    Ma Po Tofu
    N K.

    Ordered takeout on a Monday night! Udon noodles stir fry with tofu and Ma Po tofu. Quick 15 minute turnaround, food fresh, generous portions and hot... but vegetarians thrive on vegetables. I mean frozen carrots and peas stirred along with mushrooms in the tofu dish.. really? Udon noodles were clean tasting, with a few fresh cut vegetables but were sparsely garnished with token amounts of tofu. Once they figure out how much tofu to add to a portion and be consistent with the veggies in the vegetarian dishes, the food has potential!

    Kamikaze Roll and Mexican Roll
    Brittney W.

    Lin's is one of my favorite neighborhood spots for anything Asian. The staff is so kind, even when you are picking up takeout food. They are very attentive, caring, and be careful, they'll figure out their regulars and what they normally order :) I ordered my regular of the Kamikaze roll and Mexican roll, and it constantly is fresh, filling on flavor, and light enough to feel satisfied. Don't miss out on this location.

    Miso soup it tasted average, it was good

    The service is very good, quick service. However the quality of the servings were pretty good. Moo goo served with vegetables/ rice served on the side It was bland had to add soy sauce to in hanse. The taste. Do not like having to add soy sauce just to get so flavor to my food. Do not like bland food. Don't believe you should have to add any additional condiments, salt, pepper, soy sauce, to your meal. Entree 5 out of 10 I will return to see if this was just a one off.

    I had the beef lo mein, and my husband had a chicken lo mein. We agreed mine was better! Mine had a very flavorful sauce along with whole baby carrots, celery, onion, slices of beef and noodles in a spicy sauce. His was the same, but with chicken. Service was fine, but the music was too loud which made conversation difficult..

    Sunrise Roll- must try!
    Faith K.

    The whole meal was a great experience. We did go in at 3:45 so it was in between the lunch and dinner hour. However we were greeted and seated quickly. Our server checked on us multiple times and the food came out fast. Everything was fresh and delicious. It was hard to choose what to eat but we got the spring roll appetizer, sushi, and pad Thai. I got the sunrise roll and chicken Pad Thai. The roll was giant that I didn't really need the noodles. That will be lunch tomorrow. My husband got 4 rolls and it filled him up. I would definitely recommend going to eat at this restaurant.

    The food was great and the service was also great. It toke a long time to get the food because of all the take out orders. But other than that it was perfect.

    This place has great food. We had Eggrolls, the gyoza to start. Very good. My wife had the Tempura, I had the Reidy River sushi roll. Excellent, a must try, and the Soba noodle soup. So good. The portions are BIG. Our friends that went with us loved it. Everyone had to get a to go box. It's a must try.

    Awesome sushi spot. Was not expecting such a great plate of food stopping at a random place on my drive home. Seriously eat here!!

    Black dragon roll

    Black dragon roll is the absolute best for shrimp tempura lovers. Authentic and fresh tasting sushi similar to what you will find in California. You can't beat these flavors here in SC. And the cute orange bear! Service was good very helpful server.

    California & Philadelphia roll!!!
    Angie U.

    Excellent food, quality & quantity!! The dinner can be costly but you do get your money's worth. Lunch (11-3 Monday-Sat.) is the best bet for your money. And if you have someone to split the bill with both of you can get full, including sushi, filet mignon & fried rice for about $10 a person. I LOVE Lin's!!!! What a great find

    I'm new to the Simpsonville area and was very glad to find this gem just moments from my new doorstep! I'm sure it will become a regular stop for me and my wife when we are in the mood for sushi. When trying a new sushi restaurant, I usually opt for something fairly standard - a regular sushi dinner. You know, the kind where the chef chooses the cuts of nigiri (6-8 pieces) and you typically get a California roll with it. I think this is a really good test of a sushi restaurant. You'll always get a couple of pieces of tuna and a couple of salmon, but the rest of the choices tell a lot about the restaurant. I've had some where it was 3 tuna and 3 salmon and that was your dinner. Others have had a wider variety, but it was clearly fish that the place was trying to get rid of. Not so at Lin's! My regular sushi dinner had 2 tuna, 2 salmon, 1 yellowtail, 1 squid, and 1 red snapper. All seemed very fresh and were super tender and tasty. They also had embellishments, such as a dollop of fish roe on top of one of the pieces and shavings of... lime? possibly?... on another. They topped it off with a carved orange in the shape of a bear (check out the top left corner of the picture I posted) - which I'd never seen before. Clearly, this is a place that cares about the product they are selling and makes an effort to present it in a special way. Oh, and I can't forget to mention the sweet shrimp (amaebi). I always think of this as two dishes for the price of one, because it is typically served as one piece of shrimp nigiri and the deep-fried, stuffed head of the shrimp alongside. So I didn't think too much about a price of $8 for this piece of sushi (two-for-one, after all). To my surprise, however, this order included two pieces of shrimp nigiri and two heads! So, really, four for one. What a deal! Loved my first visit to Lin's and can't wait to introduce my wife to it when she joins me here. Sure to become a regular!

    Volcano roll (bottom left), unagi and Hamachi Kama and spicy tuna hand roll (top), rainbow roll (bottom right)

    I'm very impressed! This is only my third time eating sushi and I ordered outside of my comfort zone and I'm so glad I did. I loved it so much. The sauce on my volcano roll was incredible. My friend, who is more well-versed in sushi, was just as impressed. She said the Unagi is better than most places she's tried. Definitely coming back here next time I'm in SC. Highly recommend

    Finally made it to CHPSTX Asian Eatery on Woodruff Road and it absolutely lived up to the hype…read more Right away the vibe was welcoming -- friendly, outgoing staff and the chef (possibly the owner) was out checking on tables and chatting with guests, which is always a great sign. We came hungry and ordered a spread: sesame chicken, General Tso's chicken, garlic noodles with chicken, and the kung pao Brussels sprouts. The garlic noodles with chicken were a standout surprise -- buttery, fresh-tasting, and nicely balanced without being overly garlicky. The General Tso's had a pleasant sweetness (I personally wouldn't mind a little more heat), and the sesame chicken was spot-on. Both dishes used quality cuts of chicken -- tender and not that tough, chewy takeout texture you sometimes get. But the real star? The kung pao Brussels sprouts. Wow. Perfect char, just the right amount of sauce, and loaded with scallions and peanuts for great texture. This is technically a vegetarian dish, but it's going to be my go-to "order for the table" every time. Easy 5-star experience. Glad I finally went -- already looking forward to the next visit.

    We finally found our new favorite Chinese takeout place! The Honey Chicken, Fried Rice, Spring…read moreRolls, Egg Rolls (with chicken and not pork (yay!)), Singapore Noodles, and Broccoli Chicken were all tasty. Provided in good and sturdy takeout containers. I actually like their plastic cutlery and keep it for my own stash. Friendly service and haven't experienced busyness. Gotta try those tasty Brussels sprouts next time. Happy belly dance! Happy yelping!
