Reviews for Cafe Efendi Mediterranean Restaurant in Alpharetta, GA

I have been to Cafe Efendi a few times and it has always been an amazing visit. The food is delicious and the staff are... extremely nice. The music is great. They have plenty of tables for people to sit. I usually book my reservation using the OpenTable app. This place is perfect for a fun night out as it's open late into the night. It is also ideal for large gatherings. Read more

Hospitality is great here, loved the drinks and their pita bread is to die for (fresh and homemade) We ordered blueberry mule... and Mediterranean punch, both were really good. For main course we ordered whole fish with grilled veggies, the fish was goodand enough for two as it comes with salad as well. I’d want to come back to try the adana chicken. Read more

Overall the food is good but could be better. We ordered a range of items but loved the zucchini pancakes and the sigara borek.... But some of the other dishes lacked at many levels. The kunefe was dry and not as syrup-y and yummy as it should be. So were thefalafels. We were also bit disappointed with the service. It started out modest but eventually it felt that it was hard to getthe attention of the servers though the restaurant was not its busiest. I mean customers shouldn't have to come to the counterto ask for cheques after calling for it once. But overall, the ambiance and the general vibes of the place are fun andinteresting! Read more

Great ambiance, excellent service, and amazingly delicious food. Everything we ordered was mouthwatering. We were just sad we... didn’t have room for dessert! Highly recommended and will definitely be back! Read more

In May 2022 I threw my friend a 40th birthday party at this restaurant, and 20 friends came. I worked with Alina, a manager... there, and she helped me come up with a perfect family style meal that fit our budget. It was a Tuesday night so we had theirbeautiful enclosed patio to ourselves. They decorated with flowers on the table and it was gorgeous! The food was delicious,the atmosphere was so nice, the service was wonderful, and they made the birthday girl feel very special with the birthday songthey played over the speakers and the sparkler candles. It was a perfect night! It was affordable for everyone, wonderful food,and a fun environment. Couldn’t have picked a better place, definitely recommend for large parties! Read more

I love first time visits to new places. Cafe Efendi did not disappoint. I really enjoyed my entire experience. The wait staff... were very informative and had no problem answering any questions we had and making menu suggestions. We tried some of everythingfrom the sampler appetizer, entrees, dessert, coffee, tea, and hookah (ice lemon mint) is highly suggested. I would definitelysuggest this place for a nice night out with friends. The day time vibe I nice, but I would bet this place really comes alive inthe evening. Read more

What a fantastic place! We had such a blast at this amazing restaurant! It is truly a dinning experience! The atmosphere was so... chill and our food was delicious! The meat just melted on our mouths. We had a party of 7, and still got fantastic service. Thebelly dancer was so fun & the music they play in there sets the perfect vibe. I highly recommend! Read more
