"This classic Greek spot has been a Palo Alto fixture since 1995 and looks straight out of a wine country postcard. Evvia is the sister to Kokkari Estiatorio, and, like its sibling, power lunchers dominate the daytime scene while families and couples are here at night for roasted dishes from the massive hearth—like lemon-oregano rotisserie chicken and souvlaki with onions and tzatziki. The meat always has a caramelized char, and the juices mix with everything on the plate, creating a combination of citrus, fat, and umami that keeps us coming back. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
