Fortune Star Buffet

Well when I originally heard about the new Chinese place in Butler I was a little skeptical. Why? Well western PA and GOOD Chinese food never really line up. There are more than a few places that sell Chinese but the mom and pop Chinese places never really stack up against the higher end places in say Downtown Pittsburgh. But Fortune Star proved me wrong. First of all notice that that "Chinese" is not in the name. That is a good thing Morning Star Buffet has more than just Americanized Chinese Food.

First off lets talk about the Buffet.
HOLY SHIT! This is the type of selection and price that make your mouth drop open. The Buffet contains a dazzling array of items and if you are that guy in the group who doesn't like Chinese your still in for a treat! beside the General So Chicken there are Chicken Nuggets, beside the Pork Fried Rice there are French Fries, beside the Egg Rolls there are Pizza. Its also one of the only Asian Style Buffets that has soup 4 different kinds too! One of these again is for the faint of heart (Chicken Noodle).

Now once you are blown away by the selection how is the food?
AMAZING!
I must say Fortune Star sets the new golden standard for Asian Food!
Almost everything was so above par!
All of the Chinese Food is amazing. We are talking mouth orgasm amazing.
The American food was hit or miss.
BEST FOOD ITEM: Cheese Dumpling
Holy Crap I LOVE THESE THINGS!
Imagine a cheese danish fresh from the oven! i just explodes awesome cheesy goodness into your mouth!

WORST FOOD ITEM:Cheesecake
Why? well its not cheesecake? Seriously I was with three other people and we couldn't figure out what the hell it tasted like. I said crappy Cheesecake, Another said banana, the third said peanut butter pie. Like I said is truly the most perplexing thing ever. That really frightens me!

NOTABLE ITEM:
Wonderful Chicken
Probably the best fried chicken variation I have ever had!
I tastes like someone took honey and sweet and sour sauce mixed them together and pored it on chicken and fried that in a skillet. Oh god its awesome.

Second how is the atmosphere?
AMAZING! Everything works! You can almost taste Asian Culture in the restaurant! From the walls, to the booths, to the tables it all just fits! Damn Good Work!

Third whats the price?
$7.80 lunch
$10.80 Dinner

Good Right?

FINAL IMPRESSIONS:
Amazing atmosphere and amazing service a large spread of Amazing food and not to mention the excellent service and the price! A must visit for people in Butler County!

5 out of 5!
