    After being unable to visit Lin's Garden for several years, we were there today for lunch. Lynn looks the same as she did six years ago, the restaurant was busy, but not overwhelmed. The meal was outstanding for both myself and Wife and the service was excellent. Photos attached or taken of the menu April 29, 2025.

    Finally found this great Chinese Restaurant as in the past, I didn't venture off Route 322 and Route 422. I arrived from Route 322 and it was real easy to find. The restaurant is open for both take out and dine in. I decided to dine in and went up to the counter to order my lunch from their reasonably priced lunch specials. My wonton soup was not that salty and the wontons were fresh. I chose Chicken with Cashews for my entree. It was delicious and full of chicken, cashews, and vegetables. My total was $6.10, which included tax. The restaurant had previously served complimentary hot tea, per a small sign to the left of the counter, but I didn't see any tea around and asked. I was told it wasn't available. I decided not to order sugary soda or bottled water. I waited until I left to get some water.

    Very good casual Chinese restaurant! We came during the week for the lunch special and got the last table at the restaurant. Many people came for takeout but there are a decent amount of tables that could accommodate four people. It was busy because the food is great and also a really good deal. The lunch special allows you to choose your main dish, white rice or pork fried rice, and an appetizer. I got wonton soup but they also offered other soups like egg drop soup. Or you can get an egg roll. The most expensive lunch special was well under $7 The food tasted very good for Americanized Chinese food. It also came out very fresh which made it even better. Staff was very friendly. After we ordered our food came out without much of a wait. Overall a great lunch deal that tastes great!

    Shrimp with Broccoli, chicken lo mein, beef with mushrooms.

    I only go to Lin Garden only because the food is great. I see no reason to go anywhere else if you're wanting Chinese.

    Dinner for my party of three which is characteristically occurring either at 4:00 pm or 5:00 pm…read more(pending all three's physical presence together) we dined here on Independence Day 2026. Surprisingly Yi Pin is open and fully operational on a major federal holiday. The air conditioning is rather weak during our dining experience as I felt warm during the Northeast heat wave oppressive humidity continuous week. Condiments issued at the table were aged dark vinegar, green tea but not Matcha was complimentary served. My party only use aged dark vinegar as a condiment for dumplings. We have a predilection for mellow, malty sweetness of dark vinegar rather than the high salt content in soy sauce. Customer service is attentive and staff is fluent in Mandarin and English. Yi Pin is a Chinese restaurant that serves regional cuisine of Shanghainese and Szechuan province. It is what my party of three refer non-Cantonese, Guangdong province 外省人 ngoi6 saang2 jan4 (noun) outside province; foreign person. Ergo, staff does not speak Cantonese - neither rudimentary level. Price is extortionate high, but expected in 2026 stagflation era. I was able to obtain the sales receipt as keepsake. Asian melon hard candy is distributed with the bill upon meal completion which is industry standard for Asian restaurants and cafes. At the bottom of the sales receipt there is a suggested gratuity in intervals of 18%, 20% and 22% where customers do not have to perform math calculation. There is one large beautiful Japanese beckoning cat, (maneki-neko) which adjacent to the cash register. Business cards are available for grabs. There is a customer parking lot available. Beef noodle soup $15.95 The soup broth bubbles are very visible for the high level of cholesterol and fat content. I believe the cook or kitchen staff used and implemented MSG. This was a big setback leading to disappointment for my three Yelp stars. La mian wheat based noodles were embedded and sufficient. I enjoyed the La mian wheat noodles. Lo Mein chicken $12.95 It was stirred fried and abundant for excessive quantity. I did not consume any - neither one bite. It seemingly appeared very high grease and fat content for excessive oil. Shanghainese soup dumplings 6 pieces, $10.95 Pork steam soup dumplings siu2 lung4 baau1, 小籠包 tasted average, but not exuberant great to awaken my soul for sprightly liveliness. There were very minimal soup liquid inside the dumpling upon biting. I did ponder with hope and wonder during our wait for our food order arrival that these soup dumplings would be bursting with excessive soup liquid and flavor. It was not served piping hot as I am accustomed in NYC Shanghainese restaurant industry standards. These dumplings prepared by the cook(s) or kitchen staff at Yi Pin are egregiously appalling and insult to New York Chinese. I refused to apologize for being a native New Yorker. The dumpling skin tip where placing the serving tongs also tasted hard. Also another reason for my three Yelp stars.

    I've been here 3 times now and most recently with my parents! This place has not disappointed me…read moreeach time I've come. It was pretty busy on Saturday when we went for dinner but we didn't have to wait too long and our food actually came out pretty fast. The service was as expected because it looked like 1 guy was serving all tables and he was literally running between table to table. I don't blame him for any waiting because he was busting his butt and we didn't really need to wait too long. We ordered a variety of dishes coming here but my favorite has to be the Homestyle Tofu or the Fish Filet. I would like to try more dishes next time. They give you quite a good amount of food for the price. Some places charge the same and give you much less. This place has authentic Chinese food with some common favorites that many of us also know (chicken with broccoli, lo mein, general tso's etc.) so there is something for everyone. There are vegetarian dishes available as well. If you're in the area and would like more savory, authentic Chinese food I recommend coming here!

    BEST CHINESE FOOD around! We ordered the Mapo Tofu (our favorite dish!), Beef Lo Mein, kung pao…read morechicken with fried rice & wonton soup (lunch special), and a scallion pancake (all pictured). We also ordered vegetable dumplings, dumplings in chili oil, and soup dumplings which are not pictured. The service was very good despite a slight language barrier. Our order was correct, our waitress did her best to explain some of the ingredients, our food came out quickly, and our waters were refilled. The amount of food we ordered was plenty for a group of four. The portions are generous and the prices reasonable. The restaurant was clean and well lit with a steady arrival of customers but we didn't have to wait for seating at lunch time on a Friday. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area in the mood for delicious Chinese food and flavors. We will be back again.

    I was a weekly regular. I drive 30 mins to support this gem of a restaurant…read more Each month I went, I noticed small changes here and there. Shrinkflation right? After three consecutive strikes in a row, I decided to give these guys a break. I Even went as far as going to the Lancaster location in hopes of a better experience. (Lancaster is not as good in my opinion) I need to drop a star because the last 3 times I came here the service was very bad. 1 of the times it wasn't even busy. People who came well after my party of 4 was seated, already had their tea, and dishes served before we were even offered water. It was my daughter's birthday lunch too, which soured the whole experience. Another time, my order was messed up and I was told that I made the mistake (even though I ordered that item nearly every week since the place opened). Dishes are hit or miss with translation. It depends on the server. There is one lady that has a huge language barrier. When it's busy, she is very careless, I believe she is part of the ownership. I do understand how overwhelming it is when they are busy, hence only 1star is being removed. I don't want to be upset over a small business owners attempt to keep everything orderly while there was clear chaos and under staffing. Overall I am only dropping it one star because their food is still filling a vast need for authentic style Chinese in our area and there are no competitors. The food has still been a good experience depending on who's in the kitchen and what day it is. I will return once the weather is warmer (I hate the seating set up because if you are by the entrance, you freeze each time the door opens) I will see if service improves.
