Yet again, service was kind and courteous- fast dining in. Clean. This time we ordered miso soup (loaded with fresh seaweed and tofu; nice creamy clear broth). Paired that with the seaweed salad (very filling!) topped with sesame- SO GOOD. Side of "boiled rice" aka fluffy white jasmine done American style; had the sweet jasmine undertone, not bland. My daughter got the pork lo mien platter- she ate every bit of it! FRESH PORK- tender, no gamey taste, delicious. Had caramelized onions, crisp sprouts, thick noodles. Egg roll was traditional and jam-packed with fresh cabbage, etc. Pretty sure this is Oolong tea- deep, with lighter floral tones, earthy. Overall Excellent quality comparable to Chinatown in Phi read more

I got takeout, to start. Prices are a bit... eh. It's okay. My order, personally? The Walnut Shrimp? Somehow, the shrimp was burnt when it was battered and fried... but thats my only complaint. It used to be worthy of the name a couple years ago, but when they changed management it went down in quality. read more

I can't even begin to explain how fresh and delicious this place's food is. And don't get me started on their amazing service, I've never been waited on so immaculately. Definitely making a point to come here as often as possible. read more

They could not add bean sprouts to the rice for my special combination platter. A simple request, they will not do. If the rice is being cooked, I don't understand why they could not just add bean sprouts. They refused to and said this restaurant is under new ownership, which I don't understand why that has anything to do with it. read more

The food is ok. It used to be much better. Their customer service is lacking. The "manager" is quite rude and offers no help when they make a mistake with your order. He did promise a partial refund, but that never came to fruition. Better to just go one of the many other options in the area. ​ read more

Food was great cooked perfectly portion size just right everything was ready earlier then expected will return again

I can't agree with 5star restaurant with its name, but 2 star is more suitable. We arrived here 35 mins before closing which I guess is never a good idea. We ordered shrimp fried rice and vegetable Lo Mein and some spring rolls. I didn't care for the spring roll. They had some pasty filling inside. The shrimp fried rice was ok. The rice was very dark complexed. Perhaps, they added too much soy sauce while preparing food. The Lo Mein was average also. It had a strange after taste which is hard to explain. Think of it like a charcoal pepperish taste which I couldn't understand. By the way, the restaurant workers were all eating in a single round table when we walked in and it felt like we were rushed. That was my fault to arrive so late towards closing time. There was one other couple that arrived after us. read more

Be aware of this place they like to rob people. Here is a $14.00 boneless spare ribs and more that 1/3 is broccoli, they fill this to make it look like you're are getting your money's worth. Thank God I'm not allergic to broccoli. Had to call, the guy that answer the phone was rude. Once I explained the issue to the owner, and show him picture I was able to get my money back. It's sad as this place have great food, but scamming people like this doesn't matter how good your food is. read more

Five Star Chinese Restaurant - 1/3 - Chinese Near Me - Hazleton, Pennsylvania

We tried this restaurant again, because our favorite Chinese restaurant was closed today. I still don't like this one. Food was bland and not much meat in the house special mei fun or the happy family. read more

I thought the food I had here was above average for take-out Chinese. The shrimp and string beans and the broccoli beef were fantastic. The Wonton soup was well above average. The fried rice and pan fried pork dumplings were okay. I love how they offer two sizes for everything, I wish every place did that. The guy working the phones was friendly and helpful. It was very good for what it was. Note: Apple Maps tried to send me into The Mall. The place was by the Aldi, Dollar Tree, and some closed bar called Bogarts. If Apple Maps sends you into the mall or on the street behind the mall just put in Aldi and you should get there. read more

Chinese restaurant along the road are a welcoming sights, when you only find to eat pizza, burgers, chicken tenders, and fries for nearly every meal driving across the country, the local Chinese restaurants offer a welcoming change, with noodles, rices, and different seasoning. Top 5 Stars offered all that with quick bite and convenient location to the highway and to the many hotels in the area. We had the sweet and sour chicken that was crispy and hot. Also we really enjoyed the chow fun, the noodles were very soft, thin, and wasn't broken apart or overcooked. read more

Food is just ok.Prices are 5th Avenue prices.Plenty of other Chinese takeout places to give your business to,that aren't that pricey.

I have Doordashed from this place on multiple occasions. Twice I have requested a substitution in the instructions section of Doordash and Five Star willingly provided it. I had asked for tofu and veggies on menu items where it normally isn't an option in place of meat and they always would accommodate and put plenty of tofu in :) Food quality is usually good, could use a little more sauce sometimes. read more

Good place. Loved the SR11 wonderful roll special rolls. Their basil fried rice was ok. Not similar to Thai places. It's more like Chinese style fried rice done with white rice. Their pad ki mao (drunken noodle) was also not like Thai places. It was white. Usually Thai places has that black/yellow sauce. Best way to explain this will be if you tossed in plain drunken noodles on steamed chicken and veggie. They should add more of that sauce that Thai places use. But overall good place. Greta customer service. Small mom and pop shop which I'll always support more than restaurant chains. read more

Very good food and the customer service was great. Also very low prices compared to all the other place around here.

