This place can better be described as an eatery. Run by a family, the place doesnt provide you with glamorous interiors and all, but when food is all that matters who cares? Mr. Li was very cordial in welcoming us and the foods they served were really good. We tried quite a few dishes - namely stir fried pork, dragon chicken, pork 65, salt and pepper shrimps, prawn chips, cantonese noodles, garlic fish. All were sumptuous, a special mention for the pork 65 though. It stood out.
Located near the chinese kali temple its one of the few eateries left in Tangra locality that gives you the feel that you expect from the China Town. This place hasnt so far given in to the glamour game. Will definitely be back to this place very soon.
A couple of negative reviews bout this place probably suggests that they are probably a bit inconsistent in their services and quality. However, my experience with what the family had to offer was really good.
See you soon Mr. Li..

I suddenly realised that I haven't reviewed this place yet. This restaurant was my first Chinese restaurant visit that too long time back when I was in primary school.
Located in the interiors of Tangra, this is a really small place (I guess that's what may appear to me). We used to come here regularly long ago and were kinda self proclaimed loyalists of this place which later got shifted to Beijing.
The Szechwan Prawn from here was something to bug for. As a child, I used to hog a full plate of it containing ten pieces of it like a beast along with a plate of Rice Noodles.
Don't know how is it doing these days. Haven't been here for a long time. I may not like the food here anymore as my ideas about Chinese food has broadened by eating out at places. But Evergreen will always remain 'evergreen' in my heart when this would come to a Calcutta Chinese experience. Happy Dining! :)
The moment we got in, ambiance was good enough, and we started with a Pork dish which was so good... But moving towards the main course I don't know what went wrong, the food quality started degrading.... Hence the verdict would be that the place is good for starters and not the main course...no way...cheers!!!
Located at Tangra
Well had a quick visit in the place enjoyed some Chinese food and alcohol. The food was OK and the ambiance was not so great though but the waiter and service was fine. Taste was I won't say a perfect but yes 1 time it's fine.

There is a saying - "Keep your circle small and your beer chilled" - just after a horrible 45 minutes in "Shun Li" with hot beer and tasteless chicken with veg, Evergreen was again the suggestion of Subha Thakur and this time it was truly awesome. Just we entered and the chilled tuborg was served; a sip of which actually helps to remove all worries all tension of your office and your personal life. Anyhow being in a hurry to wrap up quickly we ordered for one 1/2 dry chilli chicken. It didn't take much time; no garnishment simple preparation with a shredded green chillis - typical china town touch!! Like the looks, the taste was very nice as well, the chicken was so soft that it gave me a feel of chicken cheese preparation.Few points to be highlighted -
1. Price of food and drinks are very affordable
2. Separate family section
3. No smoking inside
4. Parking at owners risk on the road outside
Bottomline - worth a visit in such a cheap yet nice place with food good in taste and cost less!! 😀😀
The food is simply delicious..The snacks specially.. Try out their chili prawns and if you wish ask them if they have anything good off the menu, you might be surprised.. They have very friendly staff and it is a place for both families and friends..
'Evergreen' is located at South Tangra road at Chinatown,tangra just near from Kim Fa.Today I've visited here with my friends for lunch.When we entered this restaurant,it is totally empty,only one waiter is here.Ambience is old & some chinese photos are hanging on the wall.We have ordered here two plates Chicken Fried Rice,two plates Egg Fried Rice with half plate chilli chicken & half plate schezwan chicken.After 10 minutes the food has come.Fried rice is tasty & very hotty.Schezwan chicken is delicious,chilli chicken is also good.But chilli chicken's pieces are little hard.Food quantity is good.Atlast we have finished with Thums Up.
Most delicious snack for starters-Chilli Prawns... I love it as well as the main dishes. The main dishes are like mixed chow and meifoon and most sizzling food is sizzlers..once u taste the sizzling sizzlers...u would definitely love to have it once again
The Thai soup is????????????
A pork lover's paradise!! very cozy.. family section is on the 1st floor..people fag inside the restaurant...no such issue of going outside..their dry chilly pork is to die for..the only negative point is that the choice of beer is limited..
Nowadays very few Chinese Eating Houses ( Restaurants) in Tangra are serving Pork. Luckily Evergreen is still making some awesome pork items. The other traditional Chinese (India Chinese) non veg items are also good as usual. The food is being prepared by family members. The liquor price is quite cheaper than the other restaurants in Tangra. Pretty homely ambiance, but if you are a person who gives priority to ambiance than food, then please don't go over there.
Friendly place, just like a home.. Liked the starters, Schezwan Chicken, in particular.. Main course was fairly average though.. Precisely speaking, the place is good if you're with your close ones, otherwise it can get somewhat boring...
Its not in very popular part of China Town and its not vwry fancy either. However the food is authentic and its a must try place in Tangra for Pork lovers!!
Quiet place reasonable price good taste not so good ambiance
Very nice place & amazing taste of foods.
Wondeful joint for friends and family dine out
Great Mixed Hakka Noodles
