First time here and it will not be my last. I arrived right before the evening crowd and enjoyed my time here. The buns were nice sized, fresh and warm. I also loved the butter, garlic and whatever oil they used nice flavor. I ordered the salmon salad prepared well, fresh ingredients. One of the owners checked in and let me know that on some Saturdays they have live music Frank Sinatra ballads. Upstairs is reserved for private parties and groups of 20. Carlie my server was attentive, engaging and professional. read more

I recently dined at DeEva for dinner, where I encountered a mixed culinary experience. While some dishes showcased exceptional flavor, others were merely satisfactory. The stuffed mushroom was outstanding and my cioppino was enjoyable. However the calamari lacked warm and flavor and the house bread suffered similarly. The Marsala somewhat bland. The utensils I was given were not properly cleaned. On a positive note, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the restaurant's atmosphere was beautifully designed. read more

If you are looking for decadent Italian dishes, look no further than Deeva Kitchen and Bar. The food here was very filling and the service was friendly and attentive. One of the unique aspects of this restaurant is the unusual curved dining area. It's not too often you dine in spaces that are semi-circular, so that's an interesting draw. We started our meal with the Bruschetta Caprese. It was good- slightly above average. It was missing that oomph to take it to the next level. For an entree, I had the Decedent Ravioli Aragosta, which is a lobster ravioli. It was different from other lob tabs I've had before in that it was swimming in a brandy cream sauce, as opposed to a pink sauce. It was fine, but I think the sauce was a bit too rich. A bit of tomato would have tempered it to lighten it up. Seeing as the meal was so heavy, I didn't save room for dessert, nonetheless, I still want to come back to try other dishes because the food is a good value and many things on the menu sounded great. read more

If you're in search of an authentic Italian dining experience nestled right in the heart West Plano, look no further than DeEva. When Dennis's parents decided to retire from Amore Dennis and his wife Eva took over the restaurant and revamped the inside and the menu. The ambiance is fresh bright and inviting with a nice bar and several Tables inside and out. The staff and service were exceptional. Warm, friendly, and attentive, they go out of their way to make your dining experience truly memorable. From knowledgeable waitstaff who are more than happy to offer recommendations, to the speedy service, every detail is attended to with a smile. The menu is fabulous-- way too many items look amazing . We started our night with two glasses of wine and truffle Fries that were out of this world. For mains, we had the Saltimbocca - a veal scaloppini with prosciutto and sage in a white wine an butter sauce and the linguini Frutti di Mare-- with clams mussels calamari and shrimp---they were both short of perfection. Special mention must go to the Osso Buco and the Red Snapper that is on our list to try. Despite the high quality of the food and service --entrees remain reasonably priced-- everything is under $30 and many items are under $20.Portions are generous, and you certainly get value for money. DeEva is a gem in our neighborhood that offers an unparalleled Italian dining experience. Whether you're a fan of classic Italian dishes or looking to try something new, this restaurant will not disappoint. It's the perfect place to relax, enjoy great food, and feel right at home. Whether you're a local or just passing through, make sure to stop in for a meal that will transport you straight to the heart of Italy. Buon appetito! read more

Friday night 6:00pm and the place was empty. Still wanted to give it a shot. Caesar salad was fresh and tasty. Saltimbocca was dry/stale. Server was new and had not been trained on wine; she insisted a glass of white was Cabernet Sauvignon. Everything else she did was exceptional and attentive. A larger man with shorts and a tee shirt (GM or Owner???... looked like he'd just come from a gym) came by our table after we had eaten to ask how everything was but did not engage us at all in a meaningful was as great restauranteurs would. Henry's cappuccino pie for dessert. Nice looking place but we will not return sadly. read more

The food was fantastic! My family and I are definitely coming back. Btw, their meatballs were unbelievably delicious

I have been in the restaurant industry a very long time. Because of this I have been fortunate to be able to eat dinner in restaurants every night. For decades. I have a huge data base of experiences at all price points and cuisines. I have learned that beyond food quality (which you expect to be good) and ambiance (which you hope is good) one quick way to determine the hospitality of a restaurant is where you are seated. If you are on a 30 minute wait for a seat you are delighted to be seated at an interior table for 2. Fate smiled on you. However, in the last hour that a restaurant is open and 2 of the 14 dining tables are occupied it is hard to figure why being given that same table could be considered hospitality. After the owner dropped our menus off there we moved ourselves to a window table for 4. Figured he would comment on our move when it became clear he was the server. Nope. Probably thought he put us at the right table anyway. To me everything else flows from how a restaurant consciously decides to seat you when everything is available. Would have offered this viewpoint to the owner if asked. It wasn't. read more

We had a wonderful experience. The restaurant has live music on Saturday nights, and the singer invited our girls on stage to dance to the rockets song. The food was also delicious, and affordable! read more

Great hospitality. Cute place inside. Recommend the espresso martini! Very delicious and served with a cute Italian cookie on top.

