Chin-Thai in Linden

it’s great! i’ve been to germany to visit my uncle and aunt. my uncle took me here and it was awesome! the staff were nice and the food was delicious!!! highly recommended!!!!! 😁😍🤤

I celebrated my birthday here last year and was impressed by the friendliness of the staff. The ambiance was incredibly beautiful, the food was delicious, the buffet had a huge selection, and at the end, there was even a birthday serenade with a delicious dessert. 👌👌👌👌. Highly recommended.

Update 16.12. Die Ente Hong Kong Art erinnert mich an die in China. Recht authentisch und lecker. Stets gut. Auch wenn ich in einer Gruppe mit 20 komme, öffnen die flexibel einen Bereich. Klar, zu Stosszeiten wird es voll, aber ein Zeichen, dass essen gut ist. Wer kein Bock auf Warteschlange hat (ps. Unser Büro ist um die Ecke und wir sind ständig hier, aber schlangen haben wir selten, zuletzt als es Zeugnisse gab) soll einfach von der Karte bestellen.

Good food and service. Parking is available at the Kaufland store across the street. The restrooms and buffet, in particular, need some renovation.

We were there with a larger group, and everything was fine, but the man at the grill really messed up everything we put in the grill. The meat was tough as rubber, and the fish and shrimp were also inedible after the man finished cooking.

Today, we had a delicious meal with 11 people. The service was first-class. The food was plentiful and there was something for every taste. Our "birthday girl" even received a delicious dessert with a sparkler. Another thing worth mentioning is that they are incredibly child-friendly, and this restaurant is also very good for people with disabilities. Unfortunately, we live 260 km away, otherwise it would be one of our favorite restaurants.

Super delicious, large selection of dishes 😋😋😋😋

Great value for money Great food, great selection Love going there

The food and buffets are generally worth 5 stars. One star deducted for the ambiance. You have to like the crowds... Renovations are planned for the end of 2025, so things will definitely improve by then.

The food was very good, the service was very friendly, and the toilets were clean.

There are first and second class guests.

Very good, varied food, always quickly refilled buffet, friendly staff. We would recommend it again and again.

Very tasty again, could have been a bit more light-flooded!

Very delicious food, a huge selection, something for everyone. The service is simply excellent; you're greeted at the entrance and shown to your table. The staff is also very attentive. The ambiance is very nice; we especially loved the koi. We'll definitely be back.

Very nice, clean, delicious. I recommend.

I went there with my family, and the service was terrible. For some unknown reason, they were very unfriendly, which ultimately prevented us from enjoying our meal or our stay. I understand if you're having a bad day, but you shouldn't take your bad mood out on customers, and if you can't do that, then being a waiter is simply not for you. Furthermore, we were served expired cream with our coffee. Overall, it wasn't a great visit, and I wouldn't recommend it.

Great place to go with family and friends.

Very nice waitresses, you are taken to your seat and served straight away and you can go to the buffet The selection is large and varied, from sushi to desserts. Products are fresh and are regularly replenished. They are also suitable for vegetarians, but vegan are less so Everything is there, whether ready to eat or choosing what is then prepared and brought to the place The koi pond is something special; many large and medium-sized koi are popular with the younger guests because they can feed them For this area the prices in the middle segment are around 30 euros per person including a drink But you can also notice the price increases of the products here

Too loud and fries don't belong in Chinese, for example

Everything is fried, typical all you can eat restaurant. For €25 you can eat much tastier somewhere else. Not recommended.

If you order something from the menu, it tastes really good. In the buffet, care must be taken to ensure that the meat does not only consist of cartilage and bones. Furthermore, almost all of the desserts in the buffet are Kaufland's own brand

A basically nice restaurant, with a koi pond and elevations that make it look really good visually. The service was friendly. Unfortunately, the food from the buffet was almost always cold, even when it was refilled. There was enough for vegetarians, but in my opinion it wasn't worth paying the full price for the entire buffet. Personally, I wouldn't go there again, but it was worth the experience, especially because of the fish - even if the tank is unfortunately too small for so many koi.

