Evie's is like the Lafayette Coney Island of Mexicantown. The food is inexpensive and fast and tastes pretty good, but not great. If you're looking for a finer dining experience, head across the street to the Mexican Village Restaurant or Xochimilicos. However, If you're looking for an under $5/plate deal then Evie's is for you.
The tamales are pretty good, although I'm not a huge tamale fan, so I don't have a large base of comparison.
Parking is free behind Mexican Village.
