Elite Café, conveniently located on the popular Main Street in Flushing Queens, opened its doors in 2013. Ever since, the dairy cafe stands out amongst the many surrounding eateries. The décor is clean, neat, and unpretentious yet appealing to the eye with interesting artwork on the walls. A great place to catch up with a friend, have a business meeting or enjoy any meal with the family. Owner Benjamin Haimoff, who resides both in the US and Israel, took over Elite Cafe in September 2016. He wanted to bring high quality dairy cuisine to Queens and creates all the menu items and recipes himself. The food cooked and served at Elite Café, is the ideal combination of Israeli favorites with an American touch.
Their vast menu includes everything you can imagine from a dairy restaurant. If you want that authentic Israeli Shakshuka, order Elite Cafe’s “Shakshuka Morning” dish: poached eggs simmered in tomato sauce with peppers, onions, and jalapeno and served with coffee or tea and orange juice. They are also well known for their popular Avocado Eggrolls. Cooked to a golden crisp on the outside and bursting with flavor on the inside. Their ravioli is an outstanding choice from the pasta section of the menu. You have a choice of several fillings such as cheese and sweet potato as well as a choice of sauces like Alfredo, alla vodka, pesto and marinara. Let’s not forget to mention, the Stuffed Crust Pizza is a top seller, loaded with mozzarella cheese and bursting with flavor. Elite cafe has a sushi bar as well with an abundance of options. To end your meal on the right note, Elite Cafe has several desserts including crepes and waffles made fresh on site. So if you want the best of both worlds, make sure to visit Elite Cafe the next time you’re in Queens.