Even after 100 first visit. Always delicious

Fresh food was available at the buffet throughout the evening and the selection was very large. Having the food from the grill delivered to the table by a robot is a fun change

Everything perfect, nice evening, thank you.

Very large buffet. Great taste. The buffet is always refilled quickly. I think the ice cream is outstanding. The price for the buffet is reasonable. Reservations are mandatory on weekends. If you don't have a reservation, you have to wait a long time until a table becomes available.

We were there for lunch. There is enough choice to eat there. For the price it's ok. If you don't feel like cooking and are unsure what you want to eat, you can always come here. There's not much going on here at lunchtime

Nice, friendly and a plentiful selection at the buffet.

The restaurant is visually appealing, but very loud, which I don't like (I prefer it quieter). This made the atmosphere more stressful than relaxed. The food (buffet) was okay, but for the price of around €25 it could - in my opinion - be of better quality. Most of the fried food consisted of breading, some of it was cold (!) and the sorting of the food could have been a little more structured. It would have been nice if there had been a few more main courses. A menu is only available upon request, which means you have no overview of the prices. That doesn't work at all! There should always be a map, purely for information. The service was friendly. And the serving robot was a small attraction. The restaurant is very family friendly.

Very nice place, delicious food clean and very friendly stuff, good price for eat as you can, there is a robot for delivery to tables

Full marks. It doesn't get much better than this. Very good and nice staff. Please do not write too good reviews, otherwise it will be too busy. ;-)

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly welcome and a wide selection of dishes.

Enjoy your meal Nice staff Delicious buffet and Mongolian cuisine at the evening buffet I've always had some free time spontaneously.

Great buffet food. Your own prepared plates are grilled and served at the table by a robot. Very attentive and friendly staff. I'd love to come back!

Waited over 20 minutes for the table despite a reservation. (At 5 degrees, in front of the door). Food at the buffet was also of better quality. Mussels tasted like chlorine, shrimps were hard to peel. Fried foods often have more breading than anything else. Biggest drawback: Overbooked tables, very loud atmosphere, mass events and crowds. I won't be coming back and will strongly advise my friends against it

Had reserved a table, arrived 10 minutes early and had to wait. After the first panoramic view of the entrance area, it was good that we had reserved 🤣 No more space available. Recommendation: Reservation of a table is essential. Buffet for €25.80 with a huge selection in all directions. Even the fries in the display (she wanted to test them out of curiosity since display fries are never good) were like fries should be. All dishes were labeled. Regular cleaning of the buffet area was a given. Everything I had was hot and tasted great. Although fully booked, the service was quick and friendly. I also take normal pictures, but I would have had to pixelate too much 🙊

The staff is always very friendly. The restaurant is clean and always busy. The food is delicious, but could be warmer.

Huge buffet selection, great koi pool

Rappels full. Fast and good service. There was a long line at the buffet but it went surprisingly quickly.

Everything fresh and delicious, always happy 😊

Huge selection at the buffet. Everyone will find something here. The quality is good, the taste is excellent. A reservation can't hurt on Saturday lunchtime.

I'm looking forward to the next visit.

Pure rip-off! A lot of money and then the taste is no longer what it used to be!!

Huge selection of dishes, always fresh supplies, a nice ambience, and the service leaves nothing to be desired. Gladly again, but the next time we want to go there in the evening, we will reserve in advance. Without a reservation, the restaurant was full to the last chair on Saturday evening, but after waiting 15 minutes we were still able to get in.

They celebrated their birthday. I liked it very much.

Very good selection of food. Friendly staff. Moderate prices.

Large selection, mostly delicious. Service very accommodating. Last time some dishes were almost cold at the buffet. This can still be improved. Still, we're always happy to come back. 👍🏻

Nette Bedienung und sehr gutes Essen. Die lokation ist super. Sorry die Preierhöhung kann ich nicht verstehen .. bei der Mehrwertsteuer Senkung wurde nach kurzer Zeit der Preis erhöht .. von 19.50 auf 21.50 und nun schon wieder.. klar alles wird teurer.aber man verdient nicht mehr…

It's great to eat enough, it also tastes very good 👍, only this time, on Thursday evening, the food in the buffet was cold, even though new dishes had been delivered, always cold. Annoyed me.

