Ever Green House

I am not a vegetarian, my husband is. We go to this restaurant often and I love it. The sweet and sour is so delicious. The soy has a great taste and texture. The employees there are so friendly and helpful. It is a great stop for lunch or dinner. Since it is downtown, we go for dinner and then head to the Bayou.

Pros: Service

Cons: Parking

I love this restaurant. If I could afford to eat there everyday, I totally would!! The prices are awesome, and the portions are great! The staff is so friendly I love going there! I eat the #7 (potato lovers curry) as often as I can!!

Pros: great service, awesome food

Cons: not a lot of parking, and closes by 6

...but unfortunately, contrary to the hours posted on the web site, I can't. I went after they were closed--- At 6:00 PM on a weekday.

I absolutely love everything about this delightful restaurant ! The soy Chinese cuisine is scrumptous! I have tried all twenty-something items on the menu. Every dish has unique flavor, I find myself ordering the golden nuggets (they don't tast like cardboard to me), the seaweed roll with black bean sauce, the curry potato soybeans, and the spicy tarot root soybean. I'm their number one fan. Yes, the atmosphere is somewhat dated, but who really cares? I'd rather invest my stomach where friendliness greets not only at the door but to my tastebuds (what truly matters with a restaurant)! Prices are unbelievable; so affordable I dine there at least twice a week! The employees work very hard at pleasing their clients. Less than ten dollars for every healthy meal, who can really complain? What are you waiting for? I hope you will love it just as much as I do !

Pros: Friendly, Extremely Inexpensive, Fabulous Food

Ever Green House is wedged into a lackluster section of Salt Lake's sometimes-unsightly State Street, and it's usually my first choice for a delicious, filling dinner at the end of a taxing day. The staff is small, softspoken, courteous, and has a strong track record of getting orders right (even if it takes a while to prepare the food). Tofu bao makes a great appetizer, and the #7, "curry potato with soybean," is the one dish that will always put me in a good mood no matter what happened at the office. The decor is a bit dated, the water is served in plain paper cups, and the music is a bit cheesy, but the food's so good you won't mind it a bit. If you're a chopstick snob like my sister, ask for them when you order; the default utensil is a stainless-steel fork.

Pros: delicious, usually quiet, relaxing

Fabulous service & terrific food. My favorites are tofu bao & sweet & sour "chicken". I am not fond of the fake ham in the fried rice however-it tastes OK, but it's a textural thing. I just eat around it or give it to my friends who really like it a lot. Very reasonably priced. Atmosphere can be jazzed up a bit, but otherwise great!

Pros: cheap, good food

Cons: , parking hard at times

Though some diners will miss the standards like dim sum and Peking duck, Evergreen House has a wonderful dish for every taste. My faves are the black pepper with soybean, tofu bao, and the hot pot. I do wish they would find some livlier music, though! The stuff they have on loop has quite the sedative effect. Vegans who've maxed out their credit cards at Sage's will salivate at the wonderful prices.

Pros: Vegetarian Chinese!!!, Inexpensive, Friendly Service

Cons: Sleep-inducing Music

I love this restaurant. I don't miss any of my old favorite meat Chinese dishes. The food is great, prices are great, everything is great.

GREAT food and atmosphere. A small but quaint place with THE Best Vegan Food! Even a meat-eater would enjoy this cooking!

Pros: reasonable prices, great service
