    Every once in a while, a restaurant serves something that makes you will remember forever. For me, it was the calamari steak at Eva. Where has this been all my life? Why am I only now discovering that calamari can graduate from appetizer status? Eva has built a reputation as one of Salt Lake City's favorite small-plates spots, tucked into a cozy downtown space with a Mediterranean type menu. The mushroom pizza was equally dangerous. Earthy and rich. Between the pizza and that calamari steak, this little spot has officially joined my SLC favorites list.

    Wow! So good! Staff was so accommodating asking for us for allergies! You can tell food is fresh and delicious! So cute inside as well this is all sharing plates for the table so make sure you keep that in mind!

    Eva's Pizza

    My husband surprised me by bringing me here for our two-year anniversary. As we stepped inside, we were led through a shadowy corridor to the back of the restaurant--a secluded alcove whispered to be reserved for lovers. A bottle of crimson wine, which my husband had so thoughtfully requested when making the reservation, awaited us like a silent sentinel on our table. The moment the wine kissed my lips, rich and velvety like a dark secret, I knew this night would etch itself into the marrow of my memory. Surrounding us was an enchanting gothic ambiance: flickering candlelight cast trembling shadows upon the stone walls, and the air was heavy with the heady perfume of roses and aged wood. The entire room breathed intimacy, like a cathedral of indulgence. Upon first glance at the menu--gilded and inked in an elegant, archaic script--my mouth watered with almost sinful anticipation. Everything looked positively decadent, but alas, I knew I must show restraint, lest I be consumed by my own ravenous desire. Our waiter appeared--Gehrig, a vision of aesthetic perfection, with cascading brunette curls and eyes that seemed to hold ancient, knowing mischief. He recommended that we begin with three to four plates. We chose the baked brie, lobster ravioli, Eva's steak, and Eva's pizza. Each dish arrived like an offering to some delicious pagan ritual, and my husband and I devoured them as though spellbound. With each bite, we released low, primal murmurs of pleasure--"mmmmmmm"--echoing like chants in a haunted chapel. For dessert, we indulged in the crème brûlée, its sugar crust cracking like old parchment beneath our spoons, revealing the creamy, golden heart beneath. Beside it sat a decadent marvel: a dark chocolate cup filled with warm, molten ganache, crowned with scorched marshmallows that looked like ghostly little clouds singed by candlelight. As I took a bite, the toasted sweetness gave way to a rich, velvety darkness that coated my tongue like a forbidden spell--smoky, sweet, and utterly divine. It was less a dessert and more an incantation, casting a spell that sealed the evening in delicious eternity. Throughout our two-hour reverie, sweet Gehrig floated in and out of our little sanctum, always arriving precisely when needed, as though summoned by some invisible incantation. His enthusiastic spirit and hauntingly bright smile elevated the evening to something almost supernatural. Eva wouldn't be Eva without Gehrig--our charming guide through this gothic culinary dreamscape. My husband and I agreed that all future anniversaries must be consecrated at Eva. After the dark and stormy year we had endured, it was this night--bathed in candlelight and cloaked in enchantment--that rekindled the sacred fire between us. Thank you, Eva, for the most unforgettable night we could have ever imagined. Here's to many more nights of shadowed magic, shared laughter, and delicious resurrection.

    The energy that the environment creates is one that feels classy and mysterious. The staff was excellent and very kind upon entrance. The menu had a large variety of items that were specific to one "type" of food ! I loved that there were so many options to choose from. This is a restaurant that is a small dish/appetizer kind of place ! We had a great evening, enjoying different dishes in this small gem. Some food - like the meatballs - came out a bit cold which did diminish the deliciousness of the dish. However, dishes were not insanely unique, things you could find at other places. For the pricing, I would say the dishes could have been more interesting. While plating is gorgeous, for these higher end prices and smaller portion sizes, I would expect something that I can't find anywhere else !

    For starters this place was really cute. The ambiance was moody and a great place to talk and hangout with friends. It's a fairly small space but with reservation there shouldn't be an issue getting a spot. The food was good. I wouldn't say it was amazing by any means however the Fig pizza was a personal favorite. The plates ARE SMALL, yes they advertise as a small plate establishment but we were surprised by all but the pizza. So come ready to but lots of options to share. The food came out pretty quick except for the Chicken, which took quite a while. Overall a nice small spot to catch up with friends.

    Watermelon salad
    Amber K.

    Such cozy vibes with relaxing music to boot. The space was thoughtfully decorated, intentional and minimal. The perfect spot for a meal to unwind. The food: Quality fresh ingredients (best watermelon salad I've had, and crispy trout that made me say: "yummmm"). Delicious cocktails. My go to is always a gimlet (refreshing and light) so I gave their garden gimlet a try. Did not disappoint. While these may be listed as small plates the portions are generous compared to other experiences I've had. Price point is great too! Expected to pay much more. Kind staff, no one's rushing you along which was so nice - very chill vibes. Overall so happy to make this my first meal out in SLC.

    I went here for a friends birthday dinner and it was perfect for a group of 5! Some of the dishes I loved were the Eva's pizza and steak Bruschetta.

