After chasing my order and being told it was on it's way I called again 30 minutes later and was told after some confusion their end that they didn't have my order and wouldn't offer any help, I did not appreciate being made to feel like I was lieing. After over an hour had passed they called to say they had received my order, I refused the order as by that time I had eaten. There was no apology and they told me I would have to request a refund from another company. The order was placed through their own website which appears to order via a delivery service.

Myself and my husband have just moved into the Lowestoft area, and ordered from China Star on a recommendation from a friend. We ordered via JustEat, and we spent around £90 on food for 7 people as a little moving in treat to celebrate our new home. I have to say, I was blown away by how tasty everything was. I myself had a portion of pork fried rice, sweet and sour sauce, chips and some satay chicken. It was honestly, one of the best Chinese Takeaways I've ever had. They even threw in some free spiced chicken, which was absolutely delicious! I'll definitely be using them again in the near future.

Quite possibly the worst Chinese Iv ever tasted? I'm not sure what the duck was but it's most defiantly NOT duck and had a funky smell 🤢 #dogmeat Waited over hour and 40 minutes for £50 food order that was binned. Rung up to complain and got told 'oh Iv never had a complaint before' my arse they ain't. Stay away please....

Ordered through just eat and happened to look on the Google page. Shocked by the reviews I didn’t have high hopes but I truly enjoyed this Chinese. Delivered in 30 mins (Sunday evening) Not the best Chinese I’ve ever had but the food was warm, tasty and comes in large portions. Would order again!

First and last time ordering from here. Soggy chips, chicken balls and prawn toast. Prawn crackers missing. Extremely slow delivery and the majority of the dishes completely tasteless.

Most probably the worst Chinese I’ve ever had. The food quality was horrendous. The ribs were fatty and looked like they had been through a blender. Everything had a ridiculous amount of onions in and all had the same flavour. The sweet and sour chicken was just slices of roasted chicken with cheap sweet and sour sauce on top, no vegetables, pineapple etc. I wouldn’t reorder, I’m actually really surprised with all the 5* reviews on Just eat. It was actually horrific and not edible. Please do not order from here, it was cheaply made, taste was awful, complete unappetising.

Waited for over 2 hours for delivery and when it arrived it was absolutely minging. Everything just tasted of salt and was virtually inedible. Will definitely not be using again, disgusting waste of £50

I really don't understand why there are so many bad reviews? We have ordered from this place a number of times over the years and have always found the food to be excellent. It's always fresh and delicious with large servings given. They have a great range of vegetarian dishes and their mock meats are really delicious. So far we can't fault China Star.

Always at least a 2 hour wait for delivery, I understand they are busy but try using more delivery drivers like other business's do. On the flip side the food is always piping hot 🔥 and of great quality well worth the wait imo. I can highly recommend the Singapore chow mein with sauce and the salt and pepper chips. Mmmmm to die for ! We have learnt to order at least 1.5 hours before you require it or just go and collect it.

Ordered at 7.05 said if was going to be a hour, fair enough, so, 8.30, no Chinese, ring them up for them to tell me they had a new chef and to be patient, it's on its way, 8.55 finally arrives, curry sauce was more like curry sludge and food was lukewarm at best, never use again, be warned.

Leaving my review because the current review seems negatively misleading, especially since we saw the rating is much better on just-eat. Ordered egg fried rice, chicken chow mein, happy family, kung po chicken, and chips, and ALL was really nice. Delivered bang on time to our campsite! Even got FREE chicken wings! Def use again.

We ordered our food at 6.16pm and still no food at 8.40pm so I rang them to say cancel our order; I was told our order was on it's way and we were told to tell the driver we would cancel,no driver arrived!!!! . The guy was very defensive and put the phone down on me. Needless to say no delivery driver arrived

I found that the customer service was lacking with the age group serving (Youngest being no more than 12) and dealing with complaints. I brought more than one item at the stall and only complained about one item which did not taste right, did get replacement, which I was happy with till the same item I complaint about was still not right. But was told I was wrong and they wouldn’t do anything else. I don’t believe I spoke to anyone over age of 16.

The Pakefield Morrisons Cafe is like that in Cromer and others we have tried to eat in recently. They are dirty, under staffed, what staff they do have are gormless and not interested in having customers. They can never offer a full menu and often the equipment is out of action. Years ago these were very good value and under rated. Now they are to be avoided like the plague , dreadful depressing places. Do us all a favour Morrisons and close them down.
