Got food delivered today for the first time in a couple of years. It was SO GOOD. I ordered lunch special shrimp with lobster sauce that came with pork fried rice and then I chose egg drop soup as my side. Unlike other Chinese food spots they give you the normal full size pint of soup with your lunch! Had to try their Singapore Mei fun (got it spicy and it is just the right amount). Then I also had to get a favorite from there, the chili garlic wontons. I accidentally ordered them as mild instead of spicy but the sauce was still delicious. It was delivered almost an hour ahead of schedule and the driver was so kind and patient with my terribly slow elevator. read more

You know what you want. You want beef lo mein, General Tso's chicken, a large egg drop soup, a quart of shrimp fried rice, and too many egg rolls. And, uh, yeah... that's definitely for three people *cough*. This place has been my fix lately. Price is right, and the quality is there for what it is. Simple. Solid. Four stars for being real in a food landscape that's trying very hard to convince me about a lot of trends and gimmicks. read more

We were craving Chinese food with easy parking, so went to Spring. They do have their COVID system down pat - they use a door pass-through box for both payment and passing the food. We ordered the crab rangoons, orange beef, and sweet & sour chicken. I really wanted the sweet and sour pork, but they ran out of pork. To start - the rangoons, while cheap at 10 for $5 were not the slightest bit crisp. The dough was thick and chewy, so that combined with having to do take out, it wasn't the best. The sauce they come with is very good though. The sweet and sour chicken with fried rice was very greasy - and the pieces of chicken were small within the fried batter. The orange beef was pretty good, but a bit of an odd texture. read more

They got upset that I got a refund on they fly infested food through grubhub because if they didn't have the money they wanted the food back which wasn't going to happen. I was at work in a restricted building and I threw it in the trash because it was inedible. Need you guys to do better. And don't call customers about something that was your fault, thank you! read more

Great crab rangoons I'm literally obsessed. They're reasonable prices for great quantity.

The food is good, but if you have a problem with this restaurant after spending so much money by placing multiple orders over time, they will not honor you as a customer. I had received a call stating there was a $14 discrepancy with my order and I was instructed by a man to cancel the order and reorder everything. Grubhub had already charged me, so you want me to pay more money out of my account for another order while waiting for my money to be refunded over $14? Are they so hard up for money!? Here's where this story gets interesting. This guy started yelling because I asked what was the $14 for? I was actually willing to pay it because I loved the food, so catch where I'm going here. I was willing to pay the extra money for the previous good service received but his evil impatient ass started yelling because I was trying to better understand what the issue was. Because on my end my bank account was charged correctly. His weirdo ass hung up on me! I called back and spoke with a young woman who patiently explained what the issue was, they tried to do an adjustment for someone else's order and I was accidentally charged the additional $14 which I can't see now but I will when the charge finalize. She then put him back on the phone and he hung up again. I have spent so much money on this restaurant, and I do not appreciate being treated this way. I do not recommend this restaurant for the very reason that if there is ever a problem, you are not treated with the respect as a paying customer. Again, I was willing to pay the additional money because I loved the food, but the unnecessary yelling into the phone for no reason and hanging up on me was weird as hell. read more

The food was really good, exactly what you're looking for in a neighborhood food spot! We got our food near close and the portion sizes were beyond generous, and we were not complaining! This will be a go to spot for cravings. I had the shrimp lo mein which was fire along with spring rolls and wonton soup, also all fire. Highly recommend. read more

It's exactly what you want from a neighborhood corner joint. Cheap, fresh & delicious. Big portions too. We need more places like this & less places that want $15 for fried rice. read more

