“ Food is delicious and plentiful. Very flavorful. There is just enough cheese in the eggs to get a taste with every bite. French toast and bacon are DELICIOUS ”
“ Straight up soul food place. Without any irony. Modest decor, honest service and a community feel. Venture here for a refreshing change. ”
“ No complaints about any of the dishes or service . They are always pleasant when I get takeout. The fried fish is excellent, the mac and cheese, greens, fried chicken, yams and everything else - and the portions are large. It's like a home cooked meal away from home. ”
“ Noticed the customer awaiting takeout in fuzzy slippers and the church nearby, African-American hero photos on the wall. Figured we were in the right place for quintessential Soul Food. But when I bit into my first piece of fried chicken I could have sworn my grandma was in the kitchen. Brought a tear to my eye and a smile to my lips. Came back the next day to get takeout for the plane ride back to AZ. We will be back. ”
“ Evelyn's might look simple on the outside but don't let that or the comfortable interior fool you -- the soul food is to die for. My wife had the fried catfish, collards, and lima beans and all were delicious. The catfish is a large filet cooked perfectly to brown the light cornmeal batter and leave the fish inside super moist. My meatloaf seemed like a 2 pound portion (no kidding) with that awesome crispy part on some of the edge that you only get with home cooking, and my black eyed peas, collards, and cornbread were excellent. We will be going back for sure! ”
“ Classic soul food restaurant. Good food , good service. They know what they're doing. My buddy got sunny side up eggs and they had double yokes!! Look at the picture. I had eggs, bacon and grits, my wife had Fried fish , eggs and grits. With 3 coffees it was $23. Way cheap. The fried catfish was crazy good. It was $6 lol. Coffee at Starbucks can be more then that. I'm going back for dinner tomorrow! By the way. Yelp has them listed as closed on Saturday. They are open I just came from there. They are located just 2 minuets off of I-95. ”
