A decent Chinese food spot in Almaden! It's family owned and has been around for a while in this shopping center. Sadly, not many businesses thrive in this shopping center, so props to them for staying alive! Parking will never be a problem here. Ordered Orange Chicken with fried rice and beef and broccoli! All of them meals come with a soda. The rice was a little bland, but I still liked it! It tasted like it had been sitting around. The orange chicken was really sweet and drenched with sauce, and the beef and broccoli was okay. The meals are a little pricey as well.

Can always count on Lin Garden to be opened on the holidays. Ordered takeout for New Years dinner and service was quick and convenient. The restaurant's setup is more of a store front, so not many seating indoors. We usually get:- beef chow fun: 5/5 - ratio of beef and been sprouts to chow fun is perfect for my preference, chow fun noodles cooked well so it doesn't stick together- meat combo w/ tofu: 3/5 - nothing too special, a filler item to have variety- walnut shrimp: 4/5 - pretty consistent on the fried batter, plus it's nice that they pack the mayo on the side, however a couple times they forgot to throw in the walnuts- sweet & sour fried chicken: 4/5 - also another item that is good but not as consistent, sometimes the chicken can either be smaller pieces vs bigger pieces, I prefer the bigger pieces because meat is more tender/juicer Pretty safe choice for Chinese food in the Almaden area. However, it can be a bit inconvenient for those that don't live nearby.

Wow, I went to this place tonight for dinner because of the good reviews and it was pure awful - i mean disgusting. I ended up just throwing the food away when I got home, it was that bad. I ordered Lemon Chicken it was not even cooked correctly and then they just give you a bowl of lemon sauce and tell you to put it on yourself. $20 for this? Are you kidding me? honestly, worst meal I've ever had in Almaden. This place needs to be closed down for food safety. There was also NO ONE in there on a Friday night, another bad sign. Zero customers, a ghost town and now I understand why. It was so so gross, my guess is the reviews are fake. AVOID, trust me!

I'm so conflicted about leaving this review because I've read the positive ones and I don't want to destroy anyone's livelihood. On the other hand, I own a restaurant and have taken many food safety classes and am certified so I can't just disregard this. I did consider sharing it with the woman at the front but she was quite snappy and rude to me so I hesitated from doing so. I walked in and ordered a plate, the woman snapped at me when I handed over my card that it was cash only. I told her I didn't have cash so she said Venmo? I didn't particularly want to go that route so I said no. She eventually charged my card but made sure to tell me she wouldn't do it again, even though there are signs saying they take card and Apple Pay. After paying I walk over to the cooler to grab my coke and see bowls of raw chicken just hanging out in the front cooler. There was also a bag of what looked like meatballs thawing too. This is highly dangerous and can get their restaurant shut down. Long story short, be super careful if you have a sensitive stomach or immunodeficiency, this place could land you in trouble.

The good:They were open on Christmas! My family had a hankering for Chinese but our local Chinese spot was closed. I was happy to find Lin Garden on DoorDash. I ordered moo shu chicken with pancakes because of my pregnancy craving and it didn't disappoint. I also got honey walnut prawns and loved that they put the mayonnaise sauce on the side as to not make the shrimp soggy in my food delivery. It was crispy and delicious. There were lots of menu options. The prices were fair. There were lots of vegetarian options. The bad:The mushu chicken was a wee bit too salty for me but I do tend to like food on the bland side. The interesting:Moo shu chicken is a northern Chinese dish. It's like a Chinese burrito.

A neighborhood mom and pop restaurant owned by a local immigrant family (we were told the chef used to cook in a famous Cantonese restaurant in China) that serves delicious traditional Chinese food with very reasonable prices. The portions were large. Every dish we ordered was great. They reminded me of the comfort food you would find in south China, nothing too fancy but really good. The space is pretty small (only 4-5 tables) but is great for takeout. The service was very friendly. We are definitely going back soon.
