Lin’s House Chinese Restaurant used to be on Fort Myers Beach. They closed about 15 months ago and I never learned why. Today, Andy and I were running errands in the Publix shopping center on San Carlos Blvd just past Summerlin Road. It’s there we saw the “Grand Opening” sign for the new Lin’s House Chinese Restaurant.

It appears that they moved into the location formerly occupied by another Chinese restaurant just around the corner from Publix. I questioned the woman who appeared to be the owner of Lin’s. She said that the building they formerly occupied on Estero Blvd, just down the road from our Beach Delight vacation rental, was falling apart. It was too costly to repair. So now they are off the island and just over the border in Fort Myers, a little over 4 miles away.

Their new place only has a few tables for dining in. Although they no longer have a buffet, there are lots of choices and the food is very tasty, colorful and served in generous portions. I had the Shredded Chicken Szechuan Style and Andy had General Tso’s Chicken. Our Lunch Specials were exceptional but we really couldn’t finish our meals in one sitting. To-go containers were a necessity!

Andy and I will definitely be ordering from Lin’s House again. They have a large menu inluding appetizers, soups, house specialties, combination platters and more.
