5 /5 David Brager: I love baklava. It is very difficult to find it fresh made, but Lazeez Mediterranean does an exquisite job with their baklava.
The first thing I noticed that was different was the pistachio zest covering the tops of the pieces. Just a light powdering, but it looked beautiful and tasted exquisite. There was plenty of honey and sweetness, but also a plethora of nuts. The dough was flaky, and it just melts in your mouth. This was a wonderful experience and for $6.99, was it very enjoyable choice for a quick dessert after leaving my coffee meeting at McDonalds across the street.
The restaurant is located in a building that, in the 1970s, had been a 1 hour photo shop before it became the birthplace for the restaurant "Some Bagels", which has been a very successful bagel shop in business, now located across Williams Boulevard and has been for nearly 50 years.
May Lazeez Mediterranean be blessed with such success. The servers were kind, the restaurant was exceptionally clean, and the baklava, in my take-out, was wonderful.
If you have a sweet tooth like mine, and enjoy really good baklava, you will not be disappointed. Baklava is very intensive work, and over the years Ive had a lot of different levels of quality. This was by far the best. It was fresh, it was light, and it was delicious.
