At The Efendi Restaurant in Warsaw, at 56A Puławska Street, we don’t just nourish the soul with authentic dishes—we invite you to discover the flavors that have accompanied Turkish gatherings for centuries. One of those is rakı—a unique, anise-flavored spirit that not only warms the body, but sets the tone for the evening. Today, we’d love to tell you more about this remarkable tradition and why you should try it right here with us.Rakı – What Is It, Really?Rakı is Turkey’s national alcoholic drink, often nicknamed “lion’s milk” due to its milky-white appearance when mixed with water. Distilled from grapes and infused with anise, rakı has a distinctive, bold flavor like nothing else. At our restaurant, we serve rakı the traditional way—chilled, in special glasses, often accompanied by classic mezze.On our menu you’ll find: Yeni Rakı – the most popular brand, known for its smooth yet rich flavor. Tekirdağ Rakısı – considered one of the most refined varieties of rakı in Turkey. How Is Rakı Enjoyed? Slowly and with RespectRakı isn’t a drink you gulp down. It’s a beverage meant to celebrate the moment. In Turkey, it’s most often shared during evening meals—especially those featuring seafood, grilled meats, or mezze. It’s sipped slowly, with conversation, flavor, and emotion.Traditional rakı etiquette: A small, tall glass is essential. First, pour the rakı, then add water—typically in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio. Ice? Optional. Purists prefer it without. Always with food and company—rakı without mezze is like tea without a teapot. At The Efendi, we’ve created the perfect atmosphere to enjoy this tradition authentically—with warm lighting, Turkish music, delicious food, and an inviting vibe.Rakı & Food – Perfect Pairings from The Efendi’s MenuWe understand that a spirit like rakı truly shines when paired with the right dishes. Here are some of our recommended combinations: Levrek Izgara – grilled sea bass, lightly seasoned and served with grilled vegetables. The freshness of the fish perfectly balances rakı’s anise note. Karides Güveç – shrimp baked with tomatoes, garlic, and cheese. A flavorful partner to rakı. Tavuk Şiş – grilled chicken skewers marinated in herbs and spices. Light, yet full of flavor. Meze Set – hummus, ezme, muhammara, haydari—classic Turkish starters that pair naturally with rakı. As they say in Turkey, “rakı opens conversations and flavor.”Rakı & Atmosphere – More Than Just a DrinkWe believe rakı is more than a spirit—it’s an experience. In Turkish culture, drinking rakı is a ritual that brings people together, encourages honest conversation, laughter, reflection, and connection. It’s not a party drink—it’s for evenings you want to remember.That’s why we focus not only on the quality of the rakı itself, but on the setting—mood lighting, the aroma of the grill, the sounds of Turkish melodies. It all makes a rakı night at The Efendi something truly special.Not a Fan of Rakı? Explore Regional Flavors from Our BarWhile rakı is a classic and a proud symbol of Turkish tradition, we understand it’s not for everyone. That’s why our drink menu also includes flavorful, authentic alternatives that perfectly match our cuisine.Here are some great options: Wines from Anatolia Turkey has an ancient winemaking tradition. We’ve curated a selection of red and white wines from regions like Cappadocia, Thrace, and the Aegean Anatolia. Perfect with our grilled meats, mezze, and cheeses. Kavaklıdere Yakut – semi-dry and fruity, ideal with lamb dishes. Angora – light and citrusy, great with seafood like our Levrek Izgara. Efes – Turkey’s Iconic Beer If rakı feels too strong and you’re after something cool and refreshing, try Efes Pilsener—Turkey’s most beloved beer. Smooth and lightly hoppy, it pairs wonderfully with grilled wings, skewers, or pide. We serve it chilled, in a classic mug—perfect for summer evenings and casual get-togethers. Şalgam – A Bold, Non-Alcoholic Classic For those skipping alcohol but seeking bold, regional flavors, we recommend şalgam—a slightly fermented drink made from black carrots and turnips, popular in southern Turkey. Spicy, sour, and refreshing, it’s an excellent pairing with rich grilled dishes. You’ll either love it… or need to try it a second time. But it’s worth it—a truly authentic part of Turkish dining culture. Cocktails with an Oriental Twist Our bar also crafts signature cocktails inspired by Turkish flavors. Think fresh herbs, spices, citrus, hints of pomegranate or rose. Perfect for those who want something creative yet classic. Whatever you choose—rakı, wine, beer, or a non-alcoholic option—each drink is thoughtfully selected to complement our cuisine and elevate your experience. We don’t just feed you—we help you celebrate. And that’s what we invite you to do, every evening.From Turkey to Warsaw – A Tradition That ConnectsFor many of our guests, rakı is their first encounter with Turkish spirits. For others, it brings back memories of holidays on the Bosphorus or dinners with friends in Izmir. We’re proud to be part of those stories and to offer something so special—and still so little known in Poland.Our restaurant is more than just a place to eat—it’s a place to immerse yourself in culture, feel the atmosphere of a faraway land, and discover how important shared meals truly are.The Efendi Restaurant in Warsaw – More Than Just DinnerWith us, it’s not just about food or drink—it’s about experience. Our dishes, drinks, and ambiance tell a story you can be part of. If you want an evening that’s more than just “a meal out,” try rakı, order your favorite mezze, and let the conversation flow. That’s when the most beautiful memories are made. We also invite you to follow us on Instagram, where we share snapshots of daily life at The Efendi—photos of rakı with almonds, steaming plates of grilled fish, and of course, our smiling guests. They are, after all, our best advertisement.

