I have contemplated trying this restaurant many times but didn't because of their reviews. Well I have missed out and maybe you have too. Well ordered the steamed dumplings which were good but a tad overcooked, but the "sauce" made up for it. And we tried the Hunan Chicken and Singapore Rice Noodles which were both delicious! The spice level was good and we ate every last bite. The Hunan Chicken could have had a little more sauce with it, but that could vary by serving. We will go back again! read more

I ordered through doordash and 3rd time in a row they did not provide the sweet and sour sauce for SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN. I understand human error. I do not recommend this restaurant, they offered a $1.21 refund. I just want what I ordered. Customer service is not up to standard. read more

Everything is severely underseasoned. I ordered Mongolian beef, crispy beef, egg rolls, and steamed dumplings. The dumplings where dried out and stuck together with really thin noodles on the outside. The sauce they gave with them added almost no flavor. The crispy beef was by no means crispy had almost no flavor and came with a sauce that was just sweet. The Mongolian beef was mostly onions like no beef. Do not order from here their food is honestly like not that good. Not horrible but just so disappointing. read more

I used to live in Inwood and one of our favorite place was Evergreens. In our opinion they care the best Chinese restaurant we have ever been to. I don't understand the negative reviews, we ate there at least once a week for 4 years and the food and services perfectly every time. I recently made a trip back from Atlanta with a friend of mine and while there I took her to Evergreens and she loved it as much as we did!!! Fast service and as always the food was delicious. So I highly recommend this place. read more

Food was awful was actually inedible chicken and the lo mein was very greasy. Only edible thing was the Crab Rangoon. I've given them multiple chances has disappointed every time. read more

been getting food from here for years and always had a great experience. my mom found a piece of steel wool in her food. she saw it before she ate it but who knows if it was in anything else. read more

terrible service. my mom called to ask if they delivered and the person who picked up the phone was extremely rude and hung up on my mom after saying "no we don't" didn't even get the chance to tell her we would come pick it up. don't go here. the people working are shitty and rude read more

Evergreen Restaurant - worst place - Chinese Near Me - Inwood, West Virginia

Good food overall, however the service is awful. I ordered my food 15 minutes before arriving. Upon arriving the woman up front said it would be another 5 minutes, and she proceeds to start placing bags on the counter. She never says anything more to me, and then 20 minutes later a huge rush of people come in waiting as well. After those people all check in with her, she asks what my order is and she hands me a bag that's been on the counter for those 20 minutes. read more

Much better! We ordered and picked up tonight... Much better and reminded me of how it was 4 years ago. Fresh, hot and very flavorful. Keep it up... I'll be updating regularly! Welcome back! read more

I ordered through Doordash, I figured I would give them a try. The delivery was fast. Faster then normal. I literally got my food in 10 minutes after ordering. I figured that's cool since we live literally around the block. Well, I ordered General Tso chicken, Orange Chicken, steamed rice, fried rice, sushi crab roll, Pork Lo-Mein, Crab Ragoons, egg rolls and egg drop soup. The chicken was raw and made me sick. The steamed rice was smelly, and tasted unsanitary like someone was scratching their rear and handling the rice. The Egg Drop soup was unsanitary, and tasted like urine. The crab ragoon sauce tasted like someone had dropped make-up in it. I had such a bad experience, I decided to throw everything away and I was literally afraid to try the pork lo-mein, and fried rice. However, the sushi crab roll was really good and is the only reason I am giving Evergreen 2 stars. I would highly recommend their sushi rolls, for the low price you pay I would go back for those. Also, the crab ragoons are good too, just not the red sauce. read more

Avoid Evergreen at all costs! If I could give this place zero stars I would. The food packaging needs to change. I don't know what happened to this place, but y'all need to get your shit together. Styrofoam melts when you put hot food in it and that's what we got a bunch of melted styrofoam with our food. What a waste of $40. Y'all either need to fix it or get out of the food business. Nobody wants toxic contaminated food. read more

If I could give it no stars I would. I've been coming here for years. They live in my neighborhood. I've spent and untold amount of money here in the last 15 years. And I ask for brown sauce and the owner flat out says no. Really? Like it would cost them anything. No with no explanation. Ridiculous. Not even an option to pay for it. Thanks a lot evergreen. I won't keep me from coming back but I know who I'm dealing with now. Tip? Umm no thanks. Not from me anymore. read more

Oh my god what happened to this place. When I lived here before it wasn't bad but man it's terrible now!! I SPECIFICALLY asked for my food in a red and white oyster pale (the kind of take out box that Chinese is supposed to come in) and with chopsticks. I received food in styrofoam boxes which the food melted through...and no chop sticks. The portions are petite for the price, the delivery is pretty slow and the food itself isn't even good....what a massive waste of money. We ended up throwing basically all the food away. read more

Evergreen Restaurant - Toxic... - Chinese Near Me - Inwood, West Virginia

I'm so aggravated like usual. So gross.. I'm ordering a pizza... this is complete mush and NOT crispy steak. $14 btw. Strong freezer taste too I don't understand it. Nasty. I wasn't a fan last time and now I'm pissed off. Not even a fortune cookie! This place is not ok lol read more

