This is a takeout review. My mom ordered some meats here and we were surprised at how good it was. She got the roast pork, the duck and pork shank. They were all flavorful, tender. This is definitely one of the better bbq I had in a really long time. Service is pretty standard nothing really special. It's interesting how they do roast pork on on Thurs- Sunday but the other days they have char siu pork.. either way, definitely would come back to try this place with the other food. read more

Chinese BBQ will always be nostalgic for me, and this place is serving the best I've tried in the greater Seattle area in a long time! It's very no-frills, family owned, and worth seeking out if you're in the area. I had the 3 meat combo lunch special for $17.95 before tax/tip and picked scallion chicken, char siu, and duck. Everything was juicy and flavorful. I came on a Thursday afternoon and there was a pretty long steady line out the door, with people from all backgrounds. When it's that good, everyone knows! read more

Megastar BBQ Restaurant - 3 meat lunch combo - Barbeque Near Me - Kent, Washington

This isn't a traditional American-chinese restaurant, this is more authentic Chinese, meats-hanging-in-the-window street stall type restaurant. There isn't servers or dine-in really, it's walk up order to go mostly. It doesn't really seem open from the outside but it is. They have maybe 10 options total. Meats and rice basically. Having said that, I got duck and pork and rice for $18 and it really was delicious. The duck sauce they put on the rice and meat was great. It's not really like bring the whole family type, but if you got a mad hankering for some good meats, this is your place. read more

Came in for the first time and opted for the 3 meat lunch combo. Pork, spare ribs, and bbq duck. I enjoyed every bite and even had a little leftover to go. The meat was very flavorful and crisp. Ill be back for more. read more

Heard good things about this place on social media, so we decided to stop by while visiting another spot south of Seattle. The restaurant is currently takeout only, even though there's indoor seating spaces. If I understood correctly, staff mentioned there are some permitting issues preventing dine in service for now. We ordered the steamed chicken with scallion, golden pig, BBQ pork, house special roast duck, and soy sauce chicken. I was especially looking forward to the golden pig! When it came out, the skin was nice and crispy and flavorful, but the meat had a strong "porky" taste that wasn't quite to my liking. My kid, however, enjoyed it and the other one loved the BBQ pork. My personal favorite was the steamed chicken with scallion, which was tender and well seasoned. Parking was easy in the medium-sized lot, and the service was friendly and efficient. read more

We tried their noodles for the first time. They are really good. This place always has a steady clientele, mainly driving up, getting some meats, and leaving. Duck, pork, beef. Efficient service. Located near downtown Kent. No nonsense ambiance. read more

I found Megastar from a local Seattle foodie. When I walked in the restaurant was empty, the window was lined with fresh whole duck, chicken and almost whole roasted pig. I ordered two combos both with roast pork and roast duck. The butcher came over promptly to chop the meats. The cashier made my take out containers filled with white rice and simple sautéed cabbage . The butcher then placed my cut meats on top of the cabbage and spooned some duck fat sauce on top of my rice. I also ordered two scallion oils. The cabbage, such an underrated vegetable. Sautéed just enough that it was tender but not mushy. A nice cleanser paired with fatty juicy meats. The juices from the meats flavored the cabbage just to give it an additional flavor. This is a great deal for your money. I believe it was $16 for the two bbq meat combo. Once I had placed my order the restaurant started to get really busy, people lining up already. The roast pork was juicy and fatty, yet the skin was nice and crispy. Very scrumptious. My favorite. The duck oozing with juicy flavors. Fatty and meaty. My second favorite. The scallion ginger oil compliments both meat well. Gives the meats an additional dimension of flavor , cutting through the fatty juices. read more

I'm glad I had Megastar BBQ Restaurant as one of my many Yelp bookmarks in Kent. I stopped in about 2:30pm out of curiosity (8/10/24). Convenient private lot with ample parking. There is onsite seating, but no one actively dining at the time. I waiting in line and perused their posted menu at the front counter while two other customers were wrapping up their transactions. They do take cards (VISA/MC) and cash as payment. I ordered half pound each roast pork and BBQ pork/char siu, plus half a soy sauce chicken. Entrees are also available with vegies and steamed rice. The meats are expertly chopped, weighed on a scale right at eye level, and nicely packaged for takeout. Pleasant counter staff. Of course, Murphy's Law, another staff member brought out four hooks of roast duck to hang in the display area after I had ordered and paid. A good note to self for a future visit. Because I had other stops and long drive back north to Shoreline, I placed the takeout in an ice chest for safe transport on this hot Saturday afternoon. It kept well and was enjoyed back home with The Homie with steamed rice and condiments we had on hand. It really hit the spot as my first substantial meal of the day. The quality is comparable to Cantonese spots in Seattle's CID, greater Puget Sound, and Richmond, BC, Canada. Just note that roast pork is only available Thurs-Sun. The other proteins are available on all business days Tuesdays through Sundays 10AM-9pm. Closed Mondays. read more

