Effie's Place Family Restaurant

Quick and quality consistent service by all staff, excellent portions and taste of food. Really enjoyed the new England clam chowder soup, corned beef hash, and French toast. Fairly lively environment but not too loud for conversation. Had to park on a nearby side street, not a lot of parking during busy times.

The only thing I would recommend is a little more flavor. The French toast needs cinnamon and vanilla in the egg mixture to give it a more French toast feel. It looked and tasted like the bread was dipped in eggs and cooked. The eggs needed a bit more salt but other than that everything else was great.

Effie’s is a charming spot. Our waitress Kirsten was seriously excellent. She handled our big party with ease. She was friendly and efficient. We had a great experience overall. Good food, good service, good place. You should go check it out for yourself.

I cooked in restaurants like Effie’s for about 5 years, pursued a culinary/hospitality career path, consider myself a foodie, and have managed people in fast paced environments for more than 27 years. I have also been to Effie’s at least a dozen times, usually for breakfast. The food, service, and atmosphere are top notch. A few key words that come to mind are Dependable, predictable (I know what to expect), and delightful. It is always a pleasure and I look forward to dining there with family or friends. You can’t go wrong and you won’t be disappointed. Great job Effie’s!

Enjoyed the Food! We stopped by this restaurant for a bite to eat on Sunday afternoon dropping off a family member at college. We arrived around 12:30/45 & we’re hungry. It wasn’t too busy. I enjoyed the mimosas & the meal; especially the steak fries. All of us enjoyed our meal. The waitress was very friendly & attentive. I would definitely return to this restaurant.
