NEVERAGAIN. The guy at the counter took my order. Then he went to the bathroom, came out walked into the kitchen, blew his nose or sneezed into his hands and walked to the grill and started cooking. The food order went into the garbage immediately.

Spring Chinese is my ride or die when it comes to ordering chinese food. I am a vegetarian and I stand by their mock Sesame Chicken(it’s wheat gluten). The veggie dumplings are amazing and I do dabble in the fried rice/lo mein whenever I order. I usually make a huge order so I can live off chinese for the weekend. I highly recommend ordering an extra side of broccoli cause there is a ton of sauce on the fake chicken and the broccoli makes you feel a little healthier(not much tbh). I gave 4 stars because honestly, it just doesn’t feel right giving such a divey place 5 stars. Plus delivery can be slow sometimes. Definitely order off grubhub because there are some coupons on there — with my boyfriend and I ordering we can usually get free pork dumplings. This is the only Chinese place I consistently used at my 5 years at Drexel and even still go back to now that I live in Northern Liberties.

Decided to try them on Grubhub since we were in the mood for cheap Chinese. Order came on time. While not bad, the food felt overwhelmed by veggies. My fiancé’s chow mein was literally a mound of onions with bits of shredded pork here and there. When we called back to exchange it, they couldn’t find our order and hung up on me when I went to search for the receipt or at least look it up. They questioned me like I was in the wrong, too. At that point we just sucked it up. The rest of the food(rice, egg roll, good but only mild beef in garlic sauce) was fine by Americanized Chinese standards and I could pick out broccoli. We were hungry. They also skimped on sauce and didn’t even give fortune cookies. It was only $ 15 with tip, but, still. poor customer service. In passing, perhaps. But, I’ll stick to other places for now.

Please do not order from this place. Not only is it a crappy little place on Lancaster ave but in the last few months they do everything they can to make you order more food in order to use your card. Also they no longer give you menus but when you ask for one they charge you for it. They are totally outta control.

If you are a college kid you gotta give this place 5 stars. First of all it is really cheap. The food is more than enough for one meal especially if you get the lunch specials or the combination dishes. I usually order pick up on grubhub. By the time i walk there from my dorm(less than 10 min) the food is ready, fresh and hot. It is always up to my satisfaction. Oh also try random stuff, probably wont be disappointed.

I have gotten takeout a few times, it’s near my son’s daycare. Delicious. Dumplings are huge, plentiful & tasty. Egg foo young is addictive. Good prices. Nicest takeout environment I have seen.(U can dine-In also). I don’t understand mediocre reviews… yummy & cheap.

On two different occasions I have ordered from them and have had to wait more than an hour(a hour & a half actually) for delievery. Mind you I live 3 blocks away. When I called to complain. They gonna tell me that they are very busy. They magically came to deliever in 10 min later. This place has gone down over the last year.

Good food but when they are busy they take forever and if u call and complain they say the food is on it’s way. Took and additional hour after that! Food was cold and the customer service was horrible needless to say I stopped ordering from here.

For what this place is, which s a hole in the wall, its pretty good. I’ve always had take out which is normally very quick and but still always seems fresh. They’ve got a great lunch special and everything else is pretty cheap too. But you do have to pay for fortune cookies.

food is ok. it satisfies the craving for chinese cuisine and the price is unbeatable. This place is a block away from my job so on the days i cant leave the office for even a second, i order in. My only issue with the service… i ordered for delivery and the drver called me and told me he was on the corner and to come get it. when i told him i couldnt leave the office, he gave me an attitude and told me he would come to the door… which is still far enough from my office to where i couldnt even go. I paid the fee for delivery! I’m not coming to get it… a few more feet and i would have been able to just order for pick up!

They’re okay if you’re in the mood for some typical Americanized Chinese food. The food is actually pretty good, but expect an attitude if you use their delivery service. They gave me a completely wrong order, and then treated me as if I did something wrong(and never corrected their mistake). They really need someone else to take orders via phone. I either just go pick it up, or order a pizza because the attitudes they give is scary when someone is cooking your food, ya know?

