We like to think as DeEva as a European dining experience, Where love can start, families can bond and conversation can flourish. Our goal is to bring people together around great tasting food. The restaurant offers a full-service bar, extensive wine list, private and outdoor dining, a specious dinning room with a fantastic mural and a second upstairs floor overseeing it all.

We celebrated a special day at DeEva. The venue was tastefully decorated and spacious. The service was excellent, and the food was mostly good, with a few dishes falling short of expectations. I highly recommend the Bruschetta caprese, chicken Marsala, Chicken And Shrimp Dama Bianca, and Chicken Parmigiana. However, the shrimp scampi and red snapper were bland and overly lemon-flavored.

Poorly executed food, which had no flavor, the fish was extremely rancid/fishy tasting like it was old and frozen. The sauces for the pesto pasta was absolutely bland with barely any flavor. The carbonara was average, atleast it was seasoned properly. Truffle fries were again missing the truffle. The wonderful ambience is betrayed by sub par food. The fact that we were the only ones on a beautiful saturday afternoon should have been the classic telltale sign of dissapointment around the corner.

The Old Fashioned drinks were excellent. They had a huge party of maybe a dozen people or even more at the same time as our arrival. I believe that slowed our service, so I gave a 4 star for service, but overall, we thought this experience deserved a 5 star review due to the entrees. I highly recommend the Pasta al Lemone, it is outstanding with the fresh lemon zest in the sauce. Squisito!

This afternoon my wife and I tried a new Italian restaurant in West Plano, DeEva Kitchen. We were thoroughly delighted! The ambiance is relaxing and beautiful yet also so elegant. DeEva had the most comfortable seats of any restaurant we have ever visited. Now for the food. My wife started with a side salad that came with a delicious, zesty dressing. Her main entree was chicken piccata. My wife is a chicken piccata devotee and said this one was superb!The tender chicken was complimented by a delicious lemon-butter, caper sauce. The sauce also lay below the penne pasta that was light and flavorful not the heavy, chewy pasta you might find elsewhere. I had the cioppino. I’m a cioppino connoisseur and the one I make is the best, in my humble opinion. Still, the one I had for lunch today was incredibly savory. While I prefer a tomato based sauce, this one was a seafood-infused clearer broth. and boy did they throw on the seafood!They had clams, shrimp, scallops, and mussels–more than you’d find in any cioppino elsewhere in Dallas. The seafood was perfectly cooked, too. My only suggestion to the chef would be less salt in the broth otherwise, what an incredible meal. We arrived early and had no problem getting a seat even on Friday. You can make an Open Table reservation because it can get crowded. There are tables inside both upstairs and down as well as a relaxing and attractive area outside. The outdoors seating would be a wonderful place to dine during those five days a year when the North Texas weather would permit outside dining! There is a beautiful mural or is it a fresco, this is an Italian eatery, just below the ceiling level that is well worth seeing. Lots of angels and horses that would even delight Michelangelo. Eva the owner was charming and welcoming. Plenty of parking outside, too. My wife and I will be back next week to savor some more of their Italian delights. Mmm che buono!

DeEva Kitchen & Bar is a stylish spot in Plano. The atmosphere is modern and inviting, though the restaurant temperature felt a bit warm. The food was good, but the portions were on the smaller side. Service could also be a bit more attentive. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you’re looking for something fresh and elevated in the area.

Outstanding Italian! The food is absolutely unparalleled in it’s freshness, taste and presentation. We stopped in after not being satisfied with another restaurant in the area and we thought this looked good. When we arrived, a couple leaving was raving about how great it was, and they were not kidding. DeEva is our new favorite. We’ll gladly drive from Allen for this. Eva and Eddie even remembered us from our first visit. Can’t wait to go back again.

Service and atmosphere deserve 5 stars for sure. I mean the place is just so pretty and the servers are so very nice. We got a charcuterie board which was amazing. However, the pastas were horrible. My friend got carbonara and I got the lemon piccata. The pasta was watery and had no flavor or seasoning whatsoever. We had to make use of the salt and pepper at our table. Also added the cheese and chilli flakes in it to give it some flavor because we were struggling to eat it. If we weren’t super hungry we probably would have stopped eating sooner

Such a delight to be here on a weeknight. It was quiet and feels personal. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and quite spacious. Has both indoor dining and patio seating. Ordered garlic shrimps for appetizer. They were generous with the portions. It’s enough for 3 people. Shrimps were fresh and not overcooked. The garlic oil the shrimps are in were oozing with flavors. Their main courses’s portions are enough for 2. We had Chipiano/ seafood stew and veal marsala pasta. Seafood in the stew included scallops, shrimps, mussels and clamps and jam packed with the notes of white wine herbs. Veal marsala pasta’s wine reduction sauce was exquisite and full of many subtle notes of spices blended together. Their Peroni beer on tap is crisp and refreshing, worth trying!

Edit: The restaurant got in touch with me about my negative experience, and personally delivered a better pasta dish and a complimentary slice of cake, which was delicious. The great customer service led me to bump my review up from 2 to 4 stars!
Original Review:
I ordered the Capelli Pomodori, and the quality was quite poor. The dish was extremely bland, and the pasta was overcooked to the point where every bite felt like mush. I tried getting past that, but after a few bites, I just couldn’t eat it. The only reason why I gave it more than a 1 star is because of the sizeable complimentary bread roll it came with.
I was a really disappointed because the restaurant reviews seemed promising, so I’m sure there are better dishes than the one I got. If you decide to give this place a try, just don’t order what I had.

If you are in the area, and want to eat Italian food, please don’t hesitate to come here, you won’t be disappointed. The people here is so nice, and their prices are the best, the also have a big variety of lunch specials that you’ll love. And the place is also a plus, the interior design makes you feel like you’re in a fancy place, and yes, just because everything is good, it’s fancy for me. Don’t miss the opportunity. These pictures are taken with a 10$ lasagna plate. My favorite one is the Chicken Parmesan.
