Best Chinese Upper East
Fresh ingredients,The best eggrolls, great menu, nice atmosphere are just a few of the reasons to dine here. Yes, it is a little more expensive then some of the other chinese restaurants in the area,but it is well worth it for the quality of the food. If you are looking to order in, the food comes in 10 minutes. I am always amazed that they can cook it that fast. Also, the people who work in the front are the nicest people of any restaurant in the area. I assume they own the place. They treat you so nice weather you are ordering one dish to go or are eating in. I can't wait to go with a big group so i could sample more of the food and also can't wait to check out the dim sum brunch.

I'm too lazy to go to Chinatown
I am convinced that no one has ever actually dined in a Chinese restaurant. My reasoning is based on the fact that Chinese food is usually just what a group orders when they can't agree on anything else: Moo Shoo something, dumplings, fried rice, egg/spring/vegetable rolls and a dish that is obscenely soaked in sugar and sesame seeds. In other words, rather than please one group, just sate everyone with fried, unidentifiable food(?). Evergreen is the perfect rebuttal to my argument. The food is of good quality. The selection goes beyond pork/beef/shrimp fried whatever. While pricing might be a little higher than normal, let's face it - you live on the UES; nothing here is "normal." Order from Evergreen and enjoy. You won't drop on your knees and praise them... but you won't have to entertain the notion of venturing into another neighborhood (lord forbid!) for food, either. Plainly and simply, good Chinese food.

Best pork buns
This place has the best pork buns and egg rolls anywhere. They are pricey for the size of the portions, but the food is delicious. I highly recommend it.

Awesome delivery
Very fast, and comes hot, phone service is very friendly, knowledgeable, and quick without being rushed like some spots. The food: always great. I swear, everytime we order it is fast fresh and tasty, I'm willing to try different stuff here because it is always so good...Highly recommended

Fabulous Dim Sum
Everything is tasty and fresh! The Dim Sum really tickles the taste buds. And delivery is fast. I miss the previous owner, Henry, but the restaurant continues to flourish in his absence. The wine list, while not nearly as extensive as it had been when Henry was there, still offers some very good selections.

Food ok at best
Wouldn't go back. Very expensive for such mediocre food. Wasn't served hot (temperature wise). Had the Country Style Beancurd and the Chicken w/ Black Bean Sauce. Rice was poor - dry and cold.

Delicious, first-rate dim sum, lunch/dinner
Love this place! Better than any place in Chinatown for dim sum, lunch, dinner..... Lunch deal is great, and they accomodate specific dietary requests....