So I use to love this chinese restaurant but I ordered food there tonight, it was absolutely horrible. Everything I ordered was horrible, the chicken and broccoli tasted like it sat way to long and the pork lo main tasted like medicine and was bitter, the Chinese pizza was so burnt and the egg roll was hard as a rock. I am so dissapointed and I will never order from here again! Which is a shame considering I use to eat there atleast 1 time a week. This place went to hell and they wouldnt even make it right, I wouldnt recommend anyone to go here, this place should be shut down because its dirty on top of the horrible food read more

I stopped in after finding out Taco Bell across from them was closed for renovations. It's full service sit down restaurant with liquor license. Being lunch time did not order any wine. They served hot tea and glass of water to start with. They did have menu with half or full meal during lunch time . Veggie mixed with garlic sauce was too bland so I asked for hot oil chili sauce and hot mustard sauce to blend with veggies , rice. That really made my dish as I wanted. Also ordered spring roll. Service was fast and waiters very receptive. Be back read more

Fool me once shame on me, cool me twice shame on me. The first bad experience here was with chicken chow mein, it had no seasoning it tasted like dirty water, told the waiter and he called this dude in a blazer, I explained, his response was that I don't know what that should taste like, that it's meant to be plain. Ok, no, I love chicken chow mein and that was not right. Didn't get my money back didn't get a replacement, nothing. This second time I just ordered a soup because I have a nasty head cold, I've had this soup twice before dine-in and I figured it being brothy and a touch spicy it was going to be perfect. Get home take the soup out, where's the soup? It's a container of noodles no broth about 6 dumplings and some green leaves, again, no broth, is it still soup? I pretty much paid 13$ for 2 packs of .25€ ramen. read more

The food I ordered wasn't edible. I tried but it tasted so bad! I got the green curry with tofu. The green looked neon green. I've ordered this dish many times at many restaurants and this place has the honor of being the worst green curry I've ever had. The eggplant and the tofu were huge, random sizes, and weirdly shaped. Also, the restaurant was packed (surprisingly) and there was one server. Poor service coupled with horrible food would equal a zero score if it was allowed. read more

So we went with the Yelp recommendations and gave it a try. We were not disappointied... Nearly empty on a Sunday evening...but we received prompt, courteous, even entertaining service. Our server, Edward I think...cracked jokes and kept us entertained the entire time. He even made a special dessert for my daughter's birthday - no charge...ice cream, watermelon and a candle...like 5 scoops...enough to that everyone got a taste...very cool gesture! I had my Chinese standby - The General...one of the best ever...stir fried rice was just so/so. Egg roll wasn't very good...but hot & sour soup was pretty good...I've had better and worse. My daughter love ribs, but didn't like these... They have Thai too - and my wife loved her curry... The other two meals were an assortment of meat and veggies...everyone liked what they got..and we all took enough home for another meal...so portions were pretty large. The service made the meal though...we had a good time and the food was pretty good...Looking forward to the next time to see what I try :) read more

since the new owner took over the place went to hell! ordered food and they brought me two of the same orders! and tryed to overcharge me! stand clear cuz there are cat's running out of the back of this establishment!! read more

Best Chinese food place in the area! I always get the Pad Se Ew from their Thai menu, and it's the best I've ever had. The portions are big, they're priced affordably, and all of the employees are very nice (and grateful when I tip). Their sushi can be a hit or miss sometimes, but I've noticed it's better when ordered in the beginning of the day. Their steamed dumplings are also a huge hit among my friends! I'll continue coming here & recommending this place to anyone who lives nearby. read more

Oh how I miss Five Star!! I moved to Delaware about a year ago and while there are MANY Chinese restaurants, my ratings for them range from "Okay, never going there again!" to "Expensive and not really the greatest." Five Star's food is always consistent, fresh and delicious! (And you won't find pizza rolls listed on their appetizer menu like some of the places in the city where I live.) You also get what you pay for, even if you do their lunch specials you may have leftovers. My new favorite Five Star dish is from their Thai menu - Thai Pineapple Fried Rice. You get your choice of meat with it so I usually get it with chicken but have also tried it with shrimp, either way it is just as yummy. Been going to Five Star for years and if I don't go while I'm visiting I usually grab something to take home before I leave. Great food, great service, great prices!! read more

Five Star Chinese Restaurant - Thai Pineapple Fried Rice with Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Hazleton, Pennsylvania

