I have been here for lunch a few times and it is always good. Not very expensive and you get a decent amount of food. The staff has always been polite to me. read more

so I had to taste for crab Rangoon, so I ordered it the minute I took the first I it was made with not the artificial crab meat. They normally use it immediately. My throat to seize up because it's fresh fish instead of crab Rangoon I will be bill this is completely unacceptable. You cannot substitute crab raccoon for fish raccoon. I didn't order fish for a purpose. In a reason completely disheartening, and will never order from here again beware if you and make sure you check what you you attempt to eat it. read more

China Star - Fish Rangoon, not crab Rangoon - Chinese Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Not bussin, definitely up for discussion! First time and last time ever ordering from that tasteless place. The Lo mein was tasteless and just dark like they only used soy sauce and barely no vegetables just old transparent onions everywhere . The half fried chicken was either refried or cooked in old oil as it was also super dark and just salty. Worst Chinese food I've had in broward thus far. read more

I have ordered 3 times for delivery & absolutely fabulous. I love this place & can't say enough. Run, don't walk & order takeout.

The running joke about moving from up north to Florida is never finding decent Chinese food. After a 5 year hunt, I'd say this spot is best, most consistent Chinese food place we've tried in South Florida. They have all the classic Chinese food staples as well as options catering to most dietary restrictions. I try to eat plant based- all veggie options (fried rice, lo mein) came FULL of vegetables. I can't speak on the service, cleanliness, or ambiance as I used a third party delivery service, however it was super quick and they accommodated additional notes I added to the order. (I.e. "extra spicy" "extra sauce") This food cured my hangover without feeling lethargic or slipping into the post-Chinese food coma after eating. If you're having a craving for Chinese food, this will certainly satisfy. read more

BEST CHINESE FOOD IV EVER HAD! Chinese food- I love it. My husband isn't I to it at all- UNTIL last night. I ordered food and I got what I wanted , delicious Chinese food. When our food arrived ( BTW, ALWAYS ON TIME AND HOT)... we were amazed at how beautifully packaged it was and how GOOD the food was! This place NEVER disappoints! The spare ribs are SO GOOD! The mixed soup has the perfect blend. The gourmet dieters menu is SHRIMP- tastic! The shrimp are HUGE! This is our favorite place and if you order from here I'm SURE itlll be yours too!!! read more

Standard Chinese takeout. Thought it was odd that they basically have the inside closed with a table at the door and all transactions are completed while you're outside. The sweet and sour chicken, general tsos chicken and garlic chicken were all excellent. I was craving some good standard Chinese and this hit the spot. read more

We found dead larvae in our Vegetable Fried Rice. When we called the restaurant no one seem surprised after I told them we ate some of the food they asked soooooo what do you want to do?! With a don't care attitude. They said they'll refund me after verification even though showed the driver the picture of the larvae and explained where the anus was and the mouth. It's already upsetting and ABSOLUTELY disgusting that this was in our food but that restaurant is an abomination for their response to this. No apology no anything just will give you your money back NEVER EAT FROM HERE as much as I use to like this place save yourself from having food that's being severed in an environment that grows these parasites. No one in the staff including management was supportive, nor apologize. They were very cautious as to what they said, so they said, literally almost nothing, except that they wanted to verify how much we ate and then will refund everything else. The driver challenged the picture until I zoomed in and explain where the anus was and the mouth was for this larvae that was in my food. I explain what's to inspect when I literally show you the food that you just brought with dead parasites in there again I'm flabbergasted by the response and them not even attempting to apologize, empathize, or even think about how to make things right. I would highly encourage the world never to eat from this location in Fort Lauderdale inside or ever ordering and if you're on fear factor, please inspect the food unless it's a warm eating challenge. No one had a schooled reaction from this which the scary part. read more

Just called the location on Davie Blvd. Horrible! The man who answered the phone was rude and abrupt! I even mentioned to him that he was not nice! I said I would call somewhere else! read more

I've been a patron since they opened and previously left good reviews about the quality of their food. This is strictly about their decision to use noticeably smaller containers for their combination dinners. They have raised prices considerably in the last few years which I get but now with those increases you get less soup and dinner which is unacceptable to me. If you need to raise prices again so be it but don't give me less hats scandalous and I won't be ordering another and stick to quarts and see if they are. read more

Eaten to go here 3 times. Love it, not the greatest not the worst, always consistent and tasty. Prices are great.

