Crab Rangoons we're good everything else was bland and flavorless. I was so excited to have Chinese food since I haven't had any since I moved to San Antonio and tried this place . Soo disappointed. Beef lomien and sesame chicken was lacking flavor, maybe y'all need to add msg. But I know good Chinese food from New York and even Las Vegas but this was dreadful . Way too plain .

Lin's Express has been our go-to Chinese takeout for several years. We frequent both the Alamo Ranch and the Culebra locations. We have suggested Lin's Express to family and friends as well. Their food is always good. However...Today, January 11th, 2024, we called in an order to the Culebra location. Included in our order was 2 orders of chicken fried rice. I personally love this dish, here. I order it often.Something changed. The chicken fried rice does not taste the same. I don't know if they added some new seasonings or they are following different recipes. But, I did not enjoy it, unfortunately.I tried calling the restaurant at least 4 times, but each time it went to voicemail and the voicemail is full. I wanted to ask if they hired new cooks. There is no other way to contact them.Too bad. The portions are plentiful and I really enjoy stopping there whenever I wanted something tasty. They are right in the neighborhood. But, I don't like the new taste. Maybe it's just me. But I won't go back. Sorry, Lin's Express

I think Lynn's express is pretty much exactly what you would expect it to be. Food probably pre-frozen and cooked very quickly. I don't think it's the best but my husband loves it, it's the closest Asian food that's good to get in our area, so it gets the job done. I've come to the conclusion that it depends on what you order. One of the oddest things to me is when they give you fried rice as a side, it's literally only fried rice no egg, green onion, nothing that would give it flavor. I got the beef lo mein & the low mein tasted very rubbery and noodles were missing something that gave the normal lo mein flavor. So far the thing I've consistently ordered and enjoyed the most was the sesame chicken with steamed rice.

I usually don't particularly enjoy the local Chinese food spots around here but I saw a tiktok of some Chinese food that made me real hungry. Last night these guys completely changed my mind, holy hell their food was DELICIOUS!! This place is good. Don't let the negative reviews here fool you. I loved it and I can't wait to go back!Also, the guy who took my order was very polite and super nice. He even gave me some candy for my kids. Loved the food and the customer service! Thank yall!

Horrible, horrible, horrible! Save your money and go to another Chinese restaurant in your area. Soggy orange chicken, stale crab ragoons, dry chow mein, watery kung pow shrimp. I have tried this restaurant twice, now and have been disappointed both times!
My wife and I went for lunch at lin's express. The service was great. I had the seafood combination with fried rice. The food was fresh and delicious. The best part is the portions were Outstanding. Definitely we'll be coming back.

Ok I don't know what happened. So I lived in Japan as a kid and sometimes I stop at lins because they had pretty closed to the yakisoba that I would eat in Japan... I bought chicken today... no flavor and very little chicken, I get food cost went up but normally when I get the cheaper chicken pineapple fried rice it has plenty of chicken. This taste more like oil than any seasonings and the noodles are soggy and clumped together in the bottom. I will give it one more go at some point because it's so close to where I live. I just hopes it lives up to my craving for yakisoba next time because this just made me kinda sad. I gave 3 stars because literally every other time I have been there I reallllllyyyy enjoy the food.
