I came here to eat because it's black owned and there was no one inside, so I ordered the oxtail plate that cost 30.00 bucks and the lady started picking though the ox tails like there was a rush of people. I got maybe 5 small oxtail and a scoop of beans and yams. Will not go back.

The best way to describe this food is authentic. It is delicious, but if you're thinking about eating healthy, look elsewhere. The staff is super friendly, very informative, and even gave me a sample (smaller plate) that had pork chop, oxtail, and baked chicken. I wanted chicken, initially, but the oxtail got me on the first bite. Oxtail over mashed potatoes, some greens, and okra ?. I'm glad I'm hours away from this place because I'd have a hard time staying away. I plan on coming back to try other things. If you want something different, something authentic and real...then stop by.

Visited Evelyn’s 12/17/2023 and it’s still great! I had a fish plate which was seasoned and fried perfectly, Mac & cheese & cabbage!! She was even so sweet to throw in a side of dressing for me and that was a 10/10! Keep it up Mrs. Evelyn? I used to be a regular but I moved but I still make my way to see her when I’m passing thru!! Definitely reminded me of old times.

A friendly environment with great staff and delicious food. We ordered the baked chicken and Pig feet along with various sides and corn bread. The beverages were delightful and took me back to being a child eating at moms house. I will definitely be returning to try the rest of the delicious menu.

I'll definitely be back. I ordered oxtails with rice and gravy with corn and green beans. They were easily some of the best oxtails I've ever had, and the sides were divine. My gf ordered the smothered pork chops and they were amazingly delicious. We even got to sample other items since it was our first time and it was close to closing time. Evelyn's has a repeat customer in me. Try it for yourself. It's a nice daytrip destination from Houston.
