Good American-Chinese food- I liked both the pork and shrimp eggrolls (pork was my personal fave), and the hot and sour soup. Friendly service. They honored my request for no plastic utensils (I got take out). I'd try more dishes here. read more

China Star in Parkville has "The Best" Moo Goo Giapan in Kansas City. I always order it. Restaurant is clean & everything is cooked fresh. It is a hidden gem. read more

Owners are friendly and the restaurant is clean. I like the chicken with garlic sauce and crispy spring rolls.

Clean kitchen you can watch them cook. I have gotten carry out from here over the years 30+ times. They are totally consistent. Food is always fresh (fresh vegetables) and freshly cooked. This is one of those strip center places that your always wondering is it a hidden gem or not... This one is. read more

Food is always delicious, friendly, and quick service! We love the fried rice, orange chicken, and crab rangoon.

One word: WOW. These guys should change their name to China FIVE Stars. Took a chance on this quant hole in the wall just a few minutes from home, and I'm so thankful I did. Lunch special was just under $10 for a bowl of Roast Pork with Broccoli and Fried Rice, with a side of Egg Drop Soup. Food was out to me in less than five minutes. The pork had a nice tender texture and was cooked to perfection, the broccoli was fresh, the fried rice was a joy, and the SAUCE... my GOD. Pure bliss. Egg drop soup had me a bit skeptical with its uncharacteristically white color, but it too proved absolutely scrumptious, and it also lacked the high saltiness of other Chinese restaurants I've visited in the area. What an absolutely wondrous experience. I can't wait to come back. Thank you, China Star! read more

China Star - Roast pork, broccoli, pork fried rice, egg drop soup - Chinese Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Great Chinese food! My family has been ordering from China Star since they opened which I believe is more than 20 years. They're very nice and friendly. Their food is fresh, flavorful, delicious and consistent; always more than we can eat. It's reasonably priced as well. We'll keep going back and recommend to others. Don't listen to the negative reviews, they don't add up, probably competitor smears. read more

The ambiance is not the best. Very few tables in the restaurant. The service is good. The owners are a husband and wife team. They work very hard to provide delicious Chinese food. I have been going here for a few years. The food is fresh and flavorful. They make sure that you get a good value for your money. If you want Chinese that is good and prepared by people who actually care. This is the place to go. I have never been disappointed here. read more

I don't know how I had never been here before last week. I walked in and was able to get a HUGE amount of food for less than $30. I ordered crab rangoon, orange chicken, beef and broccoli, vegetable lo mien and crispy spring rolls. It came with a large side of steamed rice. This was WAY more than enough for me, my parents and sister. Everything had great flavor. I'm truly giving this a 5 star because of the ease, quality and quick service that I got when I walked in the other night and had all my food 20 mins later in a bag, ready to go. I'll definitely be returning and my parents have found their new favorite take out Chinese place as well! read more

Lady on phone speaking Chinese when I entered. Just took my order then continued to talk on speaker phone. When my food arrived I asked about my drink. She never said a word but pointed to clear fridge for me to get out drink. Just felt weird. Food was good. Chicken broccoli had carrots and mushrooms too read more

Good food, friendly service. Love to stop by and grab something to take home to the family!

This is the first place you should go if you want to have the worst dining experience of your life. We went and ordered sesame chicken and beef bok Choy and what came out was sesame beef and orange chicken. No good English was spoken and the food tasted horrible. The place was creepy too, we waited for our food about 20 minutes and it was clearly the stuff you can get at Costco in the big bags. We couldn't finish it. The food was so bad and I know for a fact that my digestive tract is going to be in critical condition in the coming hours, do not go here, whatever you do! read more

Tried China Star today based on recommendations who said it was great food and they were so right! Food was very tasty, plentiful and made fresh to my order needs. This is now my go to Chinese food spot! read more

I used the online option to order, pretty easy to use. The food was phenomenal!!! Hands down best Chinese cuisine in north KC! Ordered: -house special lo mein -crab rangoons -spring roll read more

Delicious food at a good price. Particularly enjoy the orange chicken and crab rangoon. Friendly staff every time we have visited.

