Salt & pepper squid
Gene W.

4.5 stars for effort...........Sadly only 3.5 stars for execution........so 4 stars. Eugene has plenty of Szechuan Chinese restaurants which are very good, but authentic Cantonese style Chinese food is harder to find. Spring House attempts to make dishes that you'd find in metro areas that have chinatowns. We had 4 standard Cantonese dishes (beef chow fun, Singapore curry rice noodles, stewed beef noodle soup, & salt & pepper squid) so we could judge how "authentic" they could cook. While the components were there, besides the squid which was scrumptious, something was slightly amiss for the other dishes. The chow fun lacked the "faw hay", the Singapore noodle was too salty, and the noodles in the beef stew (good & tender) wasn't "right." It's a counter serve type place where you get your own water, utensils, etc. And the prices were fair as was the quantity of food. The staff were friendly & helpful, though don't expect a "fine dining" experience. For Eugene, this might be as close as you can get to authentic Chinatown style cooking so it's worth a try and maybe you might like it.

Update: Alright it's a 5/5. We ordered more Cantonese dishes and explored a bit more, and everything has been delicious. The service is so nice, and always helpful. Thinking of the beef and egg dish makes me drool. Pork belly is always a staple. Fried rice - incredible.

We were stoked to try this Cantonese restaurant in the U of O area. Maybe it's legit, but everything was way too salty. The beef brisket noodle soup was definitely not correct. The flavor of the meat was off and it wasn't tender. The noodle texture was not bouncy. The service was awesome, though. The guy who took my order was super friendly. I think I will need to keep looking for a good Cantonese place around here.

Lunch - Pork fried rice with baked eggs.  Delightful!

Right at the Campus of U of O! I've been mourning the loss of Spring Garden restaurant on Main at Pioneer Parkway in Springfield since the doors were closed. I wore sack cloth and ashes. I sat on the floor and wept bitter tears. Silly me, they moved to Spring HOUSE! Found this out and had to go. Parking is somewhat limited in the area, but you can buy time on the street in the convenient boxes that suck money from your credit/debit card. An hour cost me $2.00! (It's over $20.00 an hour in San Francisco, so who's complaining?) They have a great menu, and I will be returning to sample more as I can. THIS is a great place for a person dining alone. You get a very reasonable plate of very good food for a very reasonable price. I chose Creamy egg and Pork baked rice. Stupendous! Delicious! Great taste, texture and quantity. The ambience is, in a word, missing. There are a ton of pictures of the dishes on the walls. You get to serve yourself for flatware and/or chopsticks, ice water and napkins. Now go find a table and sit down. Mom and Pop who run the place speak good English, and are great hosts. The lunch menu is well done, with lots of options. I look forward to eating my way through it in the next half decade.

Steamed Chicken

Steamed Chicken is a must try! It's really really delicious and good! You can never have such a smooth and soft and unforgettable chicken taste if you don't try this!

Inside. They take a long time to bus tables, so almost all of the tables had dirty plates/cups.

If you want good Chinese food, nice atmosphere, and good service... Look elsewhere. 1) This place is SUPER confusing to find if you use gps. It's on the street, but parking isn't ideal. Either you have to park on the very busy street OR park around the block behind the restaurant in a VERY sketchy parking lot. (Like, have pepper spray on hand.) 2)The service isn't great. I walked in, wasn't acknowledged or greeted at all. As a side note: There were several employees at various tables, eating. 3) It's a "seat yourself" kind of place, but I had difficulty even finding a table that was clean! It's not a big place, and there aren't very many tables, but almost all of them had dirty plates/cups on them. Apparently they take a longggg time to get around to bussing tables! (And most of the remaining few had employees sitting at them eating). It was NOT busy when I arrived. 3) The menu is okay. Not a lot of description as to what ingredients are in the dishes, but the pictures above the counter are somewhat helpful. Warning: The "number" items on the laminated menu don't exactly match up with the "number" items listed above the counter! 4)Food is meh. The fried rice was pretty dry and hard. Noodles were greasy. BBQ duck flavor was ok, but lots of bones, not much meat. Pork is nothing but fat; inedible. If you are a stereotypical college student that will eat anything- Feel free to give this place a try. If you have standards at all- Look elsewhere. 5)Restaurant cleanliness is questionable. Besides all of the un-bussed tables, the general cleanliness of the interior could use some work. Especially when you look in the kitchen and towards the back of the restaurant at all; Very cluttered and messy. Just doesn't look clean. 6)Prices are okay, not expensive. But for the cruddy atmosphere, service, and food... Not worth the money. Overall, this restaurant is not worth going to.

