The worst 65$ I have ever spent over Instacart w this place. Delivery was over 30min Iate. I mean it was just awful! My kids would not look at the food twice. Over cooked, cold, rice was hard. Crab ragoon was oily and overcooked. Never again. Don’t waste your time or money.

Really good!! I don’t usually like Chinese food, a lot of other places it just doesn’t taste good, but the food here is great

came in to grab some crab rangoon and other stuff. there was hardly anything inside of the crab rangoon or the egg roll that i ordered. i was too far to go back so i called to ask for a refund, they offered for me to come by the next day and pick up some more instead. hoping it was just a one time fluke i went back and accepted their offer for another order. when i got back home it was the same issue as before, no stuffing inside of the wonton. i was just eating wonton. not worth it. wasted a trip after work and about 7 dollars on an egg roll and crab rangoon with nothing inside, ended up just throwing it all away. sad to see all that food go to waste because it was prepared incorrectly.

Loved this place! Everything was tasty, not over cooked the general Taos is addictive, but don’t tell anyone their fresh donuts are good to make sure they got them when we return.

Lings is near a lot of people’s workplace so the Lunch Special Hits!! When you have a 10 dollar bill in your pocket you can’t beat it. I tried their orange chicken and plain fried rice with an egg roll. The chicken was good, heavily breaded. The egg roll was fire, not too oily like some places. But the fried rice was just that fried rice, no egg no scallions no nothing and was somewhat dry. Maybe I’ll try another style of rice from there, bit everything else was good to go.

Person taking order doesn’t understand much English and order comes all mess up. Ask for fried rice gave me brown rice, ask for spare ribs send something else. Definitely food didn’t taste good neither like Chinese food.

Ling express is so nice! The owner is always so appreciative when we come in and he greets us with a bright smile. Always a pleasure and they are one of the only Chinese food restaurants that lets you get a wonton soup with the lunch specials!

They didn’t give me rice with pork. and then they called me that they had forgotten and that it was in the restaurant. but to send them They would charge me again for the rice and the delivery ufff .
they had already collected it I will never eat at that restaurant again . Plus
The chicken broccoli has no flavor. and the sesame (CHICKEN)doesn’t have chicken anywhere…… I paid Uber Eats deliver 20 $$$$ ufff and t fried rice was old eve thing to the. Garbage…

If I could give this place no stars I would. I ordered via the web for delivery. While I take no issue about how quickly our order arrived (less than an hour at lunchtime on a Thursday) I will say the food was a waste of my money. I’m half Asian and I grew up eating rice so it’s a staple in my diet. How you manage to screw up rice I don’t know but it was awfully undercooked and had a plastic taste to it.
We also ordered the Happy Family which literally made me sad and gave me a migraine. I specifically asked for No MSG on my order. The Happy Family was overly salty and the promise of the seafood on it was the allure. Alas the imitation crab log was “off” and had to be spat out. There was no lobster, even though it is listed in the ingredients, and there were only 2 shrimp. I’m not sure what they did to the carrot to make it taste the way that it did but it was so inedible it also had to be spat out.
Kudos to the restaurant for using fresh and not frozen broccoli but it was very “al dente” in the Orange Chicken dish. The breading was a gloppy mess by the time we received it and while I give them props for attempting to include real orange rind in the dish it just made it shockingly bitter and frankly the whole dish was a congealed mess save for the undercooked broccoli.
They did manage to not screw up the fortune cookies 😀 And lastly the pork lo mein was overly salty but more edible than the other dishes we ordered. I won’t ever order from here again. I have tried other Chinese places in Valrico and this one is on the bottom of the list. I know it has glowing reviews and maybe the kitchen was having an off day but my stomach literally hurts after trying to choke down lunch and I have to go lie down and hope my migraine goes so I can get back to work. They might not directly use MSG but their sauce base definitely has it and it has caused a severe reaction. They should be really careful in the future about using any products that have MSG.
And lastly please don’t order extra rice. we are now stuck with a quart of rice we can’t eat because it tastes so bad.

What happened?! This place used to be so good. There is no taste to our food and we dont have covid. This is so sad because i loved this place. Also id really love to know what my mystery dish is in the photo. I ordered Chow Mein which is a fried noodle. Ive no clue what this dish is. There are no noodles in it whatever it is. $80 down the drain. Never ordering again.
