Sautéed green beans, tofu and mixed vegetables
Karen Y.

I don't usually get Chinese food when I am not in a major metropolitan area with a significant AAPI population. But I needed vegetables (preferably Chinese style because I'm a little homesick) after a few days of road tripping the Oregon Coast and Lin's Restaurant popped up as one of the two only options. We ordered the tofu and mixed vegetables stir fry and the sautéed green beans. They are DELICIOUS and well portioned for the price. They 100% tasted like the restaurant take out from my old family's Chinese restaurant and I'm super happy we stopped by here! It's a teeny bit greasy but the fresh vegetables hit so hard. If you're craving Asian style veggies just like how your favorite Chinese mom and pop restaurant does it, then this is the place! It's family run, has its own parking lot, and super friendly service. Highly recommend.

Tso combo.

That's what I'm talking about for American Chinese food. I was suspect of the high rating but this is darn good for American Chinese. I got the combo with fried shrimp, bbq pork, general tso, fried rice and crab puffs. The shrimp were a little small and greasy but still good enough and not offensive. Bbq park had good texture and flavor. I hate when they are too dry Fried rice has good texture, not too dry not too mushy. All the requisite items without getting too cute General tso was great. I hate when it has like a metallic taste or it's too acidic. This had the right amount of sweet heat and pungent. The general would be proud. I also liked how the chicken pieces were uniform and tender. Also a fan of the batter ratio and adherence to the chicken. Best tso tso far (see what I did there) I don't get crab puffs. I think they are a white people thing. Tasty. Crispy. Did no harm. The wife liked them. I'll be back.

Wanted to visit a restaurant after visiting the Tillamook factory. Was craving for Asian food and found found great reviews for this Chinese place. Went around 1pm and it was relatively less crowded. Parking was not an issue and the food options are typical and had a long menu. All the food we ordered, Orange chicken, Kung Pao chicken and the fried rices were flavorful and the quantity was also very good. The service here is great and very friendly. If you are around the area and craving for Asian food then definitely give a shot at this place.

King Pao Chicken is very delish. I will get this again.

Service is very good, the ladies are super kind, very fast, and always checking in on you. The place looks like a dump on the outside but surprisingly the restroom was sparkling clean. Inside the restaurant it's clean and fine but not fancy at all. The food though, surprisingly good considering it's in Tillamook, a place knows for constant cow crap smells. Near the Tillamook Creamery so I'll be back for sure.

My partner and I decided to try Lin's while we were visiting Tillamook and we're so happy we stopped in here! Great service, our server was so very quick checking in with us at all the right times. Our food came out extremely fast and we were amazed by the portions for the price. Definitely recommend if you are craving something cozy and comforting!

Combo 14

Stopped here for takeout going through town. Seems like a solid 4.5 star place overall. Really like the combo options, clever idea. I had the combo #14. Nothing was bad, general tso was really good. Also had order of pork lo mein which was also really good, had a nice mix of veggies in it. Friendly staff, seems like a nice dine in area as well. I would recommend if you're looking for some standard Chinese takeout.

Review of food only as we picked up dinner to go. For the price, you get a good amount of food. $55 got three entrees and two containers of steamed rice. It was enough for dinner plus lunch the next day. I will say the food the following day tasted better because I reheated it on the stove which boiled some of the excess water/sauce off and made the chicken a bit crispier. Food quality could be better but it tasted good. It's definitely "Americanized" style Chinese food, lots of salt, lots of sauce. Service was fine and I was greeted well upon arrival. All the food was packaged properly and was ready within 15 minutes of calling. I think upgrading their ability to take orders via an online app would be helpful just to get past language barriers. They have a massive menu which would have been much easier to navigate if they modernized their order taking system.

Hot and sour soup, yummy.  I order this every time.

We've been dining at Lins Restaurant for decades. I love the food of course but the family, well, they're like family. Our children were raised together. I can depend on the food tasting delicious every single time I dime at Lin's Restaurant. I recommend this Chinese American restaurant. Healthy portions so you always get to take home a doggie bag and have the leftovers for breakie. Yay! The ambiance is family friendly so do not take your date here if you mind children bc one can bring their children here and feel right at home. The service is excellent. They know everyone by their phone number! Practically, I swear they know me by my number at least. Now I need to order some food for my dinner. Yum! You can count on Lin's Restaurant

Take out

My old man asked if I'd pick up some Chinese food... I said where do you get Chinese food in Tillamook? Lina he said... portions are large and the flavor is out of sight... so I stopped by line and ordered a C9; chicken and vegetables, fried shrimp, bbq pork, sweet and sour chicken and steamed rice... I swapped steamed white rice with the fried rice on the menu... no problem... $18 dollars..... dad was right it was good.

Pretty average Asian food but that was to be expected. Parking lot was large enough for my camper van.

First and foremost, as we discovered, parking is in the back. Second, the formal diningroom had apparently been closed for years, meaning that that all business is conducted in the bar area, which also has slot machines and pool tables. There is also a very prominent sign saying 21 YEARS OR OLDER ONLY! We confirmed that if you have children, the only option is takeout. This is NOT a family-friendly restaurant! We ordered the egg rolls, orange chicken, and mongolian beef. The egg rolls were nothing to write home about; However, the entrees were both amazing and worth coming back for. The portions were large, and the price was reasonable. Both also came with a side of rice. The only reason I couldn't give this place a fifth star is because the menu lists the price of wine as $6.00/glass, yet we were charged $7.75 each. The remainder of our order was billed correctly. This won't stop me from recommending this place or coming back in the future. Hopefully they are able to reopen the dining room at some point so that we bring our kids.

Because of our most recent experience I'm taking what would have been a solid 4, or 4.5 star down…read moreto a 3. We've visited Beach Wok a few times over the years, and each time we've found it to be fresh and of good quality. However, on our most recent visit, we discovered that half of our dishes were dry and partially inedible. The main issue with our to-go order was the ribs. For my kids, I ordered the BBQ ribs. At least half were too dry and tough to eat without posing a choking risk. For myself, I placed an order for the gluten-free sweet and sour ribs. Mine were at least 3/4 too dry to eat, to the point I was trying to drink water while chewing in order to get the meat soft enough to swallow. It just wasn't worth the risk or pain in my jaw so I ended up throwing away most of the two rib orders. My husband's fish and chips were fine, as well as the cucumber salad, edamame, and a grilled cheese I also ordered for the kids. I was planning on ordering from Beach Wok a second night, but with the prices as high as they are and our bad experience a few nights earlier, I decided against it. I'm undecided if we'll be returning to Beach Wok again. 2026 #1

They have many other items besides Thai food. The YS selected chicken tacos which came with a side salad. The side salad was as big as a lot of salads you have for a meal. My portions on the pad Thai were very big as well. We took these leftovers and had them for dinner also. The service was quick and friendly. They have a small space but they also have covered outdoor seating as well. They were doing a brisk take out business when we were there for lunch on a weekday. All in all a solid meal and then some. I look forward to a return trip in the near future.
