China Star in Düsseldorf

Sorry, I use Chinese here, but I want to tell you that this place is very good. I have been there at least four times and took my friends there. Whether they are Japanese, Korean or Chinese, it is very suitable to eat here. There are a lot of things here, including barbecue and sushi, and they are very delicious. I suggest you go early, otherwise you may eat up. If you can’t understand, please translate, thank you

We arrived at around 8 pm, there are quite a few food left, they did not service new food. The quality of the fruit is so bad, we ask to provide some fruits like watermelon, they said they don’t have more watermolen. But at their website, it mentioned the restaurant will open till 10:30 pm, so I assume at least the food should be served till 10pm. It is so disappointing. When we want to pay the pill, the woman’s attitude is soooo rude, we want to insert the bank card by ourself, she said ‘I don’t eat your card 我又不会把你的卡吃掉‘. In my lifetime, this is the worst experience and the worst attitude from a waiter. And I point it out, her attitude is still not sincere and ignorant. Will never go to this restaurant again. By the way, it is also not so authentic Chinese food!!! The seafood, especially the shrimps are not fresh!!!

Food was standard, nothing exceptional. There were a lot of Asian people eating there, which means it must be good. We missed the proper labeling of the containers, normal cooked rice, and general selection. There were chicken feet and other exotic things. I don't necessarily have to come back. The store was full so it was very loud. Are used to better things.

Unfortunately our visit to this restaurant was a disappointment. At first everything was fine during the meal, but after we ate we each wanted to take some ice cream with us. To our surprise, we were stopped quite sternly by a member of staff - we were told that we could only eat the ice cream in the restaurant. Otherwise we would have to pay an additional 2 euros per person if we wanted to go with the ice cream. This regulation was neither explained to us beforehand nor is it understandable to us. The way this was pointed out to us was rude and unfortunately left a negative mark on the entire experience. Overall, not a pleasant experience - we cannot therefore recommend this restaurant.

We've been there more than once, we like everything, although they make some kind of national soup separately, we don't do that, in the evening there's a lot of delicious seafood, a pleasant atmosphere

Unfortunately it didn't convince us.

Food is edible, but nothing authentic or tasty, which you can't expect from most buffets anyway. However, I found the food here to be below average for buffets: meat was either very dry and hard or partially raw, and a lot of it was very fatty and bland. Sushi was OK, as well as hotpot. Additionally, the service was friendly. The ambience isn't very bad, but it doesn't suit my taste.

We were there today, everything was great, we were welcomed very friendly, the food was perfect, the ambience was very nice, decoration and so we were very satisfied, my sweetheart and I

We really enjoyed the food, I thought everything was very fresh and there was always plenty of it. The price is very acceptable

The best Chinese restaurant in Düsseldorf! Nice, spacious, cozy, well-located and with great service! Huge all-you-can-eat buffet with lots of variety and everything very delicious! We will definitely go back there, we only spent €40 for a couple

Food is delicious but can sometimes only be lukewarm. Unfortunately there was no beef available. Too bad...

Slipped from 5* to 3*. It was our favorite Chinese for a very, very long time. Once upon a time... The best were the giant prawns in the shell with lemongrass and peppercorns and the glass noodles with vegetables, simply a delight. The store has been remodeled at least three times since then, which is a credit to the operator (equipment is mediocre). But the menu and the food concept have also been changed several times. Unfortunately, and I really mean that, for the worse. It's really a shame. The food is often overcooked and no longer has the quality it once had. The selection has also become smaller. I'm hoping for a positive change, otherwise I'll often have to travel a long distance to go to another restaurant. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Very tasty and fresh food, good choice! Amazing place and very friendly staff 🌟

Not as good as before, the ingredients aren't fresh enough, the selection is getting smaller and smaller.

I came there for the first time, I have already been to similar restaurants, but I want to note that I liked this place much more. Pleasant atmosphere, large halls, pleasant service, all with smiles. I recommend this restaurant it was very tasty 😋

Tastes good! The selection is not particularly large, but enough.

