Great new spot in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. My wife and I tried the carry-out last night and thoroughly enjoyed. I ordered three Gyro Tacos which were fantastic. Lots of meat with an excellent pita wrap/tortilla. My wife got the chicken shawarma which she loved just as much. We will be back again! read more

Cool lil place. Dog friendly, good Covid protocols, fast service, and good food. I got the steak Shwarma wrap and I enjoyed it. I also got the garlic feta fries and those were the star of the show. Limited indoor seating but fast and really good. If you are in Lincoln Park definitely check it out read more

Some of the best nachos I have ever had. Their pita nachos are such a fun take on fusion food. The pita chips are thicker than corn chips but are still nice and crispy. I believe it was topped with feta, pomegranate, and some sort of hummus. We added kefta meatballs which was a great addition. It was a ton of food and easily enough for a meal. Definitely check this place out! read more

We stopped by Evette's on a cold Saturday morning and decided to order breakfast/bunch! The menu led us to believe that we needed to come with an empty stomach which was 100% true because these dishes are very filling. The thing I loved about Evette's is the quantity of food served, the mix of delicious ingredients, and the kind employees taking our order and making the food. What we ordered: I ordered the Pita Huevos Rancheros which was delicious. The eggs were cooked sunny side up, but I'm sure you could ask to have them cooked more if runny eggs aren't your favorite. The homemade salsa rosa was delicious and added great flavor and spice (be aware this dish is a little spicy due to the salsa and chili oil!). I did have the option to add meat, but I decided to go with how it was noted on the menu, with no meat. My friend ordered the Breakfast Sandwhich which ended up being a massive sandwich full of everything you could imagine - eggs, fries, cheese, and more. By the end, the bun fell apart and it was easier to eat with a fork, but we made sure to eat every last bite possible. I did save about 1/2 of my Pita Huevos Rancheros which was a wonderful leftover warmed up in the oven to keep the Pita chips crispy! The restaurant is pretty small but there is usually a place to sit and eat your meal. Otherwise, I'd plan on taking your food to go! read more

Get. The. Tacos. You will not be disappointed! Backstory: My family and I needed to waste time until our zoo reservation. I quickly searched for some place to eat lunch and found Evette's. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming and I liked the music. The inside is small but by some miracle we snagged a table. We ordered a lamb melt, lamb wrap, chicken sharawma wrap, French fries, and two al pastor tacos. My oldest kid really liked the sharawma wrap. He said the chicken was tender and juicy. My younger kid had the lamb melt and a taco. He didn't like the melt because his bread was a little charred. The manager or owner noticed the bread and took it off our check! I was not expecting that! I had the lamb wrap. It was good. It could use a little more meat but I still enjoyed it. The fries were fresh and crisp. Okay, now let's get back to the tacos! I was not expecting them to be so delicious but wow! All I needed was some hot salsa and I would've been in heaven! My kids are still talking about the tacos. Get one or ten. You won't be disappointed. read more

Yum! A little pricey but not for the neighborhood. Enjoyed the chicken- very tender and juicy, and the pink sauce was delicious. Hit my sweet tooth. The hallumi was great as well and unique read more

Saw this place recommended by my fav food blogger lickworthy and wanted to give it a try for lunch. The food was amazing. Tried the chicken shawarma plate and the pomegranate feta tabbouleh. YUM! Would order it again. My only complaint about the experience is when I ordered through the restaurant's online ordering platform, the experience was absolutely horrible. The ordering part was very easy, but when the driver picked up the food I didn't have transparency into where the driver was, like I do with the other food delivery platforms, and he was driving around lost for about 30 minutes. Food came cold, very late and I was beyond frustrated. I will probably stick to the delivery platforms I know next time. read more

For the third time this month it's 5 o'clock in the afternoon I tried putting in an order and they said they're not accepting orders. This restaurant is useless. hire some more people change your business plan. read more

Ordered from location at time out market and it was amazing! Pomegranate seeds in the salad were a great addition. Had the steak shawarma with couscous and salad, definitely recommend. read more

Just inhaled my first order from here.. well, as much as I could! Anyway I almost ordered the chicken shawarma wrap, but decided on the chicken tacos instead. SO GOOD!! I ate 2 of the 3 and will have the last one later. I ordered the side of couscous which I guess just isn't what I was expecting.. it comes cold, with golden raisins and feta. It isn't bad, but doesn't really go with the tacos and I guess I was expecting a warm side.. so I'll save that for later or share when I get home. Overall, I'm excited that I found a great place so close to work!! Delivery was fast and efficient. read more

