This used to be my favorite place for Chinese food. Last time we were there, their was a sign on the door stating that sushi was longer being served on the lunch menu. This was one of the reasons I liked this place, because you could have sushi anytime at a reasonable price. We were here on a Sunday for the Sunday brunch. Much to my disappointment, the only sushi they offered were two types of fish, and they looked like they had been scraped from the bottom of the barrel. I have no complaints about the other food selections, but my main reason for eating here is the sushi. We live out of town and we stop here every chance we get. I will give it another try next time we are in LHC, but if it’s not back to the way it was before, we will find another place.

After reading several reviews I decided to try Lins. Buffet. How bad could it really be? Well the answer is worse than you would believe. Upon walking in there were two of the workers of this establishment yelling and talking like they were on a street corner. After paying first for my meal. I know why they have you pay first. I. found a seat which wasn’t hard account there were only about three other groups in the restaurant. I had the orange chicken which was ok fried sheimp and some chow mien which was cold. I also went to get some steamed rice which was in an open serving tray. The rice was hard and dried. Overall the food was very bad. The only saving grace for this place may be the young man cleaning the tables. At least he cared enough to make sure I had a full soda. Which by the way was the best part of the meal.

I originally thought this place was good but it has just gotten worse. Went there Thursday evening and the food in the buffet was dried up, the shrimp tasted like soggy rubber the sweet and sour chicken was like eating an old tire. The ribs tasted like perfume. The deserts were dried up. The egg foo yung was cold. I wouldn’t feed my dog this food. We were two seniors and we got all this for 30 bucks. I was sick all night. It really galls me when I pay this kind of money for garbage. We won’t go back.

Would have given it 4 stars if the place was clean. Food was great. But the entry way was dirty and sitting at our table the little wood shutters were so dusty you could write your name in them. The food area and Buffett tables were clean and they kept them that way. Will definitely go back and just try to ignor the dirt.

First time visiting Lake Havasu and we found Lin’s! We were very happy with the buffet and the service that came along with it. As a family of vegetarians we were very pleased with the Mongolian barbecue they had and neatly labeled food signs. While slightly on the more expensive side($ 14 for adults and $ 5 for kids) It was worth it to us. If ever back in the area we would visit again for sure.

Went here with my husband for brunch on a sunday. Food was below mediocre and they were out of sushi. We had to wait for more to be made. Very few options. Really pricey for what you get. We will not be back.

Omg. Just ate at Lin’s Little China Buffet. The hostess looks like she is tweeking, jerking terribly with open sores all over her face. Three Kids are in the front dinning room running all over playing and screaming. The sushi maker is so loud when he talks he can be heard all over the restaurant. He’s complaining about not getting tipped enough by the customers, and how where he worked before a bad night was 100 in tips and here he is lucky to make a dollar a night. Could not get out of there soon enough. The owner needs to clean house. Employees kids should not be allowed to run freely around the dinning room. The hostess needs to NOT be around food with open sores all over her face and the cooks need to stop complaining about their job and find a new knew one if he is so unhappy.

This is the kindest establishment I have ever been to. I showed up with 4 friends(accidentally) 30 minutes after they closed and as were preparing to leave, the chef comes out to tell us were free to sit and he will make fresh whatever we want from the buffet as well as the sushi bar! On top of that, they also gave us the lunch special prices and were EXTREMELY courteous and always made sure we had what we needed and asked for. Our table was filled with at least 10 different dishes and the chef even gave us a free take away box for our friends that weren’t able to make it! Nicest place, AMAZINGFOOD, extremely courteous and kind staff — DEFINITELY the place to eat in Havasu

Very clean with a wide variety of good food. Servers are attentive. The Mongolian grill makes the price point worth it. One trip to the grill and you’re stuffed. Would recommend.

Really great service and food for the price… you can’t go wrong. 7 of us are discussing all of the dishes we had and what keeps coming up is that everything we tried was good. Besides typical Chinese food, you can create your own Mongolian stir fry, eat delicious sushi(in no way is it «buffet» sushi). Very tasty pastries and delicious ice cream! Definitely recommend eating here.

Went back recently after several months and food has gone downhill. The Mongolian beef was mostly beef with no onions or peppers and very bland. Similarly for Kung Pao chicken. Just chicken no vegetables. No heat. Egg drop soup was ok, hot and sour was bland. Sushi wasn’t very good. Pot stickers weren’t very good(last time they were good). At this rate it will be closed in a few months. I’ve also been to the original Lin’s Little China and was quite happy with the food so they should be able to provide good food.

First impressions: The restaurant was clean and well maintained. The staff greeted me upon arrival and I was seated promptly, even during a busy lunch service. There were several different choices at the buffet and all of the food was fresh. The sushi rolls were also prepared fresh. The server kept our cups full and was quick to take away our used plates. The price was also a fair price.

Lins is your typical Chinese buffet, everything is edible but nothing is real good, it’s a place to fill up after a day of playing for cheap. The servers are nice but not very accommodating. The sushi bar kinda makes me laugh, they use frozen fish so it’s mostly mushy, and the rice they put is on is just rice off the buffet. I know you can’t go to a buffet that has sushi and expect much but I expect they at least try. The entrees are fine but they all kind of blend together into one ball of undistinguishable goop.

Average food. Clean and good service. BUT… Almost everything we put on our dish was cold or Luke warm except the hot soup ! We probably won’t go back…

Very average Chinese buffet. We are huge fans of Lin’s Little China and this was truly a disappointment.
