A Persian restaurant that is low key, has delicious food and great service…read more It's a bit confusing with if it's a sit down self serve restaurant or full service restaurant. The menus are plastered on the screens by the cash area and you have to order at the front, but then there was a server that brought our food to our table. I'm still not really sure how the ordering/ serving works but that's fine I still enjoyed my meal. Here's what we got for a party of 4: Darbari Platter 5/5 - Loved this platter as it came with 2 skewers of chicken leg, 4 skewers of koobideh and 3 portions of saffron rice, grilled tomato and pepper. It was a great way to try different meats and share with the party. Great tasting meats that it was kind of addicting to eat it with the rice. Ghormeh Sabzi 4/5 - This was a Persian herb stew with tender beef, red kidney beans, and dried lime. Was a great addition to our meal. Kashk Bademjan 5/5 - This was their roasted eggplant dip that paired perfectly with the meats and the meal in general. Overall, thought the flavours were great. Really huge portions, especially the rice component. Delicious and great for sharing!

Their menu includes different variety of kebabs, dizi, Biryan, kebab platters and appetizers. We ordered BBQ Platter #4 and a Soltani Kebab. The presentation is very nice; they arrived in a nice copper platter with salad and grilled vegetables. The taste was okay, but the grilled vegetables were burnt. Even the kebabs were burnt in some parts and that's because they don't use a charcoal bbq. The portion of kebabs were smaller than usual; specifically, Koobideh Kebab was very thin, considering their prices are equal and in some cases higher than other Persian restaurants. The staff are friendly and listen med to our feedback.

Food is amazing, but service is non existent…read more Food 5/5 Service 1/5 Ambiance 4/5 Came with a reso for five adults and got seated promptly. The restaurant got busier throughout the night. The restaurant has a beautiful interior and high ceilings. Service here is little to none. Which is unfortunate since their food is so good. After taking our orders we were never checked on. Asked 2 different servers for extra serveware and never got it. Had to ask more than once to get water. Overall the service is BAD. What saves this place is definitely their food, as it's very delicious. Definitely start with their variety of dips for sharing. Here's what we got: Mix Appetizers 5/5 - Came with hummus, baba ganoush, spicy mashed and haydari. All delicious and served with fresh bread. Mixed Pide 5/5 - This was also great for sharing and tasting the variety of pide options. Came with cheese, minced meat, and sausage. Mix Kebab for 2 5/5 - This was more than enough to share with the five of us, as portions are large, especially when you are ordering other sides. A variety of meats including lamb, chicken, beef served with rice and salad. The meal ends with complimentary tea. Overall, delicious spot with great food but just lacks any type of service. So good that I'd still come back for their food.

First visit to Efendi after driving by this restaurant so many times. I shared the beef doner and…read morethe mixed pide with a friend, and we left feeling stuffed and still had leftovers to pack. The restaurant's modern decor makes it feel elevated, but it's not stuffy or posh inside at all. I've never had Turkish food before, so I can't comment on the authenticity or taste, but I really enjoyed our meal! The pide was like a naan, and it tasted so good with that generous cheese topping and the complimentary yoghurt-based dip. The beef doner was also tasty, and I was not expecting that gigantic pile of meat! Stuffing that beef between the flatbread with some of that yogurt dip, add some pickled red onions, cucumber, & tomato = perfection. Looking forward to my next visit!
