This place was highly recommended and lived up to expectations. We loved the modern take on Israeli and regional food. I've never had grape leaves this tasty and prepared this way. The service was top notch, food came out quickly, considering the caliber. My relative who is used to standard diner fare loved her dish. Well worth a stop if in the area.

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.
