Y’all better stop playing. Run don’t walk! Lin out here bout to have every other Chinese restaurant you have ever been to just give up. Lol! I’m talkin bout they shutting doors and hanging up they aprons! Lins is the ONLY Chinese restaurant you will need for the rest of your life! Impeccable! Look, I don’t even know what I ordered… beef noodle something… I asked for help and the woman taking my order suggested it. The atmosphere was lovely. They had the fam in there, everybody eating at the end of the night. I came in close to closing around 9:15p. Everybody was friendly and the food came out in no time. Plus the prices are great. If I could give more stars I would! THE BEST!!!!! Xiexie Lin! Got me out here leaving comments in AAVE! Lol! This food is so delicious I had to do it justice in a way only AAVE can. I will be going back!

The food has always been great here, and parking is easy too. The owner/cook is actually from Yang Zhou but the store is known for its Sichuan cuisine; you could, however, call the shop a day ahead to arrange for authentic Yang Zhou cuisine, they just need the heads up and get the right ingredients. Other than that, it's a small place with a lot of customers, turn around is fast but be prepared for a queue if you get here around dinner time.
Great little place that can accommodate about 20 people. Food reminds me of mon's home cooking (Taiwanese style). Food is a bit spicy, but delicious.

I've been coming here for a year now and I always get the hot pepper chicken and the 3 item cold dish. Even if you can't handle the spiciness you will come back for more. Also the lady that works there is very sweet and caring. Thank you for the delicious food ❤️.

First time trying out Lin’s Club in Monrovia and it feels like a great place for Sichuan-style home cooking. The restaurant is pretty small and cozy, but the menu has a lot of interesting dishes if you’re into authentic flavors.
We ordered a few things to try: • Spicy fried chicken nuggets – Definitely recommend this one! The chicken was tender, with a nice kick of spice but still very flavorful. • Spicy pig’s ear in chili oil – Pretty authentic taste-wise, though the cuts were a little too thick for my liking. Still enjoyable if you’re into that dish. • Twice pan-fried pork belly – This one wasn’t our favorite. Not much flavor and just didn’t stand out.
What makes the place even better is the owner – super friendly and welcoming, which made the experience felt like dining at a friend’s home.

I was genuinely surprised by how amazing this restaurant is. After trying so many Chinese restaurants in the area and often leaving disappointed, I wasn’t expecting much. But from my very first visit, the food here completely caught me off guard—in the best way possible. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. A friend introduced me to this place, and I can honestly say it’s a new favorite. I’ll definitely be coming back regularly!

One of the best ma la Xiang guo places in the sgv area. Sometimes the food is too salty and the service is not good sometimes. But it’s pretty affordable and it’s spicy and for $20 you get potatoes meat carrots and other stuff that makes it delicious.

Miserable experience. Sat there for 30min and no one took care of us. The sanitation was also concerning.
Ordered multiple dishes for takeout. They all tasted fine, but like many restaurants, they use way too much oil, so the dishes are greasy and unhealthy.

I paid for one item and tipped 15% but still got barely respect, maybe it’s because of just 15 bucks deal, Sometimes the front desk needs to show more respect to customers

I used to like this place a lot. But my recent experience was so bad I have a feeling I will not be ordering from them in a long time.
I ordered the spicy chicken 辣子雞, despite the portion looks big- it’s mostly just breaded crumbs. The pieces are so small that there’s no meat - I feel I paid $13 for nothing.
I also ordered spicy intestine （干鍋肥腸 ）as this is my to go dish from Lin’s club. I noticed they put a lot of other things such as celery and potato as fillers so there was much less intestine in the dish this time.
It’s only been less than two months since my previous order and i’m very surprised how quickly their quality deteriorated.

We order food from here at least once every two weeks. Love the service
