Eve & Me
The food was good. Music was alright. However, it took a long time to place the order. It was almost impossible to get refills on drinks. Couldn’t get the waitress attention, and the place wasn’t even crowded. I wasn’t pleased with the automatic 18% tip included on the bill. Definitely wouldn’t have left 18% for terrible service.

The location is beautiful, good music. Definitely needs to change the recipe for the drinks, I try 3 different type of margarita, and a long island ice tea and it was horrible. The food needs better cooking my wife order a churrasco and ask for it well done and it was row.

Everything is so good! Drinks are on point. They have an amazing brunch package for 28 dollars with an hour and a half of unlimited mimosas. Food is so darn good! Friendly service and the brunch seems to be undiscovered yet, hardly no one around at 11am. The brunch is from 11am to 3pm every Saturday and Sunday. Other than brunch, their regular menu is just as great if not better. Do not pass this place up, it’s too good.

Good upbeat music. Not too loud where you cannot talk with the people at your table. Cocktails were delicious. Food was fresh and yummy. Only wish it the food service could be slightly faster considering it was barely 25% full when we arrived.

Great food. Brunch is $28 for an appetizer, an entrée, and a desert, including 1.5 hours of bottomless mimosas. And it is totally a hidden gem! Not too busy until around 2, outdoor seating that’s cute and comfy, and great service.

My sweet friend had her birthday brunch here. The bartenders are sweet. But one of then forgot my appetizer and said it was given to me. Thank goodness I had three eyewitnesses to vouch for me that I did not receive it. It was then giving to me but to go, which I was happy with. Before your appetizers they give your small cup thing of syrup and a hard cake biscuit thing. It was hard and kinda dry. It just was not need period to be given to anyone. Just my opinion. There is a picture of it half eaten. Besides that the $25 brunch it a super sweet deal. My entree was very very good plus bottomless mimosas until 3pm! You get your money worth and more. I would totally go back.

When I asked about gluten free options they were very helpful in identifying GF menu items and communicating with the kitchen about my allergy.
