Great food, great variety, even a Mongolian grill. Very clean and great prices. Only complaint was it was so hot inside.

Horrible customer service . Our waitress didn't stop at all at our table , we didn't get refills on drinks , our plates weren't picked up at all either . Everyone is so rude , will not be coming back / read more

I was in the mood to pig out, it has been a while since I have been to a buffet given everything going on currently. I called and they were open so my guest and I headed over. They weren't crazy busy but also weren't dead empty either. They were taking precautions by social distancing seating and one way paths. They did have a limited buffet which was understandable given they cant have a full house. They also had people serving the food to prevent cross contamination from guests. Everyone was required to wear a mask unless they were sitting at their table. Overall, not a bad setup given the requirements and safety they are trying to stay in line with. The food is just average. In a place like this, I typically go for the fried shrimp, fish, things like that because it always seems to be fresher, but overall everything was decent. They do have amazingly delicious egg drop soup, I had two large helpings. Its this deep yellow rich color. Yum!! Definitely flavorful. The one piece of feedback I would give them would be to train the serving staff that when guests say just a little bit, they genuinely mean a little bit. The server was very generous with the helpings even when I asked for a small amount which meant, I did waste a little food since I couldn't take it with. Right now I am sure the company also would appreciate less waste, so they may want to have a conversation about that with their workers. Other than that no complaints. read more

It's a buffet. A big chain buffet. Good food and large variety. Reasonably priced. Plenty of seating for a larger group.

The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is their soup, it just lacks flavor! I really love coming to this buffet. They have a build your own stir fry station, fresh sushi and a wide variety of items to choose. There really is something for everybody. read more

We entered with high hopes, especially after reading online reviews. While there was a large selection of food, most of it tasted the same. I tried four different chicken dishes and we couldn't really tell them apart. In fact, I had to spit out two different things I tried. The photo is of my second attempt to find something edible. The dumpling smelled off. I had to spit out the fried banana. The Vegetable Spring Roll was too greasy. The only thing edible is the Cream Cheese Wonton. The reason I'm even giving two stars is because the wontons were delicious and we appreciated the COVID cautions (requiring the use of masks, the utilization of disposable gloves and tableware, etc). read more

I went there for a late lunch after church today. I have been throwing up the shrimp for the last 2 hours. Worst diarrhea I have ever had. Seriously, very, very sick. If it gets worse, I'm going to go to the ER because I don't know how I can have any fluids left. It was the only thing that I ate today. I have driven by there every week for a year now and always wanted to go... huge mistake. Eat here at your own risk- seriously!!! read more

for starters three and a half stars but no option for that so here we go. Pay up front, get your table and the feast is on!!!!. There are four rows of food available starting with the cold station with fruit, salads, dressings, desserts and cold sauces. Next up is the hot food, typical chinese takeout dishes like broccoli beef, sweet and sour chicken, fried chicken, fried fish, baked chicken, baked fish, chinese bbq pork ribs (delicious), baked ribs, hot and sour soup, egg drop soup and many other options that will take too long to remember and list. Seriously, there is a lot of protein options as well as a Mongolian bbq area and some sushi rolls in the back corner. They must serve steak at dinner time as there is a sign but none being cooked when i was here for lunch. Interesting observations at this restaurant. In the hour I was there I only saw one person use the Mongolian BBQ. The sushi rolls are not labled and the lady preparing it was so busy talking to one of the other staff members i walked away. Overall the restaurant and buffet lines are very clean and well attended but some of the food i took could have been warmer. I am a former food service worker and hot food is supposed to be kept at 140 degrees. That is hot enough that you should notice. Many of the hot items were warm to cold by the time i sat down to eat. If you like chicken wings, load up, there was plenty. The fried shrimp and fish were pretty good and crispy but the shrimp was mostly breading. Some interesting finds in the buffet options were ground beef enchiladas, garlic bread, baby octopus in some sauce, broccoli chicken if you dont want beef, french fries, some sad looking pizza and one item that i really enjoyed was the cream cheese puffs and the chinese bbq ribs. I could have eaten a hundred of those puffs. A note about the broccoli beef, they are way over tenderizing whatever cheap cut of beef they procure as it was mushy and barely had a consistency denser than the sauce. As stated before the staff was on top of it. I never noticed any food spilled all over the buffet lines, the floor was clean and most of the food was restocked quickly as some of the popular items go quick. My waitress stopped by 5-6 times to clear plates and refill my soda. read more

