Anyone who enjoys this place has neither experienced good service or good Chinese food, I would dare say has never experienced good FOOD. The order taker on the phone was a joke. And the delivery girl could barely make change. If she gave me any more ones Id have to find a strip club. The taste and quality of my meal was barely as palatable as a frozen dinner. What they lacked in flavor they made up for in time; deliver was reasonably quick (I suspect because they save time caring for the prep of your food). If you dare to take your chances with this place, I recommend you pause and imagine in your mind exactly the way you envision your meal, scrap that idea, and then be sure to tell the person on the phone in painful detail the closest approximation of what needs to happen to create that imaginary experience.

I should give them one star but I will say delivery was fast. Fried rice is terrible! Hot and sour soup not good at all. General Tsos chicken is so sweet. Not spicy at all. Egg rolls arent very good either. When I called to place my order a child answered. I asked how old he was and he said 9 and then went a got an adult. I have tried them twice now and I would much rather drive to pick up my Chinese food than ever order from here again. :-(

I appreciate the quick delivery and food is always hot and fresh. The General Tsos chicken, and other breaded chicken, left a lot to be desired as there is way more breading than meat. The flavor was good, though I know to ask for it (General Tsos) to be made spicy or it is very sweet if I dont. Crab Rangoon could have more crab and less sweetness. I really like their hot and sour soup.

They dont even know what chow mein is suppose to be. They advertise chow mein with white rice and rice noodles and chow mein fun as rice noodles but with regular chow mein they gave me cabbage slop with wonton strips and no noodles! I looked it up and both are noodle dishes, just different noodles! Its very common knowledge and they wouldnt fix our order or refund us. Wasted money.

The food lacked flavor and the General Tsos chicken was too sweet and didnt have much flavor range. I was super excited about the crab Rangoon but it was sweet and not anything like crab Rangoon Ive had before. I thought it was really gross. This place is OK but Ive honestly had better Chinese when I lived in Arizona of all places.

I had delivery during bad storms. It was quick, food was hot & good. I had crab rangoon, plain fried chicken wings & chicken cried rice. The food was great! This was my 3rd time for delivery. All has been good. I will use them & recommend them.

The food tastes great and the staff is always polite. Quick delivery. I have never had a problem with service or with food quality. Prices can be a little high but worth it. Excellent chinese restaurant.

They are good. My only problem is they have a little 8 year old that answers the phone... The kid screws my order up literally EVERY TIME. I speak slow and repeat everything i say.

China Star has been our "go to" on lazy evenings for the last three years- we love them! The food is always fast, delicious, and fresh- not to mention extremely abundant. Yummy!

On days when the wife lets me cook, I can whip up "China Star" in 30 mins. or less. Food consistently good and reasonably priced. Delivery is always on time. I recommend it.

Theyre ok for a Chinese restraunt, but definitely not my favorite. Every time Ive been here or ordered here, their food has tasted stale or old to me.
