Enjoyed the shakshuka. Nice healthy kosher food. Ambiance is not amazing but good food and service.

A friend and I shared the amazing Falafel Platter and a Smoked Turkey Sandwich and there was far too much food. The hummus, babaganoush and guacamole were particularly fine.

We stopped mid afternoon for a drink and snack. Service was very friendly and efficient.The restroom was sparkling clean, Spanish spoken. Good take out service.

Walking through Manhattan headed The Met and ran into this restaurant. What a surprise, clean, inviting and a very friendly staff. Limited menu, but lots to offer if that makes sense? I had the cheddar pancakes, chicken schnitzel, and spiced maple syrup. Was amazing!

A friend and I met at Effys for a breakfast/coffee catch up, and were pleasantly surprised. The shakshuka and French toast were delicious, the atmosphere was laid back, and it was decently priced. I would certainly go back.

Very disappointing Tiny space - does not offer most items on menu on website. Walked out without eating. Choose another option.

We just happened upon this place after we'd been riding in central Park. Beautiful fresh food - nothing like we had been experiencing in most of America!! The service was great as well

Come here if you are sick of eating pancakes and waffles for breakfast. Loved the mediterranean breakfast and the Avocado +eggs.

I'm not a coffee/tea drinker on a typical day of the week, but the vanilla chai latte has now been my introduction into that world. Brown sugar is the secret ingredient here to smooth the flavor of everything together.

Was good in a pinch. Kids loved the pancakes. Healthy options good portions, staff was friendly and cost was good for value.

Simple dishes, prepared with quality ingredients.. we ordered take out a week ago, blueberry pancakes, falafel, and it was great.. even as take out- everything was awesome.. so when we stopped for a quick bite, our expectations were quite high- but we were just as happy, if not more so as the staff are super friendly. I love this place, I can't wait to work my way through the menu. Best pancakes on the UES and I am a connoisseur. YUM!

We were excited to see this restaurant opening on the UES. We tried it for brunch yesterday & LLOVED it! I had an egg, potato wrap & my husband had a falafel wrap with fries. All were outstanding. Welcome to the neighborhood!

Great stop for lunch... Reasonably priced and delicious. I would suggest the falafel wrap! The fries are perfectly crispy and the garlic mayo is tasty.
