First time here and I loved it the moment I walked in. Great vibes, and friendly faces.
This is easily the best Cubano sandwich I have ever had, not to mention the beer.
The star of the show though was our server Ashley P. We showed up with a whole lacrosse team and families, and she handled it without a hiccup. Food was timely, bills were split simply, it couldnt have been better.
Thank you for a great night!

We are from northern Minnesota and visit family about 35 minutes easy of Mishawaka. We go to Evil Czech almost every visit. Our favorite is the lunch tiny plates. This time we went for Sunday dinner. 5 of the 6 of us got drinks and were … More

Evil Czech Brewery is an interesting location. Throw your expectations out the window, this place is in a league of its own. There's a lot of little details between the menu and the ambience of the location itself, and you can tell there was a lot of care and thought put into every detail.
The logo emblem is actually a barbarian, which is the historical Greek term to describe Celtic people/tribes that also settled on the Czech lands during the iron age. It's a unique nod to the ancestral history of the Czech peoples and the owner.
I think our expectation was pub food to some degree, but also hoped for cultural eats as well. Some of the menu items are very unique and not commonly found at other restaurants... however, some items are labeled in a way that you may expect them to be like the industry standard, only for it to be completely different.
They have a menu item called "beer cheese" that they serve with some entrees and appetizers. Industry standard beer cheese is served hot and in golden liquid form... theirs is served cold, thick with cream cheese and beer mixed in for flavor. It is not what we were expecting at all. Not at all. Technically this item is really "pub cheese", which is a cheese spread/dip and served cold. It's delicious.
Their "Nogales Egg Rolls" are essentially Southwest Egg Rolls, and they are tasty! Nogales is a town in Arizona, which is a really unique detail, so there may be some connection.
The interior design of the restaurant is intriguing and very well planned. There's plenty of unique artwork, signage, photos, and furniture. I really have to shout out the owner(s) here because they have incredible vision. I think they have done well to become a staple for visitors and their community, and you can tell how much they genuinely care about their guests.
This is a place you want to spend time at with friends and family. The experience at Evil Czech is something to behold, and I recommend everyone to check it out!

The service was very good. The food tasted good. I felt it was a little over priced for the portion sizes. The atmosphere was cool. I liked the decor. It was very clean. The pretzel appetizers were really interesting. They are long instead of a normal pretzel shape. More

Service is great. Food was delicious. To start we enjoyed the fried green beans and for our mains we had the carne Asada tacos with street corn and the royal with cheese with onion rings. We also enjoyed the Patton Pilsner and a flight of various options. prices are a little steep in our opinion, but food was enjoyable and fresh tasting.

Debating between 2 and 3 stars. Don’t know how this place gets 4.5 stars. Food was edible but not great (and not healthy). Service was Ok but seemed bothered that we were there. Ordered the BAMF, Texas Massacre Burger, Chicken and Waffle … More

1st timers in town for the ND Game and stopped in to check out what this brewery was all about! I don’t think the staff was expecting such a large football crowd for Friday lunch but the place was packed. It was really great to see the hostesses and bartender helping the waitresses hold everything together. I ordered the Caesar salad and the full size was so filling! The dressing is made in house and the salad included fresh artichokes which is hard to find! My partner did the lunch all you can eat and really enjoyed being able to try everything on the menu in smaller portions! He specifically enjoyed the burgers! Overall I would recommend Evil Czech. Staff were friendly, food was good, and the bar atmosphere was cool/well decorated.
