Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

Not really great. Maybe Green Garden was so bad that in comparison Evergreen was looking worthy of a lot of praise (??) / I don't know what I was thinking last time I reviewed Evergreen so I wanted to update. I used to like to order the mixed vegetables combo platter, but most times I ordered it, the mixed vegetables smelled kind of funky (rotten funky) and that kind of freaked me out so I haven't ordered from here in a long time. It smells so good whenever I walk on that block that I am occasionally tempted to stop in, but then I remember the rotten vegetables and keep walking.

Best delivery chinese in West Philly. The food is fantastic, delivery is fast, amazing vegan, and the cleanest kitchen I've ever seen.

I had an intense craving for Chinese food and found that Evergreen had good ratings on Grubhub. I see why! The General Tso's was reasonably priced and tasty. I was also very impressed by how quickly they had my order ready once I placed it online. I would definitely go here again!

I think this place hits the right spot when you're being a gluttonous slob at home watching movies or catching up on your latest T.V. shows. Portions are generous, taste is okay, and the delivery fee is cheap compared to other places on Grubhub. I like their roast pork fried rice and their steamed dumplings. Their lo-mein is okay (fried rice is better), and their entrees are also generously portioned and above-average for takeout. This place is definitely not sit-in but take-out and delivery only, though dining in is probably not entirely out of the question.

They really got my delivery order wrong. I ordered vegetarian chow mein and general tso's tofu and asked for no broccoli on anything because I am allergic. They delivered chow mein and sweet and sour tofu- both with broccoli. It also took about 1.5 hours to get here and I live less than a mile away. The food quality was pretty low but wasn't horrendous- hence the 2/5. Best China Inn seems to be the way to go in West Philly

I'll say it: I'm starting to really like this place. This is not the most authentic or innovative Chinese restaurant, but Evergreen is great at what it does - cheap, fast, tasty American-style Chinese food. I always get the pork chow fun and an hot and sour soup, it's always delivered to me piping hot, and it always tastes really good. I will continue to return to Evergreen for all my greasy-delicious Chinese food needs. One star off on principle for being cash only (WHY, PHILADELPHIA), but you can order with a credit card on Grubhub and they'll deliver it to your house!

Until a few nights ago, I had "cheap Chinese takeout" filed under the same mental list as pizza, flash mobs, and public transportation.* However, I am proud to report that it has been refiled. It has now joined libraries, consignment shops, and bicycle lanes.** Their vegetables are fresh, they're open late (11pm on weekends), and they're better than the other abysmal options on this side of the Schuylkill. Cash only; be prepared to order through bullet proof glass. *Things Philly Can't Get Right. **Things that Philly Sometimes Does Adequately, Provided You're Not Too Picky

On second thought (/taste), this is actually the best hole-in-the-wall Chinese takeout place in West Philadelphia. I realize that's like saying "This is the girl with the least strains of herpes in the entire whorehouse", but it's true.

Well, I gave Evergreen another chance during finals week when I didn't feel like cooking. Their food has gone even further downhill. The sauce on my chicken with broccoli was gloopy, there was a wet napkin inside my spring roll bag that was stuck to my food, and lastly, the chicken with broccoli made me incredibly sick. I should have just thrown it out. Ugh...

Found this restaurant after ordering from a lot of Chinese delivery places. Evergreen has been the best in UC for chinese takeout. My roommates and I have been ordering from here probably once or twice a week for over a year. Their delivery is extremely fast, granted I only live 5 blocks away and I'm sure they know every person in my house by now. Crab rangoons, scallion pancakes, and the general tso's are staple, but everything I have had there has been good. Portions will not leave you hungry and prices are relatively cheap with combo platters around $7.50. I would avoid going there is person because the restaurant is not very appealing and there is no seating.

Ordered delivery food from here. Came two and a half hours after I placed the order. I only tip delivery drivers for good service and didn't think being almost three hours late deserved a tip. The driver rudely refused to give me the food without a tip.
(1)Brenen G.
Best Chinese food in west Philadelphia. Delivery is always on time. Ordered in the middle of hurricane sandy and was awesome. Try the orange chicken
(5)J J.
The food was bland and in a big sticky glop. I got chow fun but the noodles were all stuck together in big lumps, which made it hard to eat and not very satisfying, because the noodles in the middle of the lump had barely any sauce on them. The sauce was also pretty bland. They did fix it quickly. It wasn't horrid, just kind of blah and dissatisfying. I have not returned for a 2nd try.

This is my go-to chinese delivery place in west philly. They have online ordering (I use foodler.com when I order from them) and are always polite when they deliver even when I dont hear my phone ring when they call (oops! :x) I usually order the chicken with broccoli, shrimp with broccoli (my brother called this dish Amazing and he's picky) or the boneless spare ribs (I ask the chef not to make it too crispy). Low minimum at $8 and the ice tea is great - I usually add water cause its super sweet.
(4)Adrian F.
I live a block away from Evergreen, and even after trying other west philly chinese spots, this is still my favorite. The food is fresh and tastes good, is not greasy, and the service is quick. Not to mention cheap. Look, it's not fine cuisine. But when you need cheap and quick chinese - Evergreen fulfills that need and has some great healthy options. Sesame chicken and soups are especially recommended.
(4)Julia C.
I enjoyed the Mei fun noodles, they are light and not too salty or greasy. This is my go to chinese food item and restaurant now.

