Dreadful, was told 90 minutes for delivery which is fine Christmas eve is busy that's ok but waited 2 hours and still nothing. Phoned which was answered by a child (completely unprofessional) only to be told they were only now cooking my order would then have to get it out for delivery no sorry not good enough

What can I say that’s good. I ordered the food over 3 hours ago and it was only just delivered, I spoke to the store which someone answered who was ridiculously unprofessional and rude. Food was missing but was “made up” with a free chicken meal with couldn’t be described much better than baby food. The food was all extremely greasy. I get it’s Christmas but a 3 hour wait when I could have had the same service at KFC and it would have cost me 1/3 the price is crazy

5 star meal and service. Ordered 2 veg curries plus chips. Was told there would be a 60 min wait but was actually only 45 mins. Our food was delivered piping hot and with free spring rolls. 2 delicious meals delivered for under £20, what's not to like?

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 was so happy to see that Papa John's do gluten-free now! Ordered a ham & pineapple pizza and was very confident about the safety of the food when I saw a guideline on the wall about how to prepare GF orders, the man who made my pizza tonight was absolutely perfect! Every element of the pizza is gorgeous and it's so reasonably priced too. My partner didn't get a GF pizza and there was absolutely no cross contamination at all despite being on the same order, my stomach is so happy 🥰 Will definitely be a regular from now on!

We were looking for somewhere to have lunch as we were having a boat trip on the Wavely. Found this place. Well the first thing that greeted you was the smell of chip fat. We did not know the area and time was short, we went in and ordered two jacket potatoes (good quality potatoes however Luke warm on arrival, I also ordered a tea and a black coffee with milk on the side(a simple enough drink), however when it came it was a shot of coffee and a jug of milk I took it back and asked for it to be filled up with HOT water, this again was tepid. by now I had given up. (I will give the girl the benefit of the doubt with Black coffee) perhaps I should have said Americano. Last but not least I asked how much the cake cost (which looked as if it had been in the display containers for a long time) by the time it was passed to three of the youngsters (from me to you a bit like the Chuckle Brothers)!! I gave up. A place I certainly would not recommend.

TERRIBLE quality food ! Lemon chicken batter was soggy. Egg fried rice was mushy and bland with hardly any egg. Would not purchase anything from this restaurant again.

This absolutely no chicken in my median kebab hardly no sauce... Absolutely terrible for £12 I've got nothing to eat other than a bit of bread. And the man that delivered can't speak a word of English and then I've been also taken for a ride for £2. So it cost me £14 and I got nothing to show for it I'm just going to put it in the bin.