Very good restaurant, great service *******

I recently visited family in Linden. I am always looking for new restaurants, hotels, and stores to visit and write reviews that present my personal experience. The restaurant offers a large variety of Asian food. I would not go as far as "Traditional Chinese". The service and atmosphere are average. I spoke to other guests, and many of them come here regularly. Including my parents. I did not try their desserts, but was told that they are delicious. Parking seems to be difficult at times. I focused on vegetables, that were fresh and well cooked. I also enjoyed the sushi. The prices are bit high.

The Chin Thai Restaurant impresses with a well-thought-out buffet concept and offers a wide selection of dishes - from hearty dishes to fresh vegetables, fruit and ice cream. The price for the lunch buffet is €13.50 per person (excluding grilled dishes); However, ordering a drink is mandatory. In the evening the buffet costs €28 per person – without drinks and without coffee – which seems comparatively high.

Good food and good service. The selection and quality of the food is top. Not so cheap anymore. Small negative point: there are only small Diet Coke and Zero bottles. I like to eat at the buffet at lunchtime, but unfortunately it has become too expensive for me in the evening

Buffet is huge and very tasty Unfortunately, everything has the charm of a train station hall when it's overcrowded

We were here on Saturday. Be sure to reserve a table in advance. It was completely full. We opted for the huge buffet. The selection is huge and there is something for everyone. Very good quality and taste. Absolutely ok in terms of price. You should be patient for the long queue at the buffet. Unfortunately, despite having a reservation, we were seated at the table right at the entrance. It was like a train station and because the door was constantly opening, we had endless trains and new guests almost on our laps while we ate... We'd be happy to eat again, but in a different place

Super nice there. The food is great and the staff is very friendly, helpful and competent. Always happy to come by. B.B. Kind regards from Giessen

We were there for dinner today. The food was okay, unfortunately it was pretty full there and the service was okay but somehow you had to constantly go to the side so that things could be refilled or cleaned.

Service and staff very friendly and helpful. Food selection and taste goes like this.

Ate Chinese again today. Chic restaurant and very attentive staff. Huge selection. Gladly again!

We paid extra money for unordered drinks!!!!nor for the baby, who is not even 1 year old and ate almost nothing!!!

A restaurant that satisfies all tastes. It is wonderful

The buffet is also quite decent at lunchtime. Also very well attended. I can only recommend...

The best Asian restaurant! The atmosphere is pleasant, cozy, the attention from the staff is top notch, the food is delicious, the buffet selection is huge!!!! I recommend it to everyone!!!

We always eat a buffet because there is a large selection and it is always replenished The desserts are also very good and our little ones love them

The food was, as always, very tasty. The waitresses are all very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was very full and therefore loud.

The buffet is always stocked, it is clean and well organized. The menus that come with your orders also taste good. I've never had a bad experience there. Great restaurant

Very tasty, just don't sit near the fish tank, the water splashes all the way onto your plate.

Very tasty for Asian cuisine. Due to the size of the restaurant, it can be louder. Service is quick. Conclusion: We'll be back.

We like to go to the buffet there.

The food always tastes very good here. And the service is very friendly.

People 7.20 euros for a bottle of Gerolsteiner, where you get almost 1 box at Rewe and then no drinks menu??? What's wrong with you China people???

My girlfriend and I love going to the Chin Thai Restaurant in Linden, and we are thrilled every time! The buffet is always well stocked and offers a wide selection of delicious dishes. We particularly like that there is variety and always fresh toppings. If something is not quite to our liking, we will immediately ensure that it is adjusted to our liking. The service is always friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, due to its size and number of seats, it is relatively loud in there when it is at full capacity, but that's not a big deal. We can really recommend the Chin Thai Restaurant in Linden and look forward to our visit every time!

