After reading very good reviews of Restaurant Eve my wife made reservations for our daughter and her husband and me to celebrate an early father's day. There are two sections, a very fine dining section and a bistro section. We were seated in the 'Bistro' part which has a $65/person prix fixed menu with lots of choices and the wine... More

I recently ate in the tasting room for my wife's birthday. My daughter had received an email citing a promotion that gave anyone born in April a free tasting menu dinner. No restrictions were mentioned. So, my wife and I flew up from North Carolina and went there with my daughter and her husband. After the bill came, I was... More

Four of us enjoyed our reunion in this elegant restaurant in which we could easily converse. The setting is beautiful and the service outstanding. Food was good, too, but our choices left us less thrilled than on previous visits. I have never had better crab cakes; tasty and no filler. Altho' unnecessary, they were topped with sweet, flavorful caramelized onions... More

This review is for the lunchtime menu in the lounge, which is a fantastic deal at $15 for two courses (which include any combination of soups, sandwiches, entrees, salads, wines, and desserts from an abbreviated menu). The price made the experience no less sublime. The atmosphere was peaceful, quiet, sunny, secluded. The staff made it feel like a fine dining... More

I really anticipated eating here and was unfortunately pretty disappointed. I wanted it to live up to the reviews and it just was ok. It was very pricey and the food was diappointing. Maybe I just visited on an "off" day but for the price I will eat elsewhere. The facility was very pretty and nicely decorated. The wine list... More

Restaurant Eve is nationally known and the food and wine is very well done. A bit pricey but worth a try. The lunch special at the bar is very well worth it. More
