EVO ItalianWonderful Italian restaurantI'm not a fan of Italian restaurants normally. Some tend to be stereotypical Italian places and some try too hard to impress with things like lasagne. This was not like that- thankfully. This was a beautiful setting for a wonderful meal. Criticisms? I only have a few: Tables are slightly too close- despite the curtains; chairs could be more comfortable- they are ones you'd expect at a pizza place; and the food was very good- not fantastic (my fish was slightly overcooked, the lobster with risotto was very rich, the chicken with potatoes was fine but it was really just chicken & mashed potatoes, the brownie promised to be "the best I've ever had" by the waitress was really not). Compliments?: Great outdoor area; great service, pretty.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our first trip toThis was our first trip to the new location -- I'm not sure why it took us so long to revisit this restaurant. The beggar's purse ravioli, eggplant rolatine and chicken gorgonzola were outstanding. The Sunday sauce combo entree was also very good. Bread was crispy on the outside and soft inside. I kept thinking about our meal the next day. This is a great special occasion place, and we will definitely be back!4/23/2013 12:00:00 AMThe new restaurant is veryThe new restaurant is very nice and spacious. We really like the new bar area. Food is great!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMWe sat outside in the gazeboWe sat outside in the gazebo which was a delight. It's so nice being outside in March comfortably. The waitstaff was attentive and helpful. After dinner, we had a drink on the couches outside. The firepits make for a great nighttime effect, flowers everywhere, make for a very special evening. We had people from Massachusetts with us, so they were thrilled to be outside with color all around them.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Find in a strip MallDon't let the outside fool you. Back behind the less than stellar stores is a real gem. Awesome food, very friendly staff and a really great atmosphere. We are only part timers in Florida and this is the second time we were there this month. We brought friends and out 20 year old who loved it as well. They have beautiful outside dining are and a humidor to enjoy an after dinner smoke. We had to wait a bit for our main courses but they were vey nice about it buying coffee and dessert for us. We will certainly be back next time we are down.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMfirst visitthis was our first visit.

We truly enjoyed our experience at EVO. The restaurant was cozy and perfect for our night. My wife and I are both Italian and enjoy true Italian food. EVO did not disappoint, the food was superb as was the service. Great desserts and coffee topped off a wonderful night. Can't wait to try the other dishes....1/1/0001 4:00:00 PM
