    I don’t usually write reviews but our experience last night at Acova deserves more than the 5 stars I just gave it. Our party of 5 was high maintenance with 2 people having celiac disease and one young lady who has many serious food allergies, so much so that eating out is a rarity for her. Our server, whose name I’m sorry to say I can’t remember, went way above and being the call of duty talking note of the allergies, making several trips to the kitchen to double check things and even bringing out a big book with all of the ingredients for all of the menu items in it. The kitchen made a custom meal for our friend that met her needs. And on top of all of that the food was delicious. All five of us ate every bite. Thank you Acova and our wonderful server!

    Food was delicious, service great, was surprised at how quiet it was upon arrival, though when word gets out about this place I’m convinced it will become a foodies favorite, both the local and tourists alike.
