Lins China - Alvarado

It must be the only buffet in town for it to be the best in Alvarado. Staff is very courteous. Atmosphere is reminiscent of a private home with kids running around. Service is self-serve. You collect your own utensils, condiments, and fortune cookies for take-out. The food lacked flavor as did the sauces. Had Orange Chicken with fried rice and Chicken Lo Mein. It was bland. Like they didn't add any salt. Service: Take out Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

This place is geared more to take-out, food was ok, service was minimal, food served in to-go boxes...had to get our own drinks ear with plastic fork. Fried rice was not very good combo came with egg fried rice never saw first sign of any egg, about half of the rice was not toasty color. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

I have eaten here twice and it is nothing special. They are stingy with the meats; you get mostly rice and veggies and you need a micro scope to see the egg rolls.. Ill stop at Panda rather than paying for expensive rice. Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The Yelp page clearly states that they are OPEN from 10:30 AM to 9:30 PM on Sundays, and the OPEN/CLOSED sign on the door indicates that they are OPEN. However, there is another sign listing their hours that says they are CLOSED on Sundays. As a result, we wasted a trip to Alvarado at 12:30 PM on Sunday to try this restaurant.