Best shrimp with lobster sauce I've ever had!! Can't wait to go back to Fort Lauderdale so I can eat there again!!

I tried them based on the DoorDash reviews, but we bet disappointed. The lo mein was dry, the fried rice was tasteless, and the dumplings looked like they were on steroids! Won't be ordering from here again. read more

China Star - Dumplings?! Why are they so big?? - Chinese Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Great for take out and delivery, horrible to dine in. I've ordered twice from here. Once was delivery, my second time was to eat in because my mom was hungry and it was her choice to actually go and sit down even though I knew this restaurant is better for delivery. It's a small hole in the wall located on 27 and Davie Blvd in a shopping center. Only has 3 tables to sit in. When we went, the owner was training an employee and kind of was not paying attention to the rest of the staff that was providing less than good service. First off, the rice had a huge flea/tick looking bug on it (I should've taken a pic) I immediately returned it to the manager training the girl. He took it from my hand and quickly gave me another cartoon of rice. Umm it would've been nice to get an apology or maybe a comp rice or just more of an acknowledgment. Then they forgot knives and the drinks we asked them for multiple times. I had to get up off my seat 4 annoying times. Honestly was not in the mood to complain so I just went with the flow but seriously people?! Food is basic Chinese food. Tastes good, portions are good but nothing to boast about. Prices are average for Chinese. Nothing more to say, you get the point. Parking is free and located in shopping plaza. Will eat again here, only delivery when in desperate mood for Chinese. read more

China Star - Chinese Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Maps doesn't take you to the location. It's in a shopping plaza nearby but they did ask if I knew where the place was when I called so they are aware of it. I placed an order over the phone to pick-up and they said 15 min. I was craving typical fast food Chinese like orange chicken and lo mein. Food was good and ready in enough time. Lots of food for cheap. I've been looking for a decent Chinese take out in Fort Lauderdale and I think this one has been the best one so far. read more

The only good thing I have to say about this place is that they eventually found my food at the wrong address they left it at and brought it to me ice cold. This is after I had to drive to the place and demand a refund from the owner (after he hung up on me when I called lol, looks like I'm not the only one they do that to) which he refused to give me. I was like, yo, I paid you $70 and I don't have my food. He insisted I got my food. Lo and behold it was at some other house, which they only admitted to after the driver tried to show me a picture as proof. I was like, uh... not my house, dude. Long story short, save yourself the hassle and horrible customer service and skip this disaster of a restaurant. I don't like to leave bad reviews but they treat perfectly good customers like garbage and the food ain't great either. read more

Orange chicken sucked. Was rubbery and gross. Egg roll sucked. Rice was okay. Prices are decent but, you definitely get what you pay for. read more

China Star - Orange chicken, vegetable fried rice & an egg roll. - Chinese Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

great dinner platters and crab rangoons, I delivered for DoorDash and discovered this place through some orders I accepted. Highly recommend

The food has been better lately. More fresh..i order stir fry chicken or honey garlic chicken both very good. The spring rolls taste fresh and crispy the wonton soup is very good. Service always good.. prepared and ready ontime..take out only so didnt ratw ambiance.. read more

