Really consistent great food. Nice, quick and friendly service. General Tso's Chicken is fantastic! Lunch combo deals too.

The customer service was horrible. I went here from a referral from a customer who always gets carry out. The older woman taking our order was very rude, and instantly told us prices were higher different for dining in as soon as we entered the restaurant. I wanted to order a small/side portion of pork fried rice for a toddler and she told me we don't do that. I didn't feel welcome at all and was very shocked by her behavior. $27.46 total for pork fried rice, and combination with small side of plain rice. The food was not bad. I would not recommend. read more

We come here regularly. Their combo fried rice is as good as it gets and the large is a huge portion lots of meat shrimp veggies and flavor.

Best moo goo gai pan you can ever find. Absolutely delectable I've been ordering for years and it has never changed always perfect. The eggrolls fluctuate but on a scale of one to 10 they're generally an eight sometimes a 10 but on average they're good but moo goo gai pan is definitely a 20. read more

The General Tso's chicken was excellent. Very very crispy and so good. Perfectly spicy for me

This is far and away the best Asian food for miles around. I come here often and I'm always surprised that it comes out better every time. The lunch special is affordable and always amazing. I would drive an hour to get their sesame chicken. The staff is also so very nice, they make me smile 6/5 stars read more

Hunan Spring - H2. Sesame Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Evanston, Illinois

It's ok. The portions are big, especially the vegetable dishes. We were not wowed by any of the dishes.

Omg I came here on a whim one day looking for Chinese food in the area. I ended up getting general pso's chicken. The portion was huge and it was extremely hot (not spicy) read more

Still good food. Going for dinner is much more expensive though. My sweet and sour chicken, shrimp fried rice, egg roll and soda was $21 (including tip). read more

The Wonton soup was ok. Lots of tasty wontons. Sweet and sour pork wasn't good. The small pieces of pork surrounded by so much breading. Reminded me of a Tootsie Roll Pop, because it took so much work to get to the center. There were no vegetables to be found. The sweet sauce was artificial in color and tasteless. Egg foo yong tasted of burned oil. read more

Mixed bag. Potstickers are doughy and gummy. Other stuff is ok. Always get delivery and it's usually average

A very long overdue review, but Hunan Spring is my favorite place to go for Chinese food in Evanston. I'm lucky enough to live essentially right next door, and when I want something quick and delicious, there they are! I especially appreciate the lunch specials. About $10 will get you an entree, side of fried rice (which I sometimes sub for white rice), and your choice of eggroll or soup. I usually have enough left over for a second meal later. The owners are extremely nice, food is fresh and delicious, and service has always been very quick for me. Very highly recommend Hunan Spring! read more

Hunan Spring - General Tso's Chicken lunch special - Chinese Near Me - Evanston, Illinois

As far as delicious, quick and classic Chinese food goes, Hunan Spring hits it out of the park. I was honestly shocked to see the mediocre reviews. They were a very easy go-to spot for take-out during covid. Online ordering and pick up was a breeze! Now that dine-in is back, I continue to support this business. Service is fast and the food is affordable. The restaurant is very clean and the tables are distanced well. Whenever I'm craving Chinese cuisine, this is a place I can lean on. It's not anything super fancy, just greasy and reliable. Some of my favorite choices are the crab rangoon, general tso's chicken, and any of the lo meins. The entrees come with white rice and the portions are pretty hefty. Whenever I order take-out, I know I'll have leftovers to last the next few days. Definitely give it a try! read more

It's decent! 1. First off it's very clean in there. The tables, floors and counters are pretty clean and well maintained. That always makes me feel good coming into restaurant 2. Customer service is good. I made my order on the phone, changed my mind on something and called back and the man was pleasant about it 3. Ordered the pepper steak and it was decent. There's a ton of onions, less beef and gravy. I was sad there wasn't enough gravy to it. Decent enough flavor. Didn't wow me but I was expecting it to not be good and it was good. I'd come back and order something different read more

Wow. Ordered pick up dishes. They were prepared SO quickly. First time there. Awesome food. Some of the freshest Chinese food I've ever had!! I'll be back again and again. read more

Food is amazing. Absolutely delicious. I order online and it's ready for pick up on time. Staff is friendly and very helpful.

Hunan Spring - L11 Mixed Chinese Vegetables - Chinese Near Me - Evanston, Illinois

its great for cheap but delicious Chinese food though not that authentic. The owner is so friendly. Recommend very Chinese student to try.

