China Star

I recently ordered takeout from China Star for a family dinner. Upon picking up the food, we noticed that several of the sides we had selected were not in the bag. So, midway home, we turned around and returned to the store. I brought the bag of food back in, and explained that the sides we had selected (and paid extra for) were not included in the order. The representative at the front desk explained that the reason they were left out was that we didn't order dinner specials. I then took out my phone and showed her the receipt, clearly showing D6 and D22 off the dinner menu. She then seemed to talk in a circle for a minute, but ultimately said that we would not be getting the included sides. Upon opening the bag and starting to eat, we noticed some serious quality issues with the food, with the foremost issue being the lack of meat. For example, a more appropriate name for the "Mongolian Beef" would be "Mongolian Onions with a morsel of beef". The dish was at least 90% onions with 3 very small pieces of meat in it. Another dish, Beef and Broccoli, was about 90% Broccoli and less than 10% meat - unacceptable in both cases at a price tag of $15 each. Ultimately, I would highly recommend avoiding China Star. With the omission of key sides that we ordered, the quality issues surrounding the dinner entrees, the dishonesty of the staff just to save a few dollars, and the high price tag, everyone would be better off eating almost anywhere else.

Worst experience ever beyond worst, it was the worst veg fried rice EVER !!! Not only the greasest but the veggies were horrid and that yellow nasty rice was the worst ever !!! And I've been around the world at least 10 times and 90 % were Chinese, this is the number one worst Chinese restaurant I've ever seen period !!! Number 2. The last thing I ordered was beef szechuan, no veggies like maybe 2 or 3 each and maybe 3 just a couple slices of beef mabe the sauce sucked beyond gross is a understatement, Horrible Horrible, it was even worse than the veg fried rice that ya would think that that's a no brainer but some how they sure know how to make something even worse from one dish to the next Wowwww..... P.S. this is my first ever post on a review that people starting reviews on the internet just saying Please be aware of this nightmare restaurant in Mankato, Mn

The food I ordered came in a decent enough time! The first thing I noticed after I opened the bag was that there was no silverware or plates for my wife and I. Did I mention that it was delivered to our motel room? I called and ask about silverware and was told that they don’t put silverware in delivery orders, only lunch special orders at lunch time??? When I told her that I didn’t have any way to eat the wanton soup or the rest for that matter, and I suggested that putting silverware in a motel delivery order would be a good idea the girl on the phone told me that that would make too much work for her! Also when I told her that I would post a review with her words she said that that was fine she didn’t care! So I just said goodbye.

I've tried China Star a few times, and each time I am not impressed. The food is either under or over cooked. When asked for 'hot' and was given just more fried onions in my Generals Chicken. Not spicy or seasoned at all. If you are looking for quality Chinese food... avoid this place. It's not worth it.
