China Star Restaurant - Wichita Falls

I came to China star today for dinner and boy was I surprised. Everyone around this area praised it for its high quality food so naturally, I went too sit down and try it out for my self. When I first pulled up I noticed this location had a very run down not well kept, ugly appearance. It looked as if this place had been abandoned for ages. Next I walk in and the only visible waitress had us wait for about 3 minutes before acknowledging us.We were then INSTRUCTED to pick up used old menus that were NOT laminated no professionalism in sight so far, she then says okay go ahead and sit over there too the right. So not only did she not seat us but told us to just go elsewhere after getting our own menu's. We sit down, another 7 minutes passes she kept telling us hold on one minute, hold on. So we waited we finally ordered and got out food in 15 minutes. Not bad, what IS bad is how lazy and short staffed this place was, I watched this couple leave here before us and throughout our whole meal that table was never cleaned it was dirty the whole time. The waitress who I now know, is the owner comes out with Two trays with our food on them. Plastic forks, 2 napkins, and our food in Styrofoam containers. The inside of this restaurant is clean, nice traditional mandarin quotes around and an over all nice theme.Moving on too the food, my pork fried Rice was Shiny, SHINY it tasted like vegetable oil and it was absolutely awful. These pot stickers were, if I'd guess too say about 60 fat in total content. The soup was also in a Styrofoam cup. So far awful food complete grease, not hot besides what was fried and so far still no professionalism. We couldn't get tea so we settled for bottled water and sprite. I then stopped her once as she's not checked on us once since serving us our trays like a small school. And I say Ma'am, may I please have some salt. She says oh yeah sure. She comes back out after 4 minutes in the kitchen and not a Salt and pepper shaker set in hand, but a PEPPER SALT COMBO packet like at Costco. At this point my mind is blown at how they have 4 stars.The prices were very high for what I received and the story of today is professionalism . Lacks any professional, waitress had no apron and put thumbs on tray not under tray. Place was dumpy on exterior and food was horrendous. No cleaning of tables and the end cost was 35.50 for about 2.5 servings of food. If I could give 0 stars I would. I do not expect culinary perfection in the middle of no where North TX, but I DO expect to not have a heart attack after eating here from all the grease.0 stars

This place was my late mom's favorite Chinese place. I'm looking forward to dine in reopening to have a meal in her honour.

Eating is good, but simply not as it is used. Please bring the buffet back, please. the staff is simply not friendly anymore. lady previous said the owner will not return the buffet due to the price of the food. they had a customer base in the hundreds a day. other entrepreneurs have opened their buffet, but not here. I should go forward and just be close.

Great food. st. louis rib, oranges huhn and beeen fried rice supplied hot. many thanks for a great meal.

It seems that this restaurant could be a sacrifice of the covid19! the inconspicuous appearance of the outside of the building does not justice this place! the inner, though a bit dated, is quite beautiful and it is obvious that these people had this business had rocking for many years in the past. wall decoration offers a proud carrier of our US military. my spicy meat bark dinner was good and the portions are big! the personal was pleasant. this place would be a great candidate for chef ramsey restaurant makeover, because it is quite clear that these people offer a good product and proud of their offers and in their adopted country. truly a scandal, how anthony fauchi and the biden regime have destroyed so many companies. Hopefully, these people have the opportunity to bring this place back. I'll eat back here when I'm back in town when I'm driving halfway.