Fantastic food at a great value. Really good service too. Highly recommend this local family owned business!

This place was fantastic! I was on a business trip and wanted to try a hole in the wall place. The food was amazing and was fresh. The restaurant was great and the seats were very comfortable. The woman who was running the register was very nice and even at the end of my meal she packed everything up for me! I would recommend this place to anyone! read more

Food poisoning! Do not recommend I would steer clear! I went here for Lunch and when waiting for my order I was able to peek into the kitchen and was questioning/ concerned about how my food was prepared. Going to take anti diaherra meds when I get home! Will not be back! read more

This place is not ready to be open in the COVID era. Order called in at 5, we were still outside waiting for our food outside at 6 pm. There is no SYSTEM and no way to check in when you get there. There are just 3-4 people outside waiting, and no way to let them know you are there. We never even got our food as our young kids got restless after 30 minutes of waiting in the July heat; so me and another couple just up and left. Will have to find another local place for Chinese, as they just aren't ready to be open at this time. Sad, for what used to be a decent place. I understand places have off nights, but the lack or respect for customers' time, is a no go with me. read more

Love China Star, their food is always hot and fresh and they give you a lot. We do always get our food to go as their dinner area is small. They also have coupons on the to go menu. The people running it are also very nice. This is our go to Chinese place! They also will allow you to customize your order, like my chicken and vegetables, j get the brown sauce on the side. This restaurant for sure won't disappoint. read more

Small little hole in the wall place. Only 5 tables for dine in. Very dated interior and in need of repair. Now for the food...fresh, hot and very tasty. read more

I used to loved China Star. But the owners have really let it gone downhill. The photos on the yelp review are very old. The menu board doesn't even light up anymore. Everything from the glass dividers, to the wall laminate is falling apart or very dirty. The register has at least a inch of dirt and dust on it. last time I ate there the food made me really sick because I knew they have not changed the oil in the fryer for sometime. read more

Food is delish! Portions are generous! I always order to go! I have their number saved in my phone for all my Chinese food emergencies! The staff is pretty awesome! They have always been friendly! The restaurant itself is pretty dated, and the chairs are kind of uncomfortable. It's also not a typical sit down type of establishment (you order your food and take to to a table, no wait staff) It is also NOT a buffet location. Now, wait before you ask yourself.... was her three star rating a mistake. No... I love and appreciate this location for what it is, good food - to go. I have to deduct 1 star because I don't care to dine in, and I also had to deduct 1 star because they don't deliver. read more

TI ordered Chicken with black beans sauce and the chicken was almost to salty to eat and there was almost no black bean saiuce. They alsop charged for water which I will not do. The vegetable were good. They only had plastic utensils and foam dinnerware. I won't be back. read more

Very good Chinese food. I always get the king pow chicken or the orange chicken dish. All their food is very good.

Great location for Parkville residents, and the lady running it was very nice. The good was great and the bad was really bad, so I settled for 3 stars. Good: crab Rangoon, chicken chow mein, friendliness. Bad: no air circulating in the restaurant on a high 80 degree day. I left sweating getting a Carryout order. Portion size: very small on the combination dinners. Not enough for dinner but good for lunch! Pork fried rice: blahhhhh. Will stick with white! On the fence overall. If I'm desperate for Chinese, I may go back. But a trip to Rainbow, Pei Wei, PF or Hong's would be worth it over this place. read more

Just moved to the Parkville area - first order of business? Find great cheap Chinese food, obviously. The boxes can wait. This little hole in the wall does not disappoint. Orders are ready basically right when you call them in, and pick-up and delivery are both an option. No matter when the food arrives, it is piping hot and absolutely delicious! The Crab Rangoon, generally my litmus test for Chinese food, is delicious and has real crab chunks on it. The Sweet and Sour chicken is made with big chunks of white meat, and the sauce comes on the side for your dipping pleasure. The General Tso's chicken is also made with big chunks of chicken and is perfectly fried and glazed. The veggie and tofu options are also very good. Best part? You can usually get out with food for two people (or a small army) for under $12-15. Overall, if you are in the mood for great cheap Chinese food in Parkvilleyou have found your place read more

