My place when I need to decompress from a long week of work. A comfy and cozy place with great Mediterranean food. Ah, have you tried the salmon sandwich yet? My fave. Check out the cappuccino too (I'll leave a pic below.)

I love Evelina: the lunch, the brunch, the dinner. Inside, outside, the bar - whatever. I even fondly remember the to-go cocktails during the pandemic. Service has always been efficient and friendly. Today, Kathleen, made our meal a true treat! So thoughtful and personable. Thanks to the staff for always making Evelina a tried and true neighborhood gem. See you soon.

The food is out of this world—flavor, texture, and portions are perfect. Our waiter was very attentive and gave us excellent recommendations for both wine and food. The atmosphere is romantic, with beautiful décor. We got the lentil soup, and steak tartare for appetizers and vegetarian lasagna and pappardelle for main

I walked away from this restaurant reminded how much a great meal contributes to a great evening. i have eaten at most of the top restaurants within a mile or so of here and this Evelina ranks among the best. The plates reflect a chef that understands flavor combinations extremely well, the servers are kind without being intrusive or over the top, the atmosphere is exactly what you want from a Fort Greene dining experience.

Wow food was amazing. I always find italian pastas too be too salty but here the texture of noodles and the flavors were amazing. Oxtail ragu pappardelle - the oxtail literally melts in your mouth. I usually dont like ragu pappardelle bc usually I find it very dry but this was amazing. Squid ink spagetti was also so great mix of seafood and also perfect balance of flavors. Tiramisu is a MUST!! im very picky with my tiramisu and it was soft moist and super creamy the perfect ratio a tiramisu should have. Evan our server was great. There was a big group next to us so it was a bit loud so was had to raise our voices but overall restaurant atmosphere is filled with beautiful paintings but is on the smaller side. I will definitely back to try other dishes very soon :)

Stopped here by chance on a lovely fall Sunday morning. Beautifully located on the corner of the street, the outdoor seating area gets abundant sun in the am. Drip coffee was terrific and was refilled for me. The lemon scone was phenomenal - warm with crispy bits and a moist interior served with a sharp lemon custard and dense whip cream. Was tempted to try a bunch of other stuff I saw arriving at tables next to me, but ran out of time. Did visit the inside which was both elegant and cozy. Service was outstanding. Highly recommend!

I had an absolutely fantastic time. Evelina never disappoints. The food is always amazing and our waiter was extremely accommodating and attentive to all food allergies. The first time I had their pancakes I had to go back for more! The squid in risotto is also my favorite item on the dinner menu.

Super cute outdoor seating and great place for brunch near Fort Greene park. Service was good, ambiance was good, and food was good (the black sea bass was fresh & flavorful). Great place for brunch with friends if you don’t have reservation.

Delicious is an understatement. It was 2 of us that went for brunch. I opted for the egg Benedict which came with prosciutto (which i do not eat), but the kindly gave me the option to switch it to salmon. Couldn't have made a better choice. Long story short, go here and enjoy the delicious food they serve!

Delish little restaurant. Oxtail ragu was lovely. Perfect al dente texture, if you were wondering. Tons of indoor & outdoor seating. They have a gelato bar. Easy to walk in on a Saturday at 2pm.

Cozy vibe, friendly and quick service, with good brunch carbs and seafood option. We loved the Charred Spanish Octopus and Ravioli though the dessert was not that impressive. Overall, will come back again.

Walked in restaurant Saturday at 6pm, got two seats at the bar without a reservation. Food was good, drinks were too - bartender was nice but seemed a bit overwhelmed. Hostess was so nice, she was pregnant but hustling to service us and speak to us :) (thank you) Vibes were great! Would go back Paid +$250 for two so it is expensive

First, I want to commend the culinary team here. The food was truly exceptional, particularly the chanterelle ravioli pasta and the NYC strip. The cocktails were also excellent. However, the service we received is close to tragedy. While our server seemed to be pleasant gay dude, there was a noticeable lack of attentiveness and interest throughout the entire visit. We had absolutely no interaction, beside when placing our initial food order. We experienced zero follow-ups regarding our drinks or food, nor any general check-ins. This lack of engagement resulted in us waiting approximately 20 minutes to order dessert, which is completely unnecessary. We end up tipping 20% because we plan to come back but this should not be a service standard for the restaurant of this caliber.

We sat on the patio and had a great experience. Marisa was our server, who was extremely knowledgeable of the entire menu, and her wine and food recommendations were fantastic. The ambience was relaxed yet refined, with dim lighting and ample space between tables—perfect for a date or catch up with friends. Gelato stand is a great way to round the night out.

Alon Juwal

Evelina nails the ambiance—it’s a beautifully cozy, dimly lit spot that feels effortlessly romantic, perfect for date night or an intimate dinner with friends. The service is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, adding to the overall great vibe of the place. Unfortunately, the food doesn’t quite live up to the setting. While nothing was outright bad, most dishes felt a bit underwhelming and lacked the flavor or finesse you’d hope for at this price point. The crudo was a bit meaty and chunky and the bread and dips felt more like a greek dish than an Italian one which felt out of place. The tiramisu was great. Still, if you’re looking for a charming atmosphere and great hospitality, Evelina is worth a visit—just don’t go in expecting a culinary knockout.

Excellent neighborhood spot. Food was delicious and everything we ordered was pretty good. Nothing out of the ordinary but the quality of the food was really good and menu had a good variety of items. The steak, halibut and zucchini flowers were probably the most memorable dishes. I thought the pastas could have been a bit better seasoned. Really enjoyed it and would recommend and go back!

This neighborhood spot has such great charm to it. We came on a snowy night and it had such beautiful cozy vibes. The art and the decor was lovely. The service was really great, we came with the party of four and we were there just under 2 1/2 hours. Everything is very unique, I think our favorite was the mushroom pasta, as well as the olive oil cake.

Evelina has a lovely ambiance and aesthetic—perfect for a nice night out in Brooklyn. Unfortunately, the food didn’t quite live up to the setting. The ravioli and calamari were just okay, nothing memorable. The biggest letdown was the tiramisu—it lacked depth of flavor and just tasted overwhelmingly sweet, more like sugar than dessert. With such a great atmosphere, I had high hopes, but the food left much to be desired.