This place always has fresh food and keeps up with keeping the line clean. There's so many options of food to select. I definitely will suggest this place to my friends and family. read more

Worst Buffet I've ever been to. Food was hard and Stale. Beef broccoli was Sweet? What the heck and the sushi did not look appetizing. Fish tasted like it had been frozen since the ice age. Bathrooms looked like I was in down town La With graffiti all over. I will never come back here or bring my family here. I'm so surprised this place is still in business. Look at the dust on the ceiling! What's the heck read more

I'm sorry for this review! Please please clean your bathrooms!!!!!! Every time we come they are so dirty! The food is great tho!

Mongolian bbq and steak section was unstaffed during my visit, I was disappointed that that portion of the restaurant. the buffet food was not very good read more

My two issues is only one bathroom stall was opened had to wait over 5 minutes for the one stall to be available my second issue I don't understand why empty plates and glasses aren't removed from table after each use it basically leaves a clutter and no room to eat more if desired. read more

You can't go wrong with this place. Mostly Asian food. Server was quick with the drinks. Selection is nice. Gets pretty packed at lunch and dinner. So I recommend going in between that time. read more

I dont possibly see how this place has only 3 stars. I'm asian, and I've been to dozens of Asian buffets. But this place is the cleanest and the servers are really good at their jobs. They have quite a bit of selection to choose from. Barely any Asians go here though, when we went we were the only ones. read more

Very mediocre Asian buffet, and I've been to many of them. The sushi station had VERY limited offerings...just variations on imitation crab California rolls. No salmon or tuna of any kind. No steamed crab legs or fresh boiled shrimp. Much of the Asian food was overcooked and some of it outright burned (like the Teriyaki chicken). Not good and not worth the $13 senior discount price of lunch. Also lacked coordination. After paying and getting my food, no one brought my drink to the table. I had to ask someone in the back to get it. Needless to say, I will not be back. read more

They will start stopping the habachi area and hrs before closing and stop refilling foods by then, full price will be charged regardless. Just an fyi for other ppl, at 8:30 or maybe earlier before they stop making it an "all you can eat" lol. The service was normal and fine. read more

Food wasn't hot enough, Some items looked old. Ice cream is alright it taste more like frozen yogurt. For how big it is i expected more.

Awesome selection, lots of variety. Limited seafood but what I tried was good. Liked all I tried except for spare ribs (a little fattier than I like). Ample selection of great chicken (pineapple chicken was delicious), lots of various soups and rice noodles. To top it off lot and lots of dessert options. Very good for the price. read more

Best buffet in town! Spacious and delicious food. I love the fried rice and fried noodle. The line is getting pretty long during holiday season. read more

How do people think this place is good is beyond me. Not sure what processed me to come to a buffet maybe it was the too many drinks and I was just really hungry for a lot of food. OMG this place was pretty bad even buzzed! The sushi rolls looked horrifying I didnt touch them most other foods were over cooked, or over seasoned. Nothing looked really fresh just a lot of cooked Chinese food. Plus there was a ton of people in there didnt feel that safe really. No repeat for me but we are rarely in Phoenix anyway. read more

Huge lunch selection. Food was cooked and good. Very clean,and courteous waitress who stayed on top of cleaning our plates and bringing drinks. They have a good sushi selection. And a lot of different meats to choose from. Even octopus. We will definitely be coming back. read more

Cold food not much variety for price . Bad customer service at register girls on phone and don't care about customers . Ambiance ok I guess

My wife and I went in tonight and had great service and the food was good. We will go back.

Very unexpected surprise here. Excellent value and the food is fantastic! I would highly recommend this restaurant.

