Item 3.01             Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On January 13, 2011, Star Buffet, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (‘Nasdaq”).  In the letter, Nasdaq stated that the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of the Company's common stock had been below the minimum market value $1 million for the last 30 consecutive business days and the Company therefore is not in compliance with the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares for Continued Listing set forth in Marketplace Rule 5810(b).  The notification of noncompliance has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
 
The Company has been provided 180 calendar days, or until July 12, 2011, to regain compliance with the minimum market value requirement.  To regain compliance, the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of the Company's common stock must meet or exceed $1 million for at minimum of ten consecutive business days during the 180-day grace period.
