Our server was great and very friendly. Recommend us amazing selection of food. So pleasant food and everything was delicious. The food has amazing quality. The Prime rib was really good and so delicious. The flavor was well-balanced and its really great. The sandwiches was made fresh and so tasty. The crab cakes has an amazing flavor too. I love stopping there and breakfast is always so good!

Stars are on food and menu options alone. The menu is so versatile. Came around 1:30p for lunch and they gave us brunch and lunch menu. I couldn't decide what to order. I can never say no to a Turkey Brie sandwich so I got the Panini it was great. I wish it had a little chutney to give a sweet tang to the warm turkey and cheese. My guest for the Chicken Sandwich which was massive. The chicken was a touch dry but it was still a good sandwich. We also got the grilled Caesar with runny yolk. Yum this salad was amazing. I need a sunny side up with all salads now. Definitely want to come back and try brunch. My only downside is service left much to be desired. We said we were splitting the salad got no side plates with it, had no silverware on table had to ask for that. Waiter never checked if my mom needed another mimosa or refilled my tea. It wasn't overly busy in our area so not sure if he was serving multiple areas

Excellent food, excellent service. We had the blackened salmon which was cooked to perfection. It's not a huge portion but the flavors are so balanced with rice, shaved Brussels sprouts, and pineapple salsa. The rice was undercooked and the server, Ethan, was professional and efficient in having our meal re-made. A less experienced server would have offered a side of rice. The mistake by the kitchen didn't end up affecting our enjoyment of the meal at all. The buttermilk fried chicken and mashed potatoes were delicious too. And the berry hot margarita had just the right kick! Ethan was attentive throughout the meal. He made customer service look effortless.

Super neighborhood-friendly fun place with very good eats along with a south-of-the-border flare. Would be on the let's-do-it-again calendar if we lived in the area. But worth a drive even if ya don't. Great patio and excellent service made for a neat place to get together with friends. Here's a close-up of their short rib on asparagus risotto. As good as it looks!

What hip spot! I met here for a business meeting we tried the ahi tuna appetizer and it's was really tasty! The welcoming server kept my tea full. The lunch portions were big. My friend got the Caesar steak salad and it was big, I got the Cuban panini, so good!! I ate half because the portions were big. I'd love to come back for happy hour!

A warm greeting welcomed us into the restaurant. Our server Nathan was extremely friendly and took care of us when it started to rain outside, moving us inside and out of the rain. We got the Acova burger with sweet potato fries and a delightful aioli for the fries that paired nicely with the Acova Lager. We also got the French dip with regular fries (the Au Jus was very good, I could have had a whole cup on its own). Overall, this place had a nice vibe. I would have liked to come here during brunch, but lunch was still good and they were on top of their service!

Finally tried Acova and was not disappointed. First off, it is super cute inside and sets such a nice vibe. We also arrived a little early for our reservation and we're able to be seated right away which was really nice. We started with a round of drinks and I got the Smokin Hot which was delicious!!! The guys did the beer and a shot deal (love it) and said the Acova beer was yummy. The apps were the stars of the show in my opinion. We got the artichoke fritters which were sooooo good and not overall fried. They also came with a really yummy Dijon dipping sauce. The table also got the calamari which came in the most insanely delicious sauce I could have eaten it with a spoon! (Pro tip: dip the artichoke in the sauce!!! Yummmmmm) Finally for dinner I got the Brussels salad with salmon. It was tasty but not the best salad I've ever had. We also shared both sweet potato and regular fries with the table and they were both SO GOOD (my favorite part of a meal always and these did not disappoint!) We will definitely be back to try some more!

It was the first day of restaurant week starting in the evening. Britta let us know that if we wanted to do the DRW menu we had the option even though it didn't start until after 4. Feeling very special to have an unplanned date with a friend that ended up to be my first DRW in a long time. Service was amazing (thanks Britta!) Food was delicious - first time having artichoke heart fritters that was oh so divine. The calamari was a pleasant surprise and super tasty with the crusty bread. The short ribs and the risotto were tender, flavorful and juicy. The chimichurri steak was perfectly cooked with a nice char and the side of slight tart and crispy bananas was yummy. The cheesecake was the dessert of the day, nothing to call home for and slightly tough to cut thru but the berry compote made up for it. The Apple donut was yum but wished the apples were baked/fried softer. The dessert were ok but the service, the mains/apps and the atmosphere really made up for our experience. Really amazing job Acova, I LOVE that besides a handful of items not included with DRW, you can pretty much order off of their entire menu! This is unheard off for me for Restaurant Week, usually it's a set menu with 1-3 selection per section and not all of their normal entrées. Definitely worth coming back again!! Still dreaming about those artichoke hearts.....

My time at Acova filled me with joy. The atmosphere was cute, the service was good, and the food was amazing. Their gf cinnamon roll was soft, sweet, and pillowy delicious. The gf biscuit held together, was buttery, layered, and paired with the lavender honey butter was amazing. These two paired are some of the best gf pastries I have ever had. The fried plantain breakfast was the perfect savory treat after the sweet ones. It was quite busy on the Saturday we went but we were able to sit at the bar and the bartender informed me of the allergen warnings of our food and was attentive and helpful.
