We went to Ecstatic Restaurant for Suhoor & had a mixed experience.
It took 1 hour & 5 minutes to receive our plates, which is quite long - especially during Suhoor when timing is important. There were also a couple of mistakes with our order. We asked for multigrain bread but were served white bread instead, & the white bread was dry, almost as if it had been toasted & left aside. The potatoes on the plate seemed dry & not very fresh, & the sunny-side-up eggs looked like they may have been sitting before being served. I had the steak, which was okay, but overall the plate felt that it was put aside & lost it's freshness.
That said, Zainab, our waitress, was excellent - kind, professional, & clearly doing her best. She was the only waitress handling a full crowd, with just one chef & one bus girl supporting. The issue seemed to be understaffing rather than lack of effort. Because of her service, we still left an 18% tip.
Based on the food & wait time alone, this would have been a one-star experience. However, because of Zainab's service & attitude, I'm giving three stars.
This place has potential, but better staffing & kitchen coordination - especially during busy Suhoor nights - would make a big difference.
Ordered on uber & half the food was missing & what we did receive was not at all as pictured. Eggs Benedict supposed to come with English muffin but instead we received untoasted bread & tiny serving of potatoes & salad
Went for the first time. Might return. The place looks great. Service was ok. I gave 3 for food because some was great (soups) but some was disapointing (winter menu).
The eggs with pastrami was good but the out come was not as shown on picture & was over priced. 23$ for 3 eggs & 6 small slices of pastrami.... Oh sorry there was also some scalions.
See for yourself in the pictures
The pain doré frenchstatic was very disappointing :( no mention of rose water on the menu but first bite was filled with rose taste. I hate that taste feels like eating soap. Never would have ordered if i had known. Thankfully it wasnt throughout so i was able to avoid the rose if i ddnt touch the toppings...!
Didnt return it, i hate wasting food. But i did inform the servor of my confusion as i did not feel like i had received what i ordered. Too many différences.
As for the meal itself. It was an odd overwhelming 6 inch thick slice of cold bread. I dont know about you but I've always had warm pain doré. I would have much prefered if they have sliced that in 3 & gave me a stack of actual french toast
It is served in a hot skillet but the ice cream on top & the fact that you have to go through 6 inches of bread before reaching the heat of the skillet didnt feel like i was eating pain doré at all.
The menu mentioned cinnamon caramel creamcheese & cookie crumble. I didnt taste or see any of that!
It did have generous blueberry compote & some ice cream.
We also had the manakeesh zaatar which was good.
I do not recommand the winter menu which i consider false advertisment
But I would recommand to try this restaurant. Had a good expérience overall.
Had a reservation for 6 people
Arrived on time ✅?
Was greeted & seated right away ✅?
Took 35-45 mins before someone came to take our order after we were seated...thats also after I spoke to one of the waiters to send someone because we have been waiting for a while. ❌?
Ordered the shakshuka & eggstatic steak & eggs with a vanilla foam matcha latte. ✅?
The shakshuka wasn't good, more tangy than anything & the bread (pita) that was given with it was not fresh at all, it was actually like hard rock. Asked the waiter to have it replaced after showing him & he agreed.❌?
The eggstatic steak & eggs barely had steaks & the potatoes were overcooked & bland.❌?
As for the vanilla foam matcha latte, it had be redone twice & it was still not good & didn't have any foam at all. More diluted in ice....this was removed from our bill at the end.
I think people are just being super nice & not coming back or just deciding to keep quiet because theres not alot of halal brunch places or are just being fake with the rating.❌?
Overall, it wasn't a good experience for our group & we won't be returning.
Maybe we were unlucky? Who knows.
Give it a try & see for yourself.