It is a typical chinese restaurant. The food is good. I recommend general tso’s chicken, shrimp with garlic sauce and hot and sour soup. U must try shrimp with garlic sauce, it will surprise you.

Ugh. This is not a place where you can just pick something that sounds good off the menu without knowing exactly what it is. Avoid the Szechuan-style noodles at all costs. But it sounds like it could be good, right? Well apparently it’s a terrible lo mein with more onions and cabbage than noodles in a gross goopy brown sauce. There wasn’t much noodle going on, let alone anything even remotely Szechuan. I’m by no means a picky eater, and I found them completely inedible. I never ever throw away food, so this must not constitute as food. Even the fries were bad. Who messes up French fries? Spring Chinese Restaurant does. They were hard, dry, and stale tasting. Really? You could buy frozen fries at the grocery store and they’d come out much better than these. At least these were still edible though. The hot and sour soup was decent. Not necessarily good, but passable. The pork fried rice was bland, but also passable. The half a fried chicken was also okay. Delivery took over 20 minutes longer than they said it would, making it a whole hour and twenty minute wait for this miserable meal. They should be ashamed at how bad their food is, even for American takeout Chinese, for which the bar is set pretty low in the first place. I’m giving them two stars only because the food didn’t make me horrendously ill(so far), and it would be(mostly) edible in case of a nuclear holocaust. In fact, the good news is that it might even survive a nuclear holocaust. Evergreen, I’ll never stray from you again. Hell, this place even makes China Inn look tasty.

Yup. Just ordered from here, hoping that the hot and sour soup lived up to the 5 star review… I got Szechuan Chicken, Boneless Pork BBQ App, and Hot and Sour soup. Sadly it was all disappointing. Typical Americanized Chinese food, overly sauced, not spicy at all, and slightly bland. I was really disappointed by the Hot and Sour soup as it lived up to the other reviewer’s comment ‘Neither hot or sour’. I“ll probably order from here again as it wasn’t TERRIBLE, but it wasn’t wonderful either. Maybe I’ll ask whomever takes my order for their favorite dish.

Spring Chinese has the best Hot and Sour soup. Seriously love this place.

Mehhh… not horrible… but not good either. We live near here, less than 5 blocks away. But, we rarely go. The food just isn’t compelling enough to beckon you to come back. I’d much rather drive the 10 minutes to go to Danny’s Wok, or go to Shangri-La. But, I didn’t want to pay cash, I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on dinner, and I really was too tired to go anywhere else, so Spring is where I went. Don’t get your hopes up. They’ll never be a place that lives up to your expectations. But, if your lazy, really don’t want to put out any effort… this place will give you a modicum of sustenance.

Meh. The best way to describe this place. Not amazing, not terrible. Just meh. The food is your typical greasy and cholesterol/heart-attack inducing Chinese food available around the corner of the block. That isn’t to say it is bad — it’s just the Americanized(and nothing compared to the real stuff) Chinese food. The vegetarian options are plenty, although vegetarians should be wary of anything fried — the fryers are the same whether they are frying chicken, pork, beef, or your vegetables. The upside is that the food is quite cheap, and for a location close to several college campuses, I’m sure they’re doing quite well. Just watch your back when you’re in the area; streets in the high 30’s through low 40’s in the Lancaster/Powelton Area can get a bit seedy in the evenings and night.

I rarely order delivery, but when I do it’s always Spring. Their portions are extremely generous, and their garlic sauce rocks. I recommend the spare ribs, roast pork, diet chicken and broccoli, and tofu and veggie soup. The only thing I’ve ordered and haven’t liked is the hot and sour soup– it’s neither hot nor sour.

I DON’T CARETHATYOUDON’T HAVEFORTUNECOOKIES, I LOVEYOUTHEMOST. Super cheap, delivery, and I always have equal-sized leftovers for the next day if I just get a pint of soup and the dumplings. If you crave spice, they can give you spicy– we recommend the spicy garlic wontons, extra spicy, for the daring. Imma try your vegetarian real soon, Spring.
