I found a bolt in my collard greens and was asked if I wanted another side. The correct answer would I like a refund. First and last time here. And I highly do not recommend.

I visited Evelyn’s while in town for work and thought is was great. The staff was very friendly and the meatloaf on white bread with gravy reminded me of how my grandma made it back in the 70’s, spectacular. Also scored a piece of lemon cake and strawberry cake. Both of which were moist, very tasty, and sell out quickly. I will most likely get another piece before I leave for home.

Great prices especially the daily specials – fish sandwich, soda and chips for $5! Food was delicious, vibes were so cute like eating at home, and the service was quick and friendly. Will definitely be back!

3 stars only because of the chicken… They have some good fried chicken..Fresh big size pieces… Seasoned nicely… The chicken was the best part and i would go back solely for that…I would not recommend the cake… It tasted like flour.. it was super thick and dry.. no flavor at all.. nice large piece but no flavor at all except flour… Wasnt able to eat it at all… The yams were edible so were the greens and green beans.. tasted like way too much vinegar but edible… The mac and cheese gets ZERO stars.. do not order it… It tasted like box.. no cheese.. noodles tasted weird.. it tasted like margarine salt and pepper.. no cheese at all… Had to spit it out and trash it.. kids couldn’t and wouldn’t even eat it… Overall.. if u want some good chicken.. I would recommend.. I guess this is a hit or miss type of store.. u have to catch them on a good day

1/23/2022 was my first visit to Evelyn’s Soul Food. The staff was great down to the little guy at the door. I ordered 2 platters Baked Chicken & Flounder. However I was not happy with the food. The Mac & cheese was too salty, the potato salad was bland and the baked chicken was not good nor was the gravy that was on the baked chicken. The greens were bitter and flounder could use more seasoning. I feel like this was the end of the food since they were closing in an hour, however the taste should still be the same. My meals cost $35, I should have spent that at the market and made my own dinner. I guess this was the price I paid for being lazy. Maybe I caught them on a bad day.

Whenever you’re in Wilmington and you have a taste for soul food, I would suggest you check out Evelyn’s. Their food is great and the prices are reasonable. When I walked into the restaurant, I thought I was back in the past! It had a 1960s feel to it and the booths were antique looking with the coat hangers attached. The environment was amazing and the food was just as awesome!

I ordered fish, grits and eggs platter on DoorDash with home fries. Let me tell you everything was seasoned too perfection . The grits of course were not seasoned because everyone does grits differently. My order was still hot. They do breakfast right and the price amazing.
