Dixie Kitchen Evanston was born from a simple idea: to share the comforting, soulful flavors of the South with our Northern neighbors. Since opening, we've been serving meals that bring people back to their roots—or help them discover something new. From slow-cooked favorites like red beans and rice to crispy fried green tomatoes and warm peach cobbler, every dish tells a story of heritage, family, and flavor.

Step inside and you'll find more than just great food—you’ll find a space that feels like home. Our restaurant captures the easygoing spirit of a Southern roadside eatery, filled with charm, character, and friendly faces. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or gathering with loved ones, we aim to make every visit comfortable, relaxed, and memorable.

We’re proud to call Evanston home and to be part of such a vibrant, diverse community. At Dixie Kitchen, we believe in real food, real people, and real hospitality. No matter where you’re from, when you sit at our table, you’re part of the family.
