Evette’s

Evette's is named after my Teta (grandmother in Lebanese), a woman who, in their opinion, is the guiding light of hospitality. It was as if she was born to be a Teta. She lived to feed and care for others. She represented everything good in human nature. Her food was incredible not only because it tasted incredible, but also because even a stranger could tell how much love she put into it for you. That love is now in their food and will be for as long as they serve you. They hope you feel the desire to love you through their food.

Evette's is one of the few places in town that serves loaded pita nachos and halloumi tacos, bridging the gap between Mediterranean flavors and traditional Mexican fare. Mitchell AbouJamra (DMK Group) and Rafa Esparza (Finom) designed the bright, no-reservations storefront, which was named after AbouJamra's grandmother (or teta in Lebanese). The menu delves into Lebanon's many influences on Mexican cuisine with dishes like tender shaved steak served with dates, almonds, and goat cheese. There are plenty of options for vegetarians, including the mushroom veggie melt and the halloumi wrap. With a baklava shake on the menu, dessert is a no-brainer.
