TING’S RED LANTERN REVIEWS

This is probably my favorite Chinese food place in town. The service was just absolutely awesome from beginning to end. The food is extraordinary. The lunch specials are just the right amount to fill you up. The Crab Rangoon is perfect. I most definite will be going back. Even if it is across town from me, it is well worth it!.

Cedar Rapids— deserves 10 stars, we stopped on a Monday, they were so nice. Service was fantastic, aesthetically welcoming, CLEAN, the food was delicious. We tried the crab Rangoons they were delicious. Price point was reasonable, large enough quantity that we had leftovers! Our server was amazing, our pop never ran dry. We’ve tried other Chinese places in the area, but feel this one is definitely the top pick for us. Hopefully you give them a try and agree they offer great food & service.

I'm from NC and TX new around here 4 months in and this is by far the best Chinese restaurant around Iowa. The people are very nice and super friendly and the food is amazing just how I expected it to be beef fried rice with broccoli 10/10.

PANDA LIN REVIEWS

We had a very good lunch here. Our food was fresh and hot. We were just going through Cedar Rapids and wanted a quick meal. Only a few tables for inside seating, but they did bring our meal to our table. Food was served in to go containers and that was good because we both had enough food to take some home. We would eat there again to try some other dishes.

This, by far, is the best Chinese food I have ever had. The food came out piping hot, it's was fresh the portion size for the price was spot on. Their egg rolls, fried won tons, dumplings, apperziers are the best in town. The main dishes are very filling, and they came out very hot, temperature hot, and simply delicious. The Chinese donuts melt in your mouth, and if you want a great dessert, i encourage you to visit them to encounter this little piece of heaven. The pictures don't give their food any justice. If you don't know what you want for dinner, go to Panda Lin for a great dining experience.

Food was better than anticipated lived around this place for years, disappointed I didn't try it sooner. The mee fun and Dumplings Were very good. I thought the chicken eggroll was a little funny tasting and didn't like them.

EGGROLL HOUSE REVIEWS

Egg Roll House is a no-frills place with good food and friendly staff. They are willing to accommodate special requests for picky eaters and those with dietary restrictions- and that's so appreciated.

One of the best places around. I used to drive for 35 minutes just to get food from here! They have the best shrimp lo mein homeade egg rolls and crab Rangoon.

Fast and friendly, come for a perfect snack or a full meal. The place is clean and well lit, pretty good for a strip mall.
