I visit Eva Myers' restaurant in Ocho Rios a few times a year. I go alone, bring a friend or groups of friends. I've had functions there. When you walk in from the garden area, you can see right away that it is going to be a great experience. Eva has free wi-fi, so you can bring your device to... More

Evita's offers a strange menu, with italian dishes with Jamaican twists. Not sure that it workid, but the food was served hot an ontime. Not a good place if it's raining though.

Thank you for your ‘interesting’ review. Yes, when it rains all the tables by the railing, on the verandah, cannot be used but the covered area, still has a nice view of the town and, most people enjoy very much the ‘outside feeling’ whilst not getting wet… Ciao! Eva More

Our corner table gave us a spectacular view to go along with an amazing dinner. Door to door service was the best!

I had the opportunity to have a fabulous dinner at Evitas in Ocho Rios Jamaica. The menu is extensive and I took 10 minutes trying to figure out which of the lovely dishes I would have. My fiance and I decided to order a few of the items and share because everything sounded so good. Each and every dish was... More

Thank you so much for your, so ‘enthusiastic’ review. I am really glad that you enjoyed the restaurant, especially knowing that the taxi fare from Bahia Principe, being so far from Ocho Rios, must have cost you a ‘pretty penny”…!!!

We went to Evitas on our first night in Ocho Rios. They came to our hotel and picked us up (no charge) and everything about the place was excellent. The food and service both were far above average. The owner spent 15 minutes filling us in on the background of how the restaraunt came to be and that made the... More

Thank you, Michael, for your review rating us excellent. It is so heartwarming to hear this, both, for my staff and myself! This makes it all ‘worthwhile’…including the extra 22 pounds, accumulated over the last 22 years of ‘food quality control’ …. :-) Ciao! Eva More