We have eaten at China Star many times and have always been satisfied. Tonight was our last visit to this restaurant. The food from the buffet was at most lukewarm, rather cold. The dish we ordered only arrived after 45 minutes and the sprouts were charred. Our criticism was understood and empathized by the very nice and pleasant waitress. The boss said everything was perfect and it was because we were in a bad mood. About the mood: We celebrated Rose Monday and our birthday today - that says it all. Unfortunately we will not be visiting this restaurant again and cannot recommend it.

Very rich buffet. The vegetables are very fresh and all types of meat taste excellent and are also freshly prepared. Sushi 🍣 and desserts are also highly recommended. Prices are slightly higher but justified. The service is still excellent and very friendly.

The staff is very nice, and the service is excellent. What caught my attention since we entered was that one of the team members noticed that we were of Arab origin, so he took the initiative to alert us to the dishes that contained pork. Although the names of the dishes were clearly written, he did so out of care and respect, which I found to be the height of taste and respect. The seafood dishes are varied and fresh, some of which I could not find in other restaurants, but the fried food options were limited. The negative for me was the presence of chicken feet and pig intestines, as well as some strange vegetables. The authorities were also very poor in terms of diversity. This is what made me remove a star from the rating. As for desserts, the green katu was delicious, and among the fruits, the cranberries were delicious. Overall, I recommend trying the restaurant, and I will come back again.

Not very tasty, the plates are wet, it’s not pleasant to pick them up. The food is highly fried and very greasy

😋Taste: Delicious, intense, not bland like normal Chinese food. 👍Food: There are many types to choose from. 🦞Seafood: Mostly frozen. But it's still considered fresh and not fishy (you can choose it yourself and have it grilled or fried by the chef). 💶Price: Dinner 24,90€/Pax, no time limit, drinks not included. 👉Atmosphere: Nice to sit, bright, clean, with both round tables and square tables, all on the 2nd floor. 🚗 There is dedicated parking.

Can I recommend this place? Clearly no! Contrary to other visitors' experiences, I found the staff to be quite nice. The food, however, was lousy! I have rarely eaten so badly. In my opinion, the all-you-can-eat buffet consisted mainly of cheap products, a lot of it was fried, and the fat tasted old. The choice of flavors was limited to soy sauce and sweet and sour. The soup tastes like it comes from a can. The clear desert buffet was lined up and was anything but tasty, actually just sweet. Only the fresh blueberries were delicious. I'm really sorry to have to write something like this about a restaurant, but it was just bad. I definitely won't go there again.

Always my pleasure. Nice and friendly employees.

Very good restaurant lots of fresh and delicious food. Happy to come back!

We had a dinner together with our company. The shandy tasted kind of weird, but I bravely drank it anyway. My highlight was the fried entrecote, which you can only put on the plate to fry on its own, i.e. without any other ingredients. All other ingredients such as leg of lamb, chicken, etc. can also be served with salad, etc. Place on a plate to fry and use the numbered clothespin on the plate to take it to the kitchen for live cooking. Broccoli tasted strangely seasoned. Of the finished dishes, the duck was my highlight. Delicious and crispy. My loved ones really liked the shrimp. The atmosphere has something cool about it. Could be the light. Even more information signs about food could provide even more clarity. Overall and despite all the little things, it was still a great evening and everyone was full and happy.

The taste and value for money are average.

A great place to enjoy unlimited seafood! Although it is a buffet, the selection and quality of the seafood will be outstanding. Thanks to the friendly staff I had a very pleasant meal. Even without eating the hotpot, I will still be able to enjoy the seafood to the fullest. I will definitely come back!

Do it even deserve one star. Rude staffs.

Amazing place! Highly recommend. Will come back for sure.

