Evergreen Chinese Buffet

I have been going here for years.
Today my family and I were there and the food was horrible. This establishment is not just for the College student the locals support this business as well. If the quality of food continues to decline they will go out of business.

We have not gone there in a couple of years because of their price increase to about $ 14.00 with no increase in quality of food. We loved it there, start when King buffet closed. Especially for the crab legs but not w the price increase. So we found the New Peking in Streetsboro price 8.95 then increase to 9.45 over a year ago. I hated giving up crab legs but on a social security income we could afford $ 14.00. In Streetsboro on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day they get super huge crab legs in. It was amazing. Evergreen always had a problem with slow traffic food wood sit and dry out also. Bring prices back down you might get more people and serve more food.

They have a decent selection of dishes and the crab legs are a plus but I wish beef and broccoli was available on the buffet. It’s best to go on a Friday or Saturday evening because they are busier so the dishes are fresher. The dessert options could be better but the ice cream has improved recently. I think it was ice milk before.

The food is ok! I’ve been going here for along time and it just seems like it’s getting worse and worse every time! Now my main concern is the bathrooms the bathrooms are so unsanitary!!! There is writing and the toilets are really gross the sinks also are absolutely vile!!! I mean come on pick it up!

The food here is horrible. I got two plates of food, the first I just picked around on and the second one I got so that I could give the food another chance. I would’ve gone for a third but I already wanted to throw up thinking about the first two. Our server looked absolutely miserable, he brought us out drinks then kind of just stared at us awkwardly throughout the rest of our meals. Honestly the food doesn’t even looked appetizing, and has awkward weird labels on them like «crispy sweet chicken» and «cheese balls». I know it’s harsh to judge buffets for food quality, and the price was right (especially for a college town buffet), so I’ll leave two stars instead of the one star I’m inclined to leave.

Pretty chill time food wasn’t the best

Best Chinese in the area! All the chicken and sauces were great. Server was friendly. Buffet seemed very clean and frequently refilled.

Probably the worst Chinese buffet in the area. The food has been sitting forever, there was very little food available. Not worth the time or money. GROSS.

Classic Chinese buffet. This is a cheap way to enjoy some crab legs!

Went here on Father’s Day my husband loves General Tso Chicken. It was nice, clean food was decent. Best part is they don’t charge extra for the crab legs.

3.5
Most buffets are not very good in my opinion but I almost gave this one 4 stars bc I was kind of impressed. I have had my share of Chinese food and this really was pretty good. They have a great selection, change out the food quickly, and everything does seem fresh. Now, I wouldn’t go to the salad bar here looking for fresh lettuce, but sticking to the Chinese part, there are a couple highlights that I found to be just delicious. The crab Rangoon. Ok these were fantastic. I had more instead of having dessert bc I liked them so much. Also, any of the chicken dishes were good along with the green beans, my husband even tried the chicken wings and they were cooked well and nice and crispy! The Chinese donuts and a nice cream machine rounds this out to a really great meal.
I hate to do but on the down side, the white rice and the fried rice wasn’t very good. Kinda hard like it was sitting so a long time and as a Chinese place, you gotta do something about that. Also, the sweet and sour wasn’t fantastic. That’s not my favorite dish anyways but even my husband who really likes sweet and sour chicken wasn’t impressed. Also, like I said earlier, I wouldn’t come here for a salad.
Sometimes you just need a lot of Chinese food… well I do anyways and this is a solid place to go. I will be back dominating at the buffet

Standard Chinese buffet. What’s on there ranges from decent to pretty good. Very limited rotation on the items, so if you liked something that was on the buffet today, there is an excellent chance it will be there the next time! I keep hoping that they’ll do away with the always pristine, never touched salad bar and replace it with another set of options.

I think the owners of all the Chinese buffets in northeast Ohio got together in 2013 and decided «let’s all be mediocre, that way we’ll get equal business».
Fun Buffet in Streetsboro went downhill fast. Mandarin Seafood Buffet in Twinsburg was marginal at best before the remodel and I haven’t returned to try it. The Royal Buffet near Chapel Hill is hit or miss. The Pacific Buffet in Macedonia is awful. Most recently, the Evergreen Buffet has begun its decline.
Back in the day, Evergreen was good almost every time. The service was usually attentive, and the food was usually good and at the correct temperature. The last couple times I’ve visited, including today on New Year’s Day, it’s just been average to below average. Nothing was particularly bad today, just so-​so food that wasn’t up to temperature. The young man who is usually at the register is never rude, he just is very curt and unfriendly. He never asks if your meal was good. Today’s waiter was also unfriendly and never asked if the food was good.

Foods are not fresh, the service is also… Especially the old waiter, very rude, upset me

Inasmuch as we are cursed to never find a Thai restaurant open when we stop to dine, we went two doors west and ate at Evergreen.
It was a weekday 1:30 PM or so for reference. Most of the items were reasonably hot and reasonably good. Most notable exceptions were as follows: the pork dumplings varied from the norm, which is steamed then pan seared on one side, these were fried and pure leather on the exterior. with a reasonably good interior if one could access same. Most of the battered/​fried chicken based dishes were roughly equal parts dough and meat. The «gravy» for the egg foo yung was something other than gravy, more broth than anything. Some of the items had not been refreshed as recently as would have been ideal. Service was somewhat indifferent and just adequate. Nothing here a heaping tablespoon of chili oil didn’t put out of one’smind.

I ordered the extra spicy schezuan tofu but was given a mild Hunan tofu. I politely told the waiter (grumpy guy named Mike) that I was given the wrong order. He went and got the manager — a 30 something burly Chinese guy with a Brooklyn accent. The manager yelled at me in front of my company and said I was wrong. He ATE OFF MY PLATE and said it was schezuan tofu. Then he took it into the back and returned with «new» food. Aka a cup of chilie paste in it. He threw it down and stood over me and said «I’m going to watch you eat this.» Next day I had food poisoning. Seriously people, this kind of crap is not worth it. Go somewhere else!

This is probably the worst chinese food I have ever had. I went once in the middle of the week for dinner and was completely disappointed. There are very few options to choose from for a buffet and all of the items I tried were not good… The rice tasted burnt, the chicken was slimey, and the eggroll was very oily. Yuk yuk!
I did give them one more chance, thinking that the quality might be better for a dinner on a weekend. Nope!
There are some much better chinese buffets in the area. I would not waste my time with Evergreen.

Evergreen is my favorite Chinese food restaurant in this and surrounding areas. I’ve been going with my family for years. The buffet area is not as large as some of the others, but the food quality is superior in my opinion. Crab legs are included and they don’t pull any of that «crab legs cost extra» bull crap I’m starting to see at other Chinese buffets. Try the broccoli chicken and if you love hot and spicy try the volcanic three. It always makes my eyes water but it’s so good!
And I recently started getting take out there! You can get a combo for around $ 6.50!

Friendly staff and usually good service behind food that is typical of Asian strip mall buffets. Usually the food is of good quality, and more traditional than adventuresome in the available selections, which I suspect is what clientele here want, as the place does a good business. However, beware the oil: everything fried tends to be swimming in it, as the food does not seem to be well-​drained after frying, and is sometimes literally floating in oil in serving bins (every time more food is added, the oil accumulates…). The furnishings are attractive and the recently remodeled layout eases traffic flow. Overall a good place for a quick Asian bite or lunchtime pig-​out.

Really rude guy at the front. Almost left due to his lack of customer service and negative attitude. Table waiter was friendly. Pretty good buffet for the price.