With impressive reviews and a big appetite for good Chinese food we headed here to check the place out. After reviewing the menu the child (literally about 12 yrs old) at the front register rang in my moms order while he was playing with his phone how $7+$1.85 came out to $14.40 I will never know and when we asked he mumbled and looked at us like we were stupid. Never asked if I wanted to eat.. All of that paired with a filthy empty dining room, No AC, the front door open and the smell of cigarettes filling the place and being able to see the mess in the kitchen from the counter..... we decided to leave. Their family must be doing all the reviews, we were disappointed greatly. read more

The food and service have always been amazing. For the price that you pay, the food tastes amazing, and has become a favorite in our household. Sure the place could use some extra TLC with cracks in the wall, but the kitchen always appears clean. read more

This is classic Chinese food. If you are looking for a place to get your favorite staples, this is the place. Fast, fresh, and delicious.

Lunch special is good, you get a nice amount of food for about 6, and they have fast service. I eat here a lot because of the lunch special. read more

Only giving this place 1 star because there is no option to go negative. Bill was higher than expected so while I waited for my food I added it up from the menu and when I asked her to see her copy with the prices she tried to tell me tax went up and it just doesn't show it. Explained to her that even if tax when up from 7-9% that it would still not be a 10 dollar difference. She then conviently told me she raised all of her prices but is not advertising ant increased prices yet. It's no wonder the 2 other times we have gone here the place is empty. Don't come here unless you want to be ripped off and the food isn't that good!!! read more

Run by a very sweet lady, she treats everyone in a friendly and welcoming manner. Tip: Only the white sauce is vegetarian, ask for it.

It's not expensive or fancy, but the food tastes good. More tham a few times we have been comped soup with our meal. Note: this is NOT a place I like to eat in, but we love the take out. read more

The Szechuan Chicken is by far the best I've ever had. It's a non breaded dish that's full of veggies like broccolli, baby carrots, snow peas, onions & zucchini. Smothered in a rich broth with just a touch of heat. I mean barely any heat. But it's full of flavor & you can tell there's no skimping on the ingredients! And the crab Rangoon is super yummy & sweet. I love this place! read more

My favorite lil' Chinese take out! I order so much that I always get the free crab Rangoon (which are the best!!!)

Love this place! I haven't lived in the Northland long but as of right now this is my favorite spot for Chinese take out. The Crab Rangoon is probably some of the best I've ever had...and it's known I'll eat an entire 8-pc order by myself! I always try to order their lunch special since the sizes are a little smaller and better proportioned as well. read more

First off, the food here is amazing. We ordered the Happy Family and Combo Fried Rice. Everything is made to order. It's fresh AND delicious. This is not Chinese food that is marginal and that you only eat there because nothing else is available. It's so much better than standard Chinese takeout. That being said, I walked in a placed an order to go. So did quite a few other people. Not many people sitting and eating, mostly pick up orders. Due to the fact that they were cooking in the kitchen, we didn't see a lot of help outside the kitchen. And because of that, we probably won't be eating there, but we will definitely call ahead orders for pick up. read more

Absolutely my new favorite Chinese restaurant...I called In order, by the time I got there it was ready. So hot, delicious, and fresh!

My family and I love this place. It has become our Friday night tradition to get takeout, and have done so between 15 and 20 times now. First of all, it is inexpensive yet solidly good food. I cannot imagine actually eating in the restaurant; there are about ten tables, but I have never witnessed anyone eating there- takeout only. The food is not like eating at Bo Lings, but it is quite good for the value. The service is great. On a couple of occasions, they have been out of a food item, and only once forgotten an item. I sincerely hope China Star flourishes in Parkville so my Friday night meals are covered! read more
