“9.6.24
Drive through only. I appreciate that. This is probably the best Chinese food I've ever had. The orange chicken is top notch. The chicken is good quality, no gristle pieces that usually come in Chinese food. The rice is so flavorful, it's even a yellowish color like it's cooked in something. My new favorite spot.“

“Totally worth the drive from Smithville!! Best Pepper Steak EVER!! And the ChoCho Chicken, MMMMMMMM!!!!!!“

“The first place my granddaughter wants to eat when she visits. Always top tier customer service. The food is always hot and made to order and cooked correctly. We have eaten here multiple times and never had bad food or bad service. We call ahead and pick up, dine in is not available. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.“

“This place is no longer a sit down eat in restaurant. I don't mind since we stop on the way home from work and don't eat until later since we usually stop in between 3:30-5 and live 25 minutes south. We have quite a few chores to do before we can actually sit down to eat but when we do, our food is usually still pretty hot and is always tasty.
My husband gets the General Tso All Day Combo and I usually get the Sweet and Sour Chicken. He likes it Hot so we request more spice on his already spicy General Tso dish and he's always happy with what he gets.“

“Super big portions, me and my mom were starving and neither of us finished our food. Great deal for the price and the employees were great considering the card machine was broken. We loved it and are defintely coming back for the big portions, great peices for the amount of food, and amazing service“

“This is a reliable place for tasty take out Chinese food. The Crab Rangoon had more filling than most places and was very good as well as their Egg Drop Soup. The pork fried rice was very good as well. The beef and broccoli did not get rave reviews from the family...one said Hy-Vee's Chinese beef and broccoli tastes the same.“

“What do I love this Chinese restaurant?. Their food is the best Chinese I have tried in Kansas City, I just try a new one shrimps Pa Thai all you have to do is squeeze de lemon juice all over the food and mixed alone with the crunchy peanuts and enjoy it. We have tried around 10 o more items from the menu and we liked all of them.“

“I wish they would thank their customers and not just our nice corporations But i do enjoy eating all the great food“

“Nice service and plenty of food. The food is awesome too!“

“we love the pad Thai!“

“Great quick and tasty Chinese food with excellent lunch specials. I usually call ahead and place my order and they will get it done in 15 minutes. They have a variety of food options you can choose. It is very convenient and you may also dine in, but it is a small place.“

“Food is great! Service is mediocre at best, almost makes you not want to order from there. Never a friendly smile when picking up food, spent over $80 and the owner tried to charge me for extra sweet and sour sauce while giving me one small cup for 5 meals.“

“Wow. Today was our first visit to China Star and we will most definitely be back. The egg drop soup was delicious, as were the egg rolls, and my shrimp lo mein was flavored nicely and the shrimp was done perfectly. Everything tasted so fresh.“

“I love this place!! We usually order lunch, but we stopped for dinner on this day. The food is always freshly cooked! The service is always great and the staff is super friendly! My go to is their Mongolian beef! It never disappoints! I also love their spring rolls!“

“Great prices. Amazing prices. Average to good food. Every once in awhile you will have to deal with a weird inconvenience like someone is buying an artificial Christmas tree out back and that delays things ten minutes or three is a delivery truck literally blocking in every single car in the parking lot. Otherwise it's probably the best priced Chinese food in Independence.“

“My favorite Kansas City Chinese restaurant since 2009! Excellent service, delicious food every time, wonderful people. We try to come here as often as we can when we’re in town. KC friends- if you’ve never been, go! 😌“

“They make the best Kung Pao Chicken. It is always good with just the right amount of spice.“

“This is one of our favorite Chinese restaurants! The dine-in experience is always fresh and hot, with generous portions at excellent prices. The service is top-notch, and the scallops are impressive—large and perfectly cooked, not the small ones you find elsewhere. Highly recommend!“

“Wow! We have eaten here many times and been very delighted with the food. Today however was a different story. This is the first time we have ever ordered on a Sunday. Maybe the lower quality was because they were trying to use up food because they are closed tomorrow? We ordered general's chicken chicken lo mein and egg rolls. The egg rolls were obviously reheated in the microwave and so chewy that we could not even invite them. The chicken lo mein was awful. I guess the low main part was okay but the chicken tasted like chicken that had been in someone's refrigerator for three or four days and been reheated. Although the general's chicken the chicken was good, you could not even bite through the onions and the broccoli was hard as a rock. Because we have had good prior experiences I will try to order here again but maybe not on a sunday?“

