It had been a few years since I’d had a slice of Elif’s Kitchen delicious pizza.. Well, seven years gone by and this joint is still pushing fine slices as big as your head. They heat em up quick. They’re quite courteous. The price is right. Selection is decent. They even make non pizza items I’d like to try, but when you’re only in the neighborhood every seven years, you’re probably gunna go with the classic.

I had a delicious lunch today. After struggling looking over the menu with all the options, I settled on a pizza and it did not disappoint. I went basic , and it tasted phenomenal. The crust was thin with a crisp to it and the filling was delicious with good quality ingredients. Top it off with the excellent service, and this was the perfect lunch. I would highly recommend this establishment. Thank you for an excellent lunch

Today I was downtown Albany for another reason but rarely pass an establishment that sells pizza without trying a slice if they sell by the slice. I went into Elif's to try a slice. I chose a slice of Sicilian (I took a bite before I took the photo)with pepperoni which had some honey added, because it was thinner than most Sicilian, which I like. It was very good. Better than most Sicilian I have tried. The honey gave it an interesting taste. I probably would have preferred it without honey, but I am glad it did so I could sample this unique taste. Well worth a try. I gave it 4 stars, but I am sure that it the rest of the menu tastes as good as customer's photos look, Elif's is a 5 star establishment. I wish I had tried a slice of new york style but I had eaten too much today already. When

Lovely restaurant with ample seating space. Food is fresh, delicious and wonderful value for money. The menu is very extensive and everything I had was really well cooked and also felt quite healthy which you don’t get at a lot of kebab style shops. Staff were friendly and helpful too!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Tony Shaffer · Oct 2025

First time trying this place.. we grabbed a 24 cut, the Pizza was solid, the place was super clean and the staff were excellent! I will order again. Only improvement I can see would be the pizza sauce needs more salty & a more tangy taste and less oregano or thyme.. Crust had an epic crunch and not too much either, it was perfect but could really benefit from a more punchy sourdough or deeper flavor taste. All in all this is me being very picky and wanting perfection, because I eat a lot of pizza, but this place is worth the eat! They have great food!
