ZAVA CAFE — Restaurant in Rehoboth Beach

I have never experienced someone so rude. We came during sea witch expecting a wait as it as a busy weekend. We were greeted very nicely by a lady; however, that was where the positive experience ended. Neither of the other individuals working at the restaurant acknowledged our presents at all. Again we waited for quite a while knowing that it was see which weekend and that it was going to be quite a wait. Another group of people walked into sit at the bar and realize it was going to be a wait so they said they would come back the next day to the waitress responded “patience is a virtue”- when they explain that they had to leave because unfortunately they had 20 other people waiting for them she rudely exclaimed “so do i” -While no one did anything to us I did not feel that I wanted to give my business to anyone who treated patrons that way. We actually went next-door to get coffees and she came into the business next-door complaining about the people that had left and about how they had no patience. I was appalled that anyone would act like that to patrons during a busy weekend or otherwise. Again no one did anything to us personally but just the level of unprofessionalism that I witnessed was enough for me to not want to give my business to this restaurant. Their food may or may not be delicious however we never got to experience it due to the level of unprofessionalism of...

I have eaten many times at this cafe. Lunch for me is better than dinner. It might be personal preference as I have dietary restrictions and the options at lunch are a better choice for me. The place is cute, the staff are personable but service is pretty slow (sorry but true). I prefer a fine wine, so the wine is ok, just kinda Meh for me, one glass of something light I can manage which is fine at lunch. I used to love stealing a french fry or 2 from my significant others plate but lately they are overcooked, too crispy and refried too many times yuk! Which is a shame as when they are fresh made they are really awesome.I have eaten here with friends aswell as my partner I enjoy the wild bowl, it is a wonderful dish, and my partner and friends have never disliked their lunch (part from those overcooked French fries) chicken sandwich is good too. However, we had dinner tonight and it was sub par, I think the ingredients were just low standard and my salmon was tasteless, carrots were hard as a rock and asparagus was mushy. So I won't be back for dinner.......I will keep going for lunch. Oh and I should mention, the coffee here is amazing, again they offer oat/almond milk options so that works for me and the coffee is smooth, not...

Twice now I have had breakfast at Zava cafe and my last experience compelled me to write this review. First off the food is fresh and very good. I have had the Denver omelet each time I have eaten at Zava and it has been fantastic. The ingredients are fresh and the taste of everything is top notch. Now for the service. This last time Preston greeted us before the door could shut behind us. A big warm friendly welcome. It did not end there. The level of service throughout our meal was about as welcomed as I have ever felt in a restaurant. We were treated so well and the food was so good I will make it a point of coming back more frequently. I told my wife when we left that Preston restored my faith in humanity. A bold statement but let me be clear. Preston has an amazing positive energy that fills a room. His energy made my experience memorable and left me feeling joyful the rest of the day. Happy Holidays to you and the...
