Your Complete Guide To Exploring Evanston’s Asian Cuisine

Oct 28, 2022

Asia’s cuisine is broadly divided into many different regions: Central Asian, East Asian, North Asian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and West Asian. But no matter what type of Asian cuisine you’re seeking, you can find it all right here in Evanston – everything from your favorite Boba tea to delicious dumplings to curry to sushi. There is no shortage of diverse food options.

Best yet, the local restaurant owners curate their menus to feature their family traditions and generationally adored cuisines.

South Asia is known for delicious dishes like Momo, Fishballs, Lamb Kheema Samosa, and Naan. And although Devon Street and its plethora of Indian restaurants and shops is a short drive, Evanston has wonderful options – and is the home to Inspired Indian, a shop whose spice mixes can help you make any homemade Indian food almost as easy as takeout.

So, grab a bowl of ramen or a delicious curry during your next lunch break, or perhaps meet up with loved ones for a bountiful dinner.

With nine business districts in Evanston, you can enjoy something delicious all over the city. From a comforting place to sit down and rest, to lively locations for an evening out, there are a plethora of favorite spots that you’ll come to love here. Why not visit one of these spots tonight?