I've only ordered take out/delivery from Spring Chinese Restaurant twice, but from what I can tell it's a pretty solid spot. The first time, I ordered the shrimp fried rice and chicken wings and the Kung Po Triple Crown. The shrimp fried rice and wings were amazing! I legit could not get enough of it even as I was eating it. Even thinking about it now, I just might order it again today. I asked for it to be spicy because I really like spicy food. It wasn't as spicy as I wanted (I have a ridiculous spice tolerance so it was probably okay for most people) so I added some of my own pepper myself. The Kung Po Triple Crown was okay. Also had to make adjustment to it with my pepper and I wish there was a lot more protein in it. I definitely enjoyed the shrimp fried rice more, hence why I stuck to that the second time I ordered from them. The portion sizes are also incredibly generous. With those two meals, I was able to eat lunch and dinner for like 2-3 days. Probably would have lasted even longer if I hadn't overstuffed myself the first day with the shrimp fried rice and wings. For the price and the portion size (and delicious food), I'll definitely be ordering from them again. read more

My Food Seems To Be Delivered On Time & Hot But TOUGH & OVER COOKED!! Annoyed Gonna chill off of Springs for a while. read more

If I can give this place less stars I would. Do not offer delivery from this place as they will charge extra without you knowing, thieves!!!! Terrible food and customer service!!! read more

I've never picked up a beef lo mein pint and had to stop eating because there was too much meat, but that's what really stood out to me about this place! The noodles were good, with onions and veg all fresh and perfect, but also, the beef was perfectly cooked, flavored, and not chewy or stringy as you might find at other places with a cheap beef lo mein. The shrimp egg roll was also super fresh and light, and tasted great with the mustard and du k sauce provided. Will be trying this place again soon! read more

Best American style Chinese food in west Philly, amazing wantons! They always deliver fast

Don't take the 4 stars as an endorsement for quality Chinese food, it's just consistently average, very cheap and the service is good. When my wife and I move, we frequently try to find our go-to comfort Chinese food and this ended up being it. Everything is as advertised and the price can't be beat by other places. We can and do come back when we need our cheap Chinese fix. Our typical order is two combos (one sesame when general tso's) - the chicken was a little crispy, but a little soggy. The rice was normal fried rice. The egg rolls were decent. we also got some crab rangoons that were as expected. This is pretty standard faire, but it does the trick. Again, very inexpensive and the best bang for your buck cheap Chinese in Powelton/U City/West Philly read more

Hands down the best conventional American style Chinese in the city. Prompt delivery, every menu item is delectable and of high quality.

The order was ready fast and the food was great, I got the chicken lo mein combo which came with more than enough food. Their prices are really good too. Its also nice to see that they're still taking social distancing seriously! read more

I read other reviews before ordering and decided to give them a try. I had the absolute WORST shrimp fried rice ever. It had small previously frozen shrimp and dry poorly cooked rice. The egg drop soup had no flavor, no taste. The complimentary chow menu noodles were stale. I eat them, not these. The chicken lo mein was very good. So, I ate off my partners plate. I could possibly order that again, but otherwise, I wouldn't order here again. read more

Had delivery through DoorDash. The entrees were okay, standard Chinese food, nothing bad but nothing super. The egg rolls were a bit on the dry side. We also ordered Crab Rangoon, as this is a favorite for us. The Rangoon was more than a little disappointing. There was very little filling, and rather than the normal thin crispy shell, this was a thick doughy shell that was very off-putting. Perhaps it would have been better as dine-in, but I can't imagine those Rangoon being good in any setting. read more

This is my go-to place for Chinese takeout. I really appreciate their meat-substitute selection and love the mock sesame chicken! We order from here 1-2x per week and have never had any mix ups or delays. I usually get a vegetable soup and either kung pao tofu or szechuan bean curd. My meat eating friends confirm the "normal" menu items are equally good, we love this place. read more

I had a great experience at Spring Chinese Restaurant. Unique place. Pretty much every thing that we purchased was extremely fresh and flavorful. Staff is very courteous and will help you with everything. Spring Chinese Restaurant, so glad they're in town. read more

When I first looked at the place, I was hesitated whether going in or not. The front looks dirty and small. But at the end, I went in and I was a little surprised at the variety of their dishes. I recommend their fried rice, mushrooms with chicken and shrimp with vegetables; I don't recommend egg foo young(too greasy) and dumplings( the meat inside is not good). read more

Been in West Powelton for 5 years, and this is consistently the best Chinese food takeout.

