This restaurant is right next to the Clemens Center, so it gets real busy on a show night and is pretty quiet otherwise. The fare is typical American Chinese, but prepared well and the service is fast and courteous. It would not be my top choice for a date, but if you have to eat somewhere, predictable and reliable and not entirely terrible.

Evergreen Chinese Restaurant is not what you would normally identify as a Restaurant. It's VERY SMALL with three or four tables where people normally call and pick up their orders. The food is fairly good but salty tasting. I once picked up shrimp and egg rolls to go and they were put in a paper bag. By the time I got the local park to sit and eat, the bag was soaking wet with grease. The location is close to the Elmira College and you can pull in off the street to park. The help is friendly and the prices are reasonable but their are other Chinese locations I would recommend before this one such as "Happy Family" which is further South on Main Street, just over the main street bridge.

I love this restaurant. I go at least one a month on a Friday for fish fry. Ever time it's great. The portions are big and the price is low. Service is always good and with a smiling face. Would highly recommend

This is mostly a takeout place that also delivers. I have no experience with that end of the business but we were there on a Tuesday evening and the place was doing a very busy takeout/delivery (2 cars) business. They have a very plain dining area in a room adjacent to the service counter. It's clean, out of the way of the counter traffic, and there are four tables that each accommodate four people. There is plenty of parking for pickup or in-house dining guests..They have table service at the tables and it was quick, polite, and efficient. The employees behind the counter are all very nice and they speak perfect English. The owners' young daughter was "helping" to wait on tables (basically following Mom around and carrying things) and she was adorable. The food was great! It came quickly, there was plenty of it and the taste was excellent......easily as good as any other Chinese food in the area.
