Awesome food here! The woman that owns this place is a great cook and she’s very professional. She’s kind to my kid and she gives her cookies!!! Very fresh dinner prepared each time I’ve been here.

This place used to be amazing. A lifelong staple up until the last few years. Went a long time without eating because it went downhill, but decided to try it again today.

The quality of ingredients is obviously subpar, and the cook and flavor of the food is bad. They charge a little more than some other places, but wouldn’t pay highly affordable pricing for this.

Chicken tasted old and frankly under cooked. Egg drop soup was meh, crackers were weird. Sweet and sour sauce tasted pretty bad and flavor was dominated by green pepper. Rice was very dry.

Unfortunately, our families comments after dinner was “well it’s been awhile, and now we know.”

They have true well cooked authentic Chinese cuisine. Unfortunately it's carry out only with the inside of the restaurant is beautiful. Call first because everyone and Joe's cousin goes here for carry out.
Once you order one for you'll be back.

I just left from up there and the older Chinese lady that speak very fast got mad @ me because I was talking fast.
She asked me to slow down and I told her usually wen people speak fast the can listen fast also.
Extra green oinons=$2.50×2
Extra shrimp=$7.00
I'm NEVER going back!
Then she thought her telling me the green onions are organic, idgaf what they are and who asked u to buy organic? Everybody don't like or eat organic!

The previous Gim Ling owners were delightful, and the food used to be awesome, but that was decades ago already now… *sigh…*?

The current owners and staff need to stop cutting corners and penny pinching and change back to the old recipes. Egg Rolls are not egg rolls when they don’t have any beans sprouts in them—they are just plain fried cabbage rolls. I paid for extra water chestnuts in my vegetable fried rice dish, and got ZERO. There were tiny bits of veggies here and there. The LoMein noodles tasted like spaghetti to me. The almond chicken tastes like fake, over-processed pressed chicken now—Like a spongey texture. The steamed broccoli was mushy. The chicken gravy used to a clear golden brown, and now it takes like a very thick dark salty pork gravy with a very thick consistency. Don’t expect any fortune cookies with carry outs—they charge $$ for them, and forget napkins, even if you request a few. The prices are WAY too high!!! We picked up our order, and had to wait a looooong time past the 45 minutes we already waited and were told it would be ready. Found two staples in my rice, and the white rice and dinner rolls were both dried out. I’ve given up after being a customer for 50 years. They tried to fancy it up too much—we’d rather have great food at reasonable prices in a clean restaurant. The dine-in experience is just as bad, and the management will say that you’re wrong and do nothing to make it right for you.

Parking: Watch it, or you’ll get hit.

Rude, nasty (attitude) and terrible!!!! Very disrespectful when we enquired about an unsatisfactory order. When we said we would not come back, the hostess replied “Ok.” This place will not get another cent from me or anyone that I know!!!!!
