    We love Acova. We always have an enjoyable dinner every time we go there! The staff are friendly and helpful. The food and drinks are the best. The atmosphere is enjoyable. This was the first time we were seated on the bar side. While it wasn’t as wonderful as the dining room side, we still enjoyed ourselves and our dinner and have no complaints!

    What an *excellent* restaurant! Surprisingly fine cuisine at very reasonable prices. The space is relaxed and casual, and the varied menu suggests "comfort food" but the dishes are conceived thoughtfully and prepared carefully, even elegantly. How do they make their "skillet cornbread' so rich & savory? Service was great, very efficient & attentive The cocktails are imaginative and artistic creations, and there's a well-curated list of wines & beers. Happy Hour is truly a bargain. It's hard to understand why there's ever an empty table in the house.

    Wonderful brunch at River and Woods. Hard to find a breakfast place with French press coffee but R&W has it and it’s incredible! We celebrated my wife’s birthday today over brunch and every aspect was delightful. Small quaint place but quiet enough to have great conversation over delicious food. We’ll be back again and again!

    Wonderful neighborhood breakfast/brunch gem! We weren't sure what to expect as it was our 1st visit, but we were very pleased with the food & service. Not a fan of how the waitlist program works, but we were seated quickly.
