EVA's best feature is no doubt the design of the space. It is unique with it's rounded columns, modern-industrial grey tones & intricate art pieces that adorn the restaurant. The service here was friendly & cheerful. My server didn't really interact with me after I was served, but I was sitting by the bar & the girl who was working there happily engaged me in conversation, which is always appreciated when I'm dining solo.
I went for the skytower plate, which I have mixed feelings on. The feature of the dish, the mini pancakes, were superb. I was unsure about the savory butter they were using as pancakes are sweet, however it worked very well. The texture of the pancakes was immaculate. 1-2 more could have been added to really justify the dish's name however. The other parts of the plate were pretty standard. The one part that did disappoint me is that I like my eggs poached & they told me they don't do poached eggs. This is the first time I've heard this at a brunch restaurant, & for how well this place presents itself I was surprised at the limitation. I have to say that the quality of the dish did not justify the price at all. They need to have at least one more item on this plate. I did not have a beverage, just this place & my bill was around $35. The portion-to-price ratio here is a weak point- brunch is meant to be filling, especially a plate like this.
Eva's in St. Henry is a must-visit! The food is incredible, & the service is top-notch-friendly & attentive. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcome. Whether it's brunch or cocktails, they deliver every time. Highly recommend!
The vibrant atmosphere really sets the tone, with great music & local art adding to the lively, welcoming vibe. The food is next level - they serve up some seriously delicious soul food with a unique twist. Every dish is packed with flavor & creativity, making for a brunch that's both satisfying & memorable. The drinks were equally impressive, with a fantastic mix of refreshing options & creative cocktails. The staff was super friendly & attentive, ensuring a great experience from start to finish. If you're looking for a brunch spot with great vibes, delicious food, & a bit of soul, Eva's is definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended!
Bonjour,
Nous sommes venus avec ma copine pour brunch/ déjeuner le vendredi 21 février, car elle avait particulièrement apprécié la place quelques mois auparavant.
Néanmoins nous n'avons pas trouvé ce qu'elle avait apprécié la dernière fois…
31$ pour le HighTower soit 2 oeufs brouillés, 3 petites saucisses puis 4 mini pain cakes. 15$ pour un burger au poulet frit, indiqué comme le plat le plus épicé sur la carte, mais hormis quelques grain de poivres, il n'y a rien d'épicé dans ce burger. En bref nous avons été déçu du repas, ce qu'il contenait ainsi que la qualité des aliments.
Pour la même qualité, aller dans une chaîne telle que l'Oeufrier coûtera moins cher & nous comblera plus.
Sans oublier la poubelle à l'entrée du restaurant, laissant à peine l'espace pour ouvrir la porte d'entrée…
Points positifs: Le restaurant est beau puis le service répond aux attentes d'un service de base.
Another 5 star experience in Montreal. Very friendly staff, you should reserve ahead though, very busy!! Food was speedy & so delicious. We would return for sure. We had the waffles & full breakfast & the mini pancake bites (these are to die for, they melt in your mouth with flavour) also the music is great I was jamming with all the tunes as we enjoyed a family brunch!
Heard good things, but was disappointed, definitely over hyped.
The good:
The food was good. The chairs were comfy, tables aren't too close together. Ambiance is generally nice.
The bad:
While the waffles are good, they don't don't come with syrup or anything. The portions are small. The cheese steak is the smallest cheesesteak I've ever seen. The eggslut doesn't come with any sides, just a sandwich on a plate. Felt very expensive for what you get.
Food was slow. Service was slow. Asked for ketchup, saw the server go get ketchup, then play on his phone for 5min before bringing it to our table.
Overall left feeling like we paid too much for a very mid experience.
