Red Star Chinese Restaurant

Told food would be ready in 45 minutes. Took almost 2 hours. When I got home the dry garlic ribs had 90% batter on the bone with a little fat and nearly no meat on any of the ribs. I was told Red Star was one of the better places to go and that prices were higher but food was worth it. Those ribs were absolutely disgusting. The rest of the food was mediocre at best. People don’t waste your time. This place just gives me another reason to keep cooking at home.

I had ordered a scheduled pickup an hour in advance. I got there on time and found out it was a 30 minute extra wait. I was never told where I was able to sit down and wait. During the 30 minutes I was asked to prepay and pretip and my name 4 times but was never offered any water nor updated on the status of my order.

Pretty awful when you spend over $100 and they can't even offer you water. Hope the owner has a conversation with their staff about service. Wish I could refund my tip.

Oh and the cherry on top? We even found plastic stickers still stuck to their produce in our meals.

The service was top notch! Mary was so lovely and prompt! The food was absolutely delicious! Thank you

Not very happy with the portions very small. Not very good. Never get my food there again.

Good food but they changed take out packaging which has resulted in smaller portions.sneaky

I am a foodie from Vancouver BC, heart of all good places to eat. When I tried this place, I wasn't expecting much but couldn't break my craving for dim sum and since it's snowing, I don't wanna make the drive to Calgary or Edmonton. To my amazement, this place was just as good as any other dim sum place in vancouver/richmond. The dumplings were packed full of shrimp/meat.the rice rolls were silky soft and the flavors were perfect.

Would be nice to hand out chopsticks esp since im asian but im sure other customers would like the option for chopsticks. The ho fan noodle dish needed more flavor but otherwise rated 6 out of 10. All dim sum dishes I tried were about 8.5/9 out of 10. Loved the fresh fish roe and tripe was very tasty. Tea was on par. The menu could also use some Chinese description.

The decor and organization in the restaurant could use some cleaning up and some background music would be nice. Glad and grateful this restaurant is here though.

Thanks for the wonderful service and food! Will be coming back:)

Went in, wrote down order and went to the bathroom. When I got out my table was taken and they threw my order out

Best chines in Red Deer! Been this restaurant for many many years and always great with everything.

We usually go there to eat. For five of us it came to $100. The food was horrible soggy ginger fried beef. It has gone down hill.

Giant delicious portions of Chinese food. Been coming here for 10 years and it’s always been like that

Went for Christmas day Chinese food! Yes, it was busy with many takeout orders and in house guests but our server apologized multiple times for the delay. She made sure we got our appetizers right away, re-filled our tea (loose leaf jasmine tea, so lovely), and our waters regularly. When the food arrived, WOW! So delicious, warm and flavourful. Very high quality with an authentic look and taste. The salty squid was real pieces of cut squid, not the tubules you see at most Chinese food restaurants. Very impressed and satisfied, mouth is watering.will go back again!

My food was burnt and over cooked payed $54.64 and the food was garbage dragon city has better food food is also over priced food at red star was so gross

Ordered fried rice and mixed meat tofu hotpot. I was disappointed. Firstly there is no utensils or napkins with the order, even though I asked for it. Secondly, there is no single piece of meat in the tofu hotpot. They must be very busy.

Ordered delivery on a very cold, windy day. The food arrived early, very hot and fresh. Wonderful meal. The driver was very friendly and courteous. Will definitely order from this establishment again! Excellent value for cost!

Took almost an hour to receive our order but it's worth it. Very impressed by the dim sum, rare to find a good restaurant for dim sum in Red Deer.

We arrived at 1pm, and was surprised how quiet it was at first. We orderered multiple dishes of dim sum expecting average food. Congee arrive within 15 minute from ordering and first few spoonfulls we were suprised at how it was seasoned perfectly with perfect consistency. Next our shrimp dumpling, chicken feet, shumai, lotus wrapped rice and shrimp crepe followed few minutes later and again we were surprised how fresh and delicious everything was. My wife and I grew up eating all shorts of dimsum restaurants in calgary and this restaurants quality of dim sum was on par with some of the best in calgary. The serves was perfect, waitress checked in on us consistently taking our dishes away and even filling our tea cup for us. Towards the end of the meal she gave us a chinese calander to thank us for coming. All in all very impressed with this restaurant and would recommend for the good quality of dimsum.

Being from Toronto, I desperately miss heading to China Town on a Sunday morning for dim sum and char siu bao. I am happy to have found this place and It reminds me of home. The food is so delicious and the atmosphere is fantastic.

6 stars Dim Sum. We always go there when in red deer.
Good fast service. If dim sum is what you craving this is the place.
Price is reasonable. Authentic taste. Great variety. Highly recommended.

We ordered take out after one of our party recommended this restaurant. We ordered 5 dishes and the bill was $83 before tip. We had Ginger beef, Special egg foo yong, sweet and sour pork, Shanghai noodles, and dry garlic spare ribs. The noodles were good, the ginger beef and pork were ok but not great, the egg foo yong was burnt on the bottom and the dry ribs were the worst I've ever had. Maybe 1 piece in 5 had some meat on it, the rest were just battered bone and gristle. The ribs were garbage. I would recommend staying away from this place.
