It was good enough to go back but not good enough that I would go there without trying other buffets. Missing the staple green beans and chicken/broccoli! Service was good. A little pricy for lunch buffet read more

Very overpriced! Website shows one price, but they charge more at the register even when one presents a military ID for the discount! When I questioned the charge, I was told that the price had increased last week! read more

Typical stuff but liked the steamed fish a lot Other non meat alternatives were good too Everything was hot and fresh and supplied quickly If I return I will try to come when kids are at school Way too many jumping around, literally parents let them stand and dance on booth seats Lots of discounts but strict on IDs Just off highway easy access and plenty of free parking read more

70$ for 2 people for a poor selection of food is ridiculous! Never going again , wouldn't recommend going unless it's the last resort. If I could give zero or negative stars I would!! We went after landa park to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday SO DISAPPOINTING!!! read more

So much food your head will spin and so will your wallet. I can honestly say I'm ok with spending if the quality of food and service deems it. Give this buffet a try you wont regret it. Sorry no photos of the food, I was enjoying the various selections of food playing on my phone was not in the cards. read more

If you are really hungry then this place is great for that. The food is okay but lacking in quality which is made up in quantity. I did like the pork ribs, but was not thrilled with the "steak" or the "sushi". I didn't want to risk trying the seafood but it looked good. Check out the videos. The ambiance is much like a cafeteria. I really didn't expect much when this place was suggested as a place for AYCE with a price of $16.99 for dinner! Discount for seniors and military (see tip section). The service is hit and miss. Cashier friendly; steak chef is a bit short if you don't know the procedure for ordering. Personally would not be a must go place to eat while in Texas.. at least not for me. Definitely good for a budget. read more

Lin’s International Buffet - a man standing in front of the counter - Buffets Near Me - Selma, Texas

As usual, this is a pretty solid buffet. Service was good. Food was tasty and fresh. Place was clean. Ambiance is what you would expect from a buffet restaurant. This is a "full service" buffet. Lots of seafood, Chinese food, pho, steaks, brisket, sausage, etc. Pretty big sushi bar. Nice shrimp on ice. read more

Food's good, service is decent, noise is only moderate, and the price is a bit ridiculous at $29 a person w/ drink. All in all, I'll say it's pretty well balanced out if you ask me though.. read more

Dad wanted to have a buffet lunch today so we headed to @linsbuffetsatx in Selma. We were there right when it opened so everything was hot and fresh! Rafael was a great server, making sure we had everything we needed. The only foods we didn't have were the pho and pizza. Check out the video to see their full selection. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8JTCU1S/ read more

Lin’s International Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Selma, Texas

See all

Location: The restaurant is located off the I-35 in Selma. Food: They offered a variety of American Chinese food, Pho (Vietnamese soup), garlic bread, pizza, steak, sushi and desserts. Almost every sushi roll had cream cheese!?! I was hoping for more nigiri and hand rolls. The steak was tough. They had buns and shumai but they were not great. Many of the food items lacked flavor. The best food item was the pho. The broth was good. The second item worth getting is their cooked shrimp. The shrimp is a great size! I did like their large selection of ice creams they offer. Cost: You pay first and then you're seated. They offer a 10% discount on adult buffets for Military. Kid's prices vary depending on their age. Drinks are separate from the cost of the buffet price. Dinner prices are more expensive than lunch. Overall, I would not return. I had higher expectations for this buffet but was extremely disappointed in the price, quality of food and variety of food. read more

This is definitely a 5 Star buffet. I would say the best buffet in San Antonio. They have so many amazing things like sushi and crab legs that it's hard to stop eating honestly. They have all kinds of treats for the kids and it's only 20 bucks per person on the weekends. So much to choose from you definitely have to stop in here at least wants to find out what you're missing if you kind of live in the area or pass through it a few times on I-35. We love to go there every time we go to Costco.... It's just a treat that the whole family enjoys read more

This Asian Buffet was a very pleasant surprise. It had standard Chinese food, sushi, veggies, Texas staples like ribs and brisket, and even had Pho. It was immaculately clean, the food was fresh, and I would definitely eat here again. read more

Great buffet. Very fresh and large selection. Also, It is a real clean restraint and the servers were very attentive!