First time last night, we are from out of town, food was good, staff was nice and friendly. The only thing no military discount. But everything else was great read more

I am a huge fan of asian buffets and it was only time before I visited Lin's Grand Buffet. I am going to start this review with the food is sub-par at best, but I STILL gave it 4 stars and here is why. When you drive up to Lin's you notice that there is ample parking everywhere. I drive by this place every day and I cannot remember a time the parking lot was not filled with cars. That is usually an indicator. You walk into the facility and you notice how clean and majestic the entire place looks. The asian themed glasswork, the huge stone horses above the buffet along with modern/rustic aged wood tables really brings the place alive. I paid for my meal was seated immediately. Beverages came quick and I was off to ravage the buffet. The buffet is an assortment of every nationality and ethnicity. You could get traditional Chinese food with Mexican enchiladas and Southern fried fish. Ordinarily this would be off-putting, but no where in the name did it say it was a Chinese buffet. The Mongolian grill attendant was prompt and cooked my selection quick. The sushi section had an actual sushi chef working in there and the buffet itself was clean and well stocked. The food is what you would expect from a Buffet. No one goes to a buffet for how "great" the food it, but rather the selection and undoubtedly, the quantity. I polished off 4 plates myself. Some highlights of good tasting food included the soups, Jalapeño Chicken and the deserts. The rest of the food was mediocre and it was hard to discern from the 20 chicken dishes that looked identical. the shrimp was pretty stale and the fresh fruit all had freezer burn after tastes. I am still puzzled why there is a selection of 6 or 7 salad dressings, when all the salads in the trough already come with dressing on them. Despite all of this, our entire meal for 2 including drinks and tax came to $32. That is a win. Most buffets for dinner range in the $15.99 - $18.99 per person. This place was $12 per person. Again, I am hard pressed to find any food connoisseur that goes to buffet for their extraordinary food. You go there for selection. This place was clean, great service, and a steal at $12 per person. I definitely recommend coming here as a budgeted dinner option. Again, it is a buffet for $12. read more

Love this place! I actually HATE buffets because I have major issues with dirty places because of a food poisoning experience. This place is clean and I love that they use disposable plates and cups and offer gloves. Food is good and super fresh, they have great variety and quality of the place.

This place was ok but really greasy and unorganized. I went when it was crowded just not that great

Everything was Yummy!!! Especially the Mongolian Grill! The service is EXCELLENT at the Mongolian Grill!!! read more

Fruit taste like tin cans, dirty dishes wet dishes. Yuck! Having in that sort of business, I know to inspect dishes and utensils, to make sure they are clean and not dripping with water! read more

The food was great very tasty also had steak made when ordered to your liking. Waiter was very tend full and staff were very friendly.

The food was excellent. It was hot and regularly switched out. Ambiance was nice atmosphere. Bad thing was the woman's bathroom. It needed some serious attention. The bathroom looked like it hadn't been attended to in a week. Some of the stalls were locked. No toilet paper in one of the remaining two. They need to up their service on the bathroom. I would give it a poor. read more

I must say this is the best Chinese buffet I have been to in my life of 60 plus years! The thing that's really good about it is the quality of the food that they use is exceptional which is unusual for buffets. Nothing was greasy or killed with batter. The only Improvement would be if they had boiled shrimp and duck sauce. But even with those two things that we love not on the menu, we will definitely be back. read more

Love the food but whoever works at the front and answers phone calls is rude and completely ignored me and hung up on me when I called twice. It was our first time there and we loved it except for that. read more

I'm in Arizona on business,and of course we get hungry so I'm actually on my way to Joe's Crab Shack but they were closed I drove up a little while longer and bumped into a gem of a place called Lin's. Service great!! Good food and they have gloves for you to gather food. So not only were they up to date with COVID-19 protocol their service and decor was great. Thanks a bunch I will visit again. read more

Such a variety of food and with the Buffet, it is a free-for-all. Can't wait until all of the restrictions are lifted from Covid. I would like to have seen what it was like before. Hope to get There again very soon. read more

First thing I noticed when we were about to start getting food, there's like no order to how people got their food. People just cutting in front of you left and right. Food wasn't that great. I can say the clams were good and steak was alright. Sushi is what I would compare to gas station sushi 0/10. If rather spend 15 or more at golden coral then going here again. read more

great! my teacher has been there, I am going tomorrow!!! the food looks good and the services would turn out good! this has everything! the cuisines would look cool! Ambiance is gonna turn out great! read more
