New Star Restaurant
It was explained to me that there are half a dozen restaurants or so in the Idaho falls area that are owned by the same group of friends and family. It was recommended that I go to one of them and try a dish called pork and seeds. Chinese BBQ pork served cold with a side of ketchup, hot mustard, and sesame seeds. After looking online a little bit, I found that it's a regional dish of Idaho. Never seen it while living in Utah or any other state. Stop at this restaurant around 1:30. The hostess was also the server. The restaurant was clean had and fish tank. They had a lunch menu which seemed very reasonable and that is what we ordered off of. The food came out fairly quick We ordered the pork and seeds as an appetizer. The appetizer came out well ahead of the meal which was nice. The pork was very good. The dish was better than I expected, I would probably order it again when in Idaho. Entrees were hot and fresh. My wife ordered Mandarin chicken with chow mein, the waitress explained that it came with celery and asked if that was okay which it was. When it arrived at the table we realized that the side was two parts celery for every one part chow mein. it was still good but it was surprising just how much celery they put on the plate. I would go to this restaurant again. It's not a fancy Chinese restaurant, but it's a great price and it's in a good location
I am honestly so glad this place is good, it's the only one in the area without having to get on the highway and go to another town. I think with the food the only reason the the dropped star is just little things that make the food better, I feel the egg drop soup could have more substance, and the fortune cookies often come with no fortune kind of things, so nothing major. Everything here tastes really good, and the fried items have a really nice crisp to them.
