We came on a great night! It was “Tiki Thursday” and the owners, Mr. & Mrs. Foong Lin were there. The staff was all in Hawaiian shirts and had great tropical cocktail options. Besides the attentive and fun staff, the food is phenomenal and reasonably priced. We sat at the bar and had such a great time. They had a fun old movie on, and we couldn’t recommend enough. The hot and sour soup and the Singapore noodles were particularly delicious. This was our first time, but it won’t be our last!

Foo Lin continues to be absolute perfection. Every single time we come here, it’s five stars — no exceptions. This visit, we tried the Hunan flounder special, and wow. The flounder was incredibly fresh — succulent, juicy, and cooked perfectly. The Hunan sauce it came with was bold, flavorful, and absolutely amazing. I’m genuinely excited to post the pictures because we were too busy enjoying the food to do it justice in the moment. As always, the hot and sour soup hits every single time. The spring rolls are amazing, the egg rolls are amazing, and the spicy shrimp dumplings are out of this world. There is not a single miss on the menu. And the service? Truly unmatched. The bartending and hospitality here are exceptional. Ms. Lin and Jenny is also absolutely amazing — warm, attentive, an

I was visiting Bethesda for an event so I stopped in here for a quick bite. Immediately I was struck by the cool interior. The inside is decked out in a tropical theme, and the whole place is lit by cool colors. They also had smooth jazz playing in the background, which was very pleasant to listen to. I provided pictures of their cool bar and a fancy table for examples. They really hit the atmosphere out of the park. I wasn’t super hungry, so I ordered an appetizer. I ordered the crunchy spicy chicken wings for around 10 dollars. They had a really big menu, but most dishes ranged from 14 to 30 dollars. The chicken itself tasted very good and had a nice level of spice. My only problem was how they prepared it. I provided a picture, but all the wings were cut in half with the bone showing

This place might not look like much from the outside, but it’s a total hidden gem, especially if you’re into tiki drinks! They host Tiki Thursdays every week. People dress up, the bar plays old tiki movies, and they even have shirts you can borrow if you want to get in the spirit. Super laid back and festive. The drinks are strong and delicious. You can’t go wrong with the classics like pina colada, mai tai and volcano bowls, and many other options to choose from. We had a blast! Food was solid too. I really enjoyed the Sichuan crispy beef, fried chicken with basil, and pan-fried dumplings. Overall great Chinese bites to go with all the cocktails. Everyone working there is super friendly and fun to chat with. You can tell this place has a lot of regulars and good energy. We’ll definite

★★★★★ 5.0 Gene Crout · Nov 2025

The best Chinese food I have ever had. Mr. Fu and Ms. Ling are amazing hosts and know how to both make the most awesomely delicious food as well as treat their customers like family. Tiki Thursday is a wonderful treat too. Outstanding Navy Grog! Delicious Szechuan Crispy Beef, the best. Amazing Kung Pao beef (you might have to make a special request! :). Fantastic BBQ Pork and 5 Spice Chicken appetizers. I just can say enough. I would go there regularly, but it's a long trip from Denver! The Best!!! I should add, this was not a one off experience. I was actually there in December 2024 and it was amazing. Then I was there again in November 1925, twice in four days! Food was consistent and delicious all three times!
