Really good breakfast, dog friendly, gluten free friendly. We sat outside so we could bring our dog. The omelette was soft and flavorful, the fruit ripe. No watery coffee either. Plentiful and strong. They even had gluten free French toast. Waitress was great with our dog too! :)Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options: toast, French toast

Went there for brunch with my friend and I think my expectations were a lot higher than it should have been. The food was very bland, the turkey bacon tasted like rubber , the egg and home fries were not that great. The only thing that was okay was the orange juice.

Basic breakfast. Effies hash a little dry. Go with corn beef hash. Coffee smooth. Fried Eggs are fried eggs. Relaxing place to eat. Haven't been here in 15 years

No complaints. Like a Greek diner feel. The gyro was great. Pita was fantastic. Came for lunch, left satisfied.
I waited for a table and they passed me up for groups because they didn’t want to seat a single person. I had to talk to the hostess and she said they gave my table up because, “ they don’t go out to the parking lot to get people”. To which I responded I was waiting in the back area seating till I was called (no one came and got me, no one called out my name as they did for other groups I was around). And only then did she give me a table that was ready, empty, and waiting for someone to sit in. This is a “Family” restaurant, I suppose they see singles a not cost effective for their time. I was obviously displeased with the way they conducted themselves.The bacon was cold, the sausage links were cold, the French toast was hot and delicious. The rating reflects the poor conduct of the hostess and the food.

My experience at Effie's yesterday was just ok. The waitress we had didn't seem to be in a great mood. The omelet and scramble plates we had were just ok... I had to ask for the sausage patty I'd ordered. Our meals were nothing special but it's always nice to have someone else make breakfast, so we did still e joy ourselves. My sister in law tells me their pancake is out of this world, so maybe we ordered the wrong thing? Plus the bill was $40 (before tip) for two nothing special (not Benedict, or hash, etc) breakfasts. It was not all bad though. I appreciated so much the "Diner feel" of this place. The menu offered so many different and delicious sounding entrees for all different meal times. I appreciated that breakfast IS available all day, every day. This restaurant has such good reviews, including from my West Hartford family. I'll bet the outside eating area is a super cute area and atmosphere to eat. I will definitely give Effie's another try & think you should not let my review keep you from trying it. Just maybe skip the traditional egg breakfasts and go right for the pancakes or something else.
