I'm giving two stars based on transactions because food is great but why was my card charged more than the actual bill. If I want to tip I will but don't be adding money when it's definitely not warranted. This is called fraud please don't do it again and all be cautious to look at what you're actually paying for but from now on I'll just use cash! read more

Spent $50 for dinner tonight. Chicken chow mein, qt of hot and sour soup, crab Rangoon and pu- pu platter. There was one small bag of noodles for soup and chow mein. No sauces at all. Here's what the pu-pu platter came with: mushy tempura shrimp, meat wontons, chicken sticks, 2 ribs, 2 rolls, 2 chicken wings. Photo below indicates what I ordered and didn't receive. When I called the store to let them know about the problems, the woman I spoke to insisted that they didn't post the menu as I had ordered it. Below is the picture from their website. Awful food and worse customer service. read more

China Star - Menu from China star website - Chinese Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Best Chinese food around!! Even their crab rangoons are perfect! It is a little bit of a drive for us but worth it!!

The food was absolutely great! Was prepared quickly. Noodles were fantastic! Friendly service.

After ten months I once again ordered egg foo young take out. However, this time I got it with vegetables. Was disappointed to discover the only vegetable was onions. Guess my cravings for some Chinese vegetables will not be satisfied today. Meal was hot and fresh. Combo went up 20% in price since last visit. Veggies would have added a star to this review. Note that the restaurant listing stated the store was closed but at 4pm on a Friday in late August it was open. read more

China Star - Vegetable egg foo young - Chinese Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

This is my go to Chinese restaurant that reminds me of the northeast. I always get the C2 which is a combination place that has steak, onions, green peppers and rice. Their egg roll is really good that I order more since they are that good. I have tried other Chinese food restaurant but this one brings me back when I use to live in Massachusetts. The place is small but they are very nice and the service is good. read more

The food is always very hot and good to eat, service was quick - not many people were waiting or ordering. Enough light to see menu and order unless u r familiar with area they are at an awkward location. read more

Good food, various flavors of wings. Kind of pricey in comparison to other Chinese cuisine I've had in the area.

Food is good, hot, beware when ordering when has peppers beside food item. One pepper is spicy 2..3 peppers it's very spicy. Overall recommended. read more

Tried them out again today. Mumbo Wings and the MooGooGaiPan Combo with pork fried rice. Note to self: Always get the wings with the sauce on the side. The eggroll was delicious but I would have liked to have seen more meat in it. The wings were delicious. The MooGooGaiPan was good. Loved the fresh vegetables and sauce was yummy. The fried rice was good. Missing some more pork. Overall good experience. read more

6/152018 The quality of food has gone downhill. Everything that was our favorite is just average now. The crab Rangoon are still good but we're almost white instead of brown. The new dish we ordered; pineapple chicken. Simply not good. So sorry to see this happen! We are unfortunately moving on. read more

I was planning to order some food nearby but the place I was going to call was closed today so I decided to try China Star instead. I ordered Hunan Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken because I couldn't decide. I tried some of both and they're really good. The portions are pretty large so I've still got more than a meal left over for later. I'll definitely be a regular from now on. read more

Went today and ordered Beef & Broccoli, and a rib appetizer. Having recently moved just up the road, I was really hoping the food would be good. Unfortunately, the beef and broccoli was so salty, I a ate only a few bites. The rice was way over cooked and was almost mushy. The ribs looked great but really had no flavor to speak of. The restaurant was clean and the staff was very friendly. I really wish the food was better. It wasn't very busy but maybe I caught them at a bad time, I don't know, but I won't be back. read more

The atmosphere is dry, but what I ordered was great. I ordered the shrimp egg fu yung, crab ragoon, shrimp pai thai, house fried rice, and egg rolls. Egg fu yung awesome, shrimp pa thai was grood and not too spicy but flavorable, noodle could be larger. I love their house rice with peas, carrots, onion and all three meats, state egg, and shrimp egg rolls was cook nicely crispy and filling. I have never sat in, but always called in. I call way ahead because there is all ways a wait. Please be prepared for it. But the food is good. This place had taken me back when i first started eating great food like this. Don't miss the opportunity, you will thank me later. read more

Best we've found in the area! Love their crab Rangoon & the Szechuan beef. Decent portions!

This is my favorite local Chinese and bonus it's right down the road from my house. They are a family business. Friendly and efficient. Food is always consistent. Thank you!! read more

China Star - General Tso Chicken Combo - Chinese Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

This place. THIS PLACE! I don't know how I lucked into having two good Chinese restaurants this close together, but I am honestly not going to question it. First, this place has the best egg rolls I've tasted in the past 10 years. Crispy. Delicious. No extra residual grease or oil, and perfect spicing. Second, everything here is a cut above the other Chinese restaurants in the take-out category, and will unfortunately lower my previous favorite to a four star, on update. Third (And this is best part): They offer off-menu specials (like sauced wings), Thai dishes (like pad thai, and spicy basil with chicken), and Hibachi Steak and Chicken! All the good stuff in one stop. I ordered my usual test: Sesame Chicken platter with fried rice and egg roll. Fried Dumplings. And a side order of egg rolls. A couple things will hit you here, the first being the rice... It's cooked perfectly, and unlike any other you've had in the area: Soft, flavorful, with a bit of oil from cooking that makes it even more flavorful, but still NOT GREASY. There's some left-handed magic going on here, and I don't care to know how they obtained the secret. It'sdelicious. The sauce on the sesame chicken was light and flavorful, while keeping the chicken crispy.... And it didn't turn into gum after the chicken cooled. The dumplings were lightly fried, and sauced with what I think was a sweet and sour/fish sauce blend with scallions. Amazing. Not the usual dark, soy sauced based dipping ingredients. The egg rolls: I mentioned them earlier. 10 out of 10. The true test - LEFTOVERS. Ate all of these the next day, after overnight refrigeration. The egg rolls were still crispy, without tasting like rancid oil. Sesame chicken was still fantastic, as were the dumplings. Bottom Line: Get down here. I'm going to try as much as I can afford. The new King of East Coast Chinese takeout (and possibly other Asian foods --- Finger's crossed) in the area. Extra: I noticed something on the menu called "mambo sauce", which is evidently a favorite in D.C. restaurants. They offer it on wings, on shrimp, on everything imaginable. And in talking with the owners, I found out that they are from D.C. And my love for D.C. (and the sadly closed Mr. Chen's Organic Chinese) is well known. Praise Jesus! We are being invaded by big city cuisine. read more