I can appreciate a crunchy and juicy order of honey chicken fried just right and bathed in sticky finger licking sauce making a mess in all the right ways. Some people like the Lo Mein alongside their meat but I'm a Vegetable Fried Rice kinda girl. Of course, I added an egg roll that I devoured instantaneously upon retrieval. Mixing the dick sauce with the soy and dipping in with pure glory made this fried tube of Asian glory a total hit for me. I had a bite of the Orange Chicken and liked their zesty sauce oozing with citrus flavor and glazed appeal. No one ever really finishes a Chinese meal without a fortune cookie and luckily my message was useful today. There's something so pleasingly comforting about Chinese food and I'm happy to see this place can deliver a solid meal portioned just right for a great price. read more

My neighborhood Chinese spot. I always get general tso's chicken and love it! This time I wanted to try something different and went for the salt and pepper shrimp. It was unbelievably good! The breading was light but still very crispy. Comes with a brown sauce but I liked it plain. Also like how fast they have the food ready when I place an order to pick up. read more

I came in after a flight, asked what they recommend. Ordered the chicken and broccoli. The sauce on the chicken and broccoli was delicious, but the chicken is..off. I do not believe that this is real chicken, or if it is chicken, there's something incredibly wrong with it. I texture is honestly repulsive and I can't eat the meat. I started pulling the meat apart, and now I'm certain it's not chicken. The color to the "meat" is clear. I realize the picture does not capture the transparency of the meat. Disappointed, and disgusted. Something is seriously off about this "meat" read more

I was told by a visiting friend that he was taking me to dine in an upscale Mandarin restaurant. I wasn't really looking at where we were going, but lo, we arrived a a really strange looking take away with four small tables and no waitron. I didn't think it was a very funny joke, however, I held my temper and went to the ordering counter where I had my first problem and that was their inability to understand me. Ho hummm, they got the order all wrong and delivered it to the table in a sack for take away. I tried to make them understand that we were dining at table and would require some utensils, plates, napkins etc. Finally the thinnest paper plate with miniature plastic utensils arrived. (Whilst waiting two big fat cockroaches ran by the table and that gave me the chills as I'm nervous about bugs in restaurants.) I told my friend that I wasn't going to eat the food and that I wanted to get the flock out. He fussed so I tried the won ton soup which had no flavour at all. On to the rather heavy egg roll that was extremely crunchy as if it had been picked up at the Wholesale Chinese Warehouse too many days ago. It was full of something orange and again had no flavour. The main event was something called Peppersteak and onions served with fried rice. Again, not one thing in this concoction had a whit of taste. I could only nibble at these things as they were so dreadful. To top all of this mess off; this dump doesn't serve hot tea of any sort. I urge you to stay away as my friend informed me that the help is rude. Wonderful night of bugs, rudeness and disgusting food. read more

China Star - Chinese Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Consistent local Chinese take-out/Delivery, it's ok, nothing to rave about, regular menu, inexpensive and fast. You can tell a lot of a restaurant by it's soup, if they are bland or bad it's normally a good indicator of what lies ahead for your meal. I have to say the China Star's Wonton Soup is very good, great balanced flavor in the broth, and delicious, fresh wonton noodles, again the classic, I prefer my wonton soup with bok choy in it, unfortunately that's not the norm for these small inexpensive spots. China Star is good for a neighborhood spot, but don't go out of your way. read more

The day after Hurricane Irma passed, China Star was running their kitchen, gas only, no lights. It was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen, given the 100+ degree temp inside. The food was great, cheap & the hustle alone made me a customer for life. read more

China Star is not a bad restaurant but not a great one either. It is exactly what you what you expect from a take out only shopping center restaurant. The General Tao chicken was good as was the wok ton soup. I guess that makes this a good review. read more

