China Star Buffet - Pearland
 
Loading Image...
 
We’ve all seen the sign and wondered when it was coming…Well, the wait is just about over. Interior renovations and construction are almost complete on what will be the new China Star restaurant opening in Pearland. Located at 10009 Broadway (STE 109), and conveniently close to a 24HR Fitness Emoticon, the new hibachi grill and sushi buffet will likely be open before the end of April.
 
I had a chance to sit down with China Star's owners (and two of the nicest people you'll ever meet) Sally & Min this past weekend to get the skinny on what Pearland can expect from this asian eatery…

Although new to Pearland, China Star restaurants have several other successful locations scattered about the Houston area. Min, with over 20 years in the food service industry, opened the couple’s first China Star location on North Freeway back in 2009 and never looked back. He spent many years developing and perfecting every single sauce that China Star uses today. They use non-GMO ingredients, everything is cooked fresh EVERY day, and they make it a point to order the highest quality food they can, even if that means using specialty vendors. And the attention to detail doesn’t stop in the kitchen with Min either…Sally also takes a very hands-on approach to making sure their restaurants are serving the best food possible, like refreshing an entree according to quality rather than waiting for some textbook expiration time. I found their concern for a great product genuine and refreshing, and one that most other places would bypass…Especially if they were offering 80+ items like China Star is/will be.
 

I also asked them how they chose Pearland for their next location. It turns out that several Pearlanders played a big part in it. After the Healthy Chinese Buffet closed in the same location, Sally and Min received multiple inquiries from Pearland residents to open one of their China Star restaurants here. Well, the collective “HELP…We want a better buffet in Pearland!” cry worked. They got to work right away on securing the location and bringing China Star to us. Emoticon
 
Since they’re not quite open yet, I took a drive up to one of their other locations on 45 & 610 to test out the food…And Emoticon !! Being the foodie (and big guy) that I am, I’ve had my fair share of buffets. Some are terrible, others are just ok…But China Star is definitely head and shoulders above the rest. Their sushi bar alone is worth it. If they put the same product out in our Pearland location as what I had for lunch this weekend, they’re going to do just fine.

Something else that came up while talking with them: There is not a set menu across all their restaurants, which I thought was good. They constantly watch what is most popular at each location and make adjustments accordingly. The new Pearland location will be no different, and they encourage customers to let them know what they like and don’t like about the food.
 
China Star - Pearland is looking to fill some employment spots still, so those interested should call 346 818 1888 and/or email their resume HERE!!

I can't wait! We live really close and we love a good Chinese buffet. We often have our grandkids and they love it too. I haven't eaten at a China Star but I've heard only good things about their other locations.

I knew y'all would be excited...As am I. Emoticon
 
I wish I could tell you they're opening on 4/27..or 4/28..or whatever date, but there is a permit still unaccounted for from the city. They are expecting it this week, but I can't publish an opening date and be wrong. I just told them we'd play it safe with a "likely.. ..end of April" and make an update, if need be, when the time came. Emoticon

Drove by today, hours of operation are posted on the front door
and I did not see any contractors vehicles out front again lol.
 
Temped to apply there 50% so ill know the opening date and 50% for the food and
delicious smells of course. ..I live close enough, perhaps I can walk to and from to combat the guilt of what i am very confident will be the delicious cuisine! (Can't hide my excitement- won't try!)
 
BUT I've heard when you work at a food place you know longer desire to eat at said establishment since you know all ye behind the scenes scoop ..so maybe I won't apply, don't want to ruin it
 
See yall at the buffet!
