The previous reviews said it all. The chef is excellent, creative and very tasteful. Every bite was well balanced and cooked perfectly. We had a shrimp appetizer with the best "coleslaw" I've ever tried. It was beautifully plated and delicious. The Halibut came with a mix of vegetables a very unique blend. The Venison and duck were also wonderful.
The desserts are described well elsewhere. All very good.
The ambience and service were great too.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Donna H.Pleasant Hill, CA1430Jun 6, 2025
We were so fortunate to drop by and were able to get an early table. Beautiful restaurant,absolutely wonderful food and service. A very special place to eat! The presentation of the food was outstanding and beautiful. If I could give it six stars, I would.

We went to Evan's for a Saturday night dinner reservation and it was absolutely amazing!
We're usually hesitant to order the daily specials at any restaurant, but the specials looked interesting and server assured us that everything they served would be amazing so we decided to take their word for it...and everything was indeed absolutely delish. They also have a great selection of wines.
Evan's was probably the best dining experiences we had in the area. The service was top notch and the food great. Can't wait to go back next time we're in Tahoe!Helpful 7Thanks 5Love this 7Oh no 0 - 2132941Aug 8, 2024
We loved this place!!! Such a cute little place so it felt very intimate. Service was great and food was even better!!! My boyfriend got the New York steak special and he said it was the best steak he's ever had. Being vegetarian i didn't have a lot of options.. well they did but i am super picky so i just got a salad but the salad was soooo good and refreshing! They had a lot of dessert options and they all sounded yummy so we got the dessert sampler and I'm lad we did because the crème brule was amazing and so were the cheesecakes!

This meal was delicious. My husband got the venison and the potatoes with it was so delectable, seasoned perfectly! I got the salmon which was slightly over cooked and just kinda meh. Cute little spot that was warm and cozy while it was snowing. Called ahead to get reservations for our anniversary dinner. We finished the meal with the dessert sampler and omg that was the best dessert I've had from a restaurant in a long time.

To give Evan's less than a five star would be a travesty. It's not very good, it's great. The small dining room is well appointed. Our table for 2 had a duck and chicken pare with crackers. The service was incredible. Attentive and they care!
I had the rack of lamb and Yan had the roasted quail. We both had the house salad. Just excellent!
Drive here and enjoy. They are closed on Thanksgiving. We willHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1Sep 17, 2024Previous reviewTo give Evan's less than a five star would be a travesty.

Worst upscale dining in Tahoe. Wait staff were terribly clueless regarding the wine selection.
The food was not good. We didn't finish our meals. Skip this place.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 4 - Jan 25, 2024
I came here with a group of 8 on a Saturday and had a wonderful dinner. The restaurant is on the smaller side but the food was exquisite. The restaurant is small and intimate, perfect for a gathering of close friends. It's nice to have conversation in a restaurant and be able to hear everyone. All the dished we ordered came out beautifully presented and tasted so good. Definitely my new favorite restaurant in tahoe!
