Great food most of the time. Family runs the place and they are nice.

Good take out Chinese food, reasonable prices.

So we hardly order food from here. But now I am convinced to NEVER order from this place. I order Mongolian beef and they left pieces of what looks like the pieces of the scouring pads in my food. I thought it was just one but I found 2 more after. DO NOT EAT/ORDER here or you’ll be in for a surprise.

So I was on a Chinese kick today and had both Jin Jin and China Star in the same day. In my Jin Jin review I gave them 3 stars... Well China Star, you get two. To be fair to both though, their food is about what one could expect from Chinese food in this area. They cater to the fact that most people don't know what decent (I won't say real) Chinese food is and I think that if the food was more authentic people would complain about spice or it looking weird or some things being unidentifiable. I will say that MAYBE the woman that took my order was friendlier than the rigid woman at Jin Jin, but I couldn't care less about that. If I want atmosphere or hospitality I will find a Pei Wei or P.F. Chang (both are amazing). Okay I do have one totally objective issue with China Star: when I walked in, there were no other customers so to be expected, the employees were in the back making dumplings. How do I know they were making dumplings? Well, the woman that took my order had a raw one in her hand and she placed it on the counter next to the register while the took my order. Regardless if it was for herself or not, inappropriate. I ordered kam pao chicken, which I assume is supposed to be kung pao, and an order of chicken lo mien. The only resemblance to whatever-pao was that it had some peanuts in it. Not spicy at all. Basically the standard array of diced vegetables that is the same in almost all the dishes at places like this with a few unimpressive pieces of meat. The lo mien has me confused; it's orange. No flavor and more or less a mass of noodles packed into a box. Jin Jin certainly beats them there, but even the best speller in a math contest still isn't doing something right.I might go back. I will probably try something different and there is possibility I will be impressed, but for now my 2 star rating stands.

ALL Food was very over cooked and greasy. No sauce in the dinners as they seemed to be cooked out. Was the first and LAST time we will order from here. Save your time, go to another Chinese restaurant.

Everything was burnt or over fried. I spent over $80 for inedible food. Front staff was rude. Do NOT recommend!!!! Rice was dry and crunchy. Idk how this place is still open.

One of the best Chinese places in Crestview, the place is clean and they make your food fresh. Love it!

The food is always good. We eat there once a week and have enough leftovers for the next day

The lady at the window was not friendly she acted like she had an attitude the fried rice was a lil hard and the general chicken was not all that great either. This was my first time going to them and will be my last

I would give zero stars if I could. Ordered fried rice. Of course they got it wrong. Gave me white rice. I explained to them that I ordered fried rice. The woman argued and said I hadn't. I think I know what I ordered lady. Very rude workers. Wouldn't recommend them.
