" First time at Lin's and it was quite an experience! The dumplings were a delicious appetizer and pretty filling. Main dish was the beef and broccoli combo, which was fresh and flavorful – surprisingly not greasy! Staff was attentive and helpful. I could tell that this place takes pride in their food. Just keep in mind it's a takeout environment, so patience is required at busy times. All things considered, I largely enjoyed my visit and will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my doubts before ordering from Lin's, given the mixed reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken fried rice was fragrant and comforting, and my boyfriend really enjoyed the sweet and sour chicken. We both agreed that the egg rolls were a bit too soggy for our taste, but overall, we had a good experience. I could see myself ordering from here more often! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lin's was a real surprise! The food arrived faster than expected, and I was thrilled with the freshness of the ingredients. The egg rolls were crispy and light, and the chicken fried rice had an exciting flavor. I loved that everything was made to order. This is a fantastic option if you’re looking for a reliable takeout spot in Antigonish. I’ll be coming back to try more of the menu soon, as my first experience was very positive!

" I’ve tried various Chinese restaurants around the country, and I must say Lin's offers decent Canadian-style Chinese food. It's definitely not the most authentic, but the flavors are familiar and comforting. The fried rice usually has just the right amount of seasoning, and the chicken balls are a favorite among my friends. The combos offer good portions – enough to share! I appreciate the quick and friendly service every time, which seems to make up for any minor shortcomings in the food. If you're looking for a no-frills, tasty Chinese meal, Lin's is the place.

" I just picked up our order from Lin's, and I’m so impressed! We had a feast with lots of different entrees, and everything was better than I expected. The sweet and sour chicken was delicious, and the fried rice was packed with flavor. I also thought the lemon chicken was excellent! Our meal was hot and ready when we got there, and the staff were incredibly friendly. I might just have found my new favorite Chinese restaurant in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have tried many Chinese restaurants in the area, and Lin's ranks high on my list. They always have a great selection and the food is always extremely tasty. I often go for their sweet and sour chicken because it tastes fresh and tangy, paired with fluffy rice. The staff makes me feel welcome, and I appreciate the speed of service. The environment is nothing fancy but it's perfect as a no-fuss dinner option. Highly recommend it for anyone craving Chinese food! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the staff was friendly, the quality of the food did not meet my expectations during my visit to Lin's. The sweet and sour chicken balls were overly fried to the point they were dry and tasteless. I had high hopes for the ginger beef as I've heard great things about it, but I found the sauce overwhelmingly sugary. The egg rolls looked promising, but they lacked the crunch I was hoping for. If you're after excitement in flavors, I would suggest looking elsewhere – better options are available in Halifax for sure. " (*Curated Review*)
