I absolutely love this place! The dish I got this time plov, reminded me of home and how good homemade food tasted like! I was so emotional eating it, Two ladies had to ask me what I order! I always stop here when I'm visiting DC. And I end up leaving with a big pastries with me everything! My favorites are shakerbura and badambura, this time I tried the pistachio baklava, which was so fresh!

This was bad.
Got greeted with a quite busy lady that took a minute to actually take our order. They were out of a lot of pastries for some reason but that’s fine, I got a cake slice… little over $10. While paying I noticed a COCKROACH just pacing around the cashier counter but at that point I had already paid. Waited for my cake just to get what I believe is a criminally small size (considering the price and comparing it to the slice my friend got much more proportionate). At last the cherry on top was finding a literal hair in the cake.
Did not get any refunds. Have health inspection come check the place out!

I work in DC and love coming here whenever i have a break. Natavan( owner) and her staff are so welcoming. My favorites are the dolma served with a special homemade green sauce, meatball dumpling broth based soup called doshbarra, along with her vegetarian qutab (flatbread stuffed with 🌿and greens) They have multiple versions of Baklava, cookies and other middle eastern sweets. Highly recommend for those who have sweet tooths.

I sent my family member who was in the area to bring me a piece of cake home this evening based on the reviews that the cake slices were so good. When I opened the cake box the first thing I noticed was the cake looked nothing like the pictures on the reviews. The cake looked old. I could see that the crumb was extremely dry. The icing was not fresh looking either. I am a baker, I know. I took a bite just to try it and the raspberry cake was so dry, it tasted like it was old, at least a week maybe more. The cream icing was not tasty either. I was so disappointed that these people would sell something as bad as this. Threw the cake in the trash. I will never get cake 🍰 or anything else here.

Sharbat Bakery & Café in Adams Morgan is such a great find! The pastries are fresh, rich, and full of flavor — you can tell they’re made with real care. The coffee is smooth and strong, the perfect match for their sweets. The vibe is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are always friendly and kind. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast or a mid-day treat, this spot never disappoints!
An amazing Azerbaijani restaurant in Washington DC! The qutabs, dushbere, erishte, plov, dolma, unique pastries, baked goods, breakfast dishes (kuku, scrambled eggs with tomatoes), thyme tea, and homemade döners — everything was absolutely delicious. It truly felt like we traveled back to Azerbaijan. We loved it so much that we came both for breakfast and dinner in the same day. Aunt Natavan’s warmth and kindness make you feel like your own mother cooked for you. For anyone living in Washington, this place is simply irreplaceable!

I had a Badambura. Warm and fresh out of oven. Less sweet than gujia, I actually did like it very much.

The cakes are divine, what a treat! Just moved to DC after a year in Europe and dreaded coming back to American treats, but this place is like bringing a piece of Europe with us. No need to try cakes anywhere else. Lucky us!
