    We have an amazing time every time we dine at Cavas. Chef Ana is incredibly welcoming and her food is divine. She makes the best empanadas my husband and I have ever had!

    This was a great experience- the food and service were both top notch. We did the 8 course pre fixe menu and it was so much fun to get the story behind each course and the plating was lovely and the enthusiasm of both chef and server was obvious and contagious! The restaurant was small but really lovely and welcoming and all patrons were treated like long lost friends. Can't wait to return and try the paella!

    We loved our experience at Cavas. The flavors in the meal were exceptional. Great Sangria. Ana and Peter(owner/chef and server) are amazing at what they’re doing. You feel very special when you dine at Cavas. Prices are a little higher than we expected but all worth it. We will definitely go back.

    The owners are delightful. Drinks creative. Portions perfect and each course is a different experience. I would just say to cut back on the salt in creamed corn dish. It was nice and spicy, creamy but less salt please. Would definitely return. A wonderful evening.

    Chef Ana takes her time with each guest. Culinary is an art, you cannot rush art! It is an explosion of flavors in your palette! Each ingredient is cut fresh as you order your dinner! It is an amazing experience! You cannot get this kind of Spanish dishes made fresh to order anywhere else. Chef Ana & her husband at Cavas are amazing! 5 star rating is not enough!
