Lin's Gourmet — Restaurant in Jersey City

I usually never post reviews, but I had to share this unfortunate experience with the public. Owner and Delivery man are dishonest, rude, and unprofessional. I ordered food and had it delivered to my home, I asked for a change of 100 dollar bill. The delivery man came with a terrible attitude and became angry when he saw that I had 100 dollar bill. He gave me change and was rushing me as it was 12 Degrees outside. I felt rushed and trusted he gave me the correct change, when I came inside I realized he shorted me 20 dollars. When I called the restaurant the lady began yelling and argued that he gave the correct change and there was nothing she can do. I told her I'm 100 percent sure he has my 20. She hung up and began to answer and hang up when I would call. I called delivery man same treatment. I was yelled at, hung up on etc. I ended up going to the restaurant to resolve this situation because at this point I didn't even want the food, lady began yelling once more. I decided to contact police. With police present ,They agreed to return the money that the food cost, but kept 20 dollars. My order was 11 dollars and they kept 20. I paid 20 dollars for terrible Chinese food, Never again!!!!...

I finally learned my lesson with this place. I don't eat Chinese food often but when my co-workers want to grab something together, we take a walk to this place. Twice I've been ripped off. My co-workers and I went at 1pm for lunch. I ordered the boneless spare ribs lunch special. She asked if I wanted the combo, I said yes. The menu said the combo is $9.95. The staff said my total is $11.68. I was confused by the high price. After I paid, I examined the menu being confused why it was high, and what was the difference between lunch special and combo if both come with fried rice and egg roll. She couldn't give me a clear answer other than the lunch special ends at 3:30pm. Ok but it's 1pm. Then said combo is bigger and soda is NOT included. You have to pick between egg roll or soda. But my meal is the same size as my co-workers who also ordered from the lunch menu. So I'm guessing we all paid for the combo instead of lunch special. After I left, I saw on the receipt I was charged $10.95 instead of $9.95 for the "combo". My co-workers also found that they were overcharged when they looked at their receipts. They lost my...

When I picked up my food from Lin’s Gourmet, I was hopeful for a nice meal that fit my dietary needs. Unfortunately, I was let down. I ordered a mixed vegetable platter and asked for brown rice instead of white rice to stick to my diet.

What I got was far from enjoyable. The vegetables were just celery and broccoli, which didn’t taste good to me. The fried rice was even worse—it looked and tasted like plain steamed rice with almost no flavor, and there were only two peas in it.

Frustrated, I decided to go back to the restaurant and ask for a remake. But when I did, the staff just poked at my food with a plastic fork ( they really did that) trying to find vegetables that weren’t there. Their explanation for the lack of ingredients didn’t help at all.HORRIBLE!!!

Seeing that this was going NO WHERE, I wrapped up the food and threw it in the restaurant’s garbage. I wished them a good day, but I knew I would NEVER return. If you want good, flavorful food, I suggest you look elsewhere. But if you’re okay with mediocre dishes that have no taste, Lin’s Gourmet might be the...
