Or maybe you didn’t come for Mediterranean food, and you want some fries or onion rings! Don’t worry, Evelyn’s has got you covered. Appetizers are for sharing, or saving some to bring home with you! Take out, or delivery is an option, but then you’ll miss out on the beautiful ambiance.

Evelyn’s has the authentic Mediterranean cuisine and freshest ingredients of all the New Brusnwick Restaurants. It’s the perfect place for business lunches or meeting up with friends. Also doubles as an intimate date setting or group hangout spot. Big parties should make reservations to ensure that the host can accommodate them swiftly and smoothly. They do private events as well and have a catering menu with a wide assortment of items to choose from!

Unlike, other places in town their food doesn’t come frozen or in giant buckets. It’s not a cuisine you can pop in the microwave. In a world of increasingly fast-paced food, Evelyn’s is a place where you can sit down and savor your meal, but more importantly thoroughly enjoy your company and surroundings as well. Look, you choose. You can come for the scrumptious food or beautiful ambiance but stay because of the warm community atmosphere.

Private outdoor events

Happy Hour specials and our outdoor patio

Dress up or down for the happy hour! Our bartenders are friendly, extremely sociable and well equipped to handle large crowds! The outdoor bar stays open late as they mix up endless varieties of cocktails!

Walk through the alley to the outdoor patio and enter a picturesque scene: twinkly lights, cherry blossom trees, and a gazebo style bar at the center of it all. Here you can soak up the sun, seek shade from it or bathe in the moonlight!

Versatility is one of the reasons people love Evelyn’s above all the other New Brunswick restaurants!

The crowds tend to be people who work in offices in the area or at the hospital but make no mistake college kids come to fraternize here too!

Happy hour is the perfect time to unwind after a long day of work, and Evelyn’s is the ideal place to find some peace and calm.

The locals refer to the outdoor patio as New Brunswick’s “oasis.” It’s where to find beauty and tranquility in the middle of a bustling city. While the city pulsates, Evelyn’s is the place to pause and take a breath.

Restaurant’s history

Without Evelyn, there wouldn’t be an Evelyn’s. She’s just the namesake and prior owner, however, the current owner Naji and his family have transformed the place into the Oasis of New Brunswick restaurants.

Evelyn’s menu has a wide variety of dishes and drinks to accommodate any taste bud or diet! Omnivore, carnivore, herbivore, vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten-free.. Evelyn’s has got something for you!

Evelyn’s is a Lebanese restaurant owned by Lebanese immigrants which is one of, but not the only, reasons why the cuisine is so authentic.

Customers can choose between a warm, cozy, sunset-hued indoor dining room or outdoor seating amongst the trees and twinkly lights.

Naji and his family have been the owners for over 20 years, but if you trace this place back to its origins, you’ll learn that the original owner was a chef named Evelyn. Everybody loved her food, but she was perhaps more renowned for her kindness. Then, Naji and his family took it over. It went from a one-woman show to a family business. The family made an incredible difference, transforming it into the inviting and welcoming environment which it is known to be.