Love this place. We go at least once a week for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The tacos, burger and plates are delicious. They just rolled out breakfast sandwiches which are really good. They serve Colectivo Coffee and some fantastic pastries (not sure what local bakery they get the from.) read more

Evette's got their taco game on!!! Al pastor was awesome! Tortilla crispy and stuffed with cheese. Also, 5star Garlic Feta Fries. I love the garlic sauce and would put it anywhere. read more

Updating my review from two stars to four, because I'm obsessed with the French fries with meat on top, the halloumi cheese, and the great music they play inside. It's still a bit of a rushed vibe in there. I guess that's a good sign for them. It's a small place, but the decor is cozy, if you can ignore the bustle in the kitchen. My personal menu choices are limited, but, I'm glad I found something I really like. read more

Delicious Lebanese/Mexican fusion food! Great balance of interesting flavors. I wish the portions were a bit bigger for the plates (not pictured here) but overall, would recommend and definitely go back! read more

Evette’s - Side of Fries, Two Halloumi Tacos - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Evette's is an absolute gem, and I'm so glad they opened up in Lincoln Park. We are so lucky to have them. The mix of Lebanese and Mexican flavors is incredible, and I love being able to taste flavors from both cuisines in many of these dishes. My favorite items so far are the halloumi tacos and the lamb melt. They are to die for and are two of the items where the fusion of flavors from each cuisine shine. I also love the chicken arabes tacos, the al pastor tacos, both shawarma wraps and the pretty salad. The owners and the staff are so kind, too, and deserve every bit of success they're finding with this awesome new spot. read more

Lovely little restaurant to stop in while exploring. We got Halloumi tacos and a bacon hash brown sandwich. SO delicious. Great find!

Unreliable! I ordered delivery online and the restaurant waited an hour before cancelling the order. Cancel right away so your customers can make a plan B. read more

If you're in Lincoln Park, go to Evette's. If you're not in Lincoln Park, go to Evette's. Hands down the best fries I've had. Their wraps and tacos are delicious too. You won't be disappointed. read more

Was very excited for Evette's, as it's just down the street from where I live. I tried it on its opening day, and the only negative aspect was that the portions were not large enough, and there was not enough meat. However, I withheld judgment given that it was the very first day. Went back recently, and not only are the portions now significantly larger, they are much more generous with their meat. High quality food that tastes great! Definitely recommend Evette's read more

A few months back I learned about Evette's for the first time. I came by on a Sunday with my partner at 10am, which is when it says on their website that they're open. The open light was on but the door was closed and the person at the grill saw us and ignored us, so we knocked. We asked if they were opened and he said, "Nah, 11" so we left. The menu looked really good though, so despite that I wanted to come back another day. I had never been inside so I didn't know what to expect and decided to make a reservation on Tock which required a deposit of $10. No problem, as I really wanted to go and I was taking my mom from out of town. We arrive at 7:32 and I was confused as I looked around. No server, no host.. about 2 high top tables and 5 window seats. I was confused why a reservation would ever be encouraged with such limited seating to even offer guests, but I went to the cashier to find out about my reservation since my deposit was supposed to be put towards my bill. He informed me that they were already closed... at 7:32 when they are open until 8... and I had a 7:45 reservation.. and they had my $10 deposit. I spoke with the owner the next day who blamed Tock for letting me make a reservation that late and didn't have much to say about them not honoring their hours or my reservation. Thanks to Tock I was finally able to get my refund back. Safe to say, good sounding menu or not, I will never go back. Twice now they have been unreliable and not honored their hours so they've wasted enough of my time. read more

This place is doing it right. We had 3 different types tacos, all were really tasty, fresh and high quality ingredients. We had the lamb melt sandwich and a side of the garlic aioli fries (get those fries!) Everything was super good. We ate inside the restaurant and it's very nicely done. A lot of natural light and live plants and excellent music. We can't wait to go back and try other things on the menu. Welcome to the neighborhood Evette's! read more

I live very close by, so I wanted to give the place a try. I will preface this review by saying that the food was tasty, and that the service was friendly and timely. I had an order of chicken shawarma fries. However, I paid around $18 for it. This is around double the price of what I can get elsewhere. I'm not sure Evette's is worth the price hike. read more

The food was fantastic- Service was quick and friendly. And nice pleasant clean sitting area!

this is a new spot.we ordered a dinner delivery a couple of days back. Lamb wrap, chicken shwarma plate, the feta fries. potato fries/wedges with the whipped feta - Amazing, could not stop eating them.These are a must try! Chicken platter : overall good - i can order it again., the meat was a bit dr , the couscous a bit sweet- would have loved a sauce accompaniment. Lamb wrap : we could not it , the meat was not seasoned , it was a mush, the sauce component was too less and very underseasoned. read more

The most boring tasting chicken pita wrap I've ever had! I dont know what the hype is about.