    This restaurant is LOVELY. From the food, to the service, to the setting, we LOVED Eva. I have been dying to go here for years now and finally got to try it while celebrating my birthday. My husband and I visited the restaurant with reservations on on Saturday night. This restaurant is simple and beautiful. We got to sit at the table closest to the kitchen which was a fun experience as well. Eva is a well-oiled machine and these guys know what they're doin!! The food was beautiful and delicious. Every plate was seasoned perfectly and we really enjoyed the "tapas-styled" menu. Though it is pricey, it was worth it. We got to try the togarashi fried chicken, grilled asparagus with poached egg, Eva's steak, Eva's pizza with pepperoni, and an unforgettable plate of the spinach & potato gnocchi. You guys....please do not visit this restaurant without trying the gnocchi. The flavor was so smooth and savory. It was a perfect dish. Check this off your list if you've been wanting to try it, I promise you will be pleasantly surprised with how beautiful the food is.

    Steak Bruschetta
    Clèm B.

    An amazing place ! Great food and great atmosphere. The place feels cozy and the staff was really kind and friendly. No main meals but a diversity of small dishes to share. Perfect option to try different flavors. The harissa carrots were good spicy but a little more of hummus should have perfect. The wild mushroom pizza was delicious with a delicate touch of truffle oil The steak bruschetta was good and simple And finally the lamb chops were perfectly good and juicy. I totally recommend this place if you stop by Salt Lake City

    Rachel W.

    Great experience at Eva! Loved the ambiance and the food. -Brussel sprouts - we couldn't help but laugh at the portion size. About 4-6 bites total. The dish did have great flavor but wouldn't get again because of the portion. -Steak - delicious flavor, so tender, and reasonable portion -Lobster ravioli - came with 3 ravioli. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the sauce was delicious -Wild mushroom pizza - left something to be desired and didn't have a ton of flavor. Least favorite dish. Would recommend the steak and ravioli, both for portion sizes and flavor!

    Sara C.

    Service is stellar! The food was incredible I would recommend this to literally everyone. Left feeling full. It isn't very cheap so be prepared. We did 10 dishes for 3 people and everyone left perfectly full. No full cocktail list is confusing but if you can dream it they can make it. Loved how homey and personal the space felt!

    Fig & Pig Pizza
    Cori B.

    Perfection. This is a small but slightly fancy tapas restaurant that is worth every penny. I ordered the fig and pig pizza with a sticky date pudding for $29.39 and I loved every bite. The pizza was a perfect balance of salty and sweet. The date pudding was sweet (but not cloying) and moist. I would order these exact items again but there were other items on the menu that I also want to try out. I would come back here again and I would be friends.

    Eve pizza with no meat
    Scott W.

    The server was so nice here. I asked questions if things were good. And his recommendations were good on the Brussels sprouts. My friend had a pizza she didn't like and changed it to the same kind I had. I really liked the Brussels sprouts and the Eve pizza was really good. I made a good choice with no meat on it. The seating was nice. Almost all booths which I like. Low lighting but a vibe that definitely fits what you expect. Music a tad loud so you do have to raise your voice. Overall not bad but not somewhere I'd go frequently.

So of course my wife and I were looking to soak our sorrows in some home-baked pie. So parking was pretty easy around the corner along the street. The pie shop is this long kitchen attached to a super cool thrift shop. That was closed since it was like 8:45pm. We decided to go with the strawberry rhubarb, key lime and apple cobbler. They're essentially little hand pies, like the size of a pop tart. So getting three seems good for two people if you like pie a lot, like we do. We also added two cups of ice cream to go. The girl helping us was nice and engaged conversation when we asked about the thrift shop. Solid service. Once we go home, we heated up the strawberry rhubarb and apple cobbler for one minute. That wasn't long enough so I'd do 1:35 next time. That would ensure the ice cream would melt a bit more. We started with the key lime pie; oh my ... it was epically delicious. This was as good as key lime pie we had in Captiva and The Keys in Florida. Then we dove into the other two. The strawberry rhubarb was 75% crust and 25% filling. I'd love to see more filling there. Compared to a grandma's strawberry rhubarb; it wasn't on par. It was a 3.75/5. Next up was the apple cobbler. A classic. It was pretty much what we expected and so was more on the 2/5 scale. We started so strong with the key lime pie that the bar was set high. Overall a good experience and the night ended on 3 empty cardboard containers filled with crust, melted vanilla ice cream and happy tears of our daughter's new journey. Don't fight it; try the Pie Fight.

Why not cause everyone gets it with creamer right? I waited about 10 mins, which isn't bad considering the amount of people. She called my name and had 3 other drinks with her.

Their fruit-shaped creations are little works of art--so realistic it almost feels wrong to eat them... almost. Each pastry is fresh, light, and packed with flavor. The pistachio was incredibly tasty, though definitely on the richer side, so it's one you might want to savor slowly. The raspberry had a beautifully balanced sweetness with a vibrant, delicious filling. The lemon was very zingy--almost intensely so--but still delightful if you enjoy bold citrus flavors (just maybe not an entire one in a single sitting). The standout, though, was the mango. Easily the winner. It had such a bright, powerful flavor, and the fresh mango inside made every bite feel special. Everything about it--from taste to presentation--was just beautiful. The only slight letdown was the macarons. While still good, they didn't quite match the intensity and uniqueness of the pastries and felt a bit underwhelming in comparison. Overall, this place is a must-visit if you appreciate creative, high-quality desserts. It's clear a lot of skill and care goes into every piece. I loved the building that the pastry shop was in, as it had a "lunch room" feel to it. There are a few restaurants inside so there are options and there's plenty of seating.
