Food was good, but the bartender was really frustrating. Every drink I tried to order he told me “don’t get that, it sucks. Only the margarita and frozen mai tai are good”. He also told me he doesn’t even drink so it’s weird he’s so opinionated on drinks he hasn’t tried. He said he’s just a “really honest bartender” but he was such a downer. Kind of set a negative tone for the whole meal. He also talked about how with some regulars he overpours and if people are unfriendly he under pours so when the inventory gets checked he’s always right where he needs to be. Seems unprofessional to me. Lastly, we had ordered a to go meal as well to bring home to family. We planned on ordering another drink while waiting but he brought us the check before even asking if we were done. So we decided not to spend any more. Oh well. We’ll stick to Ling and Louie’s—better food, drinks, and service.

The food is always so good and flavorful! Service is top notch and the ppl are so friendly. One of our favorite restaurants hands down.

Try the hot pot (delicious) and the ginger lime margarita with dole whip too (delightful)

What a let down to come back from travel and find the GM Vito gone! We visited a few times before his arrival and found the whole place to be a mess. Once he got there, we became regulars and things were organized and service was phenomenal. Now we’re back to the mess. What a loss of a great leader in the restaurant and community and an advocate for service and great food. Disappointing at best. Food is good not great, restaurant is hot and disorganized. Without service? It’s not worth the visit,, just get takeout. This may be their goal. What a shame.

The owner is NASTY!!! We complained in a prior review and he sent us a threatening response. Our waitress was mean, and the food was disgusting. Panda is cheaper and they aren’t nearly as rudeeee

I had a really good experience at Ling’s Wok Shop. I was in for a take-out order and while I was there, I had the pleasure of meeting the store manager, Vito. He ensured that everything was perfect. Everyone was really kind and the atmosphere was really welcoming. This is a fantastic family oriented business and best of all my food tasted amazing!

I used to love Lings… I’m not sure who gets rid of their servers and turns a “restaurant” into a Chipotle style counter service togo in Grayhawk… I won’t be back until you have servers to serve your tables in a restaurant in Grayhawk. Good luck!

First of all, the order came with Uber eats didn’t include utensils. I cannot eat it at hotel room. I ordered seafood hot pot with brown rice. At beginning I thought the brown rice was missed. Later I found it was soaked in soup for the entire hour for delivery, gross and yuk. I never had any soup order with rice to dump together into package. The whole dish has 4 shrimps and little bit salmon for $20 with soggy rice, disgusting. I threw the dish away.
What a treasure of a find! While traveling through Scottsdale I found this quaint spot. The food is done to perfection with delicate seasoned sauce keeping the vegetables only slightly crisp. The chicken is tender/ juicy. The staff is friendly & helpful when trying to choose from the menu. My only complaint is that it's 5 hours from my home BUT when I come back to the area, Ling's will be a stop. I had the Buddha's Belly 😍

Did not eat here. Was all excited to finally after a year of living here we were going to try kings wok shop and couldn’t wait!
Negative - you can not make reservations online and in today’s world is a must to be able to do that !
Negative - it is now a QSR style restaurant where you have to order your food and pay upfront and go sit down? Nope we don’t go for this very reason we wanted to sit with our guess and talk and order drinks and have people serve us this is why we go out to dinner but if we have to do the work it is not worth it might as well go to a fast food place.
Not sure how the food is and heard it is good but with this new Quick Serve Restaurant we won’t be there . We are newly retired we are not in a rush to get in and get out we want to spend money on food and drinks and have conversations with friends

In town for the weekend to see some friends and dropped by Ling’s on a Sunday. The Manager Vito and our bartender Shelby took care of us and our kids in spectacular fashion tonight during our reunion dinner with some friends. Alan the Chef of our experience absolutely knocked it out of the park with our meal. First of all, everyone needs to try the edamame and lettuce wraps. Everything from the Kung Pao New York strip to the Orange Chicken and famous Hot Pot were cooked to perfection. The drinks Shelby prepared for us all were out of this world!! Great shots and great vibes were also had in abundance thanks to the crew here. We can’t wait to return as this is one of our new favorite spots in AZ!!
Kid-friendliness: Great kids menus and desert options. Super friendly environment and the owner was great with our kiddos!
