Food was excellent, service was quick and friendly. But in two consecutive visits, they got our orders wrong. Once they were busy, once they weren't. And in one instance, they argued about it. They eventually made it right.

That's not enough to put me off going there, but definitely something to watch for.

We are early risers and were staying on the upper West side - having trouble finding a good breakfast (more than pastries) before 10 am. Then we found Effy’s Cafe and loved it! Staff are friendly and welcoming, cozy ambience and good food. The place has a constant flow of local customers. I had an everything bagel with cream cheese and lox - fresh and delicious, perfect NY bagel. Highly recommend!

Cozy little place, in the upper West Side, offering Israeli dishes, fresh Mediterranean food, from tasty shakshuka, brioche sandwiches, and vegetarian shawarma wraps. Last time we visited was for Brunch and we had the “Power Wrap,” Two Eggs, Cheddar, Beyond Sausage and Avocado and a “Middle Eastern Breakfast:” Two Eggs Any Style- Served With Hummus, Labneh, Feta, Isareli Salad and Whole Wheat Pita. Coffee with milk.

The food was delicious, as usual however,...
