China Star — Restaurant in Minot

It been a long time since I been here. Last time was probably 2015ish. They have remodeled since than. It more bright and the booths are more open. I like the remodel alot.

Came here around 1130. At first it was kinda quiet. Than by 1200 everyone start showing up. The staff is friendly and polite. Very soft spoken which I like.

You defintely get your bang for your buck if your hungry. Less than $20 is not bad for all you can eat nowadays.

There a ton of options, I am skipping the hibachi because the chef looks tired haha. Don't blame him though. There was a rush.

More seafood than I thought would be present. Fried rice was OK but it meat for all, not specialized. The Mongolian beef was my favorite. But the chicken options and everything else tasted good. Freshly made.

They have plenty of deserts. Not many vegan options unless you like cucumber and tomatoes. Which were delicious actually.

Sushi was extremely good, was hesitate about it. But seeing the Tuna sashimi with a nice red hue made me give it a shot and the California roll was your typical kind.

Overall, if you want quantity come here. It kid friendly. Did see lot of seniors but it also Sunday and now probably after church hours. I did recieve a refill without having to ask.

I'll be back when I am on empty tank. Only completed 4 full plates this time. Thanks for...

I gave atmosphere 3 stars because I didn't stay, I had ordered takeout but it was always busy so I assume that people enjoyed being there and their buffet spread looked great. That said, this place is kinda backwards in that they gives you those packet sauces whether you want it or not but they try their best not to give you cutlery with your takeout. Now, I do a lot of takeout all over the country wherever I land and I've NEVER experienced people assuming you want sauces (which I always decline) but also assuming you won't need cutlery with your takeout. Like, really?!?! Takeout and cutlery SHOULD ALWAYS go together but sauces should be optional. Someone needs to tell them. I had to ask for cutlery both times but the loaded me up with sauces which I promptly threw in the trash because they...

Food was alright. They could be changing things out more frequently for what you’re paying to eat it, but it wasn’t horrible and have had worse. Service was some of the best service we have had. Our waitress was so very kind and patient. I always tip people that treat others with respect regardless if tip is custom or not. Atmosphere? This place needs some serious updates. We were a big party so we were moved towards the back, with no lights. I already have vision problems so reading anything to trying to see if there was any sushi I could eat (shellfish allergy) was really hard and I had to use my phone light. Bathrooms are always gross. Giving 4/5 based on experience and food. Please consider cleaning/upgrading to...
