    Front entrance to Lin's Grill

    No real ambiance but it's clean. No overwhelming customer service but they are fast. No flaming platters, just really good and tasty Chinese food that takes you back to every single carryout you always came back to again ... And again.

    General tso, combination lo mein, crab ragoon, and egg roll, combination fried rice ( FED 4 PEOPLE)

    Amazing flavor! Amazing Chinese- I am new to the area and was looking for a Chinese take out place! High recommend general Tao's chicken, lo mein ( combination) egg roll and crab ration !!

    Ordered chicken wings and they have party drums, some of the saddest stuff I've seen
    Kyel R.

    I live in the southeastern part of the state so I may be jaded, but I still felt this was an appropriate rating. My friend ordered chicken wings so we were expecting a traditional 4 or 5 regular sized wings but was given party drumsticks, pathetic. Also their regular dishes are grossly overpriced. This place may only thrive because it is in Northern VA because all of our food was pretty sad.

    Brown, not fried, rice

    Delivery was great. We heard that Lin's is good and tried them 2 times. Both times, we received brown, not fried, rice. The first time, they said we had asked for brown rice (my receipt showed fried rice). The second time, they claimed that we did have fried rice. We didn't. Last time ordering from there.

    Hibachi Chicken: All Thigh Meat!

    I am unclear why people are raving about this place. This a pretty standard American Chinese take out establishment. There's nothing unique or authentic about this place. It's perfectly good American Chinese but's NOT authentic Chinese & it not fantastic. I had the hibachi chicken & it's basically stir fried all chicken thigh meat with a 1/4 amount of veggies ON A HUGE BED of RICE. The chicken & veggies are tossed in a very small amount of teriyaki. I could barely taste it. I had to add 2 packets of soy sauce to the entire entree to give it the dish flavor. The veggies are cabbage, broccoli & carrots. It was fine but I was not that impressed & definitely won't be returning anytime soon. I also found the staff to be a bit surly & unapproachable. They did not make any attempt to be welcoming, friendly, helpful or kind. There are plenty of other very good American & Authentic Chinese take out restaurants that have better food & service.

    Beware, the cashew chicken is made with peanuts, not cashews!

    Typical Chinese style carryout place. They offer wide rice noodles (Chow Fun) that most take out places in Manassas do not offer. My order included cashew chicken. They charged a buck extra to add a few snow peas. That's OK, they gotta make money wherever they can. However, when I got home, the "cashew" chicken was made with peanuts. If they're going to go cheap on the ingredients, I'll go elsewhere!

    a bowl of noodles with meat and vegetables

    HORRIBLE and rude, if i could give a 0 star i would. lady was rude and she seemed like she didnt to be there and denied me the bathroom and another guy in the rest said they're always like that. NEVER going back and do not recommend

    I came seeking something easy on the stomach, but good on the tastebuds. I landed a lightly…read moreseasoned tofu dish with a mouthwatering onion and pepper flavor, and a convincingly decadent chocolate cake. Plenty of other options were available for when I get my tolerance for spicy food back, as the place leans Szechuan. Takeout was an efficient process even though they did not take online payments; I just paid when I got there. The location is a bit past the airport, which is probably a better place to look for Chinese food than most of downtown DC.

    I've found Cheng's to be a reliable go-to when I am craving good Chinese food. Their portions are…read moregenerous, and many dishes are packed with bold flavor and freshness, whether you are in the mood for something spicy, savory, or mild. You get good food at reasonable prices. Some of my favorites include Crispy Shredded Beef in Spicy Sauce, Fried Chicken Nuggets with Basil (a Taiwanese native favorite), and Wrinkled String Beans. Crispy Shrimp with Honey Walnuts is also really good. They offer a wide variety from stir-fries and noodle dishes to seafood, pork, beef, and vegetarian/vegan-friendly options. The kitchen is very accommodating. If you want milder spice, less oil, or custom tweaks, they seem pretty open to it. Because it's not one of those fancy places, the vibe stays relaxed and unpretentious, which I personally like. It's nice for families, friends, or a simple meal out without fuss. I also like to order take-out. :)
