Lazizah Bakery

I’d do six stars if I could! The gentleman that man’s the counter is amazing, very social and just an all around wholesome guy. I don’t recall the last time I got such a warm greeting when entering a business. The food was also EXCELLENT, I got a beef gyro and it was packed with so much flavor. I also tried the chocolate coconut backlava, another 10/10 easily. I’m 100% going back here and would recommend this place to anyone.

Stopped by Lazizah Bakery in the Yantic River area of Norwich, Connecticut for their garlic chicken sandwich, and it was a revelation! Despite passing by countless times, I'd never visited. Obsessed with trying it, I finally did and was delighted. The Village of Yantic and the bakery itself exude warmth and humor. Our sandwiches were scrumptious, and I can't shake off thoughts of mine. Planning to recreate it at home soon! Also, stumbled upon an enchanting bridge nearby - a hidden gem in Connecticut. Marisa Balletti-Lavoie

This is THE BEST soup I've ever had in my entire life! I'm not sugar-coding at all (I absolutely don't hold back when reviewing). Although the man serving may not flatter everyone who enters his shop, he's genuine and the food is great! His wife is the chef. She's super nice and extremely talented! 1 star taken off because the inside of the place is not pleasing at all but ya know, sometimes the best food come from places like these! There are no indoor seating but plenty outside. I would've enjoyed sitting out there longer if it weren't we hot today. Thank you for my Tai Chicken Soup! The photo does it nooo justice! I will be back for some very soon!! 🍲

Great spot, the gentleman working was so friendly. They had 4 types of baklava so we got one of each. All were delicious but the Lebanese was definitely our favorite. We have to come back for lunch!

The owner is very blunt and has quite the may stories. I get the and beet mixed green Salad with the red lentil and lemon vinegarette and the lemon asparagus soup and its always fresh and delicious made. Highly recommend to visit the quiet burbs of Yantic and have they have a little quiet Patio to enjoy your enjoy your Mediterranean lunch and lebananese desserts

I had fantastic, flavorful food here. Bassem is a hilarious and beautiful man.

Decided to get lunch here as it was close to where I was staying. Basem was great to chat with! The vegan soup was great, and my dad really enjoyed the chicken orzo soup. I'll definitely stop by again for more baklava and probably another lunch.

My husband and I went there today for the first time. The gentleman that greeted us was so warm and welcoming. He told us about the different items he had and we ended up getting baclava, hummus, baba ganush and a vegan dish. Everything was absolutely delicious! I can't wait to go back! I wish there was a place like this where I live!!