I hate to leave negative reviews but maybe this will save you $ by going somewhere else. Terrible drinks served with dried black lemons, ordered a dirty martini, but received a regular martini because they didn't have olive juice. We asked the waitress what was floating in the lemon martini and she said it was a grapefruit. The food was just as awful. There was more, but I'll leave it there. The place was almost empty at 7:30 on a Friday night. I can see why. read more

Great food, and taste fantastic. Good service and very informative . Server was attentive and helpful. read more

Our Waitstaff person was Eva as in De Eva. We did have reservations for four at 6:30 PM and were seated immediately. We ordered calamari for starters and they were delicious. Our entrees were delicious. I cannot remember the last time I ordered spaghetti with meatballs and sausage. Others ordered their lasagna, Salmon Cobb salad, and another order of spaghetti and meatballs. The restaurant was laid out very nicely and conducive to conversation. Thank you to all for such a pleasant evening! read more

We had hopes to have a close to home Italian go to spot. Sadly we were disappointed. My boyfriend got the house cab and it tasted like it had been open for a while. (The place was pretty empty so no clue how long it would take them to get through a bottle.) The house bread was homemade and we enjoyed it. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and shrimp that was supposed to be in a brandy cream sauce. It tasted like a normal Alfredo - nothing special and no sights of brandy. I ordered the blackened scallop Alfredo. It tasted like jarred Alfredo and had 6 baby scallops. The scallops were cooked well but the dish was lacking. I would've appreciated some fresh parsley and maybe some lemon to give it some sort of flavor depth. Our server was very sweet and attentive but we won't be back. read more

A friend and I had lunch at this restaurant and just loved it. First the interior was elegant. We had a very sweet lady that waited on us and was so helpful. I tried something new to me. I ordered the Cioppino. It was mussels, clams, and scollops in a wonderfull sauce served with crustinis. I thoroughly loved the dish. My friend ordered the Salmon on cobb salad. She just loved the salad and really loved the dressing. We will definetly will return with our friends. Try this place . You will love it. Peggy K. read more

We had the opportunity of eating at the wonderful establishment last evening and I was instantly impressed by the decor when we walked in the door. This was accented by the beautifully painted frescoes on a large wall surrounding the seating area. The vibe is current and classic at the same time. I was immediately greeted upon entering by a gracious host that took care of us the complete evening and his service was beyond great - he explained every item asked about on the menu thoroughly, even giving his personal favorites which lead us in some of our decisions. Our first main choice of the evening was Chicken and Shrimp Dama Bianca which came out beatifully fresh mushrooms, green onions, sun dried tomatoes in brandy cream sauce. Our second main choice was Saltimbocca which was Sautéed veal scaloppini, prosciutto and sage in white wine, butter sauce. What made this dish extra special was that little hint of lemon you could taste on the back of you pallet as you were eating the veal. To finish the night we couldn't make up our minds between the Tiramisu and the Italian Cream Cake so we ordered both - they were both absolutely fabulous !!! To top off the night the Owner of the Restaurant walked over to our table during dessert and sat in front of us two drinks of Limoncello "On the House" - said we needed those to have for dessert as well !! We have just found a "New Italian Restaurant Home in Plano" !!!! read more

Definitely headed back soon - if you are craving some excellent Italian Food in Plano - drive past Maggianos and come here - you won't be disappointed !! read more

Absolutely recommend and LOVE this restaurant! Have you ever walked into a new place but felt like you were destined to be there? I felt it! I dined in with friends and we had the best service as we devoured our incredible Italian dishes nestled in a modern setting with the perfect ambiance for a Saturday evening. My highlight was the gracious visit and grateful welcome by the owner, Eva. I love finding the "hidden gems" in Dallas and I cannot wait to return. Thank you for a memorable first visit and making me feel as special as your restaurant! read more

DeEva Kitchen & Bar - #Eva‍ - Italian Near Me - Plano, Texas

Friends had been to the revamped Mio by Amore and raved about the changes. It's true! What was a dark older looking restaurant is now a brightly lit and open dining area with a large sit down bar and outdoor patio. I had the Lamb Shank and really enjoyed it. Super friendly and totally revamped. I miss the BYOB but the drinks are good! read more