The food at the buffet tastes really delicious. The selection of side dishes (potatoes/vegetables) is far too small! The buffet now consists more of “fresh ingredients”, putting the food together yourself and then having it cooked in the kitchen. It really looked anything but tasty and tasted nothing like an experience. Too bad! I eat very little meat, but I would never have eaten what came out of the kitchen. That all went back. The dessert was very minimal, with some fresh fruit: honeydew melon, Galia melon, tangerines, lychee and blueberries, cake (5 variations) and ice cream. The last few times we went to another Chinese restaurant that also offers "All You Can Eat", it was worlds better: the taste was far greater and the offerings were much larger; the side dishes alone had different potato variations, different vegetables, and a candy bar , fruit in many variations (melons, pineapple, kiwi, strawberries, blueberries, oranges, lychee) various desserts, soft ice cream, ice cream, chocolate fountains and cakes. The service was very good here. The ambience is definitely nice. We go back to the other Chinese restaurant and we liked it much better there.

The China Star Restaurant is a cozy, pastel-colored eatery offering Chinese, Japanese and Mongolian cuisine from the buffet. The food is fresh and delicious, and the staff is friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the prices are fair. I would particularly like to highlight the lamb chops and the seafood – both were absolutely delicious and highly recommended. I can recommend the China Star Restaurant to anyone who wants delicious and authentic Asian cuisine and values ​​fresh ingredients.

I got a box from TooGoodToGo here and got food poisoning as a result. I definitely wouldn't recommend this store because they seem to serve bad food. Too bad :/

Ok, but suffers from the same issues like every other buffet restaurant: Average quality too low. I’d rather recommend to go to a specialty restaurant and enjoy a higher per-dish quality for an adequate price.

Very bad restaurant, overpriced and very bad treatment

Poor treatment and little space

The food was delicious. Very very tasty. And the service is wonderful. But the tables are close together.

The seafood is fresh and the waiters are friendly.

Recommend the lamb chops and seafood. The waiters are very friendly and helpful.

The service here is very good and the waiters are very friendly.

Lots of seafood. Sushi and duck taste good super tasty

The food is always awesome. People are super nice and effective. Highly recommend!

Were there on Christmas Day. Very crowded. Dirty plates were not cleared away. There is better buffet, little selection.

A very good place for a buffet. Many varieties of food . Friendly staff. Good recommendation for buffet lovers.

What I really like about this restaurant is the food, which is of good quality and low price. I came all the way from Belgium to eat here.

The ingredients are very fresh and taste good. It's very close to the city center. The lemon chicken feet is the highlight.

My reviews reflect only MY experience AT the time. Places can improve OR decline. So be understanding & consider other reviews to form your opinion. Cuisine: Chinese Buffet Date of Visit: December 17, 2024 Buffets can be a mixed bag, but this one leans heavily toward the “avoid at all costs” side of things. While variety is the selling point of most buffets, the quality here leaves much to be desired. A lack of actually fresh ingredients and questionable handling of seafood make for a regrettable dining experience. ATMOSPHERE The space is large and well-lit, the noise level is high, making it hard to enjoy your meal. The décor is dated and feels more like a cafeteria than a restaurant. There’s a few decorations that evokes Chinese culture and tries to give the place a little charm. Idk if there’s an elevator but I didn’t see any. Could be a deal breaker for ppl with special needs. FOOD • APPETIZERS & SIDES: There’s a few things to rate here but most of it is “meh” 3/5 at best • MAIN COURSES: Salmon The salmon was the worst offender. It was evident this fish had been defrosted multiple times, resulting in a mushy, watery texture and an off-putting flavor. Calling it “the worst salmon of my entire life” might be true. This dish alone made me lose my appetite. And don’t even ask about sushi or rolls (Rating: 0.5/5) Meat Honestly, I had worst or maybe same level so I wasn’t surprised. Chewy and old, not tasty at all. (0.5/5) Sweet and Sour Chicken The sweet and sour chicken was edible, but that’s about the best thing I can say. Probably the best thing I kinda liked. (Rating: 3.5/5) Stir-Fried Noodles These were passable but unremarkable. (Rating: 3.5/5) SERVICE Service was there, as is typical for a buffet. Staff refilled the trays sporadically. Plates were cleared promptly. Though there were smiles it felt really cold. They do their best I guess. CONCLUSION This buffet fails on the most basic fronts: freshness, quality, taste and pricing. It’s not worth the disappointment. The salmon alone was a dealbreaker, and many other dishes felt like they’d been reheated or left out for far too long. Definitely not worth travelling 30min there so I won’t be returning. Again, it’s just my experience at that time. So don’t judge too harshly because some ppl like it. As for me,… I’ll look elsewhere. Overall Rating: 2/5

