Evergreen Restaurant

Taking everything into consideration, our dim sum experience here was good. Leave it to our compatriots from Guangdong; they have the ability to turn any restaurant, anywhere on earth, into an old Hong Kong-style dim sum eatery. The atmosphere was quite noisy, with crowds waiting in the cramped space left over from packing tables into a room clearly not meant for them. Just like your standard run of the mill Hong Kong dim sum eatery. As for the food, the dishes were pretty tasty. Everything we tried was above average for Honolulu, though more or less average or slightly below average when compared to the dim sum scene in Los Angeles, a 3/star at best. The service was friendly and quick, and the seating area was tight and noisy—no surprises there.

Best dimsum I have ever had. I regret not taking photos, but we were so hungry and excited to try when the food came out that I forgot. Parking is under the building ... and this is a new location according to a lovely elderly couple we met.

Glad we called to check as we are visiting from outside Hawaii. My brother who lives here said they moved. As of March 8, 2026, the restaurant has moved across the street and is very close to the old one. Here is their new address: 747 Amana Street C102, Honolulu, 96814. We loved their dim sum and came back again for dinner. Loved their food. My brother who is a local enjoyed their food dishes and plans to order food for future take out. Good Chinese restaurant to try.

Yesterday I got to try the Sichuan Spicy Boiled Fish Fillet and it was my first time trying and it tasted so good. Also, the the service was very friendly and helpful.

Our foodie group held our annual lunar new year gathering of 33 people - 11 per table, which was too tight but that was our fault for not capping the guest count. The staff was very helpful and accommodating, and everyone thought our set menu selection ($50 per person) was excellent. By the final dishes, though, we were too stuffed to really eat it all. BTW, they serve the rice and veggies toward the end, so if you want those served earlier in the course, you should request that. Parking is a bit of an issue - spots are limited in the lot, so come early before the dining rush if you want to snag one.

This is the first time I've left a 1-star review because I was so upset. The service was terrible. We had been here a few times before and found it quite good, so we returned. We went to eat on December 24th, and the restaurant wasn't too busy. We ordered some dim sum, half a roasted duck, and two stir-fried dishes. They brought out the half-roasted duck, which was still bloody. When we tried it, it tasted very fishy, ​​and the meat in the middle was still raw; the outside was warm, but the inside was very cold. I called the waiter and asked him to reheat it, but he got angry and walked away, saying he would cancel the duck. We politely said that we didn't want to cancel the dish, just wanted it reheated. He looked annoyed and said that the restaurant was very busy and didn't have enough duck to sell, and would only reheat it for a minute. Then he came back and said I was lying because the duck wasn't cold. I asked him if he had tried it? He said he had touched the food with his hand. The duck on the plate was still raw and exactly the same as before. He asked if we wanted to cancel, and we agreed to cancel. After that, they didn't bring out the remaining dishes and said they were out of stock without informing us, so we sat waiting for half an hour. It's terrible that a restaurant would argue with customers when they ask for food to be reheated, and then not bring out the remaining dishes, only saying they were out of stock when asked. We will not be returning and will tell all our friends not to go here.

The dining area is packed full of local people catching up with friends, eating with older relatives. There are a few couples. The process to get a table is a little unclear. Some people were sitting outside, but at the cashier counter a notepad of names and party count seem to be used somewhat. I had to chase someone down to inquire whether there was a wait. Then the people sitting outside came inside and she said "who was first?" She quickly triaged us to 3 different tables. The menu is a paper half sheet and a laminated color picture menu to aid people in making the correct selections. The order is confirmed; tea pot and cups are delivered; paper inventory of your order is taped to the table. As food is delivered they are crossed off the sheet. The portion sizes are very large here. We had to bring home about half of what we ordered because of the generous sizes. The good thing about fresh-out-of-the-kitchen delivery is that everything is steaming hot.

Stopped by Kapiolani Seafood and was pleasantly surprised. It’s in a blue, slightly run-down building, but don’t let that fool you. The food was good. I ordered the clams with black bean sauce, green beans, dumplings, and fried rice. Everything came out flavorful, hot, and fresh. Service was fast and straightforward, and there’s parking available, which is a big plus in this area. Overall, a solid spot if you’re looking for good, no-frills seafood and Chinese dishes. I’d definitely come back.

Authentic Chinese food. Have all day dim sum. Nice wok fried noodles but wish they wiped the wok a bit longer. Wontons weren’t that good. The beef chow fun and peppered steak was good! We skipped the lobster it was $40/lbs

It's not another dim sum place. They have their own flavor. Service was fast and efficient. We got their with people already in line, but we got called after 15 minutes even after listing ourselves 5th in line. It was crowded but surprisingly not noisy and having your (personal) space. Enjoyed the food, especially that it was fair priced. Crispy green onion = exactly what it sounded comparable to that Crispy seafood pancake fresh off the grill Chicken feet - yum, fall off the bone, melt in your mouth. Mild flavor but satisfying. House dumpling - nutty, crispy with umami taste. We enjoyed all.
