EVA's is widely regarded as a standout brunch destination in Montreal, celebrated for its stylish, trendy atmosphere and highly photogenic decor. Many patrons rave about the quality of the food, with specific highlights including the pancake bites, chicken and waffles, and various sandwich offerings like the Eggslut and MTL Cheesesteak. While the overall vibe is consistently praised for being lively and fun, some visitors find the music volume can be quite loud and suggest that reservations are essential due to the restaurant's popularity. Customer service experiences are varied, with many guests commending the attentive and welcoming staff, while others express frustration over inconsistent service speeds, perceived high prices, and limited coffee options. Despite mixed feelings regarding value and wait times, most reviewers agree that the unique environment and delicious menu make it a place worth experiencing at least once.
Went for brunch on a Sunday morning with a friend. Even though we didn't have a reservation & the place was packed, we managed to get two seats at the bar pretty quickly, which was a nice surprise. The decor is stylish, the vibe is lively, the staff was nice, & the music was great.
Food-wise, everything we ordered was tasty & came out fast. However, I was disappointed to learn they don't have an espresso machine. So all coffee-based drinks are made with filtered coffee. At the price point of the menu, I expected better in that department. Also, a simple side of fruit will cost around $17, which felt excessive.
Overall, I'm glad I tried it once, but I'm not sure I'd go back.
I'm not sure how to start but I do know how to describe the overall experience: PERFECT🌷
We went for a girl's brunch & birthday & it did not disappoint, the food was absolutely delicious & filling.
The eggslut sandwich was amazing & very cheesy, the waffle with the fried chicken was super crunchy & yummy, & the additional portion of waffles was such a great way to end the brunch with a touch of sweetness & very light.
Special mention to the Pornstar Martini, it was out of this world & overall refreshing for a warm morning, it was delicious & I would go back just for it. It didn't feel too strong & complimented the rest of the brunch perfectly. The bartender was also very kind & made every drink with care 🌷
The restaurant itself is just so aesthetic & clean, the music is such a vibe. Just be sure to make a reservation since they're very often fully booked ( understandably so! )
We went to Eva's because we were attracted to the aesthetics of the pictures they shared online. The place looks really good. The staff provide good service. The food & drinks were lackluster for the prices. The iced coffee came in a long glass that contained so little liquid that it could be finished with 2 good gulps. It costs more than 10$ though. I ordered a breakfast sandwich priced like an entire meal. When I asked what came with the sandwich, the server told me nothing. You would think maybe the food is very good & that excuses the price. But no, it wasn't bad, but not a full meal price good. They serve sandwiches that could've been served by food trucks, not to say they were bad, but not worth the price.
Fries were good.

If you're looking for a brunch spot with great vibes, delicious food, & a bit of soul, Eva's is definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended!
Overhyped "tiktock/insta" brunch place. Had made a reservation for Saturday morning with deposit required in case of no show, which is completely understandable. Was very excited to try out their waffle chicken plus their eva pancake. Upon ordering, server told us both of the items were not available, waffle machine is broken & pancakes are discontinued...( which we saw on instagram) Waffles & fried chiken were their signature plate....... What came down to the 2/5 stars was this eggplant dish. This dish is like, drinking oil. The eggplant was over-drenched with oil including the nan bread. Ate the 1/4 of the plate, the only thing acceptable was the boiled eggs. We are super disappointed in this overpriced brunch spot. The crepe bites definitely saved this review from getting a zero.
I had such a lovely time at Eva's. The service was amazing, the staff were friendly, the environment was aesthetically pleasing & beautiful. I had the house lemonade to drink & I ordered the chicken & waffles. The waffles are AMAZING!!!!! & they have this delicious butter that you put on top, the chicken tenders were juicy & the coating was crunchy & well seasoned. I also had the pancake stack & that was delicious too.
Easily one of the dopest spots in town. Food , Vibes , Music , comfort, service...All incredibly strong. I'd highly reccomend the brunch & the lunch ! I can't even pin point one item. I'll just say you must try it all. Owner sources local quality ingredients daily so you can really taste n feel the passion. Plus on nights you feeling frisky & want to get out, on select evenings they do R&B nights with immaculate cocktails n sensational desserts. Perfect for date nights or going out with the crew. I'm hoping they re open for dinner one day but for now ill be there catching meals , drinks as often as possible! If you like food with off the chart flavors & Vibes to match ...Hit up EVA's. ✌🏽
We went in for some drinks around 9ish. Host told us it would be tough to get a seat for my party of three. The place was nearly empty. He offered us to sit at the empty bar, but wouldn't allow us to take the corner where the three of us could talk to each other. It was to "make room for others". The server was super friendly but the vibes were bad. So we went for a drink somewhere else nearby. As we passed by on our way home around 10:30ish, the place was still empty ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Came for brunch with a decent sized group for brunch (6 people). Everyone ordered drinks. I had an espresso martini & it was maybe one of the best espresso martinis I've ever had. To eat, I got the McLovin, which was so sweet & savoury, & absolutely delicious! Our waiter, Tim, took such great care of us. He gave us world class service. We felt so welcomed that we almost didn't even want to leave when the meal was over. Thanks for everything Tim. We'll be back 1000%
