"I would start with the old saying. “Never judge a book by its cover”. We were visiting the New Church VA area and wanted to try out restaurants in Salisbury. After some research, we decided to check out Cactus Taverna. When we arrived, I wasn’t sure about the correct address as it seemed to be a mall which indeed it was... a strip mall at that. Needless to say I was starting to get ‘the look’ from the better half. I sensed it as there was just silence. I dear not look into her direction. Anyway we proceeded to the door and was pleasantly, and Yes thankfully surprised by the inside. From the minute you walked in, the lovely hostess with a dashing smile got us to our table and welcomed us as timers. She told us Dan was going to attend to us and we couldn’t be happier with his service. He was so cool, introduced us to the lovely menu and engaged us in spirited conversations. We started with frog legs and calamari which the now happy spouse enjoyed. We also listened some lovely jazz music played by two gentlemen that gave wonderful renditions of some timely classics. Both appetizers were quite good, but the best was yet to come. The Better half had the rack of lamb which she is still raving about. I went with the duck which was scintillating. The Mexican/Mediterranean theme worked brilliantly at this restaurant. The manager dropped by a couple times to check on us and he was brilliant. Had a vivacious personality which seemed to be the common theme at Cactus Taverna. We both lamented having to drive back after our dessert which was finished off with complimentary port which was a lovely touch. We just wanted to chill, as we were so happily satisfied by the presentation, food and service. We tend to eat out from time to time in and around DC/MD and we can safely say that CT can toss up comfortably with some of the more well established restaurants in the region. Excellent food service and we will be back!!"

We would recommend Cactus Taverna without hesitation. The couple with us had been to this establishment previously, we had not. In addition to our friends the reviews were positive and we concur.

The service is excellent but the food is, quite frankly, poor. A tired place where standards of food have been allowed to slip. I cannot urge others to become patrons...there are many better choices in the area. View menu

the lamming frame was as usual excellent as the cocos yarn and calamari. we sat the closest to the singer, so it was a little loud. but overall we had a wonderful time and look forward to having dinner again soon.

"On October 8, 2023, my wife and I decided to try brunch at EVO, attracted by their appealing online menu. We arrived around 10:20 AM to a pleasant atmosphere, and there were only about 10 tables occupied at that time, both inside and outside. The restaurant appeared to have plenty of staff on hand, including waiters, busboys, and food runners. We ordered water, tea, and a mimosa while we waited for our meals. I chose the scrapple cristo, which was supposed to come with brunch fries, while my wife ordered the classic benedict with brunch potatoes. A food runner placed my plate on the table and handed a very hot plate to my wife, who nearly dropped it. My order indicated brunch fries, and hers indicated brunch potatoes—I expected them to be different. I wanted to check with our waitress to clarify if there was a mistake on the menu or in the kitchen. As the waitress walked by, she glanced at our table and made a statement, not a question, saying everything looked correct, and she continued on to the next table. I managed to catch her attention at another table to request some hot sauce, planning to ask her about the brunch fries when she returned. However, she hurriedly dropped off the hot sauce without stopping to speak. I didn’t see why she was moving so quickly, as the restaurant didn't seem busy; it seemed like other staff were handling their tasks without the same urgency. When my wife cut into her eggs benedict, it was clear that they had been under a heat lamp for too long, causing the poached egg to be fully cooked. Eventually, the waitress came back, but as she walked past our table, she asked if we needed boxes. I asked her to come over, and my wife requested new poached eggs, ideally with hollandaise sauce. They did not come with sauce, and a food runner dropped them off and rushed away before we could say anything. We waited several minutes for the waitress to check on us again, but she never did. My wife became understandably frustrated and just wanted to get the check and leave. We walked to the host station to ask for our bill. I noticed the waitress hurrying from the dining room to the bar area. When she saw us talking with the hostesses, she approached us. I honestly told her she's the worst waitress we've ever had, and we just wanted the check to move on from this experience. She brought us the check just as the manager came over to check on us. We paid our bill and received our receipt. The manager wanted to make amends, but by then we were ready to go. I mentioned that we wouldn’t be returning and that they should focus on their beer selection. In all honesty, I might consider going back, but certainly not for brunch, and not this year. The entire situation was minor and could have been easily resolved with a more attentive waitress. As an introvert, it’s not in my nature to flag someone down or shout across the room for assistance. According to our receipt, we placed our order at 10:47 AM and left at 11:36 AM—during that time, we saw our waitress for maybe a total of ten seconds."
