China Star, Houston TX

Came here around 12 for lunch they have a big variety of foods. Even my son who is a picky eater was able to find something he liked. Everything was fresh and hot. They also have a good selection of desserts as well.

I don't recommend this place. Horrible food, my kids don't eat, we still pay for them, my husband and I like just the rice and wings. The bathrooms are horrible super dirty and all rusty. We spend $60

It is a very practical buffet since it is cheap, approximately 20 dollars per person and it has a great variety of Chinese food, starters and salads, fruits, rice, pasta, various desserts.

The buffet was scarce with very little variety. I had to ask what certain items were because they were unrecognizable. Price is low on comparison but not worth even what you pay. Definitely would not recommend.

The food was ok. They did not have many options. The sautéed shrimp was small and most of the popular options take a while to come out. The thing that shocked me the most was that they charge for children under 3. If you have a BABY, THEY WILL CHARGE YOU. So don’t bring the babies unless they eat.

Me an the family went after camp.food wasn't the best this day some items I could tell was left over it wasn't fresh. I had to get up twice for a refill on my drinks a napkins.they have some kid machines for little toys an candy but really can't give too much change for them.but there in the front to entice the little kiddos to want to get some things.but after the kids went for changed twice they were told no more change so they were sad after that.

In town visiting and decided to give them a try on a Saturday night. I figured the food would be hot and fresh with the number of people eating there, the buffet would be replenished frequently however that was not the case.

The food was cold, old and not very flavorful at all. The General Taos chicken was very disappointing, it was not the big, batter dipped flavorfull sauced dish we expected. The pieces were small, cubed, mushy chicken pieces in a very runny, flavorless sauce. The orange chicken was the same story.

All the food with the exception of the chicken wings were cold, the food is not being held at proper holding temps. The health department should look into this.

The seafood dishes smelled rotten, the meat at the Mongolian grill station was discolored and looked very off.

The Mac and cheese was not Mac and cheese but macaroni noodles in a bright yellow soup.

The stir fried beef with peppers was so salty, i couldn't eat it and I love salt but this was way over the top.

The sodas were flat and the scoop yourself ice cream in random tubs can't possibly be ok with the health department?

The place was a bit dirty and the tables were not very clean.

On the bright side, the service was good as were the chicken wings and spare ribs.

Overall I would definitely not eat here again! Save your money and possibly a case of food poisoning and eat some place else.

If you have a large party 6+ call ahead to see if they will set aside seats for your group. We arrived without calling and after a server checked tables were told that it would be a 15 minute wait. 20 minutes later after they seated a total of 15 people, we were told that it would be a 30 to 45.minute wait. At that time, we left.

Love the service. Love the food for the price. This place is a great way to eat out for cheap especially sushi. I think since they are so popular they have enough turnover and customers to maintain quality and keep what's out fresh. My favorite is their steak.

Very good place where you can eat what you want for the same price and there is a great variety of food and desserts and the service is very good

The carpet smell really bad, like pee
Walls where dirty and some look very old.
Food was bland and not special at all, considering the price.
The server try to charge extra, look twice your recipe.
Definitely not going back.

A nice place with a variety of food, seafood, meat, salads, desserts, broths.everything very tasty. The buffet is clean, good service from the waitresses, the bathrooms are clean, lighting is good. The food is very Yummy, especially the breaded shrimp, the buns, the fried chicken

Good food. Good price wonderful buffet every thing.clean fresh. Larger area with more tables and chairs.

I was there this week, I was going to take my food when I saw 4 flies in the salads and one playing the dishes, I alerted one of the waitresses and she took the trays and not a minute passed and she came again with them to put them out to the public
How disgusting a restaurant that fails to combat this plague is terrible fans on salads or something that does not allow these disgusting flyers and so transmitters of Bacteria to reach
The service is good, that's the only thing.

Guess since it was a week day not much food was being replenished. Food was dried to the pans from I'm assuming being on the warmers for a long time.
