Which is correct - yesterday evening or last evening?
Last night, this morning, this afternoon, this evening, tonight. But what about the evening of yesterday - is it last evening or yesterday evening?

They both sound stupid, just say "last night."

But, if I were forced to choose, I would say, "yesterday evening"

To me "last night" sounds more natural, but "yesterday evening" is just about acceptable. "Last evening" sounds very affected to me.
