We had a great experience here celebrating my promotion. Ambiance, music, food, and drinks were on point. Great place for our large party of 14. We were kind of tucked away, which made it more intimate. Service was good and they even gave me a complimentary dessert in celebration of my promotion. Lena's never disappoints!

Excellent meal and service. Cozy setting with adequate table lighting. Recent Washington Post review was top notch so that moved us to check out Evelyn Rose after months of procrastination! I love that the tasting menu items can be 1) ordered a la carte and 2) not all diners need to choose that menu. More restaurants need to follow their lead. We will return for Happy Hour, always a nice way to save a few bucks. Hats off to the team, front and back of the house.
