Good food, but untrustworthy. Left my phone for 5 minutes nobody sitting near me and it was gone.

The Kuykendal location has always been my favorite but obviously the chefs has changed along with the food. Not the same recipe

Great food and atmosphere

I love everything about Eva's! Excellent food and service!

Eva’s isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a culinary love letter wrapped in tortillas and sealed with a smile. I ordered the pollo special and asked for it with a little extra heat… and honey, they delivered. The spice was chef’s kiss perfection—bold but not brutal, just how I like it.

The waiters? Sweet, attentive, and genuinely kind. You’d think they were hosting you in their abuela’s kitchen. Prices? So reasonable I had to double-check the bill like… is this a prank?

Topped it all off with a creamy horchata that made me want to dance a little cumbia in my seat. Trust me—Eva’s is that feel-good spot you didn’t know you needed.

Seemed dirty was served with a broken glass was plastic but still broke. Wouldn't recommend eating here.

Above average TexMex at a fair price.

I'm so glad to be back in Houston. My need for good Mexican food satisfying every time.

Went there today. Great food and polite.

Definitely adjusted the seasoning and spices for non-hispanic crowds. The word gravy shows up all over the menu. The cheese gravy is definitely Rico nacho cheese sauce. And yes, plates come out hot, but they should still be cooking the food till dry on the expo counter.
