Had an office luncheon and EVERYTHING we ordered was delicious. (Scallion pancakes, pork dumplings, Chicken and Broccoli, Orange Flavored Beef, Eggplant in Garlic Sauce, Pepper Steak, Prawns Sautéed in Chili Sauce and Chicken Lo Mein) My co-workers made a comment about so much food but there were no leftovers. New Favorite Chinese Restaurant in Midtown.

Food is mediocre at best. I would not have ordered from this place again but my coworker wanted to try the preserved pork and cabbage noodle soup I had yesterday. I ordered from seamless and was given a confirmation time of 10-15 minutes. I got there 15mins from my confirmation email. I checked on the order 3 times during the extra 25mins I had to wait. The cashier tells me that the confirmation was for 20-30 mins even though i should her my confirmation email that clearly says 10-15. She shrugs and says she doesn't know why. I kept wondering if they wrongly gave my food to someone else. Finally I get my food and have the cashier tell me that I should really call; they give priority to customers that call. If seamless web is really at the bottom of your priority list, then maybe this restaurant shouldn't really be here!

I enjoy the beef skewers from this restaurant, and they can be hard to find and tough to match when you find a place you like. Definitely will order from here more in the future.

Solid Midtown Chinese spot. Lunch special is affordable and filling. I like the Beef with Broccoli, Shanghai Fried Rice, or Lo Mein especially.

Pretty average chinese food. The dishes are really basic, not much more than a meat and maybe one or two vegetables. They taste pretty okay though. Not overly spicy or particularly flavorful. The fried rice is pretty much the same way. Not unexpected in any way, but more or less basic, run-of-the-mill fried rice. This restaurant will definitely satisfy a craving for chinese food, but nothing extraordinary should be expected from it.

Fantastic Food, all dishes were excellent and top quality. This has just become my new favorite Chinese restaurant in NYC!

Never ordering from here again because: 1) They got my order wrong and didn't include a lychee dessert that I had ordered. 2) They didn't read the "special instructions" I had written. 3) The part of the order they got right, seafood noodle soup, had a tiny serving of seafood at the top and was mostly noodles. Noodle soups I've ordered from other Chinese restaurants didn't have nearly as high of a "noodle-to-other stuff" ratio. On the plus side, delivery was relatively fast.

They don't offer brown rice and did not call to let me know when I requested it with my order. My bad for assuming that all chinese restaurants offer brown rice. Their bad for not letting me know my special request could not be fulfilled and then being rude on the phone when I called up to ask.

i think my one star designation pretty much sums up my delivery experience. if you insist. the food was drenched with oil, the restaurant over seasoned everything and the rice wasn't even cooked properly. who screws up rice? perhaps the person cooking my chinese food wasn't chinese to begin with. just saying....

Pork buns were OK but probably wouldn't order again. Also ordered the Shanghai fried rice and pan fried noodles, both of which were excellent. One of the best Chinese food places we've found in the area so far.

Long time customer of Evergreen. Have never ordered anything that didn't taste fantastic. Excellent packaging to keep hot foods piping hot. The delivery time is a bit long but worth the wait.

Lets go ahead and give 3 stars to this place. The chicken and cashews were yum yum good. The chicken and broccoli was also above average HOWEVER the meat in the won ton soup left something to be desired. The shrimp dumplings were average to below average. Would not order them again. The chicken wings were about as good as you could expect from a chinese restaurant so no complaints there. Not great, not horrible. DO NOT GET THE LEMON CHICKEN< YUCK

Absolutely horrible. Obviously don't understand that there are hundreds of Chinese restaurants in Midtown to choose from. I ordered the diet dish with jumbo shrimp, $5 extra and got FOUR TINY shrimp and about a cup of vegetables. I called to complain and the woman was extremely rude. I won't be ordering again and will warn co-workers not to either
