I was very disappointed with the Sesame Chicken. I don't understand how it's their 2nd most favorite dish. Even though it's a good portion, their version is more like BBQ sauce instead of the sweet honey glaze I expected. Plus, the chicken was very tough and stringy, and I was unable to eat it.
I did like having an option for my rice. From the picture, you can't tell that it is pork fried rice since none are showing, but it did have a surprising amount of pork pieces in it. The rice was pretty good.
The Crab Rangoon was very creamy, and I could see red specks, which I took to be representative of imitation crab. but there was no crab taste, nor did the filling have any texture other than the cream cheese.
I also got "Fired Dumplings," though I imagine they meant fried. They had a good taste. The sauce container was hardly larger than a quarter, but I didn't like how spicy it was.
I loved the egg drop soup! Not greasy, and it was full of egg and very flavorful.

The food is always amazing! The beef and broccoli is a family favorite. Sweet and sour chicken is soooo good! And they give you nice size portions.we order at least once a month, and over the years they have always been consistently delicious.

Everything was delicious! The C16.Orange Chicken was crispy and flavorful, the 22.Hot & Sour Soup had the perfect balance, and I loved having both the General Tso's Sauce and Red Sauce on the side. The portions were generous—definitely worth the price. I’ll absolutely be ordering again! I ordered arrived hot and fresh.

I ordered D13.Egg Foo Young with pork fried rice, a side of Red Sauce, and spring 3.Spring Roll(4) and everything was excellent! The egg foo young was flavorful and perfectly cooked, tender pork pieces. The fried rice was fresh, not greasy, and paired really well with the rich red sauce on the side. The spring rolls were hot, crispy, and packed with flavor—definitely a great addition to the meal.

we had a good size order and everything was delicious . China star has remained consistant with the quality, portions and taste of their food over the years. also best chicken noodle soup in town broth is very flavorful and fragrant. it really is like homemade soup. I buy it on cold days and when I'm feeling a little ill.
Good job China Star.