First time here and the decor was nice and romantic. We liked the soft music and it was quiet where we could hold a conversation. The crab stuffed mushrooms and wine pour was generous and delicious. My husband had the short ribs and I had the lobster ravioli. It was our wedding anniversary and a nice change from steakhouses. Our waitress was very attentive, and we will return for a happy hour and those mushrooms for sure! read more

I went a couple days ago with my grandma and mom for my grandmas birthday. It's even more pretty in person and it was nice out so we sat on the patio. The food is AMAZING! We did the ravioli as an app and dipped our bread in it and it was divine. The sauce was perfect and the star of the show. The tiramisu in a glass was also delicious and our waitress was warm and welcoming. She also gave us a limoncello shot which my grandmother loved! I will be bringing my husband for date night! This is definitely a hidden gem and I'm happy we tried something new and I could find such a cute place. You can real feel their pride in their food and restaurant which really is a big deal to me! read more

Well I've eaten here in the past and really enjoyed their calamari but today the pork chop meal wasn't that great and the meat was very thin. Too much sauce overall ~ besides arriving hungry you can see I ate it . So I'm on the hunt for a better Italian place to enjoy a great meal. The waitress was great‍ read more

0 stars. The people and atmosphere were lovely but the food was horrendous. Over cooked rubbery bad calamari. Disgusting stuffed mushrooms made with expired mushrooms that could not be cut with a knife. Spoiled lasagna, cold pasta with glutinous bland Marsala sauce over tough rubbery chicken. The rolls were good and the pizza edible. Out of steak. Truly one of the most disgusting meals I have ever had. read more

Came on a Sunday early evening. This was our first time and went based largely on the yelp reviews. The interior is nice but a bit campy. Service was very good, but we were the only people dining. Started with the old fashioned- 3.5. Had the truffle fries - 4 ( they were the best thing we had). For entrees we had the spaghetti with meat sauce and chicken parm. We had to send the spaghetti back due to crunchy noodles. Not al dente, crunchy. The chicken parm was limp and very tough. This had to be left from lunch and microwaved. No way it was fresh. Spaghetti- 3. Chicken parm - 2. Overall not a good meal at all. We won't be back. read more

My friend and I were looking for a quiet place to eat dinner for my birthday after a hectic week and stumbled upon DeEva (Pronounced like the word diva). We entered and were immediately taken aback by the beautiful mural on the walls of the upper level. We were greeted by the amazing Em, who had an incredible aura. She had great recommendations, I had the Decadent Ravioli Aragosta, and my friend had the Saltimbocca. It. Was. Phenomenal! The food, the service, the environment was everything I needed tonight. We started off the night with the Bruschetta Caprese, which was great, you should try it. Em brought out a slice of Italian Cream Cake and a shot of limoncello for my birthday which made our night! We will definitely be back for more! read more

The food was not as well prepared as the last time we visited DeEva. The chicken Marsala was dry and there were maybe 12 mushroom slices. Very disappointing. We will not go again. The service was very good however. But the food was similar to a typical low end joint. So sorry to have to write this. But this place has gone downhill. read more

Friendly atmosphere, good food prepared to your satisfaction, well stocked bar, reasonably priced, classy! Ask about entertainment!

Friendly staff and beautiful remodel. I still think the menu can be improved a lot more than the same Old menu when it was Amore. Ordered spaghetti and meat sauce and the chicken pesto pasta dish. They were average in taste and the bread that was offered was dry, perhaps the cheese dried it out. It would a better choice to have the olive oil and the balsamic vinegar for the dipping sauce separated. So you can add a little or a lot of the balsamic vinegar with salt and black pepper. The bread was softer and delectable at Amore. read more

Lovely dining experience! Food was authentic and very tasty. Great atmosphere and experience.

Love this new gem! We were looking for something new and stumbled on this place. The ambiance and decor is wonderful! The food is great and the menu has a lot to choose from. We met one of the owners, Eva, who was lovely. We have had great service both times we went. read more

I stopped in for lunch after learning about DeEva the night before. I wasn't disappointed. Unlike its predecessor in this space, DeEva has a full bar with happy hour specials. The decor is beautiful with all new furnishings. My server happened to be Eva, co-owner of the restaurant. She worked the entire room and provided non-stop service! I ordered a glass of wine and opted for the $10 lunch menu with a small salad and lasagna. Both were absolutely delicious! I can't wait to go back soon for dinner! read more

Excellent service, outstanding food preparation. Prices are super competitive. can't recommend this place enough.
