LIN’S ASIAN EXPRESS
520 N. FIRST AVE., EVANSVILLE, IN
After driving by Lin’s numerous times, I finally decided to try it out, and I’m upset that I didn’t go sooner! Since my first experience about two months ago, I have been back weekly because it's just that good. I would also like to mention that this place is carry-out only now as they haven’t opened the seating back up since the pandemic. But they are very diligent in taking orders quickly as you walk in, and they can get the food to you in under 10 minutes.
On the food side, I have tried numerous things on their menu. The one constant for me is their Crab Rangoon. This appetizer is just stunning. They are nice and plump while still having a beautiful golden-fried exterior. I would put these up as one of my favorite Crab Rangoons I’ve ever had in my life. Make these a must when you try them out and enjoy! I have also tried the Chicken Lo Mein, General Tso’s Chicken, and their Sweet and Sour Chicken. All these dishes come with fried rice, cooked to perfection and perfect for soaking up all the sauces that go on the chicken - which is just jaw-dropping. As I mentioned before, I go here quite frequently, and I have yet to be served a dry or chewy piece of chicken. I would also like to note that
their sauces aren’t very spicy; even the General Tso’s dish is light on the heat. So, if you want something to burn your mouth, maybe ask for that specifically.
Last thing: Lin’s also does Hibachi meals that I haven’t tried, but I have no doubt they are just as delicious as the other entrees. So, if the Japanese Hibachi is what sounds better to you, try it out and then let me know what you think because I’m stuck on getting Chinese currently!