“First time there. Ordered pork lomein, it was decent, full of flavor and the fact it had broccoli was a plus. My only thing was it was the tenderloin style pork, and I prefer the regular sliced/strip meat. The portion size was very good, enough for at least 2 or 3 meals. Next time I will try the fried rice.“

“Walked in to grab a take-out order for lunch. Had a good experience. I ordered fried shrimp, spring rolls, and crab rangoon. It took 10 minutes, very quick service, which was perfect because I had to get back to work. The spring rolls came with 4, 6 crab rangoon, and 8 pieces of fried shrimp, which by the way, happens to be awesome with sweet and sour sauce!

Everything was fresh, nicely packaged, and the young lady gave me 6 fortune cookies……I didn’t have to ask more; that was dope, I almost always want more than one.

Overall experience 5 stars, whenever I’m in the mood for Chinese cuisine and I’m in the area, I will definitely visit here.“

“Food and service was amazing for what me and my wife got they were also willing to give her a different dish she forgot to tell them she didn't want vegetables with no arguing they were quick to change music was loud hard to hear over it and also the setting was nice

Parking: Getting a parking space is easy backing out and driving to the street is a little more difficult when parking lot is full“

“Hands down the BEST Crab Rangoon you'll find anywhere!! Not bland at all!! And the fried rice is amazing! They actually give you extra broccoli if you ask! Sorry but everywhere else we've tried I've never received the extra broccoli when I ask! You won't regret ordering or eating in from here!“

“I’ve been eating at this restaurant for as long as I can remember and the food is phenomenal. The staff are kind and polite. I have many fond memories of meals with my family here at this place when I was a child and now I have shared this place with my own family and they are hooked, too.“

“I loved this spot years ago when I worked downtown. Decided to revisit recently due to craving good Chinese food. They did not disappoint. Still hands down the best seasoned rice that I have had in KC. Workers are eager to please. I love it here, I like my rice extra spicy with extra onion. 🔥 Inside pretty small but they have take out and delivery. Keep this place alive, a great little hidden gem!“

“Always great!“

“I’m very picky about where I eat and I can honestly say this place is so yummy and now my favorite Chinese food spot! The orange chicken is to die for , the lo mein is so delicious and not mushy nice flavoring, and the crab rangoons are the best I have had in years. They have a sweet and savory taste to them, very tasty.“

“I can’t say I have ever had a bad experience at Mr. Le’s. I honestly never liked any other sushi or pho from another place. Love the atmosphere and always feel so welcome walking in But ever since they have had new ownership I’ve been disappointed. Hours have been cut and now they stop orders 30min before close?“

“Food- the food they have is chinese and probably the best tasting chinese i’ve had.
Service- service was great checked up on multiple times and very kind
Atmosphere- Very clean and open alp the chairs/seats are in well condition as well as the light shades which look great!
Julie was great!“

“I had the kung pao chicken and my husband had chicken lo mein and both were really delicious! Delivery was very fast and courteous

Vegetarian options: My kung pai chicken had lots of veggies you could get without the chicken“

“I had an amazing experience at the Panda Express in Shoal Creek, Liberty. Vale and the entire team were incredibly attentive, asking thoughtful questions to ensure I got exactly what I wanted. The portions of the family size meals were very generous—perfect for sharing!

What stood out the most was seeing the team making everything fresh, which I truly appreciated. It added to the quality of the food and the overall experience.

Thank you, Vale and team, for going above and beyond to make my visit exceptional! I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“I don't know how this place has a 2.4 rating. 4 of us went in. Got 2 orders on sesame, a order of general tsao and garlic chicken. Everything was freshly made really quick. Hot and fresh with insane flavors. The garlic chicken fell apart as I was eating it was so tender“

“The meal and service. You guy’s rock. 🙌🏾‼️“

“This is my favorite panda express in Kansas City. I'll even drive a little out of my way to visit. The food is always hot and fresh. The portion sizes are big and the staff are super friendly and professional. The manager is very kind. The atmosphere here is very inviting.“

“Amazing food, your choice of a fresh and delicious buffet; or choose your raw ingrediants and have the hibachi chef work his magic cooking your food and put on a great show; or choose from an interesting selection of sushi made fresh as you order and delivered to your table. Your hosts will make you feel like family, friendly and happy.“