I DON'T CARE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE FORTUNE COOKIES, I LOVE YOU THE MOST. Super cheap, delivery, and I always have equal-sized leftovers for the next day if I just get a pint of soup and the dumplings. If you crave spice, they can give you spicy- we recommend the spicy garlic wontons, extra spicy, for the daring. Imma try your vegetarian real soon, Spring. read more

Typical Chinese fast food. Not too pricey, and the dumplings and stir fry are good. Wonton soup is sometimes ok, sometimes way too salty. They have tables and chairs, but nobody actually uses them except to wait for their take-out. Most of the time I go for delivery, which is good and generally arrives on time. read more

Please do not order from this place. Not only is it a crappy little place on Lancaster ave but in the last few months they do everything they can to make you order more food in order to use your card.. Also they no longer give you menus but when you ask for one they charge you for it. They are totally outta control. read more

Ugh. This is not a place where you can just pick something that sounds good off the menu without knowing exactly what it is. Avoid the Szechuan-style noodles at all costs. But it sounds like it could be good, right? Well apparently it's a terrible lo mein with more onions and cabbage than noodles in a gross goopy brown sauce. There wasn't much noodle going on, let alone anything even remotely Szechuan. I'm by no means a picky eater, and I found them completely inedible. I never ever throw away food, so this must not constitute as food. Even the fries were bad. Who messes up French fries? Spring Chinese Restaurant does. They were hard, dry, and stale tasting. Really? You could buy frozen fries at the grocery store and they'd come out much better than these. At least these were still edible though. The hot and sour soup was decent. Not necessarily good, but passable. The pork fried rice was bland, but also passable. The half a fried chicken was also okay. Delivery took over 20 minutes longer than they said it would, making it a whole hour and twenty minute wait for this miserable meal. They should be ashamed at how bad their food is, even for American takeout Chinese, for which the bar is set pretty low in the first place. I'm giving them two stars only because the food didn't make me horrendously ill (so far), and it would be (mostly) edible in case of a nuclear holocaust. In fact, the good news is that it might even survive a nuclear holocaust. Evergreen, I'll never stray from you again. Hell, this place even makes China Inn look tasty. read more

FYI: They'll throw in a free spring roll if you order more than $15 on grubhub. They also have a $8 delivery minimum. What can I say? I was in the mood for some really jank Chinese food. WHAT I GOT: Chicken fried rice and crab rangoon PROS: Well, I'm gonna be honest and say that the best part about this was the price. Both items added together was only $12ish and that was including tax and tip. The crab rangoon was like $4 for 10 of them and your average sized, typical Chinese takeout container was filled all the way to the top with the fried rice. The taste actually wasn't terrible either. Basically what you would expect from Americanized Chinese food. CONS: You get what you paid for I guess. The skin to the crab rangoons were less than crispy. They were kind of on the flaccid side. Not much filling to them either but it was ok. I'm also kinda scared that the chicken in the fried rice wasn't cooked all the way so I might feel the pain later. read more

They're okay if you're in the mood for some typical Americanized Chinese food. The food is actually pretty good, but expect an attitude if you use their delivery service. They gave me a completely wrong order, and then treated me as if I did something wrong (and never corrected their mistake). They really need someone else to take orders via phone. I either just go pick it up, or order a pizza because the attitudes they give is scary when someone is cooking your food, ya know? read more

