Yum, we stopped in on a whim late Friday evening and had a very nice meal. We started with Fried Green tomatoes and a cup of gazpacho. Both were very good, not your typical flavor notes but we would absolutely get them again. My husband had the chicken pot pie, with greens as a side. He ate every bite (aside from the ones I stole) and said he would get them again. I had the vegetable tagine, it was very tasty. We finished with Key lime pie and a Portaguese custard tart. We will be stopping in when we are in the area.

I wasn't hungry so I ordered the fried green tomatoes. My waiter seemed disappointed and he never came back to my table to see if everything was okay. The 3 tomatoes were good but very thinly sliced and too pricey. I talked to the manger about the waiter and he said he would talk to him. I was not satisfied with that response but I just paid and left. ( I have been a customer off and on for years)

We've been meaning ta come ta this restaurant fer months, and now that we've finally made it, all I can say is I'm sorry we didn't make it sooner. The food is SOOOOOO GOOD!!!! They have an eclectic, interesting menu, and rotating specials, so you'll have plenty of reasons to revisit this establishment. The prices are reasonable, the service is excellent, the decor is quirky and fun (random paintings of random people and animals made of various metal objects, fer example), and they're extra careful about cleanliness, so you'll be at ease in every regard, with plenty of reasons ta come back. Protip: if you have leftovers, make sure ta get a large bag; there's a pantry on yer way out where you pay chock full of a variety of tasteh treats ta purchase and enjoy at home! We're gonna make this place a weekly visit! *updated 5/7/22* The above review still holds. We're not here weekly like we had originally anticipated, but that's more due ta lack of money than it is anything else; it's not a reflection on the restaurant at all. We still love it every time we're able ta visit!

Excellent pancakes, eggs and coffee. Glazed bacon is very good. Chef wait staff and front desk personal are a notch above. More like Ritz Carlton service mixed with warmth and humor.

we do not take reservations for brunch - although, if you call in the morning on your way in and give us a heads up for how many in your party we always do our best to plan for your arrival. parties under 4/5 people you really don't have to - anything over that - a call is never a bad idea! I hope this helps!

Where is the best place to park for Lucky Platter Restaurant in Evanston, Illinois

yeah, street parking is really the way to go - thanks to everyone for the tips! Hinman does have free street parking and up and down Chicago Ave and on Main street there are metered parking spaces. There is also a pay lot on Hinman just south of the Main intersection that has a few metered spots as well. Please do not park in/beneath the residential building immediately west (entrance across the alley) of the the restaurant as was suggested as they have a sign stating that parking is intended for their customers only and they say that they will tow! thanks for the question and we hope to feed you soon!!
