Hate to say I won't be returning after years of going. Place has great food but they felt the need to call the owner/manager over to tell me they refuse to box my rice and chicken separately ever again (as pictured) because it's "too much work". I don't like my rice being completely soaked in sauce and I think it's a pretty reasonable request but it's apparently too much to accommodate.

First question I asked was if the hot and sour soup had any meat in it. She said no. Drove 30 miles home and it most definitely had pork in it. Lots of pork…. It did look good pouring it down the drain though.

Well... I do realize food changes throughout the country. With that said the food was not what I was hoping for. I've lived in many states but the won ton soup was VERY blah. Only won ton and broth with strips of meat in it... no veggies in it and the won ton was very thick with little meat inside the dumpling. The other dish was chicken chow mein and it looked nothing like what I've seen and had before and did not taste very good. On the plus side, my kid really likes his chicken lo mein dish so that's a plus.I'm not saying the food isn't good and shouldn't served but, I am saying it leaves something to be desired... as if they know they are skimping the consumer but the majority of consumers here don't realize it. Like taking advantage of the public not knowing what they should be getting versus what they are getting.

Usually I love this place for Chinese but lately it has gone downhill. I got my noodles and they were dry and smell like they’ve been on the burner for too damn long. It’s my usual order but it doesn’t taste the same nor look the same. Will not be ordering from here again.

Me and some coworkers ordered from here tonight and the chicken had a very foul body order like smell; we ordered orange chicken. Normally I would say China star is a good place to eat but wow I'm sad they would even allow this out the door. China star is better than this, they have a reputation for being one of the best places to order Chinese food in Mankato but this is unacceptable.

OK..today I took my family to China star.. to be honest I've never had a problem with the food..but this time it was the worst food I've had from them since I started getting food from them .. China star is the only place I go to get Chinese food...none of the food was done I spent over $40 every time I go ...not only that the lady had a bad attitude..an was rude...I'll never go there again..so to anyone that wants to go there check ur food before u leave...or don't go

We come here every week and it’s just as good every time, the Szechuan chicken is sooooo good (pretty spicy so watch out) and the ladies there have always been super nice and accommodating. I’ve messed up my order before and they still went out of their way to accommodate me, don’t listen to the bad reviews- they don’t deserve it. (:
