“One of the best meals I've had in Santa Cruz in a very long time. So many tourist quality crappy restaurants here, This was a great surprise. Took away one star only because they leave the front door open and is pretty cold outside in Capitola in the evening. My wife was cold during the entire meal.“

“My friend and I had breakfast at Evarits’s Comal this morning and it was FABULOUS! My veggie eggs Benedict was perfectly cooked, with one of the best hollandaise sauces I’ve ever tasted. The fruit accompaniment was delicious and fresh. Service was on point. I even got serenaded and served a yummy dessert when they found out it was my birthday. I wholly recommend this excellent restaurant!“
