China Star
THE SERVICE: The employee answering the phone provided good customer service. Making substitutions was seamless; my order was confirmed with the total and estimated pick up time. The pickup experience was standard. Friendly employee greeting customers once they arrived at the counter. Orders were tracked using the last 4 digits and or name. My order was ready at the designated time. THE ATMOSPHERE: Although I didn’t observe any signs indicating the restaurant was under construction, I felt as though I was entering an abandoned work zone. There’s an entire wall of plywood, and many tables are turned over discouraging dine in service. The floors, non-plywood walls, and especially the ceiling vents are in dire need of a deep cleaning. One could easily mistake themselves as entering an underground NYC subway station. The pickup counter has a protective plexiglass barrier supported by exposed pieces of lumber. The kitchen is visible. Food preparation stations were relatively tidy. I strongly encourage investing time into creating an inviting and clean waiting area. In addition to appropriate signage to address the condition of the establishment. THE FOOD: The shrimp fried rice was flavorful and tasted very good. I particularly enjoyed the contrasting textures with the onions and bean sprouts. The crab ragoon was cooked perfectly with a very satisfying creamy filling. Both items were the standout bites- above average inviting further exploration of the menu. The boneless spareribs were meaty but fell short on flavor, and were a tough chew. The chicken fingers had a nice light coating, but the meat was overcooked and dry. THE VALUE: Prices and quantity align with their counterparts. However, most Chinese restaurants add a complimentary homemade duck sauce; this restaurant charges an additional fee.
Highly recommended. Good price. Friendly service from staff. Good food. Bought today. Mapo tofu and sweet and sour chicken are both very good. Reviews are not trustworthy. Come and try it yourself to know how good it is. Worth a try
