Reviews
Excellent food. The egg foo Yung was humongous and delicious. The proportions were very generous. It looks like a small hole in wall place but don't let the looks fool you.
Lin Cuisine is a pleasant surprise in the "two stop light town" of Checotah. The food here is exemplary for the area. I had the Szechuan Beef and snagged some of my wife's wontons. The entree was flavored nicely with just a hint of heat (I could've used more heat). The veggies were fresh and julienned beautifully. The fried rice was so so. The inside of the restaurant looks like a quintessential small town Asian restaurant. No frills but functional. It had a giant picture of the Great Wall of China which put me at ease (Never trust a Chinese restaurant that doesn't feature said picture). The server was friendly and responsive. What more could you ask for? Hmm. I know! Since when did fortune cookies get so preachy? We need fortune cookies with fortunes and less life advice. I want to know when I'm winning the Mega Millions, not how to self-reflect on my fragility...I digress. These are not issues for the humble Lin Cuisine to figure out. I'll take this matter up with "big fortune cookie."
This Checotah location is seriously the best Chinese food in a 100 mile radius at least. There's a sister location in Muskogee that is a very close 2nd, but there's something special about the Checotah one. Staff are very nice and helpful. Dining in offers plenty of space, and it's a charming little spot. But the food tops it all. Huge variety. Giant portions for amazing prices. Get the hot and sour soup! It's unlike any other I've had because it's truly spicy and delicious. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
The required cash requirement is accompanied by an ATM, but let's face it- the credit card is today's currency. The staff is efficient. We had a large order and it was nicely wrapped in a sturdy box.
Good food, full belly, and one happy lady. I'll go back. This review needs 85 characters typed, I think I finally made it:)