Can You Eat with Your Eyes? At The Efendi, We Believe You Can.Every day, we strive to prove that food isn’t just about taste and aroma—it’s a true form of art that speaks to the senses from the very first glance at the plate. That’s why every dish at our Turkish restaurant is not only a culinary delight but also an aesthetic masterpiece.In this post, we want to take you behind the scenes of our kitchen and show you how the magic happens. How tradition meets modernity. And why so many of our guests say the same thing: “Everything here looks like a picture… and tastes even better.”Plate Aesthetics – The First Delight Before the First BiteWhen a server brings your dish to the table, before you even lift your fork, your eyes take in the full composition—colors, textures, contrasts. At The Efendi, nothing is accidental—every mint leaf, lemon slice, and drop of sauce has its place. Everything is arranged in a harmonious, appetizing whole.Whether it’s a plate of grilled dishes—juicy Adana kebab served on warm lavash with grilled pepper and sumac onion—or a classic Turkish breakfast with a selection of cheeses, olives, tomatoes, and fresh bread—it all looks like a small work of art.Inspired by Turkish Bazaars and HomesThe presentation of our dishes draws from deeply rooted Turkish culinary traditions. In the bazaars of Gaziantep or Istanbul, you’re met with a kaleidoscope of colors and aromas, and each dish has its own personality—that's exactly where we draw our inspiration. For us, it’s important that our guests feel like they’re stepping into a family celebration at a Turkish grandma’s house—only here, form walks hand-in-hand with elegance.Soup Elevated – More Than Just a StarterWhile soup is often seen as a warm-up, we at The Efendi treat it as a full expression of flavor. Our classic mercimek—a creamy lentil soup—is served with a dash of paprika oil and fresh lemon, which brightens the dish’s color. Another guest favorite is the chilled cacık soup made with yogurt, cucumber, and mint!Main Dishes – Tradition with a Modern TwistMain courses are the heart of any dinner. At our restaurant, we focus on grilled dishes, because we believe that fire brings out the best in every ingredient. But that doesn’t mean we stick only to the classics. Every plate that leaves our kitchen is a balance between the familiar and the surprising.For example, our Kuzu Pirzola—lamb chops—are served with stewed eggplant and caramelized onions, adding not only flavor but also rich, vibrant colors. Vegetables are arranged like brushstrokes—everything has structure, contrast, and rhythm.Breakfast – A Morning SpectacleMany of our guests come specifically for breakfast, which in Turkish culture is a long, festive ritual. At The Efendi Restaurant, we serve breakfast as rich sets: with spreads, olives, various cheeses, bread, jams, and of course—freshly brewed tea in traditional glassware.It’s not just a feast—it’s a performance. Every element on the table is thoughtfully arranged, served on hand-decorated platters, in a warm, oriental setting.Desserts & Details – Little MasterpiecesWe can’t talk about presentation without mentioning our desserts. What would a Turkish menu be without golden baklava, served with ice cream and a sprinkle of pistachio dust? Or the stretchy, crispy künefe, drawing the eye with the sizzle of hot cheese and a golden web of kadaif pastry?These aren’t just desserts—they are the sweet final notes of an evening. Each plate is carefully balanced—fresh fruits, herbs, sometimes a delicate rose mousse or a drizzle of honey—all to ensure dessert is a highlight, not just an ending.The Efendi in Warsaw and Beyond – A Kitchen That Draws EyesThough we’re located in Mysiadło, our guests travel from all over Warsaw and even other cities to taste our food—and see what the buzz is about.

At The Efendi, we don’t just serve food—we invite you to experience something authentic: true Turkish hospitality.Efendi – More Than a Restaurant, It’s a Way of LifeThe word “efendi” in Turkish refers to someone respected, courteous, and full of class.

Perfect for a quick lunch or a relaxing evening.Turkish Breakfasts – A Feast from the MorningOne of the most beautiful rituals in Turkey is the morning breakfast. At The Efendi, we celebrate this custom with great respect. Our menu features rich sets with olives, cheeses, honey, eggs, menemen, and freshly baked bread made in-house.Breakfast is a time when everything slows down. It’s more than just the start of the day—it’s a moment to be together.Grilled Dishes – The Pride of Anatolian CuisineThe grill is sacred in Turkish homes.

Each piece of meat is marinated for hours in a blend of spices from various regions of Turkey.That way, dining with us means discovering the flavors of Gaziantep, Adana, or Şanlıurfa—without leaving Warsaw.Soup with SoulNo Turkish meal is complete without soup. It’s often the opening of a feast, but in our version, it can be the star of the evening. Our lentil soup, seasoned with cumin and mint, or our creamy yogurt soup—each takes you to a different part of Turkey.We encourage you to begin your culinary journey with a soup—warming, aromatic, and homemade.Turkish Cuisine – Culture and FlavorTurkish cuisine is not just food—it’s a true culture. A heritage of many civilizations—Byzantine, Persian, Middle Eastern. At The Efendi, we strive to preserve and share this heritage through our dishes, atmosphere, and our approach to guests.Menu Highlights at The Efendi – Breakfasts, Soups, Grilled Dishes and MoreAt The Efendi, we’ve made sure our menu reflects the full spectrum of flavors Turkish cuisine has to offer.