REALLY GOOD CRAWFISH, DECENT DESSERT AND CHINESE CHICKEN! GREAT SERVICE AS WELL! Okay, this place is a big hit and miss with certain things. The service was really good, from the people who took our money, to the waitress refilling our drinks. A+!!! THE HIT: The chicken, crawfish, SOME dessert, and mushrooms were totally great! I was pretty impressed by some of the items they had to offer! The person making the sushi was really working hard, I could appreciate that. The ice creams were delicious, and really hit the spot. I tried a supreme mix of beef, chicken, and broccoli and dangggg, It was really good! I would come back again just for that. My nephews also really loved their chowmein! My dad got a piece of steak grilled, and it was grilled just perfectly! THE MISS: My nephew got pizza/ garlic bread and Mac and cheese (oh, to be a kid and to eat what you want! LOL) and his food was...awful. The bread was hard as a rock, literally i tapped it on the table and it was hard as a ROCK lol...the Mac and cheese was dry, and pizza was old tasting. My father also said some of his food was hard. So, that kind of sucks. Half of the dressers I had (little cake squares) were hard as well. I mean, it wasn't a deal breaker but kind of sucks, lol. In MY opinion, the price was great, and the pros outweigh the cons for my Very picky family who likes such different things. It was $73.00 for 6 people with drinks. Totally doable! There was something for everyone, and it was totally worth the trip! We will be back again. read more

Found this red string in our sweet & sour sauce . Lost our appetite real quick . Won't be going back ! When we got up & left I showed it too a waitress at the register and she just looked at me like I was bothering her . I tried to hand it too her in a napkin & she told me she didn't want it . What a disgusting place . There could have been nuts & bolts in the sweet & sour sauce & they seriously could care less . That did it for me . read more

Great value for the price, which is what matters most in a Yelp review. Selection of food was good and service was great. We enjoyed our meal and will return for sure! Please tip the servers - they don't get paid much at all as an hourly wage (I've heard only like $2/hour). read more

10 years ago this would've been $30-$40 for two adults and 1 baby. Nope came out to $70. At a $70 price point we could've went to a fancy restaurant instead. I thought we were saving money by eating average buffet food, but nope we spent almost $100 to eat that trash. Don't waste your money especially in this economy. read more

Well, I took the family to Lin's international buffet today after church. We enjoy a good buffet and ever since the Chinese Buffet by our house changed to a seafood buffet (Kumi) we have been looking for a quality place. So, here we are at Lin's. Place is clean, the staff are friendly. The bathroom was clean, floor was a little sticky. Issue here is the food wasn't great. Wasn't a lot of options, and most of the food was dry, and over salted. Definitely not worth the price we paid. I have 4 kids and with my wife it's 6. And in today's economy 100 bucks this was not worth it. Save your coin try something else. read more

Very enjoyable Friday lunch...could only eat 1 plate, however, you're welcome to go as many times as your appetite allows. They honor Military & Senior 10% discounts. Enjoy! read more

Lin’s International Buffet - General Tso's Chicken, Spring Rolls, Wonton...yummy delights. - Buffets Near Me - Selma, Texas

See all

We've heard people talk about this place and say everything from is fantastic to its terrible so we decided to give it a shot. So if I could have given a 3 1/2 star rating I would but I don't have that option. The place is spacious and clean. There were folks bussing tables and bring food out all the time, which was good. The food ranged from very good to just plain bad. I tried the sushi. There were about 15 types - unfortunately nothing was labeled so you just had to guess. Fortunately the ones I guessed at were actually pretty tasty and of course shaved ginger and wasabi always helps. The General Tso's chicken lacked flavor and was obviously sitting for awhile - two bites was it. The lo mein noodles were fresh and good. The spring roll was soggy inside and lacked flavor. The egg roll was fresh, hot, crispy on the outside and flavorful on the inside. The breaded popcorn shrimp were also fresh and prepared well. I like a good onion ring and these looked tasty - a good breading. I grabbed three. I bit into the first one and literally spit it into my napkin. It was cold and soggy. My wife had pepper steak and I had a bite - it was flavorful, hot and pretty good. She also tried the sesame chicken which also was prepared well and tasted good. Her thoughts on the lo mein and General Tso's chicken mirrored mine. The BBQ rib was American style but not bad. Her thoughts on the egg roll were also the same as mine. The teriyaki chicken was dry and not very good. We looked at the items on the back row (pizza, steak, tilapia and a few other items - honestly, they looked like they'd been sitting for quite some time and were not appetizing. We looked at the desserts and nothing really stuck out so we opted for scoops of ice cream - they have 8 different flavors and that was tasty. A negative note - the first bowl I picked up had some type of food in the bowl that didn't get cleaned during washing, but everything else looked clean. Soooo - would I really be wanting to come back? No. Would I come back if someone else really wanted to, yeah, there are things that I could eat. It is what it is - a buffet with all the good and bad that comes with a buffet. read more

