Review: This place receives great reviews, so we stopped off on a road trip from CA to MN. It was at once the worst vegan meal I've ever had (been vegan for 11 years) and the worst Chinese food I've ever had. There were inordinate amounts of sugar in everything. The hot and sour soup was neither spicy nor sour; instead, it was a thick sweet syrup with bamboo shoots in it. We had the pepper steak and a tofu dish, and only the tofu was palatable. The pepper steak was again super sweet and not spicy. The tofu was less sweet, but was pretty bland. Maybe sugary Chinese food is a Utah thing or maybe it was a really off day at Evergreen, but I will never eat here again. There appear to be a range of veggie options in Salt Lake City, and I wouldn't want to risk this experience again.
By the way, I think it is strange that users cannot rank vegetarian restaurants lower than two cows. There are some bad vegetarian restaurants out there, and others need to know. Just because we're vegan or vegetarian doesn't mean that we don't have taste buds and don't deserve a decent meal.
Pros: Seems well liked * *
Cons: Sugary * Bland * No spice |

Review: closed on sundays. eat in or take out. accepts credit cards. friendly staff. nice atmosphere.
i have probably eaten more than half the menu at this place. my favorites are the number 7 curry with soy (they also have it with mushroom stems instead of soy) and the number 4 chicken nuggets. i highly recommend eating here.
Pros: vegan * variety * friendly
Cons: * * |

Review: I was very excited to try the food at Evergreen, after I'd heard great reviews from a friend. Needless to say, it definitely wasn't my cup of tea. Unfortunately this review is being written months after the experience, but I will give my thoughts on this regardless. My mother and I ordered two dishes, one seemingly different from the other, according to the descriptions on the menu. The dishes tasted bland and exactly the same, with the exception of one being a bit spicier than the other. I doubt I will go back to try the food again, but if I do, I hope to have a more impressive experience.
Pros: Good Location * *
Cons: Dark Lighting * Bland Food * |
