" I frequently visit Lin's and have generally enjoyed my time here. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making sure that we have enough drinks and our plates cleared. Unfortunately, the food quality has noticeably declined over the years. The selection is still large, but too many items taste similar and are lacking the authentic touch that I used to appreciate. I hope they focus on boosting flavor in their dishes while maintaining a diverse menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving variety in your meal, you'd love this buffet! I genuinely enjoyed the numerous choices and couldn’t resist going back for seconds. While many dishes lacked the bold flavors typical of true Chinese cuisine, the plentiful options kept me satisfied. The staff made sure my drinks were always full, which is a big plus for me. I might return with some friends just for the atmosphere and variety, but authenticity isn’t there. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a really below-average experience here, and I was quite disappointed. The first thing I noticed was that many of the food items were lukewarm at best. The variety was there, but the flavors were quite generic and unmemorable. My expectations for an Asian buffet were certainly not met. I personally felt that the place was riding on its location rather than the quality of the food and service. The decor and cleanliness were fine, but that doesn’t make up for the lack of authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I always have a good time at Lin's Grand Buffet! The variety is enormous and appropriate for all ages. I don't expect a Michelin star experience, but the food is always decent enough, and the atmosphere is lively. Every time I go, my family leaves full and happy. A great place for those looking for a casual dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have a love-hate relationship with Lin's. The atmosphere is often bustling and friendly, making it a fun spot for a quick meal. However, the food lacks authenticity, and I can’t help but feel that most of it is Americanized. The fusion of flavors isn't enough to satisfy a genuine craving for Chinese food. The selection is vast, but quality should definitely be improved. " (*Curated Review*)

" A fine dining experience in buffet format! Every dish I tried was satisfactory, with hints of traditional flavors that made my taste buds dance in delight. The sushi selection was acceptable, and the grilled items were fresh. Perfect for families who want a bit of everything. I will be coming back to enjoy this buffet again and again! Just a minor complaint, the rice could've been fluffier. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just came back from enjoying a family dinner and it was quite satisfying! The VIP treatment we received from the wait staff was exceptional. I particularly liked their fresh salad bar and several unique options I hadn’t seen in other buffets. However, not all items were great - the dumplings could use more flavor. If you are looking for an affordable dining option, give Lin's a shot! " (*Curated Review*)
