I am so pleased that the buffet at Silver Star is open again. Never Disappoints - good selection. The Satay Chicken skewers are amazing. The staff are very attentive - I'd barely take a mouthful of water when my glass was refilled Buffet times 5:00 - 8:00 on weekends. read more

My parents and I hit this place up when we realized that Peppercorn's was closed down at the former location on the East side of QE2. It was pretty disappointing, considering how Airdrie Wok has a great buffet and is really clean. As we got to the restaurant, we walked through the front glass door, and went through the right-hand door ... into the lounge. We backed out, and went through the left-hand side into the narrow entrance of the restaurant. We were greeted, and told to take a seat wherever we liked. The restaurant was empty at 6pm on a Friday night except us, and one other family - others straggled in as our meal went on, but it remained very quiet. We took our seats, and were given some water. We then sat for about 5 minutes before anyone asked us if we would like the buffet or menus - we decided we'd give the buffet a try. Fairly typical Chinese buffet was offered, including the usual wonton soup, rice, noodles, sauced and deep-fried fare. The deep-fried foods were all over-doughy and a bit oily, as though the deep-frier wasn't hot or clean enough. The pork fat on the dry ribs was incredibly strong, and the veggies were over-cooked to the point of being mushy. Most of the food could easily have been sitting on the buffet since the lunch buffet was put out, judging by it's freshness. The highlights, however, were the simple wonton soup and the chicken skewers that seemed to be curried - the rest I could have quite easily left on my plate. Dessert options were minimal - the traditional yellow cookies served on buffets, and a bucket of strawberry ice cream was left in the buffet freezer... I passed on dessert. Despite the less-than-stellar meal, the staff was polite and quick with clearing plates and refilling water glasses. The prices were affordable ($9.99 lunch buffet and $12.99 dinner buffet), and we got fortune cookies to go. My fortune: "One good turn deserves another.." Consider this review a "good turn" - unless you're starving and unable to get to the next closest restaurant, I'd pass on this experience. Check out Airdrie Wok or Jen's Vietnamese on Main Street (West Airdrie) for some much more appealing Asian-inspired fare. read more

The best Chinese in Airdrie! This is our go to for years now. The food is always fresh, hot, and delicious. Pick up is fast. Never a bad meal or issue with the meal! The owners are always so friendly and kind! Will always go here for our Chinese! read more

We ordered delivery and the food came quickly. However it's quality left much to be desired. First, the Wor Wonton Soup was overly oniony, with large chunks of uncooked onion right in the Wontons. Second, the Ginger Beef, Sweet & Sour Pork, and Salt and Pepper Squid were all very overdone and tough. We're talking our jaws hurt after chewing on a couple pieces of Ginger Beef. Will not order from here again. read more

Normally it's okay, but tonight we tried it, and sadly will be our last. Over cooked, not overly warm. Dumplings where over cooked but yet chewy. More hard egg roll cover then necessary on the egg roll. Just not a nice visit. read more

This was some of the worst Chinese food I have ever ate. I have ordered from here in the past although a few years ago and was actually pretty good at that time. Unfortunately the quality has really gone down hill. We ordered the Almond Soo Gai which was supposed to come with chicken with lemon sauce, however the sauce was some sort of bland fat gravy and we didn't eat any of it. The house special chop suey was luke warm and had some sort of rubbery chicken pieces which tasted bland and didn't look very appetizing. The "free" spring rolls were greasy and heavy. Not fresh at all. The price was expensive and definitely not warranted for the quality. NEVER WILL ORDER THERE AGAIN. read more

Very disappointing... as my friend said "the worst chinese food i've ever had". The chicken balls consisted of a hard batter, with very little actual chicken at the centre. Egg rolls had a weird taste and appearance. I could go on... but basically if you are craving chinese food, look elsewhere! read more
