Efes Plus

You'll find Efes Plus tucked along King Street where Richmond actually gets interesting—past the chain restaurants and into proper neighbourhood eating. Walk in and it feels like you've stumbled into somewhere that cares about doing one thing well rather than chasing trends. The meze spread is the real draw here: order a few plates and you've got yourself an evening. The grilled meats come proper charred, none of that apologetic cooking, and the place has that warm, lived-in feeling you get when locals have been coming back for years because the food's consistent and unpretentious.
