    I do recommend this place, especially for brunch, but don’t order the cheese plate. Really bad quality.

    Excellent meal and service. Cozy setting with adequate table lighting. Recent Washington Post review was top notch so that moved us to check out Evelyn Rose after months of procrastination! I love that the tasting menu items can be 1) ordered a la carte and 2) not all diners need to choose that menu. More restaurants need to follow their lead. We will return for Happy Hour, always a nice way to save a few bucks. Hats off to the team, front and back of the house.

    We had dinner this evening before a theatre event and everything about our experience was terrific. Our waiter was attentive throughout our meal and the food was delicious. One of our party used to live in Italy and he commented that the food was as good as in the native country. i highly recommend this restaurant to others and we will definitely visit again.