The new "Top Five Stars" really is worth only 2 stars, mostly because the pickup order was ready on time and the guy behind the counter was nice. Since I wrote my last review here the place has changed hands. It was very good right after that switch; now, it's back to the same old bland food. I ordered a shrimp roll, mostly wrapper and filler. I ordered BBQ spare ribs - but they don't do those anymore (they gave me "boneless", but did'nt tell me on the phone) and while they said these would taste just like what I'd get on the bone, this was clearly just the bland pork they put in fried rice. Pork fried rice was ok when I added soy sauce. Beef with green peppers and onions - mostly vegetables and very little meat. So disappointed; I thought the place turned the corner with new management but clearly not. I won't go back. read more

Awesome Chinese food and they have great hospitality. We love their food. I would highly recommend them in Luzern area

It's in the names folks. 10/10. 5 stars indeed . They never disappoint their food is amazing. Great wait times and friendly staff. I totally recommend. read more

Just ate the Moo Shoo Pork from Five Star. It was terrible, mostly vegetables that were over cooked and salty with a few pieces of pork. I would not recommend ordering this dish. read more

I only tried them once for sushi, it was a take out experience. I didn't have a menu on hand so I used their site, but sadly their site is out of date as in options and prices. Apparently on many items its $0.50-$1 difference in costs, so I'd assume its at least a year out of date. I also tried their Thai years ago, wasn't a huge fan of their coconut curry, extremely spicey, which could be normal but for me, my taste it was overkill. Sushi I tried with them was the Vampire Roll: Shrimp tempura wrapped inside eel, smoked salmon and avocado on top.Which I loved a lot, well anything with Shrimp tempura I would love honestly. Added a pic to this yelp page. read more

I have had the General Tso's Chicken combo twice and they were excellent. The chicken was moist and tender and the sauce was spicy and very good. The egg rolls are tender and fresh. I also had an order of crab rangoon; very good. read more

The best Chinese food Ive ever had wow. Their affordable, super quick, and the food is delicious. This is the place to go.

Remains one of the better Asian restaurants in the area. Great service, very attentive staff, clean. Been around quite a few years now. A bit dated but charming. Sushi is fresh. Presentation is very good. Sushi rice is fluffy, albeit a bit plain tasting to me (I personally like a hint of rice vinegar flavor to my sushi rice, so not my favorite sushi but still very enjoyable). I especially love the Thai dishes. Both the green curry and the mango curry with shrimp and vegetables, are my go-to favorites. I rarely drink alcohol but did indulge in a sake or two. The cherry blossom sake, I believe, which was very sweet and rich like a sherry. I loved it. Nice little touches. Hot tea and ice water at sit down. The golden baked crispy noodles, placed on the table as an appetizer with duck sauce, are highly addicting. I also always enjoy the pineapple after dinner. My grading for this restaurant remains limited to dining in the area. It is by no means intended to be compared to the wide variety of higher end Asian dining available in a big city. That aside, I highly recommend a meal here. Great dining in and take-out. read more

This used to be our spot up until a few months ago when everything started going down hill. Food is now sub par, bad quality, stale nuts, old rice, etc. Only thing 5 star is the name. Not returning unfortunately since they had my favorite dish. read more

Five Star has easily been the best American-Chinese food restaurant in Hazleton for decades. A few years ago, they added Thai and Japanese to their menu. (I don't like seafood, so I can't speak to the quality of the sushi, but friends enjoy it.) There are some hiccups when communicating with some of the wait staff, but everyone is friendly and polite and I don't recall many mistakes being made since I've been eating here. A few of the waiters will recognize you as a regular and will make pretty good small talk with you. The food itself is not as robust or authentic as something you'd find in a major metropolitan area, but for Hazleton, it's as good as it gets. Standbys like General Tso's chicken, lo mein, egg rolls--it's all good stuff. I'm not exactly blown away by the Thai menu--Thai Thai in Wilkes-Barre is tastier though pricier alternative for that--but I find myself ordering from it more often than not, especially when fresh vegetables are in season. Japanese food has never appealed to me, so I haven't tried much of it from Five Star, but they seem to have an extensive sushi menu. If you want endless quantities of absolutely terrible food, there are a couple of Chinese buffets in Hazleton you can visit. But for quality, variety, and atmosphere, Five Star can't be beat. read more

Let me start by saying that it went bad since the person who took the order. Our food was disgusting! Nothing that we order was right. The rice was raw and unchewable. The ribs were burnt. We order Crab ragoons and they send something completely different. TOTALLY DISSATISFIED! When I called to speak with the owner it get worse! He indicated that "He watches his chefs cook" "That he doesn't understand how rice cannot be cooked" Just a complete disaster! No sense of customer service or criticism taken! Do not expect a call back or your money back! read more