See all

Davis NW - Gumbo and salad (the salad came out full leaf and was beautiful before she cut it up!)

The service is hands down the best I've experienced in Oregon -- attentive, kind, and genuinely caring. I'd give top ratings for the food, atmosphere, and overall service without hesitation. The fish and chips are the best I've had in Oregon, perfectly cooked, crispy, and packed with flavor. They truly don't miss when it comes to seasoning. And that special sauce? I loved it so much I started calling it the "Bayou Sauce" because it tastes like it came straight out of New Orleans! It's that good. I'm very picky about smoked meat, but theirs completely won me over. My brother even brought some home for me to try, and it was incredible tender, flavorful, and smoked to perfection. This place in Eugene, has such a strong sense of community. I've never walked into a restaurant and genuinely felt so much love and positive energy. The food was beyond incredible my mom described it as "fire," and she wasn't wrong! The desserts are amazing. You can truly taste how fresh and homemade everything is. I'm also a huge hot wings fan, and their wings are some of my favorites. And don't skip the fresh lemonade -- we had blueberry lemonade, and it was absolutely refreshing and delicious. The gumbo was very tasty. I loved the fresh ingredients used. The flavors were definitely there. Overall, I'm beyond impressed and can't wait to come back. This spot is a true gem!

Food is bangin! Dude the bbq here is so incredibly good! Honestly feels like you're at a Cook out…read morein the back yard and taste like it too! Ribs were insane, fall off the bone. Potato Salad was perfect homemade potato salad with onions, garlic and mustard base the way it's supposed to be! Mac and cheese smoked... yeah smoked Mac and Cheese! Homemade Banana pudding to go didn't even make it home. The best part though, the customer service. Owned by the nicest hardworking family. Chatted with both the husband and wife tonight. Such good people and amazing service! The really aim to make your meal the best it can along with your experience, you won't be disappointed! Can't wait to go back! Get you sommmeee!

Real great bbq, expensive of course but what bbq place isn't. Great atmosphere, country music…read morebummmmmmpin. Would recommend the chicken and pork & beans over anything else but everything was superb! Kids meal is also a crazy deal, def check that out.

I ordered delivery from Bill & Tim's tonight and was incredibly disappointed. One major issue was…read morethat only half of my order arrived. One bag had my name on it, the other had someone else's name on it. This could have been the fault of the driver or the restaurant, both should have been more vigilant. I ordered a 2-meat plate for myself with mac and cheese and onion rings as the side. My partner got the BBQ chicken sandwich with truffle fries and two pieces of Texas toast. Only my food arrived, split across two bags (one of which didn't even have my name on it). My partner's food was completely missing and in its place were sweet potato fries. He had to order something else and wait for it to come. The sweet potato fries were cold and mushy and didn't have much flavor. My plate was packed in the bag vertically so that all of the grease was leaking out into the bag while it was en route. This meant that the entire container, inside and out, was absolutely covered in grease. I could not touch any part of my meal without getting covered in a thick layer of grease. You might think with all that mess that there wouldn't be any grease left for the food, but you'd be wrong! All of my food was very greasy. The mac and cheese was cold and congealed, like it had been sitting all day. The chicken was alright, but greasy. The brisket was shredded (who shreds brisket????) and VERY greasy. The Texas toast was the greasiest of them all. Every bite I took had a significant amount of grease squishing out into my mouth. It was truly foul. The onion rings were also greasy but that is a bit more forgivable since they are fried. I was really looking forward to a nice BBQ dinner at home after a long, tiring day. Alas, I'm left with a greasy life and a headache. Unless you want health issues from all the grease, skip this place and try a different local BBQ joint.
