What people say, in short
Evergreen in Jamaica Plain is recommended for breakfast food, with one diner particularly praising the breakfast smash burger. The setting divides opinion: one visitor enjoyed a relaxed meal with friends, while a weekday customer finds the indoor room unpleasant for sitting and talking. Another commenter dislikes its breakfast potatoes. It is better supported as a food pick than as a universally comfortable place to linger.