This is a small place with about four tables and is mostly carryout: clue, lunch is presented in foam carry out boxes (see pictures). 4* for overall quality and value. Lunch specials are $4.95 (all) which include choice of entree, steamed or fried rice, and egg roll, spring roll, or crab rangoon (2 large pieces). On the luncheon menu (11 AM to 3 PM), there are about 30 choices, but make that ~50 because for Hunan--for example-- it's listed as Hunan beef/chicken/shrimp. Same for Kung Pao, etc. Dinner combination plates are similar at about $6.95-7.50. The dinner menu is typical, but they have scallops ($9.95 several varieties), and a few other items not on the lunch menu, like Mu Shu (meat/shrimp). They also have a dozen "Chef's Specialties." I had the Hunan Shrimp. I was pleased, as there were about 10 shrimp in the lunch portion, when usually you see about 5-6. Same for my wife's shrimp and lobster sauce. My dish had nicely sauteed crunchy fresh veggies. The Hunan "spice" was nicely peppered, but not overpowering to cause me reflux. I had the fried rice, wife had the steamed rice. Egg Roll was average, Crab Rangoon was excellent. The dining area is small, but decent enough--we ate in. The luncheon menu is the cheapest around and with the choices available, you do much better than fast food. read more

DO NOT pay with a credit card. My elderly parents ordered from them on the 29th. Food for two people take out. They charged my parents $117 to there credit card. Over double the actual amount and refuse to refund them. read more

Really slow, didn't start my order until i got there. I know it had been in for 15 minutes before hand. Then they told me it would be ready soon, well it wasn't read more

Some of the food is okay, like the cheese wontons and appetizer dumplings. However, everything else seems to miss the mark. The fried rice and the lo mein are so bland. The general tso (or any chicken dish) is sometimes chicken and other times mystery meat. If you order food from here I would only stick to the appetizers. Everything else is questionable. The lady behind the counter acts like she hates her job and they never have orders on time when you go to pick up. read more

All I got was a large hot and sour soup and they screwed that up. It was awful. Literally tasted like nothing and I had to add all my own stuff to it. Plus the service was crap. They are super Covid scared so they practically built a whole wall and because of that you can't hear anything they say and they practically give you dirty looks just for walking in. They suck. And shouldn't be in business. read more

Their food is "OK" but it's not the best honestly the food in the next city over is better. The only reason I go there is because they are in Inwood which is where I live. Their customer service is lacking... I literally went there today and stood there while the employee assisted someone right in front of me and then walked away to take a couple of phone calls and do pretty much busy work while I stood there for about 10 minutes unacknowledged. He then finally acknowledged me...my food had been sitting on the counter the entire time and not only did he not bring it over but again went to do other things and then someone else finally brought me my food. Moving forward I'll just make the longer trip to the place in Martinsburg or Winchester where I never feel like I'm unwelcome or inconveniencing the employees... and for a mediocre meal nonetheless! read more

Three times I've tried to eat their food. Twice, My chicken was very undercooked, almost raw, had to toss it in a skillet at home to make it edible. Another time, the food made me sick. read more

It's okay. The food is basically what you would see at any other Chinese restaurant, except their chicken nuggets are from McDonald's and the food is never warm. It's a small place but does have a decent selection. Just wish the food was fresher. The price you pay is on the expensive side compared to the location and experience. To each their own. If I'm craving Chinese, I'll eat here but I could wait and go to a bigger place like Grand Buffet in Winchester or even Dynasty in Martinsburg. read more

I almost skipped this place because of the negative reviews. You people are nuts! They made some of the best Chinese food I've ever had, and I've had a lot of takeout from both small towns and big cities, local and even international. The guy (I assume owner) isn't the friendliest but I wasn't looking for a social encounter. His kung po was fantastic. The fried rice was fantastic. Portions were generous. I'll be a regular from now on. read more

Restaurant is dirty, food takes 15 minutes longer than quoted, area where you have to wait is freezing cold, and no one working is wearing a mask in a pandemic. Saw a gentleman cough and yawn over someone's food with no mask. read more

I'm not a complainer, I'm slow to anger, but a situation with a takeout order from Evergreen that I was party to just last night makes me want to speak out because I'm disturbed and perturbed by how Evergreen dealt with an incorrect takeout order. I was given the wrong takeout order last night after work. No sweat these things happen. I realized the mistake once I looked in the bag, about 10 minutes after I got home from work/picking the order up. Should I have looked to see if I got the right order? Yeah, probably, but we've all had days we're just barely slogging through and just want to go home and veg out. I notice they've called my phone, I call them back...and they ask me to bring back the incorrect order. Let me repeat that in a new paragraph to let it sink in: I was asked to bring back the food that they incorrectly gave me. And not just that, when I arrived, it was swiftly placed back on the "ready to go orders" counter space like nothing had happened. (And outside of the fact that that's kind of sort of a health code concern, there's also the fact that I was offered no discount of any kind for having to use my gas and time to drive back so they could correct their mistake...but I suppose that pales in comparison, yeah?) So, take this as a word of warning, and I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't personally dealt with the situation, but I won't be eating at Evergreen ever again and I made sure to let my workplace (which isn't too far down the road from the place) know about this concern, too. read more