After reading the review in the NYT, I was so excited to try this spot. I went with two friends on a Sunday at 2:00 to take advantage of the regular menu so highly touted -- plus the brunch menu was meh. The young gal with trendy bleached eyebrows taking orders messed up two out of three simple orders and an inability to answer questions. We were told that they were out of French fries -- a key component of menu. The salad which sounded great was basic with barely any flavor. The halloumi was rubbery and certainly nothing like the NYT descriptions. The wraps that the beef and chicken shawarma seemed stale. The sirloin beef was dry, salty and tasteless. The only bright spots were the chicken meat in shawarma and the sweet potato fries. However, neither would seem to propel this spot to a NYT mention. Overall, it was super disappointing and even if it was an off day, the staff were so disengaged and uninterested in the customers, I'm not sure it's worth a repeat visit especially being charged $22 for a beef shawarma and a Pellegrino lemonade. read more

Not sure I would call this Lebanese food. Food was tasteless. They don't even use levant ingredients. Don't waste your money.

The food is excellent didn't like that they put a fifteen percent tip on total automatically for take out , look at total because was a bit hi , the employee told me there's a fifteen percent tip on there ,I said remove that, I did not tell them to put it on there , I gave 3.00 cash tip anyways then and asked for extra sauce before we left and I think but not sure the owner said 50 cents each ...I said no thank you and left ...I just wonder when putting a 15 percent tip on bill became automatic ....maybe it was isolated to that employee but who knows .....last time I got free sauce, did get a good vibe I won't go back read more

Amazing food, amazing people! Definitely check this place out I think my favorite was the feta fries, just hits!

This is low-key one of the best restaurants in Chicago. Not even kidding. The food is simple, fresh and delicious. The gyro and chicken plates are phenomenal, and the fries are next-level goodness. If you haven't been here, change that. read more

The pita nachos are to die for - this place does cross over eats so well and it is delicious. The atmosphere inside is amazing and is always a go to carry out for me and my partner read more

Phenomenal. Unique flavor combos and one of the gyros in the city. Wish they were open later!

The food is great and the people doing counter service were really nice. However, the prices are high ($10 for 2 small tacos), then they tag on another 15% for "quality of life," and ask for a tip on top of that. Ended up being $13 for 2 tacos as I didn't realize that I basically already tipped them. read more

Great halloumi tacos but the music is alway too loud and the tables are dirty. Employees show up in their pajamas and thank that's okay. If they got their s*** together they could be great. read more

My teen daughters stopped at the LP location for lunch on a Saturday. They asked the woman at the counter if they had anything they my youngest could eat safely, she has food allergies to eggs and nuts. This woman was was amazing at helping and guiding her to foods that were safe. She knew that since brunch was going on, nothing on the grill would be safe from eggs. She recommended shawarma with no aioli sauce (she was familiar with all the ingredients). She took their order and went back in the kitchen and made it herself! She even personally brought the sandwiches out to their table!! It was so good, the girls came home and the highlight of their day was this lunch. Thank you, I really wished they had gotten her name... what a wonderful experience. read more

Seriously so good! I love this place. I went two times while I was in Chicago. Great food.

This is a review of the Time out location. I went there at 1pm on a Tuesday(March 14th) and I was refused service for no reason. I was about to order at Evette's with my 4 year old son by my side. The man manning the booth lied and told me he would not take orders anymore because he would leave soon. I ended up ordering from another stall. However, I noticed that he actually continued taking orders from other people and didn't leave while I dined there. I certainly didn't appreciate the lie and being refused service for no reason at all. I hope this is not a race treatment. read more

this place never disappoints! the food is always made so well and tastes amazing. and even better the staff is always so incredibly nice. Will be coming back!! read more

Really enjoyed the gyro grilled cheese and spicy tabbouleh here! Would definitely order again. Staff was also very friendly and nice.

Oh my gosh! We spent two hours trying to decide where to order birthday dinner from. We've been wanting to try Evette's. So glad we did! This food was AMAZING!! Perfect choice for a non-traditional birthday dinner! read more