Meh. The best way to describe this place. Not amazing, not terrible. Just meh. The food is your typical greasy and cholesterol/heart-attack inducing Chinese food available around the corner of the block. That isn't to say it is bad - it's just the Americanized (and nothing compared to the real stuff) Chinese food. The vegetarian options are plenty, although vegetarians should be wary of anything fried - the fryers are the same whether they are frying chicken, pork, beef, or your vegetables. The upside is that the food is quite cheap, and for a location close to several college campuses, I'm sure they're doing quite well. Just watch your back when you're in the area; streets in the high 30's through low 40's in the Lancaster/Powelton Area can get a bit seedy in the evenings and night. read more

the food here tastes pretty good! I've had the sesame chicken before and that's good. Kinda disappointed with my most recent experience here though because my kung pao chicken literally had 4 bites of chicken in it and the rest was all the veggies. Maybe it was just because I came in on the later end of dinner time? I usually can make a container that size last for 2 full meals but not when there's only 4 tiny pieces of chicken in the entire thing. read more

Decided to try them on Grubhub since we were in the mood for cheap Chinese. Order came on time. While not bad, the food felt overwhelmed by veggies. My fiance's chow mein was literally a mound of onions with bits of shredded pork here and there. When we called back to exchange it, they couldn't find our order and hung up on me when I went to search for the receipt or at least look it up. They questioned me like I was in the wrong,too. At that point we just sucked it up. The rest of the food (rice, egg roll, good but only mild beef in garlic sauce) was fine by Americanized Chinese standards and I could pick out broccoli. We were hungry. They also skimped on sauce and didn't even give fortune cookies. It was only $15 with tip,but, still.. poor customer service. In passing, perhaps. But ,I'll stick to other places for now. read more

Your regular corner Chinese spot. It's my go-to when I have those "after dinner time" Chinese food cravings. Nothing too great also nothing too shabby. Inexpensive. Edible. Convenient. read more

On two different occasions I have ordered from them and have had to wait more than an hour (a hour & a half actually) for delievery. Mind you I live 3 blocks away. When I called to complain.. They gonna tell me that they are very busy. They magically came to deliever in 10 min later. This place has gone down over the last year. read more

Consistency is key whenever I am making dining decisions. If I'm hungry and my recollection is that some times your food is good and sometimes it's not, then you won't become a go to spot for me. This is a go to spot. My favorite dish is vegetable mei fan and it is always delicious. It's definitely a grab and go so you're not coming here for ambiance. But it's cheap and relatively fast (I always call and pick up) and my order is always hot and waiting for me. read more

Mehhh...not horrible...but not good either. We live near here, less than 5 blocks away. But, we rarely go. The food just isn't compelling enough to beckon you to come back. I'd much rather drive the 10 minutes to go to Danny's Wok, or go to Shangri-La. But, I didn't want to pay cash, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on dinner, and I really was too tired to go anywhere else, so Spring is where I went. Don't get your hopes up. They'll never be a place that lives up to your expectations. But, if your lazy, really don't want to put out any effort...this place will give you a modicum of sustenance. read more

Yup. Just ordered from here, hoping that the hot and sour soup lived up to the 5 star review... I got Szechuan Chicken, Boneless Pork BBQ App, and Hot and Sour soup. Sadly it was all disappointing. Typical Americanized Chinese food, overly sauced, not spicy at all, and slightly bland. I was really disappointed by the Hot and Sour soup as it lived up to the other reviewer's comment 'Neither hot or sour'. I"ll probably order from here again as it wasn't TERRIBLE, but it wasn't wonderful either. Maybe I'll ask whomever takes my order for their favorite dish. read more

If you are a college kid you gotta give this place 5 stars. First of all it is really cheap. The food is more than enough for one meal especially if you get the lunch specials or the combination dishes. I usually order pick up on grubhub. By the time i walk there from my dorm (less than 10 min) the food is ready, fresh and hot. It is always up to my satisfaction. Oh also try random stuff, probably wont be disappointed. read more

Not like a 5 star in my opinion, but for a Chinese restaurant in the U City/ West Philly area it's pretty darn good. I can't say the food is over the top as other stores I've had in Philly but it's definitely good. They take credit cards too so that's a plus!! But they do charge tax** read more
