What Robin Hikage doesn't like about Effie's:
Overpriced, mid food. I got Effie's Chicken which tasted like reheated Tyson's chicken strips with a mediocre spice blend rubbed on it.

I only mention this because despite making a reservation the staff acted like they weren't prepared for me... View all feedback. What Sunshine Haynie likes about Effie's:

Took a friend there for her first time. It's a B... View all feedback.

Our meal was pretty disastrous. They were either terribly understaffed or incompetent. It took more than 30 minutes to get menus, even longer for water and wine...
