Our family had a terrific meal at EVOO. The staff was attentive, the food was delicious, it was a memorable experience. We ordered a selection of food - salad, sides and the grilled meat board, everything was so good. We were celebrating a graduation and they made it very special. We will definitely be back in the future. Thank you!
