   The new owners have significantly improved the quality and service. The menu has lots of healthy options, including delicious mahi mahi, fresh green beans that are perfectly prepared to tender crisp, and wonderful salads. Xetava also has the best french fries in town and terrific desserts. Now that we can make reservations, we like to have dinner at Xetava before attending events at the Kayenta Center for the Arts. The ambience is friendly and quiet. And the tapas bar next door is fun and creative. With spring around the corner, we are looking forward to enjoying both patios with friends.

   The new owners have kept everything we liked about Xetava while significantly improving the service and ambience. Regular hours and reservations are a big plus. The service is very friendly and efficient. Everyone seems to like working there. And the food is better and more varied than ever. It's a great place for a nice casual meal with friends, but it's being discovered so it's best to make a reservation, especially on weekends.

   Although the restaurant is in a remote location, it is definitely worth the 15 minute drive from town. Excellent menu selection, food quality and pricing point. Has an eclectic atmosphere with a artsy neighborhood vibe. This is a don’t miss dinner spot.

   Absolutely love the vibe, food & service! Streetcorn dip was a great start and the Shrimp and grits are fantastic . Boodymarrys are tasty and the frozen mint lemonaid mimosas are a fun highlight!

   New ownership has kept many of the most popular items and added new ones which have created a seamless transition and refreshed the already successful experience.

   My chicken piccata was so flavorful ! I’d definitely order that again. My only suggestion is perhaps a different blend of your coffee Americana. Not very smooth. Perhaps River Rock Roasting blend?Everything else was great.

    The Brussel sprouts appetizer used to be delicious. Now they are nearly inedible…can barely cut into them (the knives are so dull…good luck) or chew them, because only the outer layer is cooked. Clearly the kitchen has cut out a step in the cooking process to save time. The avocado & steak salad is good, but an up charge to add tomatoes? And could they get a no alcohol beer on the menu? Been asking for a year…they stick their head in the sand when it comes to realizing a change in drinking culture & the popularity of NA beers. I had high hopes for the new owners, but it’s been a disappointment for this formerly frequent customer.
