Eva’s Little Kitchen - Bedford — Restaurant in Bedford

Edit: Feb 22 I appreciate the thoughtful response from the owner, Eva. As a former owner of two chocolate shops I can appreciate that there can be miscommunication among the staff. Beautiful environment! Pastries look delectable as did the daily lunch time offering on the counter.

I ordered the Smoked Turkey Sandwich advertised as containing Turkey, Brie Cheese, Housemade Red Pepper Jelly, Arugula. There must have been a shortage of items for the sandwich and perhaps that explains why it took so long to prepare as I was the only one in the shop at the time.

When it arrived there was so much pepper jelly on the sandwich that it had soaked through and the bread was a soggy, pink mess. Very little cheese on the sandwich and that which was there consisted mainly of ends and rinds. If the kitchen runs out of ingredients perhaps its better to say an item isn't available.

I wish that I had taken a photo of the sandwich but at the time wasn't planning to write a review. As an afterthought $16 plus tax was too much to pay for something that ended up with the bread being thrown in the trash along with the cheese and the turkey saved for a salad I...

Small neighborhood pastry shop with a few solid hits.

Dropped in for pastries after brunch nearby. The shop itself was tiny, with a case of pastries alongside some pre-packed salads and pasta that didn’t look too tempting. We stuck to the pastries: a chocolate cream puff, croissant bread pudding, and a braised beef hand pie.

Chocolate Cream Puff – Liked the 50/50 split of chocolate and vanilla cream, not too sweet. The puff shell, though, had an odd texture that I didn’t quite like.

Croissant Bread Pudding – Just too dense. Barely sweet, but not much flavor to make up for it. Two bites in and I was done.

Braised Beef Hand Pie – Snagged the last one, but forgot to have it heated. Took it home and gave it a quick warm-up in the Balmuda for 3 minutes. The filling was satisfying and well-portioned, but I was obsessed with that buttery crust. Dipped half of it in spicy aioli which took...

I’ve had food multiple times from this place over the last few months and i will say that the pastries and desserts are delicious. However, the prices are very very high and i dont feel like they match the quality of the food. $8 for a small conrainer of overnight oats. $35 for two servings of stuffed peppers. That is outrageous. The food is not bad but the entrees are decent at best. I’ve had jalapeño poppers that were tasty but worth 10$ instead of $20. I also wish they would focus on healthier foods- cooked veggies, whole wheat products, etc. I will be going back but with the hope that the prices decrease.

EDIT: After the response from the owner i am changing my review to 4 stars instead of 3. I think that paying higher prices is ok after everything she said which...