Let me begin this review by saying I'm sort of a Chinese food snob. There's a restaurant in Chicagoland that I grew up with, and short of the REAL thing, I've pretty much limited myself to this Chinese restaurant and no other. Over the last ten or twelve years, I've tried on a few occasions other Chinese restaurants around wherever I live at the time, and I'm always disappointed. And then I get angry that I spent the money in the first place, because I knew I'd be disappointed before I ordered. But I moved to Philly in the midst of this awful heat wave, and don't have air conditioning throughout my apartment, and Evergreen is just a few minutes' walk from where I live, and I'll be damned if I was going to try to continue to cook in 100+ degree heat. The reviews looked good. I thought, "What the hell. It's cheap. Let's... try." Am I glad I did. A solid four stars, if you take averages. In terms of ALL Chinese food ever, probably 3. But in terms of cheap Chinese delivery/carry-out? This is easily the best I've ever had. The fried rice was GOOD - none of that peas and carrots BS, just bean sprouts and onions and all that good stuff. The gravy in my dish was a little yellow, and that threw me because I wasn't expecting it, but it was really tasty. Food was not greasy at all. Meat was thoroughly cooked but not dry or rubbery. Everything tasted very fresh. I'm looking forward to experimenting with the menu, now that I know my old reliable turns out tasty. Did I mention I spent $14.95 and ate for four days? Well, three and a half. Portions are huge. I don't know, this place seems almost too good to be true. Definitely my Go-To spot for cheap Chinese food. BE ADVISED: Yelp lies. They do not accept plastic - it is a CASH ONLY business. There's an ATM in the place, but the surcharge on the machine is like, a buck-seventy-five or something. So just a heads up. Have your cash ready or be prepared to pay the ATM. Edit: I also want to add the disclaimer that my review may be tainted by my utter shock and pleasant surprise at getting not only edible, but actually pretty good food from a Chinese take-away place.

Best Chinese delivery in University City I've tried so far. Definitely less greasy when compared to the alternatives, and the food tastes fresher overall. Prices are close to the other popular choices, maybe $1-$2 more.
(3)Chard X.
The quintessential example of great American-Chinese takeout! General Tso's was delightfully crunchy and actually spicy for once! Dumplings were substantial and my vegetables were clearly fresh. Wonton broth was light and refreshing. The prices are very reasonable and portions are generous. Overall, best American-Chinese food I've had in the city. I will be ordering from Evergreen again and again. UPDATE: The Singapore Chow Mai Fun is to die for!

I've been trying to find a palatable Chinese place in West Philly. I used to live in New York and was spoiled at the quality of Chinese food. When I moved here, everywhere I tried was not up to par. This is by far the best Chinese restaurant in W. Philly. I've tried most of them now and this stands as my favorite. The reason? The food is freshly made and their ingredients are fresh. You can taste the crispiness of freshly fried sesame chicken and the crunch of fresh veggies. Given what it is (a cheap Chinese delivery place), it's tops in my book.
(4)Christina B.
Great...fast...cheap Chinese delivery. Nice sized portions. Try the cold sesame noodles and the homeade ice tea
(4)Caitlin S.
Tried this place because they deliver out to my job in far West Philly. So happy I did! Check out their chow fun and lo mein - both excellent. Just remember this is take-out chinese, so keep your expectations realistic. This is my new favorite place for quick cheap Chinese in West Philly!
(4)Charles T.
My friend and I had Evergreen last week and we were not at all impressed by the flavor or presentation of our selections. I had shrimp and broccoli (the shrimp tasted like cardboard) and my friend had peppersteak and onions (2 pieces of steak and an infinite amount of onions). Verdict: NOT AGAIN!!

In my 2+ years of enjoying Evergreen I've only ordered from them online but my experience with this restaurant has been fantastic. The food arrives steaming hot, always earlier than the estimated time, and in box-bursting portion sizes. The lunch special is a very good deal and goes until 3pm on weekdays. For my last order, the Szechuan Beef arrived with generous slices of tender beef with mixed vegetables. One box was two meals for me. I also got the pan-friend dumplings (8 per box with dipping sauce) which are a perennial pleaser. One time for New Years they even slipped in a complimentary wall calendar! The prices are reasonable and competitive (the food is slightly cheaper but it evens out once you factor in the $1 delivery fee) and there are coupon deals available with purchases of $10, $15, $20, and $25. I wasn't a huge fan of the fried wontons (free with $20 purchase) -- but factoring in everything else, Evergreen is my favorite go-to restaurant for cheap eats.

I haven't tried many Chinese places in west Philly but this place is the best so far. The food tastes good and fresh. The chicken is actually crispy when it's supposed to be crispy. Their homemade ice tea is really good (and huge!). Don't be turned off by the store front appearance. The place looks clean and the food is good and cheap -- cheaper and better tasting than other west Philly places I've tried.
(4)Yelper H.
This restaurant should be on everyone's top, best list, but they should watch their flavor consistency and cooking times. I am a long-term customer, and I usually order the Pork Egg Foo Young and the General Tso Chicken. Occasionally, the smallest chunks in General Tso chicken are overcooked. Sometimes, the Egg Foo Young is fried too long. I do like that you can add extra meat, in $1 or $2 amount, to your entree. This restaurant seems to be a very busy takeout operation, and West Philly is fortunate to have this restaurant in an area that severely lacks good takeout, no matter the type of desired food.
(4)Alex F.
so for the most part, I dont really see that much difference in chinese take out places (unless they are super high end or super grimy). Evergreen is very good though. They are far less greasy than most and cook meats and fish well and not overcooked. also the veggies are still crunchy and alive when you eat them and not completly soaked in sauce. good Stuff.
