" I had an unforgettable experience at Cafe Efendi for my birthday! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. We ordered a range of dishes including their famous lamb chops and kunefe for dessert. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted just like the authentic Turkish food I had while traveling in Turkey! The service was excellent, our server was attentive and gave great recommendations. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a real taste of Turkey! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was decent, my experience was marred by poor service. We waited a long time before our server came to take our order, and it felt like we were forgotten. The food that we did receive was tasty but not enough to make up for the lack of attention. I’m not sure if I’d return as I’d prefer a more attentive experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The best Mediterranean food I’ve had in a while—I’m talking flavors that take you straight to Turkey! The grilled meat was tender and bursting with flavor. The kunefe for dessert was heavenly! The atmosphere mixed with Turkish music and lively decor makes for a pleasant dining experience. I highly recommend Cafe Efendi. It’s worth every penny. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience today; while the food was generally good, I felt some dishes didn’t meet the authentic standards they promised. The fish I had was just okay and the portion was smaller than expected. However, the service was decent, and the ambiance is lovely, making it a nice place for dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a real treasure! The lamb shank was perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. Plus, the staff was delightful and gave us samples of appetizers. I also tried their nutty baklava that was the perfect sweet ending to my meal. Will definitely come back for the ambience and the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner there recently. Food was decent, but the portion sizes were quite small for the price. The ambiance was lively, but I felt the staff seemed overwhelmed as it took a long time to get our orders. Would consider trying it again on a less busy night, maybe it was just an off day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place for hookah and a chill night out! I loved the shared atmosphere with a DJ and some live performances. The drinks were good, and the food was enjoyable, although nothing particularly extraordinary. Overall, not bad for an evening, and I might return for some shisha with friends. " (*Curated Review*)
