The restaurant is co-owned by chef Curtis Duffy and his business partner Michael Muser, respectively former head chef and general manager at Grace, a 3-star Michelin restaurant that was abruptly closed in December 2017 after the duo's offer to buy the restaurant was rejected by its investor-owner.

Fictionalised version in The Bear

A fictionalized version of Ever, filmed in the actual restaurant but shown to have a different and significantly longer history, was featured in the TV series The Bear during the second-season episode "Forks". [9] Ever also featured prominently in the season-three finale "Forever." [10] The fictionalized Ever, now closed in-universe, was led by British chef Andrea Terry (Olivia Colman) and had three Michelin stars. Co-owner Duffy told ABC 7 news, "We were featured. The food...was Ever's, the plating...All of that was done by myself and the team. They got those scenes from us, from emulating us, because the amount of detail that we put in everything every single day from the moment we get here to the moment we leave is...very much true to what that storyline is." [11]
