“A perfect dining choice in the middle of the Magnificent Mile. The service was top-notch from start to finish, and the menu had great options that we all loved. We had a fantastic time and will definitely be returning”
“What a great experience ! Lashai was our waitress and she was so kind! 10/10 give this woman a raise! Not only is she excellent at her job, but she is just a sweet human being! The guava girl was so tasty! Mussels and clams were so tasty! Our sons enjoyed the prime rib sammie and grilled cheese! The volcano roll was soooo good paired with the Thai salad. Visiting from FL, we WILL be back! Thank you so much Lashai! 🩷”
“Classy place but not pretentious at all. Got the steak frittes with carrots instead of fries. The smoked carrots were amazing. Skirt steak was fantastic and perfectly done. Did not regret skipping the ribeye at all. Wife’s wedge with the best bacon- and kids cheese was spot on for a sometimes picky eater.”
“Absolutely fantastic! Food was amazing! Smoked carrots... Delish! I would probably go for just those! Will definitely return!”
“Absolutely love The Evie! The ambiance is so cozy and the bar is one of the best spots in the house. The bartenders, Jose and Danny, could not have been more welcoming and made wonderful drinks and recommendations! The food is top notch- the spinach artichoke dip, cornbread, fresh hand cut fries, and pressed sushi are not to be missed! The bread pudding for dessert was the perfect ending as well. Highly recommend for lunch, dinner, or their fantastic happy hour at the bar on weekdays.”
“We had a fantastic supper! Ricky was awesome - never missed a beat and had great recommendations. I'm not usually a bread person, but...get their bread!!! It is so good. It has kind of a crunchy top and it's super soft in the middle. It comes with a delicious spread to put on it. We got the smoked carrots & beets and they were just amazing. Our entrees were really good too! I had the French Dip and again, the bread is crazy good and it was just a really good meal overall. We had a couple of fun drinks and enjoyed every minute of it! We'll definitely be coming back! (sorry for the bad photo--that's all we had left...this time I ate before my phone ;-) )”
“Second time coming and the service was great as always, which is exactly why I came back. The staff is friendly, attentive, and keeps things moving without making you feel rushed. We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip again and it did not disappoint, hot, creamy, and perfect for sharing. For drinks, the Evie Cosmo was crisp and well-balanced, not overly sweet, and the mocha martini was smooth and honestly dessert in a glass. The vibe is fun, the service is consistently solid, and everything we had was on point. The Evie is officially a repeat spot for me.”
“I love this restaurant. We visit when ever we're in Chicago!!!”
“Damn this place was good. Got the herb roasted half chicken and it was delicious. Great service & atmosphere too”
“Such a wonderful experience at The Evie! Our server gave us incredible service and all the staff were very friendly. The mocha martini was amazing along with the salmon and the steak frites. They really made our anniversary one to remember.”
“Highly recommend The Evie. We went for dinner after being able to get a last minute reservation (although later than we would have liked). The food was amazing. We both got the fish sandwich and the coleslaw was fantastic. The drinks were good and the atmosphere was friendly. We would definitely go back.”
