    Basic fried rice.
    Nakita K.

    I ordered take out from here in hopes to enjoy a wonton soup. I'm very sorry to say the soup was not good. The wonton wraps were too thick, they were filled with only pork (no ginger, shrimp, or green onion) and were definitely too salty. I also ordered a side of veggies and fried rice (mandatory.) I'm not a fan of the fried rice they have because it's essentially the version that has the frozen mixed vegetables, whereas I like more fresh, full veggies in mine. But I had to pick a rice. The veggies I ordered as a side were okay. Nothing special, drowned in the sweet sauce. Mostly broccoli. The food was hot and well packaged, so that's a plus. But, overall I ordered this meal for the soup and unfortunately I was disappointed.

    It was a Friday. It was my last full day of my trip. I had been working in my hotel. It was lunch time. I needed to fetch some grub. I did a search on my Uber Eats app. I found Golden Wok. I was in Eagan and so was this restaurant. I continued my quest for decent Chinese food. I got the following items: - Shrimp with lobster sauce, with an egg roll and Diet Coke - Steamed dumplings (8) The estimated pickup time was fifteen minutes. It was perfect for me to leave the hotel and drive over. This eatery is in a plaza. I had no problem finding it. I parked steps away from the entrance and walked in on a rainy day. It felt like a mom-and-pop shop when I walked it. It felt homey. A man said that he'd be with me shortly. There was another man waiting for his food. The man got his food first. I then showed my pickup details on my phone. I got my food in a paper bag, with a plastic bag over it. I thanked him and left. I got a combo special. I ate everything back at my hotel room. I had the egg roll first. It was crunchy and had a decent amount of veggie filling. I liked it. My Diet Coke was cold. Nice! I had the dumplings next. They were small with little filling in each one. I frankly don't know if it was pork or chicken. It was indistinguishable. It came with dipping sauce that made them taste better. I have been enjoying shrimp with lobster sauce on fried rice from New China in Rochester. It has set the bar high. I had this eatery's version on chicken fried rice. It is definitely not as good at New China's version. What made this dish disappointing was the number of imitation crab chunks that accompanied the shrimp. This dish doesn't need fake crab meat. There were six huge shrimp. Don't sacrifice quality with quantity. This dish would have tasted better without the fakeness. The shrimp were done perfectly. The shrimp were generous in size. The sauce needed more flavour. The mixed veggies in this dish were likely from frozen, but I like them. The chicken fried rice was okay. It tasted a bit bland. It needed more of a sear with crispy bits to provide more flavour. Perhaps I need a different dish that I will love more. I will try another dish next time and see how I feel. As for my go-to Chinese place in Eagan, it's still Ho Ting. (135)

    Food and service both reliably good. Spice is easily adjusted for more or less Minnesotan palates.

    Customer service was rude, cream cheese wontons underdone, and rice tastes like it was cooked in dish water. Won't order here again.

    The best chicken fried rice you can get in Eagan, MN. My partner said the pork egg rolls are…read morecrunchy, savory, and delicious - this is important to note because he doesn't verbalize on food beyond saying 'decent' or 'not bad' .... this kind of mention was like going to the moon via his take on taste. Wontons are larger than most places. They can be busy (because it's so nummy) but they get it out timely. Take out is still great on arrival and still taste like new if you want to heat up later in your week for lunch. There are a few tables inside but not really a dine in place.

They were super busy for takeout while we were there dining in. So don't plan on eating here if the tables are full. The food was hot!!! I love my food steaming hot! Flavors were great!! Pho was a bit sweet. I would pass on that next time. Chow fun was one of the best I've ever had. Lemongrass chicken was really good and not easily available at other places so I would go back just for that. Chicken wings were so hot and crispy! We ordered them spicy but they were not spicy. The sauce was more sweet and sour. Ask for chili oil but be careful and only use a little because that is spicy! They do not have tap water, bottles available for purchase.

You pay when you first arrive with cash or card (they only take visa and mastercard). Note that if you pay with a card and add a tip, they will just give you cash from the register for the tip amount to leave at your table when you leave. I would bring cash to tip your server with at your table. After paying, you can seat yourself anywhere and a server will come by and take your beverage order. The buffet includes unlimited soft drinks, drip coffee, and hot tea. Their Dr. Pepper is extra syrupy compared to normal fountain drinks, would recommend! Throughout the meal, the server will clear your empty plates and at the end of the meal they will drop off fortune cookies and towelettes. Crab days are Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. During these days they serve lil crabs. There is also a build your own noodle station where you can choose your mix-ins and sauces, and they'll fry it up for you. The fried rice is solid and the garlic toast is shockingly really good. Food is pretty fresh and warm, and there are people constantly refilling trays and cleaning the buffet.

The restaurant is located in a strip mall, and most of the businesses in that strip mall have signs posted saying "No buffet parking," which limits the available spots unless you don't mind walking a short distance. We got there just before the dinner rush and managed to find a few open spaces. Inside, the restaurant was beautifully decorated. We went up to the front counter, told the gentleman how many were in our party, and paid for our meals. One thing that stood out was the tip process, when you choose to leave a tip during payment, they hand it to you in cash so you can personally give it to your server. I thought that was a really nice touch from Dragon Star. The buffet itself had an impressive variety of options, including a Hibachi station. What caught my attention about the Hibachi was how the two cooks used a round grill and long sticks to prepare the food, it was entertaining to watch and they made sure the food went neatly into each customers bowls. However, one thing I didn't like was that the pork and chicken were placed too close together and were touching, which isn't ideal for those of us who don't eat pork. On the plus side, the cooks kept the grill spotless between uses, which was great to see. They also offered plenty of desserts and had a ton of seating. Despite the limited parking, the buffet is reasonably priced, has a good selection of sushi, and offers a great dining experience overall. My wife and I definitely plan to return, next time we'll try to go before 4 p.m., since things get pretty hectic around 5, but that's to be expected with all the good things Dragon Star has to offer.

We grabbed seats at their tiny 4-seat bar, which turned out to be the perfect spot for the evening.

We went all-in and ordered the Potsticker Feast ($95): two of every kind of potsticker they make, plus all four dipping sauces, Ribeye Noodles, Korean Wings, General Tso's Chicken, and House Cucumbers. The potstickers were awesome but given the name of the place I was surprised that the real standouts were the other dishes. The ribeye was perfectly marinated and tender, tossed with a variety of vegetables and stir-fried noodles. The wings were terrific and the General Tso's was perfect. Don't sleep on the cucumbers either...smoky, spicy, and sweet, with peanuts and sauce. My favorite potstickers were the Beef & Carrots and the Kimchi Pork. If you're looking for scratch-made Asian fusion with great hospitality, Potsticker is hard to beat.

I ordered the Stir Fry Spicy Beef, Mapo Tofu, and the Pork Belly. Everything was tasty and have no complaints as far as the actual flavors. I do think that the Mapo Tofu should always be soft tofu rather than firm, but that's just a personal preference. The beef was plentiful and extra tender and the pork belly was perfectly melt-in-your-mouth, so good that I felt like I had to ration it throughout the next few meals. I do wish it came with more rice. I ordered three sides and only got one box of rice. I was hoping to have at least two so I can eat it for several days. However, to end on a positive note, when I walked in to pick up my order, the woman (owner possibly) was incredibly friendly and spoke Mandarin to me. She was welcoming, funny, and we briefly argued how spicy food should really be for it to be enjoyable. "The spicier the better," me thinks. Come show these guys some love!
