on Citysearch Aug 07, 2008<b>In Short<br></b>Colorfully painted and situated in convenient metro areas, Leeann Chin restaurants are always easy to spot. While some locations have a few tables for those wanting to dine in, it's mainly a... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 21, 2003I find Leann Chin's to be overpriced for the food you get. There are better chinese restaurants that are cheaper. There is to few choices for one who does not eat pork or beef. (more)

on Citysearch Dec 11, 2002Im not surprised by the popularity of Leann Chin's with the fast food mentality on the rise and the prices are cheap. I am extremely suprised that it made the top 10 Chinese restaurants. Given the ratings are based on... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 09, 2002Leann Chin's food is resonably good. But, to consider this as "real" Chinese food misses the mark. If you like Leann's food, you will find the "real stuff" to be quite odd. (more)

on Citysearch Nov 26, 2002The few times I have gone to a LAC's, service has been more of an afterthought rather than a "customer comes first" as it should be. The portions were decent but overpriced compared to what you normally get at a good... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 24, 2002I almost cried when I saw Leann Chin's take first place on this list. The food has been Americanized so much it isn't even Chinese food anymore. There are places infinitely better for Chinese food. A few places I would... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002the restaurant is fast and clean but certainly not friendly. The food quality has gone down in the last 3 years. They quite offering shrimp toast and their oyster wings are way too salty. I like the cafeteria style... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002What! I hate to say this, but this is white man's Chinese food. (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Like most restaurants in the Twin Cities area, this chain has become too Americanized. It is like comparing the restaurants in NYC's Little Italy to Olive Garden. (more)
bruno111
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Totally mediocre, and vastly overpriced. Are you smoking dope? The food isn't bad, but the best? Are you smoking dope? (more)
lund222
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Mass produced Chinese food! No real choices beyond traditional fare and tastes are just as traditional..... (more)
charlito_1
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Leann Chin consistently serves good food, but it's not authentic Chinese. The times when they've added REAL chinese items, they seem to disappear from the menu quickly, apparently from lack of interest from a... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002you would do better buying frozen and heating it up at home (more)
adebie
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002LEANN CHIN IS THE MOST NASTY CHINESE FOOD IN THE WORLD, BAR NONE! THE ONLY REASON IT KEEPS GETTING RATED THE MOST POPULAR BY PEOPLE IN THE TWIN CITIES IS BECAUSE IT WAS THE ONLY CHINESE FOOD AROUND FOR YEARS. THESE... (more)
winexpert
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002too big to keep the consitency of food quality. Timing is the key to eat at any restaurant with their food on steam tables. If you live around by Apple Valley area. I have a great restaurant to recommend. "Eggroll King"... (more)
stars_wild_fan
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Leeann Chin is not the best when it comes to Chinese food. While their selections do taste good, I have found that their food is nothing special and quite "Americanized". I find that most 'hole in the wall' and small... (more)
donmpark
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Not sure why people even like this restaurant chain. Sauces lack depth of flavor and originality. (more)
Imzadi
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002It is over-hyped, bland and boring food. But what can you expect from mass market fast food? It is the MacDonald's of Chinese. (more)
bac0n
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Leann Chin is to authentic Chinese as Taco Bell is to authentic Mexican. Sure, it's cheap, and there are restaurants in most suburban shopping areas, and most Byerlies as well, but the food is suitable for your... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002If you like food that will not stimulate your tastebuds, Leann Chin is the ultimate restaurant. It's pretty bland, although, on the positive side, there are no real losers, either. Acceptable.... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002LeeannChin can not compare to the superb quality of P.H. Changs. No way.. Have any of you traveled to ?Chjina or Hong Kong or are you basing the assessment on your American McDonald's taste buds??... (more)
lie_bee
on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Leann Chin's is good if you are looking for fast food style chinese. Not the best chinese in Minneapolis. (more)

on Citysearch Oct 25, 2002Oh, please. I've had better dentist visits than eating this food. It's not fresh, which equals soggy and unappealing. I'd recommend Great Mandarin in the Eden Prairie Center. Now that's a Chinese Restaurant, and it... (more)
miss_shell
on Citysearch Oct 21, 2002Come on - Leann Chin's? We're talking about a fast-food buffet with chewy sesame chicken heated under hot lamps. Yes, it is pretty decent food, especially for a quick grab lunch while at work, but number one on the top... (more)
GrannyFrani
on Citysearch Oct 13, 2002Leann Chin Restaurant (in any format - the glamorous multi-course affairs along with the quick eat-in or take out places) used to be my most favorite Chinese Restaurant. NO LONGER . . . Their quality in all... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 11, 2002Kidding, right? The BEST Chinese? No way! Heat lamps and rubber beef make Leann Chin's a place to AVOID. And the prices are terrible too. Hit an authentic Chinese restaurant, don't touch this junk!... (more)
vonybedford
on Citysearch Sep 30, 2002It's greasy, and it's too americanise.... not authentic at all... If I want chinese food I'll go to a better place on eat street or dinky town... What you paid it's not worth it at all... (more)
runewell
on Citysearch Sep 27, 2002It doesn't seem that Chinese to me either; it's only my choice if I want Chinese and there's nothing else nearby. (more)

on Citysearch Aug 22, 2002Here is an analogy for you...LeAnn chin is to Chinese food as Taco Bell is to Mexican food. In other words, FAKE. (more)
JumpingJack
on Citysearch Aug 19, 2002It seems the majority of us are not clued in as to what's Chinese and what's not. Which may explain why Leann Chin is going to win "Best Chinese" this year. Joints like this and PF Chang's and Chino Latino are not Chinese... (more)
ayyo
on Citysearch Aug 14, 2002Anyone that thinks Leann Chin has good Chinese food is completely clueless, tastless, or needs to try some real deal Chinese food. Leann Chin's dishes are not what I would say "Chinese" food. more like a bad... (more)
WildChild
on Citysearch Aug 08, 2002What's chinese about Leann Chin? Either you love it...or you hate it. I hate it. None of the kitchens are consistent...though they all follow the same recipe. It's not worth going to. I'd stick with the mom and pop... (more)
jorn
on Citysearch May 21, 2002No matter how many times I try various Leeann Chin locations, I keep promising myself I won't go back. If the greasy, heat-lamp tortured food where not so overpriced, it would be slightly more tolerable. You are... (more)
