The hostess and waiting staff give off these attitudes that make you want to leave. But the food makes up for their attitudes. We had a wonderful meal n a wonderful time amongst ourselves despite the "tudes" - would definitely go back. Hopefully it will be to friendlier faces :-p

Love it! Great neighborhood spot :)

Small place not small prices. Kind of pricy considering the size of the portions. Food was OK but nothing special. Very cramped and noisy. My table had trouble talking to each other. I had a hangar steak. Others had the mushroom crusted chicken. Two small pieces of chicken was all you got. Certainly not worth going out of you way. But I least I got a parking spot.

This is a very comfy, warm restaurant with very attentive service and great food! The menu is quite creative and the portions are just right. Definitely recommend.

We live a few blocks away and have always seen this place crowded and have heard good things from friends who dined here years ago. We weren't sure if it, like many other places in the hood now, was just a scene or actually still served decent food. So, we decided to try it on a whim and were grossly disappointed. Unlike others, we found the service okay, but the food ranged from mediocre to horrible. We decided to share several apps and skip the fish/meat entrees (chilean sea bass, really?) The extra virgin salad and fritto misto were halfway decent (arugula, cucumber and avocado were fresh and nicely dressed. the fritto misto was hot and crisp). Sadly, the other items we ordered were actually borderline inedible. The crab cakes had no taste whatsoever, were horribly overcooked (their exterior was a crispy dark brown), and the sauces that came with them resembled baby food in both taste and texture. The scallops were gummy, the bacon wrapping them was rubbery, and the potato latke under them was a lead bomb. Both of these dishes actually made me think of something one would feed a pet, and not necessarily their own pet. The truffled mac and cheese tart lacked any composition- it was as if someone took kraft microwaved mac 'n cheese, sprinkled truffles on it and then stuck a pastry in. Overall, the food was a failure. With so many better restaurants in the neighborhood it is perplexing why so many people dine here night after night. It is a sad testament to the neighborhood.

What a wonderful meal! Thank you for the attention to detail. We had a great meal and good time with friends we hadn't seen in years. We will comeback!

was 3rd time at EV. 1st time was a knockout, but it was summer, we brought the dog and were able to score a seat outside. 2nd time with OOtowners and they would have been pleased with just about anything. 3rd time was a total drag. service blew. atmos was pretencious and my coffee was cold. and why is it so hard to find cream rather than milk for coffee? Basically a standard brunch spot- nothing wildly outrageous. just overpriced eggs benedict that are served over pieces of bacon, instead of Canadian Bacon... lame. Get the french toast...
