    This is an all you can eat buffet. Its hit and miss on food quality, one visit its ok, the next visit its not. The service is terrible, the atmosphere is unimpressive. Go to First Wok and buy one entree instead, at least you will like the food.

    I was really unimpressed with both the food, service, and decor of this restaurant. It seemed to be a dingy, less clean version of its predecessor; China 8 Buffet. The food was either bland or poorly seasoned, lukewarm, with limited selection. Most of the dishes at the buffet didn't have labels so making your plate was a guessing game. The tables felt unclean and looked old. The floors and walls were no better, and lighting seemed more on a budget cut than with any real mood setting in mind. Our waitress spoke very poor English which made her incredibly difficult to understand, and only visit our table twice. There were very few full tables in the restaurant besides ours, so this was inexcusable. With the recent scare of Chinese restaurants closing due to field heath regulations I'd think those remaining would make an attempt to reassure their customers of quality, though this was not the case with East Star. I won't be going back and I strongly suggest those looking for a good Chinese meal look elsewhere The Lo Mein was notably horrible.

    I strongly recommend avoiding this place (which is now called the East Star Buffet), especially if you don't pay with cash. Otherwise, be prepared to be publicly humiliated and treated like a criminal if their card machine won't process your perfectly fine card. After spending about 10 minutes trying to process my payment, the manager points at my card and loudly proclaims "No money!" multiple times. I told them I would return in about an hour with cash because I had to drive to the north end of town to get my ATM card. The manager had a problem with this and would not let me leave without first writing down my driver's license number and phone number. 40 minutes and $10 in gas later, I returned with cash in hand and a receipt from a gas station on the way showing the card I had tried to pay with does indeed work and "have money" on it. I reiterated with the manager how upset I was with the way they handled this situation and instead of taking responsibly for their actions they blamed the card machine. If anyone running a restaurant is reading this, some advice for dealing with similar situations: 1) Don't humiliate the customer by accusing them of not having any money, because the fact is you DON'T KNOW why the card isn't being approved, it might not be their fault as in my example; 2) Don't treat the customer like a criminal by getting upset and demanding a bunch of personal information. It does you no good - a criminal isn't going to cooperate, they're going to walk out. What it does is alienate all of the customers that can see or hear what is happening; and 3) Don't get defensive or make excuses in response to complaints. Instead, admit there was a problem, apologize, make it right with the customer, and then take corrective action.

    Second time to eat here and we won't be back. The service is weird, constantly throwing the same rag in a bucket and wiping down tables with it, sweeping while eating, one of my personal pet peavs and the overall atmosphere is just gross. The egg rolls and spring rolls were cold. I just don't want to get sick eating here, I don't even want to think what the kitchen might look like. Sorry we won't be back.

    We witnessed one of the cooks wiping his nose on the sleeve of his shirt and then messing with the spoons in the buffet. Also in the woman's restroom one of the gals had urinated all over the seat, I knew it was her because she was coming out when I was going in and both toilets was like that. GROSS. We won't be going back there again.

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