I usually like this place but I was disappointed tonight. General Tso's is on the menu twice. Once under Special Dishes with Pork fried rice included... $7.25. It's also listed under Chef's Specialties and says "served over steamed broccoli" for $9.95. Pork fried rice is an additional $2.50. I ordered the Chef's Special thinking I was going to get a decent portion of broccoli. $15.14 with the rice fee, tip, and tax. When I got the dish home I was disappointed that there were only 3 or 4 pieces of broccoli. I called and asked them what was up with the broc? They said both dishes only come with a couple pieces for decoration. The price difference has to do with portion size. I explained what the website menu says, and the lady said its only a few pieces of broccoli. They offered no remedy or apology of any kind. read more

This is the worst place i have ever had to deal with ask for a large got a small the manager was a horrible berson charged a 15 dollar delivery fee then tool an additional 7.15 for a tip avoid this place food horrible i was so mad i couldent eat avoid at all costs 60 dollars for a small pork and brocolli a quart of house rice and some crapy shirmp and scallops if i had 4 arms i give this place 4 thumbs down read more

Good foods my fav is the shrimp vegestables, soup, good service

This is the first time that I order from this place and I can tell that is the best Chinese food that I have tried in FloridaExcellent service and good flavor! read more

Second time getting carry out here. Process much easier ordering in person than over the phone. Chose different lunch special. Food is good not great but again it is enough for two meals. Better value than other Chinese carry out closer to federal highway/a1a. Mediocre Chinese food at a value price. General Tso chicken in mostly breading. Sauce is basically ketchup. Request for spicy gets you a packet of hot sauce. There is enough for 2 meals for $8 just like Checkers. Majority of the customers are ordering chicken wing specials with fried rice. NOT a place to visit after dark unless CCW. read more

Wow! I am seriously impressed with their service. I come to Fort Lauderdale often for work and tonight I was really hungry and extremely lazy at the same time. My hotel suggested China Star and I am so glad they did. I ordered online and called right after I got my confirmation e-mail just to make sure they received my order. And they did. The lady that answered the phone was really nice. Told me that it would take 30-40 minutes. And told me to have a nice night. Welp! 30-40 minutes later, I get a knock on my door. And it's my food! It came piping hot and it was absolutely delicious. So glad I ordered food. And I have leftovers because the portions were a great size. I ordered the string beans with chicken. It came with fried rice. I got the house fried rice, which costs a little extra. And also it comes with soup. I got wonton soup. Absolutely delicious. Simple and warming. And an egg roll. Crunchy and tasty. Thanks for the great service! read more

I've ordered delivery from China Star a few times. The food is never consistently good or bad; sometimes it's solid, sometimes it's awful (see: broccoli with garlic sauce that was literally a to-go container filled with garlic sauce, with steamed broccoli thrown in. SO much sauce, and it wasn't even good. Ended up throwing it away). I don't expect a place like this to be amazing. I expect that it will fulfill my cravings for greasy spoon "would you like pork fried rice with that?" Chinese food cravings, which is usually does. I had read in earlier reviews about issues with delivery, which I have never had before. For some reason the order I've placed this evening has taken over one hour to get here. I guess their deliveries spike up around the evenings/weekends?! I'm not saying I won't order from here again, but I definitely won't get dinner from this place again. Over an hour for a delivery that is approximately 2.5 miles away is a bit ridiculous. read more

There aren't a lot of delivery options in this neighborhood, so I took a chance with China Star. I love their online ordering. It's a big menu but it was easy to navigate. It didn't immediately recalculate pricing correctly when I deleted items, but it corrects it when you add another item. I wanted to hit the $30 threshold for the free General Tso Chicken. Food was delivered hot in about 30 minutes. Steamed Dumplings were huge and too doughy. I loved the vinegar sauce they're served with. No chopsticks were included. That should be standard. Special Lo Mein was decent. Lots of noodles but lacked flavor, veggies and meats. General Tso Chicken was good but when you click the link for the free order, you don't get to choose spice level. I like mine spicy! Szechuan Chicken was pretty good. Egg drop soup was standard. I didn't try the Special Fried Rice we ordered. I was too full. Overall, not a bad choice for when I'm too lazy to pick up take out. read more
