    I had a great experience at V Star Buffet. (11/19/2025) The food selection was generous, freshly prepared, and consistently replenished. The flavors were delicious, and I appreciated how well-organized each station was. The staff were friendly, attentive, and quick to assist with anything we needed. The dining area was clean and comfortable, which made the whole visit even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a satisfying meal, and I look forward to coming back again whenever I'm back in town. My other observation is maybe they need to put hand sanitizer in every section of the dining area. Great job to all the staff!

    I have been coming here for almost 15 years! I still refer to it as Lucky Buffet. In fact, I used to go to the owner's old buffet location across the street. I have vivid memories going there with family and he'd have big TVs on raffle. Food hasn't changed much since then from what I remember. For what it's worth, I do like it and it's good for what it is locally. Especially their honey mayo shrimp and broccoli beef. The beef is always so tender and the broccoli is super green, fresh and has a nice crisp! I have also ordered catering a few times in the past year and their portions are HUGE! You definitely get what you pay for, which is also really reasonable. (See attached catering menu) Their location also has big rooms for parties, too. I am not sure of cost to rent though. Prior to a year ago, I haven't been here in a few years and I was glad to see they updated their facility. It is much cleaner. Their service is also good. They are always coming around to clear your plates to try to keep the area tidy. Parking is also really easy as they have a big lot.

    Dinner menu-only items - Salmon, mayo mussels, crawfish, cod, shrimp, and crab (not in photo; right of shrimp)

    Came in for monday dinner. Total cost was a bit over 27 dollars. This buffet is just okay. The food is warm, the sushi got an upgrade compared to 10 years ago, but I still miss the old version of stuffed crab, stuffed mushrooms, the dinner menu was missing the green beans you would see at most buffets, crab casserole, french chicken, and cheesy spinach. The selection is acceptable. The quality of the food overall is about average and is not anything to write home about. It is what it is, a buffet monopoly in Everett. The only other buffet is many miles away and not nearly as good.

    Food was very cold. The veggie rolls were soggy. Chicken was cold. Looked like it had been sitting there for a long period of time.

    Has anyone rented a private room there before? if so how much was the room?

    12/15/25: We were in the Everett, WA area that day, which was a day of heavy rains, gusty winds at…read more16 mph, and we were craving good Szechuan cuisine, so we found a quaint spot tucked away in downtown Everett along Colby Avenue; we were greeted with warmth and gracious hospitality. Our dining experience began with cold appetizers, including a mixed black fungus dish with a satisfying crunch and tangy vinegar flavor, alongside pickled lotus root vegetables with a garlicky and subtly spicy taste. For our main courses, we opted for the Deep Fried Fish Szechuan Style, which was filled with cod fish, had a lighter batter coating, and a pleasing crunch, but beware of its savory and fiery flavor, which intensifies after several bites. We also selected the Szechuan Hometown Tofu, which offered our taste buds a savory flavor, enhanced by chili sauce, a crunchy exterior, and a soft, silky interior. On the side, we ordered a bowl of steamed purple rice and white rice. This exceptional culinary experience combines the perfect balance of crunchiness, chili spice, garlicky freshness, and sweetness, rich flavors of Szechuan cuisine. I highly recommend this restaurant for an authentic Szechuan-style dining experience.

It is a huge portion but it is completely devoid of any flavor whatsoever. Usually onions add something but that did not help. I don't know how you can mess up noodles but no one in my family would eat them and there is one person in my family that will manage to eat almost anything and they refused. The sweet and sour chicken was drowning in sauce even though we asked more than once for the sauce to be on the side. We liked the bell peppers and onions in the sauce. The chicken pieces were of decent size. I did not care for the sauce. The white rice was well made and fluffy. The rice was probably the best part of the dish. About an hour later, we ended up throwing up the food. A complete waste of $31 dollars (which is pricey for what was supposed to be a lunch special). Also, vegetable chow mein and chicken chow mein is the same price which we found out after we had paid. Lunch is pictured and mention to include soup BUT you only get soup if you dine in. The place looked clean the the people seemed friendly. We may give them one more chance bc of the friendly service.

So glad this place survived after Covid. The seafood shaved noodle was solid. You get shrimp, squid and scallops. $13.95. Really? We are floored! Husband said it was exactly the same and he enjoyed it! He finished his whole plate. Impressed with the large portion!! Shrimp was huge! Instead of seafood, I asked to sub with chicken. Server said no problem! The chicken slices were super tender and juicy and the shaved noodle texture was perfection. It was a bit bland but nothing a lil' table soy can't fix. Only $11.95 for a huge platter. I was super hungry and cleaned my plate but for most, there'd be leftovers. Mapo tofu with white rice. The sauce had too much corn starch and the meat texture was not my favorite. I've had better but when you have spicy sauce over fluffy rice, it can be mediocre and still be satisfying..Would rather have this for my work lunch than Marie Callendar's any day. Pan fried pot stickers 8 pieces $7.95. Delicious. It's the thin skin kind. Classic, you can't go wrong! I can't eat fried stuff nowadays but their fried chicken wings were the best. Plump, juicy and piping hot! I am sure it's still amazing! They have lots of other menu items. On a colder day, I would go for the custom noodle soup bowls for $12.95. (Choose noodle, broth, 2 veg and 2 proteins). Duck noodle soup sounds amazing. For more topping, I think it's $2.25 per extra topping. One of the few places where most everything is below $15 per entree item and nothing above $20. I would like to try their oxtail noodle soup, sizzling beef or chicken platter, teriyaki short ribs, beef chow fun, and black bean noodle dish next time. Interior is clean with pleasant Cantonese Chinese music, free waters, and guava candy when you pay. The evergreen Asian supermarket next door has a lot of Asian grocery goodies with a Vietnamese deli inside. Durian is on sale for $4.29 a pound. Yes, you can get durian in Everett! Impressive! Worth the drive to get good Chinese then shop next door.

Unfortunately, after my experience this past Tuesday, I'm not sure I want to continue giving them my business. I always tip--usually above the suggested percentage or by selecting the preset option. This time, however, I had cash on me and planned to give the driver a cash tip. There has never been a time where I did not tip. When I placed my order, the confirmation stated that delivery would take about 45 minutes. Instead, the order arrived 40 minutes earlier than quoted--well before I was home. I would have been there within the promised timeframe, but because it was so early, my daughter accepted the order. I also always select "contactless--leave at door." The delivery driver, who has brought food to us before, knocked very hard on the door and then asked my daughter if we planned to tip. That was completely uncalled for. My daughter had no idea that I had ordered food, let alone that I intended to tip in cash. When she told the driver I wasn't home, the driver actually responded, "Oh, because you didn't tip," and then left. I was shocked. Had the order arrived at the quoted time, I would have been home to give the tip as planned. Instead, the driver ignored delivery instructions and embarrassed my daughter by demanding a tip. If management is reading this, I strongly urge you to remind your staff to follow delivery instructions and not pressure or question customers about tips--especially when the order is set to be contactless. A cash tip was ready, had it not been delivered well before the delivery time. For anyone planning to order and tip in cash: beware.
