Lin's Grand Buffet opening on Stapley and Baseline

Long-Vacant Building on Baseline Purchased by Lin’s Grand Buffet Owners

A long-standing vacant property on Baseline Road near Cooper, just west of Jason’s Deli, has officially been purchased. The 8,684-square-foot building sold for $3.3 million, marking the end of years of vacancy at this highly visible location.

The new owners are the team behind Lin’s Grand Buffet, a popular Arizona-based buffet chain with multiple locations throughout the state. Known for its wide variety of Asian and American dishes, Lin’s has built a loyal following across the Valley. The closest existing location to the new property is at Ellsworth and Southern, making this acquisition a strategic move to expand their reach in the East Valley.

This purchase is notable not only because of the restaurant’s brand recognition, but also because the building itself has been empty for an extended period of time. The investment signals confidence in the area’s growth and demand for additional dining options.

While official details about the future of the property have not yet been announced, the community can expect that Lin’s presence will bring fresh energy to the site and surrounding businesses.
