Being very generous by giving 3 stars . The sesame chicken was quite dry and a bit tough (overcooked) . I ordered it through Doordash so by the time I got it, it was cold which I won’t blame on the restaurant but that definitely effected the overall quality . Rice was fine . The taste itself of the chicken was just offputting, first time eating here and I was very let down . Would have loved to see a thicker, more flavorful sauce along with a crispier breading on chicken without the dryness .
Best Chinese around. Very consistent. I love their honey walnut chicken. It’s so crispy and fresh even when getting takeout. Their hot and sour soup is amazing and is also very consistent.
Customer service was OK, the food, however, did not meet my expectations on taste. Based on what this facility charges, I assumed I was going to get a decent portion. The portion on all the meals was very small, considering that I bought a triple delight that had very little to no meat or chicken and only to shrimps. I’m personally not amazed by so I doubt I’ll be visiting this location again.
Stopped in because I saw they were nominated for best Chinese food in the city by Gannett (the Dispatch). Though I have no idea what they found so appealing about it when I walked out of the restaurant. We arrived on a weekday around 3pm and were seated by a hostess (or so we thought). It turns out she was also our waitress and we heard her working the bar too. In fact, as far as we could tell, there were only two people there - one working the back (who played with his phone when he didn't have any cooking to do) and one working the front. As you can imagine, that proved hectic. Despite ordering the Szechuan chicken, I was brought Sesame. By the time I was able to get the hostess/ waitress/ bartender's attention, my dining partners were more than halfway through their meal. They got the correct food, but neither one of my companions were especially keen on the taste. I ended up taking the majority of my meal home with me. For $55, I'm pretty sure I'm never going back. Asian Star is more pocket friendly, the food tastes better, and they're closer to my house. Three stars. Barely.
So my husband and I went here for lunch and This is my 3 year olds favorite place to eat, well she has autism. She does throw food on the floor and we try as best as we can to pick up what she throws. We were asked not to come back unless we get takeout. Our server was very polite but the person that sat us down. I don’t know if she’s the owner what not she was rude and she was the one that said we were not allowed to us dine in anymore only take out.
I last had this delicious Chinese food in 2020, and again just a few days ago. The General Tso's Shrimp is still just as fresh, slightly spicy, and perfect. I always dine in, and that is all I can recommend. Always courteous staff. Consistently delicious food. I am looking forward to having a delicious lunch or dinner here, again!
The food is great but if you have children especially autistic children, you are not welcome here we were told that we can no longer eat inside because of my autistic daughter threw some food on the floor on the way out she told us just take out from now on and we are no longer welcome to eat inside. This was my daughters favorite place in the world to eat and you just took that from her because she has a disability if you have any family or friends that have autism boycott this place
Ordered takeout, so I can't really speak to the service, except to say that my food was ready before I arrived. The best part of the meal was the limonchello-like sauce provided with the asparagus wraps. It was delicious!!!!!