It seems something critical has changed. It must have been the cook because the food tastes different. The good quality and taste has gone down at this location. read more

I ordered take out this evening for myself and my husband and we were both severely disappointed in our food choices. I had the Kung Pao chicken and my husband had the Seafood Delight. The seafood delight was terrible and my husband (who eats MRE's voluntarily) had to throw it out. It wasn't so much seafood as it was fake, gelatinous, smelly seafood substitute in a snot like sauce mixed with vegetables. It smelled horrible. My Kung pao was edible at least, but it was lacking in chicken and most of it was every day household vegetables- carrots, celery and green pepper. We tried the egg rolls and they just tasted like cabbage and were terribly soggy. We were astounded that even the fortune cookies were stale. We won't be returning to this restaurant and the next time we want Chinese, I will be making it myself and sparing the extra expense for a less superior food. read more

This is the kind of place that stays in business only because of lack of alternatives. If a proper Chinese/Thai restaurant opened in Inwood, this place would vanish overnight. The fried rice is greasy and saturated in oil, the General Tso's are swimming in a corn syrup sauce with over-breaded and soggy chicken chunks. The only things not offensive to eat are the Wonton soup and Egg Drop soup. Do yourself a solid and check out China Kitchen of Shepherdstown, Finn Thai of Martinsburg, or my favorite Chopstick Cafe of Winchester. read more

After not having Evergreen's food for probably 6-7 years, I decided to give them a try today for lunch. I was pleasantly surprised! All the recent reviews say it's gone downhill, but my lunch was as good as I remember it being. I ordered the Sesame Chicken lunch special with fried rice and an extra side of white rice. It was fresh and yummy, no complaints from me. The portion was a little smaller than I remember, but being lunch it really didn't bother me and I wasn't able to finish it all anyway. I'll definitely consider ordering from them again soon. read more

Regardless of the negative reviews of this place, the food is always hot, fresh and flavorful. I have been a customer of Evergreen since my move to Inwood from Baltimore in 2010 ( live within walking distance) . Quality has been consistent in all those years. Anyone having an issue with the communication barrier get over yourself, they have the same issue with you. Evergreen compares in quality, if not better to some of the better Asian carry outs in the Baltimore / Anne Arundel county spots. read more

Order DoorDash through them. I was given the wrong order and couldn't get a hold of the door dasher so called them. The first woman kept telling me to come there and pick up my order. No matter how many times I explain the situation. That's all she kept saying very rudely.. she then put another gentleman on the phone that seem to understand me until I told him that I received the wrong order. He then proceeded to tell me that I needed to come pick up my order and started speaking in his Chinese, and telling me he couldnt understand me. DoorDash was nice enough to REORDER my food and just as suspected instead of making fresh food for the new order they were getting paid for, Evergreen sent out the same order that was supposed to be delivered to me almost an hour earlier.!! It was cold, and tasted like it's not out forever. Very disappointed. I understand it was DoorDash is error, but for a restaurant to give you food that's been sitting that long is despicable.. read more

Was good when it first opened but the last time 2 years ago the food was awful. I'll give them 2 stars because they were good for awhile.

Ate there tonight it was good however was very upset with the amount of chicken I got. I ordered chicken and vegetables but it was mostly vegetables. read more

Ordered Family Style Tofu. The tofu was 'off' as the British say. Sour. So no thumbs up here unfortunately. Place is convenient, but to knowingly serve tofu past it's prime...smh read more

It's a typical strip mall Chinese resturant. Same bland greasy offerings you can get at all of them.

My favorite Chinese restaurant in the Inwood area. Conveniently located off of Middleway pike. The food was always good and the service was always nice and prompt. I especially like their triple delight and general tso's chicken. read more

Moved to the area last year and tried other chinese restraunts in the area and none even come close to the quality and freshness that you get here.. This is our family's new go to! Highly recommended! read more

Used to order from Evergreen a couple times a month. But haven't been back in quite a while. Last time we were there I ordered a vegetable diner combo with extra corn. My daughter loves "Chinese corn" so I thought be ordering extra corn I'd get extra corn...nope! Only got about 6 to 8 baby ears and rest was filled with broccoli and carrots. My wife ordered the pepper steak combo which was cold and the beef was red in the middle. We enjoy our steaks medium rare but not our Chinese food. It made me a little concerned about my Kung Pow Chicken, but it was OK. We now order takeout from Jin Zhou in Winchester, VA. read more

Horrible food!!! The last time I went there I ordered a Egg Drop soup and it tasted like some kind of chemical. The time before that I ordered chicken wings and every other piece smelled and tasted very old. I have never had such inconsistent chineese food ever!!! This place needs to be seriously shut down before someone gets very sick. read more

I stopped by this restaurant with my friend during a visit to inwood because he had strongly suggested this place. To my astonishment, the food was better than I had expected. The shrimp in my shrimp lo mein was deveined and tasted better than everywhere else that I had tried in the past. Definitely will be back for more the next time I am in the inwood area. read more