Today we were there for lunch. Totally comfortable and nicely furnished. The employees are super nice! It was delicious too, thank you! Gladly again

It's super bad. Pay attention to the waiters. Guests can't offend them because it's hard for the boss to find workers. If you don't eat hot pot, you can't take the vegetables in the window. Although there are no obvious signs, the waiter will stop you. Boss, you don’t lack me as a customer anyway, I will bring my friends to visit like sb, but then you turn your back and deny me🤭🤭🤭My relatives and friends will not go again. What rubbish, treating old customers like this.

Very pricey for what you get, many things are missing such as peppers or satay sticks and the like. Products are absolutely not fresh for €15, a great deal. Absurdly expensive for €25.90!

The food tastes terrible and the service attitude is terrible.

Very good Chinese restaurant. Not the first time there. There is free parking. Everything is great.

The food was totally fine. Not spectacular, I thought the selection was good. Sushi, all sorts of things for grilling, meat, vegetables and dessert. The quality is really ok. But suitable for a buffet at this price.

The lunch we went for was a good deal. The sushi was delicious and there were many types of seafood. It might be busy, so the waiter's attitude was average.

A few days ago I ate in this atmosphere, but that won't happen again in the future. After eating there I got extreme food poisoning. My doctor told me it was due to samonella. I don't recommend eating there!

Very friendly staff. Delicious food, good price-performance ratio

I recently had the pleasure of visiting China Star Chinese Restaurant and was completely delighted with my experience. Eat: The food at China Star is simply fantastic. Every dish I tried was freshly prepared and tasted authentic and delicious. I was particularly impressed by the variety of the menu - from classic dishes like Peking duck and Kung Pao Chicken to delicious dim sums and fresh sushi variations. The flavors were well balanced and the ingredients were high quality. Service: The service at China Star was first class. The staff was friendly, attentive and accommodating. Our orders were taken and served quickly, and the staff was always willing to answer questions and make recommendations. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Ambiance: The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, with a pleasant mix of traditional Chinese decor and modern style. The cleanliness and order in the restaurant were also exemplary. It was a pleasure to dine in such an appealing environment. Value for money: Prices at China Star are fair and reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the food and the excellent service. The price-performance ratio is absolutely right here and I think you really get a lot for your money here. Conclusion: China Star Chinese Restaurant is definitely worth a visit. It offers excellent food, great service and a pleasant atmosphere. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious Chinese food experience. I will definitely come back!

Delicious and tasty chinese food! This is one of my favorite buffet resto. They also offer chicken feet which was deboned, pig feet, scallops, fish, shrimps and of course lobster. If you ate craving for sea foods, this resto it worth for you to try. Ithink they just limit their refill of lobster because of course it is expensive so better to check the buffet table if they already refill it. Price is cheaper compared to other Buffet resto. Ambience is ok. Maybe they should also add more songs to their playlist. We just heared coldplay playing all over again the whole 1 and a hour we have been there. Lol

It's a fusion of Asian cuisine. The seafood is frozen, but there are many types and many ways to eat it, including hot pot, barbecue, sushi, and desserts. Can swipe card

Delicious, delicious, delicious. Fresh, great selection of all kinds of goodies. Very friendly and polite service. Price/performance is great. Authentic and absolutely recommended. Always my pleasure.

