The aws efs describe-file-systems command can be used to list the Elastic File Systems (EFS) that have been created.
aws efs describe-file-systems
And here is an example of how to limit the output using the --query option.
aws efs describe-file-systems --query 'FileSystems[?Name==`my-efs`]'
Something like this should be returned.
