Had a beautiful dinner for two, ordered the wings, quesabirria tacos and the chili watermelon margarita, all exceptional choices! Definitely going to be my regular go to spot, our server was lovely and the manager checked up on us as well, giving us amazing service and a welcoming atmosphere!

Not sure… service was great but this is our second time going and it takes so long for food to arrive. Had reservations at 10am. Food arrived at 10:30/40. I wish I can say yes absolutely but not worth the wait. Food was slightly cold. Great environment good vibes, but needs just a tad improvement on time for food service.

Waitress and manager were very rude, rushed us, and told a few of our friends that they couldn’t order because we already had 6 pending entrees. We reserved for a party of 11 so this should have been stated to us. They had a very passive aggressive attitude and made everyone feel uncomfortable. Not to mention today is my friends birthday, so we were looking forward to trying out this restaurant. I arrived a little later than the group and I wasn’t even acknowledged until I stopped the waitress and requested my drink.

I visited Evaga Desert Kitchen recently with a party, and unfortunately, the service was a major letdown. While the rest of my group had their orders taken and served, my order was somehow skipped entirely despite 6 other entries going in before me. To make matters worse, the server eventually came by to ask if she should 'cancel' the order—an order that had never been taken in the first place. Sitting with an empty plate while the rest of the table eats is never a good experience. I hope management can look into their ordering system and staff communication.

Takes too long to get drinks and food. Food is nothing special and portions too small.

Great service and excellent food. I actually recommend the breakfast burger. The only con was that I wanted to try the full menu but we were limited to the brunch menu (maybe due to Valentines Day?). We will definitely try this place again.

This place doesn’t have a “month waiting list” because the food is frozen, from the pizza to the burger pattie.

How some people can upload fake reviews is beyond me!

Yesterday, my daughters and I attended Brunch with Santa, and I want to start with the positives because there were many.

Atmosphere & décor: 10/10. Absolutely beautiful. Whoever decorated this place deserves a huge shout-out — easily one of the most gorgeous spots in town. The outdoor area was especially lovely, and overall the space has so much potential.

Santa himself was also a 10/10. He was amazing — fun, interactive, and truly wonderful with the kids. He was definitely the highlight of the experience.

That said, for an event specifically marketed as a family/kids brunch, the menu and service didn’t quite match the concept. The service was very mid, and the menu felt more geared toward adults. There was no kids’ menu, no fun or themed pancakes (like character or face pancakes), and surprisingly, no hot chocolate. For a brunch spot, only offering regular coffee — and then placing an entire carton of half-and-half on the table when asking for cream — felt a bit off.

I truly loved the setting and believe this place has incredible potential. If you plan future events like Brunch with Santa, it would be great to see more kid-focused touches: a children’s menu, fun food options, hot chocolate, and perhaps a few more interactive activities for kids.

I’d love to see similar themed events for Easter or Halloween — with a bit more focus on the little ones — because I would absolutely come back.

Food was okay but lukewarm to cold. The service is definitely lacking. There are better tasting, friendlier, and local family-owned places nearby

Took over an hour for our food. Asked for water and sour cream three times and it never came. Ordered a kids meal and didn't get the fries had to ask twice for those. My $20 burger showed up and tasted like cardboard. My wife never even got her food after an hour and a half. Had to hunt down the waitress and had to get the check ourselves from the bartender.

I was a bit underwhelmed to be honest. The food was very good, kudos there! However, the service wasn't great. We made a reservation, but it didn't appear like we were expected. I hope the service is better next time.
