great middle eastern deserts. Done as it should be, cannot tell you which one cause like all of it. But you should pay a visit and taste it, but don’t blame me for putting some weight on😀

I love their Kunafa. It’s delicious.

Best sweets in San Diego and super nice costumer service. Thanks 👍

Best sweets in town. Freshly made kunafa is def a signature here

Best spot in SoCal for sweets and desserts!I live about 200 miles away, and trust me it worth the drive to restock on some of those authentic goodies...Highly recommended.If you have a big order which I usually do, I call in before heading down there + their Kunafa always sell out, so call to place an order 🤗

The best baklava ever, honest owner and down to earth, excellent selection and not overly sweet. We must stop by here every time we are in San Diego!

My favorite place for Kanafeh

Best sweets ever, you can have variety of sweets and a great taste. Very clean place and very nice staff. Highly recommended.

Very good food. Some staff are kinda mean but food is worth the troubles

So so delicious its a real eastern test. Prices are very reasonable for the service and quality.

Quite simply the best in East County -- and probably the rest of San Diego, as well. Whenever we have a special birthday or special event, this is our go-to bakery. Weve never been disappointed.The girl is wassan a good service at all

Sooo delicious and staff was very kind and helpful. Got a variety of many types of sweets and extremely affordable. Will definitely be back again! Greatness! Not overly sweet or syrupy

So yummmmmmy and fresh baklava

Friendly staff that works extremely hard who puts out 5 star delicacies. One of the best places is SoCal 🤙🏼🤙🏼

Baklava is fresh and test good very friendly I recommend.

The service was great thank you very much

Small bakery full of amazing sweet pastries and baklava. High quality and taste. Clean and pleasant setting.

Tast amazing and nice pepole.

Im usually not a fan of baklava but this one is an exception. Authentic and delicious Iraqi sweets.

A friend stopped here and bought us some little pastries. They were excellent.

Amazing customer service... I highly recommend this place . Their sweets are so good

I shopped at this place when they first opened their sweet were good. But recently I went there to buy few trays of baklava and other sweets to take as a gift to our friends. First of all she only sells baklava by weight not by tray (fixed price) as other middle eastern sweet shops do; secondly after I bought and left the store and took it to our friends; they noticed the baklava was Drenched with syrup to make it heavier when weighted; the taste was terrible and I ended paying $70 for sweets that was worthless. Next day I called and complained saying we weren’t able to eat the sweets because of heavy Syrup that was added on purpose to make it heavier. The worker said I will have the owner call you, they never did. Such a ripoff place don’t shop there.

Everytime I came to San Diego I have to visit ALHAMDADI SWEETS because hes #1 for me ..Very Delicious and an amazing Iraqi sweets

I love this little mom and pop bakery. Nothing special but their baked goods are pretty good for the price. I always leave happy.

Authentic Iraqi sweets.

The nicest people you could ever meet and the best desserts Ive ever had!! Always freshly made and absolutely delicious, and the owners make you feel like youre family ❤️

The best sweets and Deserts in San Diego

Very good customer serviceThe best taste everAlways satisfied

Every time when we ho to paterson nj we yho to alhamdani. All their sweets are fresh and delicious... High recommend to go there...

I have got my baklava today around 5pm . The customer service was excellent and extremely kind . The lady that work there I believe her name was Wassan, she is such a nice worker . We have got the best Baklava ever . Left so happy.

Great costume service but the desserts aren’t fresh & I won’t go back again.

One of the best sweet spots in San Diego by far!! They have amazing desserts and they are specialized in Baklava and carrot cake and more. Must visit to see for yourself.

The place to stop before visiting friends.

Delicious 😋

The lady working there was very generous!

Best Baklava (بقلاوة) I ever had PERIOD. Not the Baklava I had in Turkey, Lebanon, or Syria or Iraq, was, Alhamdani in San Diego! We go from Los Angeles once or twice a month to Alhamdani to stock up.

Best of the best

Drove quite far for this place, was excited until a customer pulled his mask off and never was asked to put it back on. He walked around the store talking loudly, spreading his droplets everywhere.

Their pastries are awesome different but delicious, a must try.

Best dessert and sweet. Recommended

Nice people and delicious sweets.

The best in town. Kunafa was phenomenal. Chocolate baklava was perfectly made. Will come back

The Best

Oh my God this place it’s reminds me with old sweets places in Baghdad, with all delicious Baklava and other stuff. Got 3 boxes with me to Austin. Promise to visited again and again and again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The best baklava in town testing good and fresh I highly recommended . Best customer service nice staff

This shop makes some of the best baklava and other middle eastern sweets Ive ever had--and Ive had a lot! We took a sample tray to a party and everyone was raving about it. Bravo! Great sweets, sweet service! I highly recommend Alhamdani. ❤😁

This place is amazing, the dessert there the best thing i have ever tried the guy who works there very very very friendly. I think the dessert there much more better than the once in my country. I don’t usually like the arabic stores and restaurants here because they are not that good or they don’t have a good service, but here is different experience they got the best service and best desserts as well.Thank you for the great work. Definitely i am coming back whenever i visit San Diego.

Best sweets. I never had so delicious sweets in my life. My wife and my family loved it.

This place has the best baklava I have ever had. So fresh and not overly sweet with the honey. It is absolutely perfect!! Tried their Turkish delight, very delicious too. Great customer service as well.

I recently went to Alhamdani for Kunafa. I had never had it before. A friend told me about this place. And it was beyond anything I imagined it to be . The Food is outstanding. Services are quick and polite . If I could give 6 stars I would.

Great taste, great collection and very balanced flavor.

Its very good place to buy the sweet very good customer service there Baklava its very good i totally recommended .

Flavors I have never tasted before. These sweets that I bought were of a different variety that I would normally buy. These desserts were definitely made to go with tea.

This is the real Turkish taste. The lady who owned here worked in Turkey at dessert job so she knows how to make the best Turkish baklava in San Diego.
