China Star Chinese Restaurant

Really can't beat the lunch special here for $8 and change these days. This is the perfect working-person's lunch spot. Ready-made (very decent) food with plenty of healthy options, much like you would find at the mall.

Good portion of good food at a good price.

I especially liked the pork fried rice, which tasted clean and fresh, and the bourbon chicken is maybe the best I've ever had. The meat was really, well meaty, like someone just prepared it, a sort of grill-roast style. It was good on its own and impressively tender, but the sauce wasn't drenched on and had a really rich flavor to it.

They also got it delivered really fast despite it being ordered around dinner time.

Best lunch combo around they have awesome lunch deals with pre prepped food in a deli style set up to choose many great options such as general tso chicken orange chicken, my personal favorite black pepper chicken. A great place to hit on your lunch break or just in general!

This place is advertise as a buffet but it's not. You walk in and there is a buffet but you pick your items, they place them in plastic containers and then you can either seat to eat or go with your food. Not a true buffet bar.
The food is okay. Its like what you can get at the mall from one of those side business.

I was hesitant on going here but after seeing so many great reviews i decided to try it. I got the beef & broccoli combo which was sooo good. The beef was so tender and seasoned. The egg roll was great as well. Customer service wasn’t great.

Unassuming but solid Chinese food. You can eat there or do take out. They have lunch and dinner special every day. Food was standard good take out in a generous portion for the price. Hot and sour soup was a little on the spicier side (which I didn't mind) if you don't like spicy.

Awesome food! Located across from my hotel and I knew when I passed by with the full parking lot it would be good! Did not disappoint. I got the Mongolian combo for $10 with egg roll!

I order from this place about 2-3 times a week and always have issues with my order regarding quality and taste. Multiple times I’ve had to go inside the store to order because whoever answers the phone is rude and has hung up in my face a total of 3 times in the last 2 weeks. I ordered Chinese donuts twice from this place and they were burnt both times and when brought up to the manager, they hung up in my face both times. It’s unfortunate this business has treated me this way multiple times and for that I will NEVER go back and I will never recommend this place to anyone at all, in fact if anyone ask about this place, I will let them know exactly what my experience was EVERYTIME.

Gave my food to someone besides my doordasher and the resolution was to show the driver a video of my food being given to someone else. Doordash didn't even refund the full value.
