China Star

New to the area we tried China Star today for lunch. The food is excellent, the people are friendly, and the prices are a great value. This place will be our steady go-to for Chinese food in Dunedin/North Clearwater. Thanks!

Decided to try Chinese food in my area. Google recommended China Star. This place got two hundred plus reviews so I decided to check it out. The staff person was not friendly and her attitude was unwelcoming. I ordered General Tso. The vegetables fried rice was good. Now most of the reviews mentioned the portion and quality of food was bad. Here is what I found. General Tso did have lots of batter and less chicken quality. However, it did taste good. The egg roll was too oily and it did not taste good. I also ordered Spare Ribs and it was good and the portion was decent. I also ordered Jumbo shrimp these were good. China Star is located in a great location with many stores all around it. Lots of parking spaces. However, inside the restaurant had no A/C. They did have four ceiling fans blowing hot air. Therefore, expect to sweat like a pig! The restaurant is not well maintained With no access to restrooms. Expect to pay $15 plus per meals and this is without tax and drinks not included. Over all I rate this place a 3 star! Would I ever come back here? No!!! Tip for China Star, be more welcoming and friendly, remember we are all customers and can make you lots of money! Update the restaurant, provide A/C remember it’s Florida no one likes to sweat while eating hot food!!! Provide more tables and clean them up after a person eats in. Lastly it’s a restaurant so by nature people often use restrooms before and after they eat.

The prices and the portions are fairly average for Chinese takeout. sadly these are the smallest dumplings I've ever seen, they're almost like mini dumplings and don't look anything at all like the picture they have on their menu. The dumpling sauce is very spicy unfortunately I don't eat spicy food. The fried rice is very bland and very starchy it has nothing mixed in it. The vegetable lo mein was okay but nothing great. The beef with mixed vegetables was edible. This was my first time here and I will not be back.

Ordered the fried rice and boneless pork spare ribs (char siu). Food was very fresh. Skip the egg rolls, was nothing identifiable inside them. Added menu as they do not have a website.

The food is excellent. If you haven't been there yet, you need to go. Lots of choices. I usually get beef with garlic sauce.
