Where Middle Eastern Sweets Meet Creamy Delight
About Us

Step inside Ya Habibi Sweets & Ice Cream, and let your senses take a journey. Nestled at 6271 St. Augustine Rd #28 in Jacksonville, we blend the rich traditions of Middle Eastern desserts with the creamy comfort of frozen delights.

At Ya Habibi, every treat is made with intention. From flaky baklava and kunafa to the popular Dubai chocolate bars and fresh strawberry cups, each bite tells a story of craftsmanship and heritage. On the ice cream side, you’ll find gelato-style scoops and classic flavors like cookies & cream and chocolate — perfect for cooling off in Florida’s heat.

We’re more than a dessert shop — we’re a place of wonder and delight. Lights softly shining on glass cases, the aroma of syrup and warm pastry, and smiles shared over sweet forks make Ya Habibi a place you come for more than dessert. It’s where flavor becomes memory.
Join us any time and treat yourself to something delicious. At Ya Habibi, every taste is a welcome.

Testimonials
★★★★★

Exceptional customer service, excellent variety of baklava and freshly made right there. We drove more than an hour but was worth the drive and our time. The owner was awesome and patient with our changing choices.

Had little/ to no expectations and we came here on a whim, but it was actually a nice experience. And the ice cream (3 scoop vanilla bowl and khafeh cone with vanilla ice cream, pistachio, and chocolate) tasted better than what I was ready for. I’ll probably return to try another dessert.
