Evett (Korean: 에빗) is a fine dining restaurant in Seoul, South Korea. It first opened in 2019, and received one Michelin star from 2020 through 2024[1] and two Michelin stars in 2025.[2] Restaurant Evett was named the winner of the “Best Champagne & Sparkling Wine List for Asia” and “Best Long Wine List for Asia” categories at The World of Fine Wine – Best Wine List Awards 2025.[3] The restaurant incorporates elements of Korean and other cuisines.[4]

Its owner-chef is Joseph Lidgerwood, an Australian from Tasmania.[4][5] He has experience cooking in the United Kingdom, the United States, and in Scandinavia.[5] In 2016, he first arrived in South Korea and opened a pop-up restaurant.[5] Lidgerwood spent time learning to cook Korean cuisine, especially in creating jang (fermented bean foods). He studied under Kisoondo, a jang artisan.[1][5]

The menu reportedly changes seasonally. A liquor brewed by Lidgerwood called "Oh My Gat" is served in the restaurant.[5]
