Lincoln Highway Tavern - Sloppy joe and chili verde!  Yummm

My wife and I were just passing through on our way from Denver to our home in Boise. We stayed at…read morethe Holiday Inn Express in Evanston(another review)and asked Weston, the evening clerk at the hotel, where to eat. He recommended the Lincoln Highway Tavern. We walked in at about 9:40 pm. The kitche closes at 10. We wouldn't have been surprised to be turned away, but the wonderful woman covering the bar and kitchen, forties, glasses, dark hair, was very friendly and gracious. She also took excellent care of us, despite really having to hustle. I had the pulled pork tacos and my wife had the teriyaki wings. The tacos(I ordered two)were stuffed with pulled pork that was very tasty, and came with crema, a sweet relish salsa, and cheese(a slight upcharge). My tacos came with tortilla chips that were crispy and well salted. My wife liked her wings. If we're passing through again, we would definitely stay in Evanston and have a meal at Lincoln Highway Tavern.

Here again having lunch at the only place I eat when I'm in town…read more Today I had the Bison sloppy Joe with onion rings. It was very good. Hints of sweet sauce with sautéed onions and peppers. The onion rings were perfect and delicious... as always the service is on point. Warm greeting, assuring the new arrival they will be take of soon. On Sundays, football fans root for their teams... highly spirited fans.

All of those things mixed together and twisted and pulled into a sweet singular strand of small town taffy. We bellied up to the bar later than we had hoped, in mid-afternoon. We met the current manager who explained the history of the spot, and while it's a little spotty, they've been around a long time in one form or another. She was related somehow to the original owner and it's passed through generations of families. There are strange gifts, new gifts, a lunch counter, booths, and a small menu board. We came in post-hike and got burgers because of course you get burgers. I can sum up the vibe of the food and the whole experience thusly: ME: "Wow, this tomato looks like it came from the garden." HER: "Ya, we get them from a guy who grows them for us. He's actually my old history teacher." Local, small, quirky, but very very delicious. Simple. I'm off shakes but by dining partner got one and it filled the cavity well. You have to stop in here when in Roosevelt. It's small town history teacher tomato good.

One of the only places that coffee didn't disappoint, wanted strong coffee and got it . Food was beyond good, huge and great for pricing, was stacked full but we got our food way quick. Definitely coming back when I come around again! Cashier was cool too. Environment was crowded but oh well.

We were seated at a table in far end of the room. Once seated it's hard to get in and out from the wall seat because the table are pretty close together. I ordered the Spinach, Mushroom and Swiss 4 Egg Omelet. They asked me if I wanted 2 or 4 eggs and I chose 4. As a substitute for the potatoes, I opted to choose the avocado which came as a slice 1/2 of avocado. For my toast option, I chose the single pancake, but could also have chosen a scone. The scone wasn't on the menu as a option, so I missed this when I ordered. My omelet was very flavorful, although a bit dense. I attributed that to the 4 eggs fitting into a 2 egg form factor, but I really don't know that for sure. The avocado was a good complement to the omelet and worked out very well. The pancake was delicious. There was syrup on the table and butter came on the plate. I gobbled it right down and thought that I maybe should have got another one. I have eaten here before when I was in the area, and will likely return again when up here. The busy nature of the restaurant is offset by the good quality food.

In fact the morning breakfast room had talk from other people of how great dinner was... We were not disappointed! We asked what was recommended and our server Sarah had a whole list of things that she thought we might like... We found out that they make all their own homemade sauces and dressing... And she wasn't wrong... There were six of us and we enjoyed crisp, fresh salad, and the dressings were amazing. I had blue cheese and it was just a perfect amount of blue cheese and dressing... Our friends had the Stromboli and they wolfed it down. They said it was really good and you can choose between homemade marinara or homemade ranch or both. My friend and I had the same calzone filled with all kinds of deliciousness... I have to say it was probably the best calzone I have eaten the reason why is because I don't know what they do to their crust but it's light. It's not so heavy and. "doughy".. in fact, it was so good that my husband wants to go back for lunch tomorrow and get his own calzone... He chose to get the lasagna and gosh that came out in its own skillet and it was bubbling and looked fantastic. He ate every little bit of it and said it was absolutely absolutely delicious. We had a great time at Gio's and the place was clean and cozy and has quite quite a bit of seating so it was really comfortable....

We took Chicken Alfredo Pasta and Side Salad. You get to choose a salad dressing too. Honey mustered is always my favourite! Pasta tasted so good! The amount was so much that I couldn't finish. - It's a cozy well decorated place, the restrooms are clean, people are so cordial. - Definitely loved the experience. And I recommend this restaurant.