The food is very fresh and rich, the environment is very good, and the service attitude is very good 👍Recommended

Hotpot, grill and warm dishes, plus some cold starters and various sweets at a fair price. It can get relatively full and noisy, but even then the service remains good and the buffet is always well filled.

One of the most beautiful and most suitable open buffet restaurants for Chinese food in Dusseldorf. A wide variety of delicious Chinese food and dishes, including all kinds of seafood, meat and poultry, and for vegetarians, they have a large share of delicious and very diverse dishes, literally awesome and very, very delicious. You can fill your plate several times with whatever you desire, including hot, cold, or whatever you choose, and present it to the chef to grill, or have it brought to you on the table, such as lamb ribs or chicken breasts, and all types of marine fish. The place is very large and spacious, and there are tables overlooking the street, and there are several spacious indoor halls for those who like privacy. The treatment is very good, the service is good, the Aqua chairs are fixed and movable, suitable for children as well. An experience worth repeating and I recommend it

A great Chinese restaurant here with a delicious lunch buffet and dinner buffet. The buffet leaves nothing to be desired, and you can also have food grilled that you put together yourself. Hands off the peanuts, unfortunately we oversalted our food on the grill. The sauces for grilling are already salty. Enjoy your meal here, the service is very friendly and the toilets are clean.

If you can eat a lot and mostly seafood, the price is reasonable. If you are one of those people who get full quickly, you pay a very high price for it. Staff very friendly

Buffet but very good quality. Concept very good. Very friendly service. The boss takes care of something that is no longer a given today.

We recommend the fresh counter, which is then fried and served at the table.

Very expensive. Not good quality.

I visit the restaurant regularly with my family and we are always very satisfied. The food is fantastic and the service is incredibly good. Thank you for the delicious meals, the wonderful staff and your beautiful premises.

Very tasty, nice staff, good service

The experience of rushing to find the toilet at the Dusseldorf train station after eating made me never want to eat buffet hot pot again in my life.

Nice food and super tasty, fresh. There is not much for a service as it's a buffet. The atmosphere is also good but it's crowded even on Thursday.

I've visited China Star many times - I've had lunch there and ordered a buffet + paid 22 euros for a drink! I am convinced of the price-performance and am thrilled with everything from duck to shrimp and sushi, there is something for everyone! I would love to come back and can recommend it.

A very big Chinese buffet restaurant. You get exactly what it tells you it is. Various Chinese dishes served buffet style and you can go get what you like. Fresh seafood is cooked on request. I enjoyed it. It's not gourmet and that's ok as I didn't expect it to be. Just straight forward Chinese food and it is cooked well. The prawns were especially good

Unfortunately, our expectations were different from those created by the website. We arrived at 9:30 PM and expected that we would still be able to enjoy the full buffet. But unfortunately we were hit with the last scraps left and the employees were already clearing the buffet. We thought this was a shame, because on the website s It was indicated that the restaurant would be open until 11:00 PM. We got the feeling that we had to rush and could not have a quiet dinner. Too bad, we didn't expect this... The nice thing was that we had received a €15.90 discount. Because a normal evening buffet will cost €25.90. So we ended up paying €10 per person for the buffet, which was very nice for leftovers and no desert.

Nice Chinese restaurant. The service is very attentive and courteous, the food is very good. I can recommend the buffet, it is inexpensive and all Chinese delicacies are available.

One thing in advance: tastes are different and just because I felt that way doesn't mean that the food was completely bad. The service was great, really nice and personable. Unfortunately, the food wasn't my thing at all, there were a few things that I personally couldn't eat. But, as I have already written, that is my personal taste. The selection of dishes was good but the execution was not so good. For example, I absolutely didn't understand sushi with scallion cheese (?) on top. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I went out to eat with high expectations and was disappointed. Shortly after eating I also started to have stomach pains and later gastrointestinal problems. Maybe that was just a coincidence, but it wasn't that great.

