Eli's Essentials is a convenient and quick spot serving high-quality food. Their pastries are a must-try, with options like lemon flavored and orange flavored loaf cake, which have nice flavors and fragrant citrus zest. The cakes are dense but a bit dry, and priced at $24 each, they may be seen as a little pricey. The restaurant also offers a variety of baked savory and sweet goods, including rye bread, pastrami, and mustard, which have received praise for their quality and flavor. Soups such as chicken and noodle or chicken and vegetable are excellent choices, especially on rainy days. Customers appreciate the friendly and welcoming service, with some staff members going above and beyond to make visitors feel special. Despite occasional inconsistencies in staff attitude, Eli's Essentials remains a popular choice on the Upper East Side, with many customers opting to order online for delivery or shipping across the country.
