    I had a delightful lunch with a friend at this charming spot. The ambiance was bright and clean, creating a welcoming atmosphere. From the delicious meal to the excellent service, everything was spot on. The service was prompt and friendly, without being overbearing. We started with oysters on the half shell, perfectly accompanied, followed by Harissa Salmon with a fresh & unique side salad (frisee, pomegranate seeds, thinly sliced watermelon radish), tomato soup, and grilled cheese, plus tea and water which was kept filled throughout the lunch. The quiet environment made it easy to have a conversation, and I’ll be returning to Eva for future lunches. Highly recommend it!
