China Star - Sarasota

This was literally the worst experience I ever had for Chinese takeout. I misunderstood our order, and the food that WAS sent was very clearly superfluous from lunch that sat all day in a heat window. Crab Rangoon was soggy and stale like the egg rolls. Couldn't even bite her. 100% garbage.

Ordered General Tso chicken, orange chicken, fried rice, 3 egg rolls, and some crab Rangoon at 6pm. The order took 55 minutes and once we opened the food we realized they had messed up the order and gave us food we are 99% sure was under a heat lamp all day. Instead of tso and orange they gave us 2 orange and white rice, the chicken was chewy and disgusting, the egg rolls were partially cold/chewy/extremely hard, and the crab Rangoon was God awful with soft/chewy exterior and what tasted like cold walmart crab salad inside. This was a God awful experience for my tastebuds. Judging from the other reviews this place recently went down hill hard and I strongly advise against coming here. Jade Garden is a much better experience all around but sadly they were closed and we had to suffer through this food . If I could give 0 stars I would.

We buy a fair amount of Chinese food,our usual place was closed and we were forced to venture out of our comfort zone.One of the main things i order in bulk is Hot Sour Soup amongst other things,boy was i in for a bad surprise,it looked and tasted like they threw in all the left overs from 4 different dishes and so sickly sweet we had to throw it all away nobody could eat it and traditionally it is a very simple dish,we will never try them a again a large soup is expensive,thumbs down. In the following photos the soup on the left is the poo soup with god knows in it The soup on the right is normal from our regular place and edible,beware

I need to give a shout out to this place! We got off work late and was looking for a chinese restaurant that open after 8 or 9pm. We came in, the lady assisted us right away, we ordered Orange Chicken, Beef Mixed Vegetable, Hot and Sour soup, and Egg drop soup. They were all yummy!!! I would recommend this place to my friends!

Well, this was the fourth time for us eating here. The sushi was really great. They made me cream cheese -eel roll, that is my absolutely favorite. Every time we got really delicious food. Definitely we?ll come back.
