    We found this on our "try a new taqueria" Sunday. I am so glad we did! I ordered a small menudo and 1 barbacoa taco on corn tortilla. The menudo was legit! It was clean, flavorful and on point. I added a little Serrano because I like it spicy. I should have gotten the large! My barbacoa taco was greasy and good. I would get both again. My spouse ordered menudo and two tacos on flour, pork chop and country in gravy. Yum! The sweet tea was freshly made. The restaurant was cozy and clean and the service was quick and friendly. I can't wait to try more of their food.

    And I wanna start of and stay that the place me look a lil run down but it's very clean. Very small hole in the wall. But the food there is great our meals came to us hot and delicious we didn't have to wait much time. My eggs came in the way I asked and the red salsa was very delicious spicy but with a lot of flavor. The beans are very average but the POTATOES for some reason came out super duper good! Bacon cooked perfectly how I like it,and the pancake was pretty good! Eggs weren't anything too different but the salsa verde I put on it had good flavor. The staff was friendly and welcoming I do recommend to anyone who enjoys some Mexican TexMex food to come here

    This place was awesome, the prices are very reasonable and the tacos were full. I ordered 3 tacos bot got more than full on only 2 because they were so stuffed. The staff is friendly and attentive. My wife and I left there very happy and full. A++ for this place.

    Had a training in the area and happened upon this place. Ordered four tacos and they were all great. Fast and friendly service. Can't wait to come back!

    We are in town for a student competition and tried this place. Absolutely great food! We each had the Supreme Plate at lunch time, everything was fresh and delicious! Check out the before and after pictures of my plate!

    Eva's is right across the street from Confluence Park. Hubby and I went to Yoga at 10am on Sunday morning and were starving by the time it was over at 11am. We used Yelp to discover a place that was close to fill our bellies. We actually could have just walked over across the street just down the block if we had only know how close it was. We laughed as we pulled in. We were the only white people in the place so you know it's authentic Mex / Tex-Mex. The server barely understood English, that's ok too... menu is in English so it's all good. I hope more people discover this place since it's so close to the new park. I had the Mahacado con Huervo while hubby had Eva's Breakfast. I asked for no beans then shared my potatoes with hubby since his didn't come with it. Since I've been eating Keto, I'm passing on a lot of rice, beans, potatoes, and tortillas which are staples of the Texican diet. Machacado was good, my new 'go to' for breakfast... I know we'll be back either before or after yoga one Sunday morning.

    We were walking through Confluence Park and caught a glimpse of Eva's Cafe through the trees. Yes we exercise, then eat tacos! Firsr time here! Staff was friendly, service great and the tacos delish! Prices are reasonable! Great hole in the wall!

Almond croissant - a monster sized, flaky croissant with a generous almond filling. Guy Fieri highlighted this croissant on his DD&D show. It's probably a million calories not worth it! Tequila strawberry tres leches croissant - a small, cream filled croissant with strawberries. This was our least favorite.

Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing, which is why I'm giving 3 stars. I ordered the veal Schnitzel with mushroom gravy (Jägerschnitzel) and red cabbage. The gravy had a strange gelatin-like consistency and lacked the rich flavor you'd expect from a proper Jäger sauce. The veal was extremely chewy and honestly made me feel ill afterward. The red cabbage was also very undercooked and completely lacked flavor. Overall, I personally did not find the food authentic or representative of true German cooking. What truly saved this experience was the outstanding customer service. Our server, Joseph, was attentive, professional, and genuinely kind throughout the meal. I also greatly appreciated Mr. Adam, the kitchen manager, who personally came out to discuss my concerns. He handled the constructive criticism with professionalism and openness, and I truly respected the fact that he listened carefully and considered my feedback regarding the sauce. Although I wouldn't personally return for the food, Joseph and Mr. Adam turned what could have been a terrible experience into one where I still felt valued as a customer. Their professionalism absolutely deserves recognition.

It was a little messy with the eggs and sauce, so I ended up eating it with a fork. The biscuit came with potatoes on the side, but unfortunately they were overcooked and super hard/crunchy, so we could barely eat them. Overall, I'd definitely come back and try more menu items!

Everyone was very friendly. We had an exceptional view and we had more than enough food that we had to ask for take out boxes. My favorite was the Mac & cheese though I'm usually not a fan. This dish used cork screw shaped pasta and it was moist and not stuck together. I had to share a photo of it with Sweetie who is in Tokyo right now. Doc liked the pimento for the cornbread.
