Fabulous food with a great atmosphere and lovely welcoming staff. This restaurant doesn’t need any recommendation to visit as even though it was the Sunday between Christmas and New Year, it was so busy; yet still found space for walk ins. Will definitely eat here again if in the area
Having recently moved to Skipton, we'd done the online scouting of best eateries, and had seen Efendy was right up near the top. After dinner last night, I can see why Between 3 of us we shared two Mixed Grill Platters and the Chicken Fajitas, and everything was absolutely spot on. Beautifully marinated meat, all flavoursome and complimentary to one another, the little side touches such as the dipping sauce and the tzarziki, and not an overbearing amount of food. Although we were fairly stuffed, we just had to try the desserts, with the homemade Baklava and the Chocolate Orange Brownie Cake (I forget it's proper name 😂) both beautifully tasty. An absolute must visit in Skipton
Excellent food and service. The portion sizes were good and the atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place.
The very first impression already at the door, very kind & happy staff greeting Us. Food was absolutely delicious and decent portions. No fault to point out, well deserved 5 star & planning to come back for more
