Dumplings
- Lin's Pork & Chive Dumplings$12.49 • 97% (69)Baba Lin makes really mean dumplings and this is one of them. They are a burst of flavor, filled with pork and chives. The wrappers are distinctly southern Chinese-style, thin yet bouncy. Served with a side of house dumpling sauce.
- Pan Fried Cumin Beef Dumplings w. Chili Sauce$14.49 • 94% (50)This beef dumpling recipe is a result of combining my love for cumin and my dad’s secret for making the juicy flavorful beef filling. The onion and cilantro taste subtle but add a nice texture, as well as crispness to balance the earthy cumin seasoning.
- Shrimp Dumplings with Lime Chili Sauce$14.99 • 96% (52)If you like seafood, you'll love this dumpling! The sweetness of the shrimp perfectly complements the tangy lime chili dressing. Topped with garlic crisp and cilantro.

Soups/Noodles
- Sister Lin's Chicken Noodle Soup$17.49 • 93% (77)This soup is named after my other sibling, Lili. It's heartwarming and good for the soul, and so is my little sister. The slow-cooked broth is flavored with various exotic herbs, before adding flat rice noodles, shredded chicken, vegetables and fried shallots.
- Grandma's Peanut Noodles$9.99 • 88% (52)This is one of my childhood favorites/staples. Creamy peanut sauce with layers of both sweet and savory taste makes this the most well-known noodle dish of Fuzhou, China. A visit to my grandparents’ place when I was little, and now my parents', would not be complete without a bowl of hot steamy peanut noodles. I’m excited to share a piece of my childhood with you!
- Dan Dan Noodles$14.49 • 94% (71)This is one of China’s most well-known dishes, understandably! It’s sweet, savory, spicy, and so flavorful. The sauce is made with different ingredients, but most importantly, it includes my dad’s special chili oil recipe. The crispy pork bites and roasted peanuts add extra crunch, not to mention incredible flavors!
- Brother Lin's Beef Noodle Soup (Lanzhou-inspired)$19.49 • 87% (47)My brother, Mike, is my biggest supporter when I decided to open Lin & Daughters so I named this soup in his honor. The broth is made by simmering beef bones in herbs and spices for many hours to extract the beef essence. The braised beef briskets are deliciously saturated with spices and herbs. I find it to be a comforting soup that I enjoy eating year round, but especially during the colder seasons.
Note: this noodle soup is not a faithful recreation of any traditional recipes. It leans toward Lanzhou style but with my own twist. - Mom's Wonton Soup$7.99 • 95% (49)This delicious and comforting soup is one of my mom's many specialities. The filling is made with pork and scallion, simple yet delicious. The wrapper is thinner than usual - a distinct character of Fuzhou style wontons. The light broth will kickstart your taste buds with its savory sourness.
- Daughter's Garlic Butter Udon$14.99This dish is one of my younger daughter's favorites, and it's the only thing, other than pizza, I can count on her to eat. Supposedly invented in San Francisco by a Vietnamese American chef, it beautifully fuses the flavors of the East and West. The combination of butter and garlic is already enticing, but the addition of oyster sauce and other Asian seasonings makes it almost irresistible. Enjoy with bok choy, or add shrimp for extra umami and sweetness.
Sides/Salads
- Wontons in Hot Chili Oil$10.99 • 93% (61)This dish is packed with flavor and umami. The pork wontons are covered with homemade spicy chili oil and drizzled with seasoned soy sauce. This comfort food can be found on the menu of any Sichuan restaurant.
- Cheesy Scallion Pancakes$11.49 • 91% (34)Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, this is a comforting dish with an east meets west twist. I came up with this for my eldest daughter because she loves both cheese and scallion pancakes.
- Spicy Cucumber Salad$9.99 • 91% (36)This salad is one of my favorites! It's a great side dish for when you want something extra but not heavy. The sauce is a nice balance of sweet, savory, and tangy. Pair it with dumplings or noodles; this salad will sure make your meal extra interesting.
- Bok Choy with Oyster Garlic Sauce$13.99 • 100% (17)This dish features a light option of steamed greens with garlic oil and oyster sauce. It’s simple yet delightful. Enjoy as side to any meal!
- Edamame with Chili Salt$8.99 • 85% (7)This is a simple dish of seared edamame sprinkled with seven spice chili salt (very mild). A healthy side dish to go with any entrees.
