Baklavas used to be so much better when it was run by previous owners. Now it's burnt, philo dough is thick & there's barely & pistachios in the baklavas. I recommend you buy your baklava elsewhere. Not coming back

Today I ate Amritsari kulcha. It was super tasty. I eat it every 2 days during the week because it tastes just like Indian street kulcha. I recommend coming with your family.

The people working there are always very welcoming & friendly. I love their burek with cheese, beef & chicken. The cheese borek is sometimes inconsistent with the amount of parsley it has in it. I personally prefer it when they dont put much or any.

NOW, their baklava with fistik (pistachio) is THE BEST IN THE CITY by far. As a native greek it pains me to say that this place has by a mile the best baklava in Montreal, if not Canada, beating any greek, persian or Arab bakery I've tried thus far.

I definatly recommend for a flaky borek or a baklava

I absolutely love Efes Pastry! It was my first visit, & I was impressed by their delicious pastries. We went yesterday near to closing time, & even though it was his very first day, the gentleman working there welcomed us so warmly & provided excellent service.

We picked up pistachio baklava, kanafeh, & another sweet & honestly, I couldn't even wait to get home. I finished one right in the car! Everything was so fresh, rich in flavor, & beautifully prepared.

Highly recommended!

This Turkish pastry shop is a charming little spot in the heart of parc-ex. I go in there from time to time to grab a coffee & some pastries. I'm not Turkish so I don't know what the heck anything is in there, but the staff is friendly & helpful & quick to inform me on their products. Both savoury & sweet treats I order are usually still warm when I order.

Today I visited Efe's Bakery in Montreal, & everything I bought was incredibly fresh & delicious. But the real standout was the acibadem cookie - hands down the best cookie I've ever had in my life! On top of that, the warm, friendly, & helpful service made a big impression on me & my family. We'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

We went here to collect a'To Good To Go' order & couldn't have asked for better service. The young man who helped us was friendly & inviting, & we felt very welcomed. The pastries & breads were delicious & I've been dreaming about the kouloures (sp?) ever since we devoured the bag of them.

I absolutely recommend you try this place, for the high quality food, reasonable prices & warm, friendly service. A gem of a local bakery which should be a must-try for anyone.
