Evening Star Cafe

The most Judas Priest-inspired restaurant name since You've Got Another Wing Coming Chicken Shack, Evening Star (third track on Hell Bent for Leather, look it up) is now back after renovation with a 60-seat dining room retro'd-out 1950s diner-style, and serving mod American entrees like buttermilk fried chicken with braised collards, crispy black drum and sautéed Brussels sprouts, dry-aged duck breast, and dirty rice with chicken livers.