I found China Star through DoorDash. I decided to give them a try. My first time ordering we got the dragon and phoenix which is half general tso's chicken and half seafood in a white sauce. Chicken was good but spicy and hot something I can't eat. When they say hot and spicy they mean it! However, the seafood was fishy and not good at all. It went in the trash. My husband got the four seasons which he liked, but didn't love. We also ordered the crispy potstickers which were really good and the dipping sauce was amazing! Two spring rolls, crispy and not greasy, and 2 egg rolls typical taste. Overall for what it costed it wasn't worth it to me. However, my husband loves spicy food and finished my general tso's chicken and fell in love with it. We ordered again from there and I got the bourbon street chicken which was ok, sauce was thin and kind of underwhelming. Hubbs got the General Tso and ate every bit. Will we order again? yeah, but I need to find my go to dish like my husband has, so far none have hit the mark with me. so 4 stars because my husband liked it and the egg rolls were good. read more

I just left this place 10mins ago! My first time there. The lady is rude! Bad customer service! It's one this to barely no English. But, everyone who a workable hand know how to at least wave hi. I said hi to her and she just said " ". than I had to ask for some damn napkins! Never going back! read more

First time trying China Star. We ordered Cashew Chicken, Mumbo Wings, Crab Rangoon, Egg Rolls and a quart of Egg Drop Wonton Soup. The Cashew Chicken had more celery than cashews, but it was good. The rice that came with the order was good. I tried to order the Mumbo Wings with sauce on the side (as other reviewers suggested), but I was told that would be $1.00 extra. Not wanting to pay extra, I got the wings sauced. They were good, but really messy. Some of the wings were large and others were incredibly small. I would not order them again because of the inconsistency in size. The Crab Rangoon were good, cooked perfectly and the filling was just right. The Egg Rolls were another story. They were the smallest egg rolls I've ever had at a Chinese restaurant. Even smaller than spring rolls. For the price they charged, 2-3 of these should have constituted an order. I would not recommend wasting your money on them. The soup was good, but had only three dumplings and one very small bag of fried noodles. I expected at least 4 dumplings and two bags of fried noodles for a a quart of soup. Will we go back again, maybe. I'll need to try other places in the neighborhood before giving them a second chance. read more

This place cost way too much money for the quality and the amount of food that you get.

Found this place because I was tired of all the other Chinese restaurants in Raleigh. There's always those special Chinese restaurants that make their food a little different than the rest, This is one of those places. China Star has the typical items most other Chinese restaurants have but with a their own flare to it. The shining dish here is the crispy garlic chicken. The cuts of chicken are plump and not over breaded. read more

$75 worth of food and no free soda and got the wrong food. I wont lie they r usually on point but they coulda hooked a drink up.

Best Chinese food in the area and cleanest This is the only place I go to all the other Chinese restaurants have below 95s and take forever to get your food read more

They don't wear mask. The food is terrible. The customer service is terrible. Please stay away from this restaurant. You will catch food poisoning. read more

I went there for the first time last week. I got two egg rolls, moo goo gai pan, wanton soup and four chicken wings. The food was good but it didn't really stand out from the typical Chinese restaurants like Wang's, both serving pretty much the same items on their menu. I did enjoy the flavor of the mggp. The vegetables we're not flimsy and there was an even mixture of onions, chicken, celery, and mushrooms. The white sauce was flavorful and blended well with my white rice. I did notice one thing I didn't care for. As I waited for my order, I see a big cardboard box of wonton noodles sitting under the table completely exposed. Anything could get in that open box. Right at the moment, it's not a place that could keep me as a regular customer. read more

Big fan of this place. Rarely ate Chinese food for years due to there not being any good places nearby. I eat here at least twice a month. The pineapple chicken is especially good. The food always taste fresh. read more

We were looking for a new place and I yelped Chinese and this came up. Decided to drive a few extra minutes to get there. Place was spotless and food was delicious. We ate in and they brought out each plate as it finished so everything was nice and hot.. each item followed right behind so there was not any wait. The owner came to check on us and we mentioned it was our first time and I showed her the yelp app. Her daughter showed us they were in the area coupon book. Very very nice. Will make the drive from Knightdale for this place! read more

Great EVERYTIME !! Great prices and an awesome selection. The food is fresh EVERYTIME and they put the sauce on the side of our General Tso's just how we like it so that it's crunchy and not soggy. I love the crunch! We don't go anywhere else for Chinese food! read more

...except it is too good to be true. There is a dentist office in unit 110 and a cheap walk-up Chinese over by the grocery store. We checked it out due to good reviews, but ended up back in Garner with unmet Asian craving! We are spoiled from years in DC 'burbs with nice affordable sit-down Asian dining. Cary cannot be the only place to go - not even sure if what we want is there... read more
