One of the best services we experienced in NYC! We stayed at the Aliz Hotel, which is about a 5-minute walk from Aleef Cafe. On the first day, we decided to have breakfast there because of the great reviews we saw on Google. Over the next three days, we kept coming back because of the excellent service and amazing food. The owner is attentive and friendly. Angie, one of the staff members, is absolutely incredible! From the very first day, she greeted us with a big smile. She is extremely kind,
Beyond a great experience.. not only aesthetic.. this 18 year old establishment lets you know why they have succeeded and will continue to. I walk in with my husband and his mother (her first time in nyc).. and the help, immense.. drinks were made exquisitely and promptly, along with the food! The gentleman at the front even heated up my husbands old pizza!!! They don’t even sell pizza! Unbelievable service.. not just for nyc. Even offered to refill our iced coffee on the way out along with hand
Loved it here! Angie was amazing and so kind. She was really helpful and quick. The breakfast bagels were really yummy!
