"Evette’s is a counter-service Lebanese-Mexican cafe in Lincoln Park that could be somewhere in the Sonoran Desert. This casual restaurant is all geometric floors and brightly painted brick, and when the sun beams through the windows, sitting at the counter can feel like a day on the beach. The short menu has a handful of options like bowls and wraps, but the standouts are anything involving the smoky chicken shawarma, the not-too-oily, well-spiced falafel, or the fantastic tacos on soft little pita-tortilla hybrids stuffed with halloumi or chicken arabes. Most people get their food to go, but it’s worth the risk of sunburn to dine in—the baklava ice cream can help you cool off." - john ringor, adrian kane, veda kilaru