This is my favorite Chinese buffet. They have an extensive food variety, but the best part is that the food is fresh, not overcooked, and the flavor is just right for my preference. The only bad thing is that my husband and I eat smaller portions, so we always share one meal. Therefore, it is not cost effective for each of us to pay for a buffet when we can only eat one small portion. Fortunately, they also sell the food by the pound. That's what we'll do next time buy food by the pound. read more

A family favorite! Unbelievable choices of Chinese, American foods, and everything in between. It is a clean and fresh buffet, with great service. We will be back. read more

Saw international and got excited! The real experience was mediocre food. Typical Chinese buffet style and choices. The only exception was Pho yet after a couple of bites, the rest waited to be removed from our table. There was a lot of sushi to choose from yet none of it was fresh. Freshly made but not fresh ingredients. Otherwise, you could enjoy some of the normal Chinese dishes that you find on other buffets. Enjoyed the kid servers that we had. Will not go back if in San Antonio. read more

Food, service, it was all wonderful. Though, there was a lady on staff who was kinda rude and was SPEED walking in and out the kitchen, was locked in on her job, and was kinda careless to the people around her. When she was putting trash cans back, I was scared she was gonna take out a child with her. Other than that, it was great. read more

Absolutely not coming here again. $115 for my family of 6 and didn't even come with drinks. The food was mediocre at best. Server was not good, the chef was rude as hell. Yelled at me because I didn't grab a plate. I was like, I couldn't hear you sir! Jeez. Absolute disgrace of a restaurant. read more

You're asked to tip when you pay at the entrance, fine..I did 15% which after dining there I'd tip 10% if at all because he never refilled our drinks and came around once. The food was lukewarm. I called in the afternoon to ask if they'd have steak or prime rib and was told yes , however the guy at the station was pretending to be busy in a corner & never came to the station to ask if we needed anything. Once we got a good look at the meat we walked away because it looked like it had been sitting out for a while. The baked potatos were just warm but not enought to even melt the butter (which we had to ask the waiter for, the one time the waiter came because I flagged him down for said butter). As I sd, there are better buffets, don't waste your $$ here. read more

Pretty good buffet. Went in for dinner with my best friend and her family. I hear its been open for about a month. Hot food selection is abundant. Desserts and sushi could use a bump up, but it's pretty spot on for the price you pay. I agree with another yelper who said the sushi isn't the greatest, but for a 12.99 buffet, you can't complain. Mackerel nigiri was good and so was the salmon sashimi. My must haves whenever I get sushi. No unagi though, which was disappointing. I didn't get any of the brisket but it looked good. You can also get a steak cooked to order. They also have a build your own pho bar. By the time I finished my 2 rounds, I didn't have room for those. :( I liked the pineapple ice cream as well as the cream puffs! Wish they had green tea ice cream though! Overall, the price is fair for what you get and I would come back for sure! read more

Three of us went to Lin's yesterday (Saturday) at about 1 o'clock. We hadn't been there in a while but we knew that they didn't have snow crab legs or oysters anymore. Even so, it was pretty good with a wide selection of food as usual, but the most noticeable thing to me was the good attitude and service of the staff. Everyone from the girl at the entry desk to the waiter to the people who cleared our plates were very nice to us and seemed to be enjoying their job. It was a very refreshing experience worthy of a restaurant with better clientele. My only negative is that the music in the restaurant didn't seem appropriate for enjoying a nice meal, but I'm sure we'll go back again. read more

I brought a party of six there tonight from out of town. 12/30/22 the food always good. The choices were great. My guest was yelled at and demanded he tip the lady making sushi. By the lady making sushi. How hard is it to make sushi with a automatic sushi roller? It would be different if she worked at Kobe down the street but,she doesn't. My main reason I gave them a 1 star. Is because of the lady making sushi. I have never been in a buffet where you have to tip the lady making sushi. Tip the person at the front desk. Tip the guy who is picking up your plates. Seriously Lins. If you are going expect tips for everything and everyone working there. Raise your prices. My TIP skip Lins. read more

The food was nice and hot, I've only heard about this location. It's beautiful to eye as you walk in, the seats are very comfortable, so you can dine in. The selection of food was tremendous, they had, Chinese food, BBQ ribs, brisket, pizza, grilled/fried fish, and the dumplings were steamed to perfection. The man behind the grill counter was seasoning right in front of me, I really enjoyed watching my food be cooked in front of me. Place is pretty pricy but for the food that comes along with it I believe it's a win win! read more
