The food was excellent, fresh, and had an authentic Chinese flavor. I will be back.
Nothing like the friend chicken wigs with pork friend rice. Been having this hangover cure since I was a teen. Love east coast Chinese take out.
Orange chicken & Pork fried rice with a drink, lunch special. (Way better thank Panda Express) This is my 4th time eating from this place and it’s so good!
Food was tasty & good !! 10 out of 10. This was the after math lol

Shrimp Lo Mein arrived hot and as described to my hotel lobby when I was too tired to walk over for takeout. They honored my special request (extra vegetables) and their delivery protocol/process was refreshingly easy. Thank you Lin’s Gourmet for a perfect Friday night meal! I didn’t get chopsticks but I didn’t ask, so that was a me-problem.
My go-to chinese takeout spot in the city. They make the best fried chicken wings ever. Sesame chicken and lo mein is great as well.
10/10!!! Really good food. Service was quick and easy. The place looks really clean. My first time here and I would definitely be back. The prices are pretty reasonable and they offer lunch specials.

Decent. American Chinese Food. Probably closer to a 3.5; rounding up. Ordered delivery and was super quick. Ended up getting the: 29. House Special Lo Mein - Small C1 Chicken with Garlic Sauce Platter (Comes with Choice of Rice and Side; I got pork fried rice and egg roll) I thought the house special lo mein was really good actually. Good amount of protein between chicken, pork, and shrimp. The combination dish was ok. Not a whole lot of flavor in the chicken. Pork Fried rice average. Unfortunately, a subpar egg roll. Underfilled, too much dough, over-fried. They have some other dishes I want to try, so I'll be back to reevaluate.

Friendly service with short wait time and fair prices. Generously full stomach after eating our meals. Ordered the chicken & egg plant on fried rice and beef & broccoli on fried rice. Well rounded flavours and we were soon set into waddling mode. Will definitely order again when visiting the city next time.

I didn't love it. Maybe other dishes are great but mine was only okay. Good price. Fresh but not much flavor.
It is what you think it is. Good portion sizes. Orange chicken good, lo mein good, crab Rangoon good. Do not get the sweet and sour chicken.

I was disappointed with my experience here. First off my main reason for ordering was to get Crab Rangoons, needless to say they forgot to send my order! Second, I have never had peas in my fried rice so that threw me off. Third I ordered peanut noodles and it was like the just plopped a few spoon fulls of sauce on top of cold/soggy noodles. I will say the General Chow chicken was good, but that’s it.
The dumplings were tasty and the order contained 8 of them. For some reason I thought it was only 3 so got 2 orders - too many dumplings. But the rest of the food (lomein and pepper steak) was tasteless. Perhaps the spicier dishes would have been better.

I ordered boneless spareribs and French fries and the spareribs were uneatable !!! All fat no rib !!! For 14 dollars I expect more the a dollar worth of French fries ! I will never eat here again !!! Plus they changed me for sauce! The worst !!!
Ordered shrimp fried rice with chicken wings. Shrimps were uncleaned and made meal inedible

Disappointing Experience I recently visited this place and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. While I was looking forward to a delicious meal I expected a much better experience based on the reviews, but this visit left me disappointed. I hope they can address these issues
The food taste was not good , and bad experience ordering the food by phone .
Although the food is great, they insist if you use card and do not tip they will charge extra . Took over an hr for food and the location and asking the person what is the order he didnt want to say.Gave the food very rude and could not expect a tip if the service was not provided yet!
Feel bad leaving this one star review. I've been coming here for about 6 years and it has been a flawless experience but today I was treated like garbage for absolutely no reason. I think she's over worked she's taking orders on the phone and got super frustrated and passed that energy down to me. 9/21/25 1:45PM skinny taller female. She also got my order wrong feel bad for her.
Sesame chicken is very good with white rice however the delivery man was so nasty and rude to me. Yelling over the phone, which is unacceptable shoved my food at me and almost ran me over with his bike
