This is one of the best Chinese buffets that i have visited. The selections are plentiful and very good. Well maintained and replenished frequently. There is also sushi and Mongolian barbecue. A good place to stop when shopping at the nearby outlets.

Firstly, that photo currently listed of the fancy schmancy table and buffet in background is NOT what this place is, lol. It's just a regular buffet. Hubby and I went there for Sunday lunch (So probably one of the more busy times for it) and we got in fairly quickly despite the business. We were put into a back room... More

Inconsistent is my gentle estimation of the Star Buffet. In the past, I reviewed it and said that it was the best Chinese food deal in the area, That was in 2012. I went with Amish friends a couple of weeks ago. Unfamiliar with Chinese-American food, they were well satisfied... but I found the food to be only average, and... More

When I get the urge for Chinese food, I head to Star Buffet. They have quite a variety to choose from. They offer the typical choices as well as some "American" food, and sushi. I don't go for the sushi, or even the desserts. I have to admit, it's mostly the chicken, such as General Tso's, or the Sesame Chicken;... More

Our family enjoys going to Chinese buffets because it's quick for the kids. We stopped here because the sign said the best buffet in the area. Our opinion is if this is the best, we won't go to any others in the area. The food was mediocre at best. Service was weak and the host that seated us was wearing... More

So much to eat, something for everyone. and not bad eye candy either. Worth the price for dinner. Clean friendly place, plenty of parking. Newly remodel. And they have a cooking station if you want something different or special.

The variety was overwhelming, but the best selection was the Mongolian Bar B Que, where you could select any type of meat and vegetables and they stirred fried it. The were lots of Chinese dishes,varieties of sushi and American entrees. The deserts were extensive, plus 4 flavors of ice cream. There were seafood items, 2 kinds of shrimp, mussels and... More
