Cafe Efendi

In May 2022 I threw my friend a 40th birthday party at this restaurant, and 20 friends came. I worked with Alina, a manager there, and she helped me come up with a perfect family style meal that fit our budget. It was a Tuesday night so we had their beautiful enclosed patio to ourselves. They decorated with flowers on the table and it was gorgeous! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was so nice, the service was wonderful, and they made the birthday girl feel very special with the birthday song they played over the speakers and the sparkler candles. It was a perfect night! It was affordable for everyone, wonderful food, and a fun environment. Couldn’t have picked a better place, definitely recommend for large parties!

Overall the food is good but could be better. We ordered a range of items but loved the zucchini pancakes and the sigara borek. But some of the other dishes lacked at many levels. The kunefe was dry and not as syrup-y and yummy as it should be. So were the falafels. We were also bit disappointed with the service. It started out modest but eventually it felt that it was hard to get the attention of the servers though the restaurant was not its busiest. I mean customers shouldn't have to come to the counter to ask for cheques after calling for it once. But overall, the ambiance and the general vibes of the place are fun and interesting!

What a fantastic place! We had such a blast at this amazing restaurant! It is truly a dinning experience! The atmosphere was so chill and our food was delicious! The meat just melted on our mouths. We had a party of 7, and still got fantastic service. The belly dancer was so fun & the music they play in there sets the perfect vibe. I highly recommend!

I love first time visits to new places. Cafe Efendi did not disappoint. I really enjoyed my entire experience. The wait staff were very informative and had no problem answering any questions we had and making menu suggestions. We tried some of everything from the sampler appetizer, entrees, dessert, coffee, tea, and hookah (ice lemon mint) is highly suggested. I would definitely suggest this place for a nice night out with friends. The day time vibe I nice, but I would bet this place really comes alive in the evening.
