★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Robert Dixey · Dec 2024

Overall Score: 1.2/10 – A standard Chinese takeout spot with easy online ordering and prompt service, but the low-quality chicken and lack of spice ruined the overall experience. Atmosphere and Service: 4.2/10 – The restaurant is a typical takeout-only spot with a messy and unpolished appearance. The menu offers a nostalgic Boston-style selection that could appeal to some diners. However, the standout positive was the seamless online ordering process, which included an email receipt, and the food was ready on time. General Tso’s Chicken: 2.9/10 – A major letdown that ruined the entire experience. The chicken was of poor quality, with a significant amount of hard cartilage making it unpleasant to eat.

In my 70+ yrs of life, chinese food has always been a favorite ever since I can remember my earliest memories growing up outside of Boston. We had great chinese food everywhere in the city and suburbs. Fast forward and life has brought me to living in a variety of places with horrible chinese food - rural kentucky to high end michelin star chinese - Oslo Norway. Add in a trip to China and I've seen a very wide spectrum of Chinese cuisine. So far, Lin's Garden is the second worst that I have ever experienced. First worst was in Paducah KY. Now Lin's - hard to believe any chinese food can be called bland but they have managed it. Gen Tso chicken and pork lo mein - terrible. The chicken itself was cooked ok, but the sauce was just weird tasting flat and devoid of the normal Gen Tso spices. T

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 ZBKAK Inc · Oct 2025

Food was terrible, a waste of my $39. Fried chicken wings were hard and flavorless! Never had flavorless chicken wings from a Chinese restaurant. Egg rolls were nasty, looked pink in places inside of it, idk just weird. The crab Rangoon had no crab in it and was just a cream that again was far from tasty. First and last time going

★★★★★ 5.0 Raymond Anselmo · Dec 2025

Hands down the best Chinese food in the area. Chicken and broccoli taste fantastic and the sweet and sour chicken was great too so soft and tasty. The owners are super nice and friendly. I highly recommend them.

So far this is the best Chinese food we've found in the area. If you want fortune cookies, make sure to ask for them! Wonderful family owned and run take out business.
