Stopped by Lingnan Chinese Restaurant and WOW—this spot is incredible! 🤩 Ordered the Sesame Chicken 🐔🍯 and Shrimp Fried Rice 🍤🍚, and it was absolutely delicious. Unlike some Chinese places, the food wasn’t greasy or heavy at all—everything tasted super clean, fresh, and perfectly balanced with flavor. 🌱😋👌🏼
The sesame chicken was crispy, flavorful, and not oily, while the shrimp fried rice was loaded with shrimp and fresh ingredients—seasoned just right without being overdone. 🍤🌿
Also, the restaurant itself was spotlessly clean 🧹✨, reflecting the pride and care the owners put into their establishment. Speaking of the owners, they’re incredibly nice and genuinely welcoming. Very friendly feeling when I ordered 😊🤗🏡
Honestly, whoever says the food here isn’t good must be used to halfway-sloppy, no-effort Chinese places and clearly doesn’t know what fresh, clean, quality Chinese cooking tastes like. 🤷🏻♂️😂
Hands-down my new favorite Chinese spot in Emmaus! If you haven’t tried Lingnan yet, you’re definitely missing out. 🚨🍽️💯

Favorite place in Emmaus for Chinese food, super nice family run business. Always clean and friendly. I love the general tso’s chicken with there pork fried rice and bbq spare ribs. If you’re looking for fast , convenient, and easy dinners Ling Nan is the place. You won’t be disappointed! 10/10.

First time here. Takeout only spot. Sweet and sour chicken for kids. Kids immediately said it was sour. And that was just the chicken, no sauce. Adults tried it and ordered a pizza for the kids. General Tso’s chicken was edible, albeit a lot different than what we are used to.

Absolutely the worst Chinese food I’ve ever eaten in my life, bland, no taste, gross softball sized chicken that doesn’t look right. Had to throw it away after sitting there like I cannot believe this. Who makes Chinese food like this? How are they in business? Whoever says this is good is absolutely insane, worst food I’ve ever had. Wouldn’t even give it to my dog!

The WORST Chinese food I’ve ever had in my entire life!!!! First of all the only combos they have only come with pork fried rice and if you want something different you have to pay extra to change it. Everything came in separate containers which was annoying. The total for literally just general tso chicken, chicken lo mein, sweet and sour chicken, and 2 eggs was $60!!!!!! THE MOST EXPENSIVE Chinese food I’ve ever ordered!!!! I would have gotten Chinese from my local place but unfortunately they were closed for the day. Everything was so bland and nasty!!!! The general tso chicken wasn’t even general tso chicken, I don’t know what it was so hopefully I don’t get sick because it looked super undercooked!!! The noodles were so bland and gross!!! My husband and I didn’t even finish the food and we threw it away because it was so nasty!!!! Never again are we getting food from there!!!! I then called the restaurant to see if I could get a refund and I still had my receipt and I told the lady over the phone all of the problems with the food and she started being very rude to me saying it’s not her problem it’s my problem and she didn’t care at all. Very poor customer service. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!

First visit and ordered General Tso combination, large pork with broccoli and an order of crab Rangoon. Very tasty and fresh. Interesting style of General Tso with cabbage in it- very good. Ingredients were very fresh. Will definitely return.
Just moved to town and BEST CHINESE FOOD IVE HAD IN YEARS!!!!! I don't care what anyone thinks this is WAY BETTER THAN LIN GARDEN!! Everyone should come here for sure!!

Ling Nan has been my favorite Chinese food in the Lehigh Valley for years! Always delicious. Veggies always seem very fresh, and chicken is always juicy and tender. Try their General Tso's Chicken -- they have a unique style that I've not found anywhere else. Take out only.

The place looks old and the prices were a little high(no lunch specials)… but the food was solid and that’s all that really matters to me.
