Always a delicious meal. The Dolce eggplant appetizer is so good. Love the pear pasta purses with Gorgonzola cream sauce. If they have the pistachio cheesecake get it.

This was my first time dining at Evelyn’s, and it exceeded every expectation. Chris, our server, was an absolute delight and guided us into the perfect menu. We started with the oysters, followed by the tuna kibbeh nayeh and octopus, and then the wagyu skewer, mushroom skewer and batata side. Everything was delicious—highly recommend.
