This is a fairly new establishment that has a LOT of potential. Plenty of parking and it’s small and cozy. Food portions are a bit small for the prices, but they provide a nice variety of food choice for all types of eaters (i.e. fish, chicken. Beef, salads, etc.). Turkey burger is decent. The chicken was yummy and definitely had you craving for more. Service is nice and they are happy to answer any question about the food. It’s definitely worth giving them a try.

This is a neighborhood gem to say the least (BYOB). More business establishments need to go in this area. The customer traffic was steady and diverse. Upon arrival, we were told they no longer serve breakfast and now only serve foods buffet style. Anything fried is cooked fresh, otherwise everything else is already prepared. My friend ordered the shrimp and grits and said it was so amazingly delicious she couldn’t believe it! She went on to say she typically only eats her own, glad she ordered it. So with that being said, it’s highly recommended. My Fiance and I ordered foods to share, the baked chicken, ribs and meatloaf which come with 2 sides. We ordered the mixed vegetables, mashed potatoes and corn on the cobb. The quarter dark peice of chicken and mixed vegetables were good. The ribs could have used a bit more seasoning or bbq sauce. My 2 favorite things we had, the hush puppy and waffle. They told us the waffle didn’t need syrup and they were right! A must try if your in the mood for soul food or something close to home cooking. The moral of the story. Please support local business, especially in areas that are challenged, disadvantaged, etc., it’s the only way we will change our communities if we use our buying power and the resources we have to make a change. Remember, we all have the power to make a difference. :p

Listen!! Evelyn’s Food Love is definitely a hidden gem and now dining hot spot on the South side of Chicago! If I could describe this place in word it would be…FRESH!! The quality of each item on the menu is top-notch…no complaints. The ambiance…FRESH…the customer service…reFRESHing!! I can say that without hesitation because I’ve had just ALMOST everything on the menu.
The moment you enter the place you feel the love and smell the love and passion that is put into preparing each dish. Good things come to those who wait so just know that when it’s crowded you may wait a little longer for your food. It’s not a fast food joint so I don’t expect my food to come out well, ummmm fast. The ambiance is very urban trendy, relaxing chill vibe and the staff from the front to the back are absolutely wonderful.
It’s a great place to visit frequently if you, well ummm…love food. The soul food, seafood, brunch, burgers, etc., etc., etc. are just “fyelicious” goodness!! I implore you to check out this fabulous dining hot spot nestled on State Street in the Washington Park neighborhood.
When you visit Evelyn’s Food Love, please try the following: anything from the “soul” food menu, the catfish po’boy, the apple cilantro turkey burger (Listen, fyeliciousness), and anything from the dessert menu!
I cannot wait to get back there for their weekend brunch and try these peach cobbler and red velvet pancakes I keep hearing about!
I say Kudos to Chef Evelyn and her team for bringing this much needed dining establishment to the South side. Keep doing what you’re doing. I look forward to frequent visits to Evelyn Food Love and each time I go I plan to bring a new guest with me!

Evelyn’s Food Love was my choice for my #Thanksgiving sides. I ordered quarter pans of her yams, garlic green beans, black eye peas & rice, and dressing because I knew everything would be delicious. And it was! Just mouth-watering, finger-licking goodness. I’ve eaten there before and will be back. This holiday season or just because, consider giving yourself a break and allow this #smallbusiness #chef to do the #cooking for you. #PayItForward #SupportBlackBusiness #BlackWomanExcellence

This is an excellent choice for southern comfort food. This restaurant serves a variety of entrees and on Sundays thy offer soul food. Me and my mom had their catfish special and it wasn’t greasy but delicious. The green beans and spaghetti with meat sauce was great. If you are health conscious, particularly with high blood pressure or diabetes, the food is prepared without the extra stuff that would add to those conditions. In other words, it’s low sodium and not over saturated with sugar. I highly recommend the peach cobbler. It was so good. The atmosphere and location of the restaurant was nice and free parking. It was truly a great experience and I will be back.

My cousin and I had the 14 chicken with greens, dressing and sweet potatoes. The ambiance is cozy and home styled. The owner, Evelyn is very warm and hospitable. The staff is friendly and fast. You feel welcomed as soon as you enter. The food was tasty and definitely worth a weekly visit or more.

The food is absolutely delicious…especially the mac and cheese and the greens. Everything is well seasoned and the portions are appropriate for the price. The restaurant itself and the steam table are very clean and well organized. And the staff is friendly and professional. The only thing I did not like is dining in and being served on a paper plate with plastic utensils. I highly recommend this neighborhood spot and will definitely return again.