I'm sorry to say but this is some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had. Just an order of fried vegetable dumplings as an appetizer...big, thick doughy pouches with overcooked vegetable mush inside. Could not even get through one. Don't like giving bad reviews but this is inedible. Maybe they do some dishes better but I do recall that many years ago we stopped ordering from here because the quality went way down. Didn't think they could mess dumplings up. Come on now. read more

Sadly, no pics for this order. I was walking home from Happy Hour with a friend and the smells from the restaurant reached me on the sidewalk. I've never really had a "go-to" Chinese restaurant in Chicago, so I thought I would pick up something to go. I ordered a combination meal: General Tso's Chicken with pork fried rice and an egg roll. Good portion sizes, and the food was spot on flavor-wise. I don't know that I would go in for a sit down meal, but I'll definitely put it on the roster for take-out. read more

Always love the food from here. After moving Cross country, I still stop by here when I'm in town. I switch between the sweet and sour chicken or tofu and the Mongolian chicken. So good! read more

I really wanted to love this place. It's so conveniently located to home and was highly recommended by a friend. Normally we are ok with driving all the way to Chinatown to enjoy a nice lunch plus all the good shopping in the area. But we thought we should finally give Hunan Spring a try for lunch. They have several different lunch entrees where you also get an egg roll or soup included. I went with the General Tso's chicken, fried rice and the hot and sour soup. My wife got the Shrimp and Lobster sauce, fried rice and the egg roll. Hot & Sour Soup: very nice flavor and ingredients but the consistency was overly gelatinous. Still, very tasty. General Tao's Chicken: Very Good Fried Rice: No Bueno, weird flavor, very dry, some gristle, I should have asked for white rice instead. Shrimp & Lobster Sauce: The shrimp were on the tough side but not inedible. The sauce was not lobster sauce where they include fermented black beans. Very bland, and shrimp had little flavor. Egg Roll: Above Average, crispy and piping hot. Cleanliness: Exceptional Service: Ok Value: Not Bad The verdict? I think we are going to stick with Chinatown but may give this place another shot in the future. read more

Got a delivery through Grubhub - food is really good! I'm delighted to find a good Chinese resto that delivers to Evanston!

I've ordered from here several times now and the taste and speed of their delivery can't be beat! Really delicious flavors and textures of each dish. Even the fortune cookies taste more delicious to me for some reason! These folks are my go to now. I enjoy them greatly! read more

My favorite Chinese takeout for many years. Food is quick, fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. Love the Chicken Almond Ding and Beef Broccoli. read more

This used to be my go-to spot in Evanston for quick-service and takeout Chinese food. Sadly, I came back when I was in the neighborhood and brought it home to Chicago and was disappointed. What used to be a solid 4 (4.5?) star place is reduced to acceptable fare. I used to order the hot and sour soup for an elderly relative and he loved it, but we didn't order it this time around so I can't vouch for it anymore. We probably ordered 20 times from them from 2006 to 2016... The lo mein is worth it. Like many, many Chinese restaurants in Chicagoland, they make some items really well and others, not so much. It's just that all those years ago, they hardly made a miss. Not sure what has happened. To be fair, though, let's start with what was still good. 1. Service. They are friendly, patient and make accommodations and special requests. For this reason alone I could continue to order from them. Orders are made correctly, accurately, and packaged securely. 2. Speed. Orders are ready when they say they will be. Never disappointed by them on this. 3. Price. Not cheap, but not expensive. Items we ordered that I would definitely recommend: the combination lo mein. Also their chicken with garlic sauce is very good. Sadly, everything else we ordered was average. Orange chicken was over-breaded terribly, and the sauce became a sticky goop. Wonton soup, which used to be excellent, is a shadow of its former self. The broth had no flavor whatsover, so I'm of the belief someone made a mistake when making it. Wontons themselves were sad although the noodles used to make them are good. Crab rangoon was passable. I'd try them again to give them another chance. read more

Always fresh ingredients and friendly delivery. I have been ordering from here for delivery and takeout for many years.

To be honest, I kind of miss the old days when it was just a corner fast food joint with limited seating and a focus on takeout. They have expanded into a full-fledged restaurant, but the good news is that the food is just as good as ever. There is a wide range of options, and I could live on the fried rice if it had just a touch more flavor or heat. My daughter loves the sweet-and-sour chicken, and the Mushu is also really, really good. Service is really fast and good . It may not be gourmet, but it's flavorful, authentic, and a great deal. read more

The amount of onion in my shrimp fried rice is ridiculous. Unfortunately won't be returning for that item. On the other hand the crab rangoon was very good. read more

Hunan Spring - Chinese Near Me - Evanston, Illinois

This place has always been mediocre. I've lived in Evanston off and on for 20 years and no matter when I give this place a try, my expectations were never met. This is the closest Chinese restaurant to my house, so this is the only reason why I choose this place at times when needing to satisfy my cravings. I ordered a large egg foo young and large beef and broccoli this last time. The portion size definitely did not equate to what a large should have been. I know the cost of doing business has gone up, but to still charge an outrageous price for that small amount of food and not even provide utensils or sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce is unacceptable. I definitely will not be back. I have given this place too many chances over the last 20 years. This last time I was hoping they would have changed or at least met my expectations after being away from Evanston for 7 years. read more

Great food. Nice portions. Always ready on time. This is our Chinese go-.to. We drive 20 minutes for it even though other places are closer. We always get Szechuan chicken, chicken with broccoli, hot and sour soup and almond cookies. All are delicious. read more

I love the General Tsos tofu from here. Often times open earlier than posted hours which helps me out a lot since I work nights and am walking past there at 10am. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. read more

Food was overly salty on one occasion and the next time the egg rolls tasted like fish oil.

I haven't had them in well over a year and it was pretty good. I thought I would try them out this for lunch I was extremely disappointed. The rice was under cooked, and flavorless. The broccoli had a strange fish taste which really confused me because I got chicken. read more
