Absolutely delicious food and a cozy atmosphere. The service was quick and very friendly. Family owned business. We went there two days in a row, that shows how great this place is. Ordered both savory and sweet, both were a hit.

“Ovo Frito” is a family place. By the name, it reminds us of the fried egg that we Brazilians eat at home with bread. For the food I found there, it brings us the experience of abundance, and flavor, of course. I ate and enjoyed the Vegan Tacos.

I saw the bright yellow patio umbrellas as I was driving home from the Evanston Farmers Market. I HAD to check it out! It is this FUN cafe/restaurant. I was seated at my table and Roberto the owner recommended his favorite item. My server recommended his, also. I selected a brunch item that is named for the other owner, Zinnia! All of the menu items were described deliciosly; and every dish that passed by me as they were being served made me want come back to try them all!

Wonderful discovery, a little north of downtown Evanston. Fantastic variety of selections for breakfast, brunch or lunch. I chose breakfast. One of the omelets. Delicious! Side of bacon was perfectly cooked, not crispy, but meaty and tasty with a hint of maple! Great coffee, too! Will definitely be back as this is now my go-to spot for breakfast.

I would rate this place 10 stars if I could. I’ve been coming here since it opened in 2016, I have gotten the chilaquiles nearly every single time and they have NEVER disappointed (I’ve been here 20+ times). The service has always been great, and on my birthday they even brought me a free French toast (which was AMAZING). Truly cannot recommend this place enough.