I'm not satisfied too little selection too expensive a glass of cola €3.50 and the meal €29.90 in Lierenfeld €33 with drink and in Lierenfeld there is more choice once and never again at Grafenberg

I got there by chance and was absolutely pleasantly surprised. Price/performance mega correct. The food was very tasty and the service was great. Will definitely eat there again.

We really enjoyed our food today, there are many varieties and fresh food, only the hot pot that we ordered is not really my taste. The all you can eat restaurant is quite large and the atmosphere is modern.

Very cozy, staff polite and attentive. We came to their buffet on Saturday from 12:00. Everything is delicious and fresh. This place is definitely worth a visit. This was our first and not the last time.

Excellent Chinese restaurant on the principle of "pay to enter and eat as much as you want." In principle, very similar to the others. Very good selection of sushi and rolls. The grill is also open in the first half of the day!

Very bad personal, and speaking with all people very bad.

Delicious food, very friendly service, gladly again.😍

NEW: There's steak. That says it all. Finally full without endless additives. You don't need anything more. Just 4 steaks, a few lamb chops and you'll be full and stay healthy. Plus tea or water, of course. Of course everything is a bit oversalted. But always stay fair.

All you can eat 30.90€ Shabu pot add more 5 € Not include any drink No time limit

Fantastic food. Fresh produce as if straight from the market. Great service and friendly service. Always my pleasure. We recommend.

Nice place with beautiful buffet , differet type of food and dessert 🍨

An amazing Chinese restaurant with a great selection of dishes. Everything is really tasty 😋

very good and large selection of food, especially seafood. We come here to eat often, the quality is always good and the prices are fair.

We have been to this restaurant many times, but the last experience was subpar. Unfriendly staff, despite the buffet we had to wait a long time until someone came to us to take our drink order. The food was over salted, especially bad that there was a metal wire in our food! But we didn't complain about it because we discovered it in good time and it was hard to find any operating staff anyway. It was outrageous that the prices did not match the website information. When asked, only unfriendly comments were made, which was probably a typo by some guest. I'm sorry, what? That's what it says on your official homepage!

There are places that really improve over the years. I have to admit that I had to improve my review here. This restaurant has now become one of my favorite restaurants and where I like to go often. To start with, just a Chinese buffet. What was now overcrowded was a varied buffet with dishes that were really Chinese and not just what German men are used to from China. We can only recommend hot pot in this shop. And I have to say that with the long sushi counter that now exists, I could be fooled.

A well-equipped buffet, especially with freshly fried meat and especially fish. Sushi is ok, there is salmon sashimi and a few normal rolls. Overall, rather meat-heavy. The atmosphere is a bit too bright - I would hold a date somewhere else ;) You definitely get enough for the money to fill you up several times and the staff is extremely friendly. Since we were the last ones, we could also see that everything was meticulously cleaned here. If a dish had been empty, they would have even delivered more (especially for one person!). I would test the hot pot here next time, preferably with at least 4 people.

The food is fresh and extremely tasty. A special taste experience. Everything is cooked to perfection, thank you

One of the better Chinese buffets. Small but nice. Points here are the friendly, courteous and helpful staff. Well - the steak and seafood were great too!

Nice buffet restaurant, we liked everything!

They now have a steak area that is freshly cooked. I always eat perfectly here and as much as I want. It always tastes delicious! The staff and the boss are very friendly ;)

The price regulations are unclear, you always pay more than expected, no Chinese waiters, no discounts for schoolchildren or students.

If you don't want to ruin your day, then don't come here.

Very quiet, nice staff. Unfortunately the selection of food has decreased somewhat.

Great buffet selection, tasty and plentiful. Soup, sushi and several desserts, ready-made dishes and freshly prepared selections possible. Always happy again 😊