+ Table pre-order worked + Food fresh and warm (buffet) + Service attentive + Sanitary facilities - too many guests in a small space - Loud - Upholstery with defects - Parking spaces

Open buffet for two people, two iced teas and one black tea are 63 euros. There is no naughtier one.

I like to eat here with friends. Everything is perfect here. The food is varied, whether at the buffet or "a la cart". Every dish is refilled at lunchtime and in the evening. Here I notice that everyone on staff knows their tasks. The atmosphere is nice, not kitschy or exaggerated. And everyone enjoys watching the impressive Koi carp in their home or the other fish right at the entrance.

As always hot and delicious 😋 plenty of options, and a super great family friendly restaurant.

Today we were there again and enjoyed the lunch buffet. Large selection. Price-performance ratio fits. Sometimes the food at the buffet could be a little warmer. Reservation is recommended.

Food very tasty, good selection also for vegetarians. Service friendly and accommodating.

The food and the buffet were extensive. The service was very courteous, they always checked whether there was enough to drink. Requests were made regularly and cleared very quickly. The cleanliness was excellent – ​​even in the toilets, that has to be mentioned. If you had any questions, for example about the food or drinks, you were helped in a friendly and competent manner. Despite the fact that there was a lot going on that evening, we were able to have a good conversation. It wasn't overly loud, which created a pleasant atmosphere. There was no crowd at the buffet, so you could choose in peace. A completely successful visit!

Very delicious food. Abundant supply. Tolerable price. Excellent atmosphere.

We often eat out here, the food is always delicious and thanks to the buffet format everyone can always find something they like to eat. The play area with television makes longer stays relaxing even with children. My three also love feeding Lois at the end 😊 to be on the safe side you should definitely reserve a table!

Probably the largest selection I've ever seen in a Chinese buffet. And everything is fresh and delicious. Absolutely recommended.

The store was full of dogs shedding all over the open buffet

Buffet delicious and cheap. Friendly and helpful employees

Great Asian restaurant. The food tastes very good and is lovingly prepared. The staff is always friendly. We always enjoy coming here. Today we enjoyed the lovely Christmas buffet. At the end there was a sweet, lovingly designed Christmas surprise!

Something for every taste. Huge selection of starters, main courses and desserts

Delicious food, I've been there several times

Been going there since it opened, the food is great as always

So, I'll rate the buffet Chinese in comparison. He has certainly been the most consistent and ultimately the best around for many years. But if you really want to eat good Chinese or Asian food, then you don't eat bulk, but go to a delicious restaurant where a chef freshly prepares an individual dish. The sushi here is... Ok... No comparison with a good sushi restaurant, the Mongolian part is... Ok, no comparison with a really good chef, and the general dishes are buffet. Kept warm and sauce-heavy. But still the best around and if I'm in the mood for something like that, it's always ok.

We love the food! The buffet is always full and has a large selection! Meat and fish for the grill are amazing

Very good food, large selection

As always, it's a really great experience. Everyone was very friendly and very nice. Food is great. Always my pleasure

Everything great. Today is only Chin-Thai, everyone can afford to visit this restaurant 👍. Our family is happy 😀

Unfortunately the food today wasn't as tasty as usual... The duck was already very dry and in the warming container for far too long. However, the other dishes were, as always, very tasty... The service was again terrific.

Was there with friends. I was there for the first time. Everything was great, I'll come back often

Good food, top service, I can only recommend it + it also tastes better than Millerhouse

Simply a great buffet, great drinks and if it's your birthday and you tell them it gets a little dark at some point and you get fried ice cream with a sparkler and a serenade

You should always reserve a table on Saturdays. Shortens the waiting time. I love the selection of dishes. Always fresh. The service polite and friendly

Clean, large and delicious buffet. Very friendly staff and nice to children.

It would be good if there was a separate grill plate for fish. Pork and fish are grilled on the same plate. This means that the fish is no longer halal for Muslims. But otherwise good value for money. Lots of fish to choose from.