Great Chinese style BBQ here in Kent! Very well marinated meats available. Service is quick and friendly. Even though you can dine in, It's best to do take outs instead. Very reminiscent of greasy places that make wonderful food. Don't come here if you're into sparkling clean restaurants. Come here for great Chinese BBQs to go. read more

Megastar remains my go-to for Cantonese style bbq. My family's favorite is the Housr Special Duck and BBQ pork. The staff there are nice. Still no dine-in, takeout only. Price has been going up. According to the staff it's due to the increase in meat price. read more

I passed by this place not too long ago and was told that they have one of the best roast duck. Not sure what's the different between the special and the regular duck but the special duck was really good. The restaurant has plenty of parking and has ample tables inside. Looks nice and clean. The service was quick and staff was really nice. I would come back here again. read more

A nice spot outside of Chinatown for traditional Cantonese BBQ! I got the 3 meat combo with roast duck, soy sauce chicken, and char siu. Everything was good and the portions were on the generous end. Also the prices here are good and cheaper than what you may find elsewhere in the Greater Seattle area. Quality is comparable to places like Kau Kau. They are primarily takeout but they do allow you to eat your food in takeout boxes at the establishment which is also nice! read more

Best location for barbecue meats and owners are super sweet. You can tell by the photo how juicy and soft the chicken looks.Opened daily 10am- 7:30pm except for Monday's. My family come all the way from Burien to buy it even though it's out of the way because it's that good. Not much of a eat in place but there is a lot of seating as well. read more

Megastar BBQ: I ordered the roasted pork. First of all this was very expensive for the quality I got. Just for a little over a pound was $28 bucks. The pieces were cut huge like chicken Katsu with 9 baby back size bones in it. They were on the bottom of the container. I thought this was supposed to be roasted pork. Tons of bones and the huge pieces not cut normally like roasted pork pieces. I got no sauce like the pictures of other peeps who got roasted pork. The pork was barely warm and some pieces were cold. I must of gotten the last piece of pork. Because it wasn't anything special and somewhat salty. There are too many good places for way cheaper. This is one close to my house. I definitely won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Megastar BBQ Restaurant - Roasted Pork not even cut up into small pieces. Received no sauce and tons of bones on the bottom. - Barbeque Near Me - Kent, Washington

The 3 meat combo is my go order at Megastar. The golden pig, soy sauce chicken and duck are all really good. But golden pig isn't always available so replace with bbq pork instead when i have to. The portion sizes have gotten quite smaller as of late and less options seem to be available, which could all be a timing thing for me as i haven't been coming in as early. Still a must stop anytime I'm near Kent Station read more

The best Chinese bbq in Kent I would recommend. Bbq duck or bbq pork is both are my favorite. They also have bbq dry duck it's just ok I would not recommend it. read more

Almost wanted to gate keep this for myself but I wanted them to get more business. They are your no frill quick service place for Chinese BbQ where they hack ducks, chicken and chunks kf succulent Bbq and crispy roast pork as you make your way down to the register. The gal working cashier is always nice and pleasant to be around. They don't have much of a dining space but if you're in a hurry, their few tables and chair would do the job. I love their roast duck but the best deal is the meal combo where you can get your choice of 1 type of meat, or 2 or 3. They serve the meat on top of a bed of rice and some tasty stir fried cabbage. If you're a fan of roast pork, go early because they sell out fast. read more

We love their honey barbecue pork (叉燒) so we went back to get some more. Coming from Hong Kong, and having had charsiu in HK BBQ Master in Vancouver, I would say I know my char siu. Aesthestically, the Megastar charsiu doesn't look all that pretty and that's because they don't use dye (according to my chitchat with the owner in cantonese) and so I feel good about feeding it to my 3 year old. We also tried out their House Roast Duck. We'll, first, I had to find out what the difference is between the regular roast duck and the house roast duck, aside from the $2 extra. The owner shared that the skin is crisper (crispier?) And the seasoning is slightly different. And I'd say the best $2 spent. We liked it and would rank it as of one the better roast ducks in the seattle area. We plan to try out their beef chow fun 乾炒牛河 which was shared by their owner during our chit-chat. They seemed very proud of that dish and I'm excited to try. read more

Very flavorful and juicy; meat is tender, not dry; boxes are mixed in terms of meat with bone or little bones. Boxes seem to be a good value. One of the few Chinese bbq places aside from Ranch 99, Asian grocery stores or driving up to Seattle. Prices are ok. read more

Fantastic little authentic Cantonese BBQ in downtown Kent. It seems like a family owned joint and the food is excellent. I highly recommend the duck, as it is particularly wonderful. Ordering is super simple as the staff speaks good English and are super kind and accommodating. The price is fair as it's almost all just meats. You do get a little steamed cabbage with the food plates and it's a nice addition. Get the duck sauce on the rice and enjoy! read more

This is a legitimate Chinese BBQ place. Don't let the 1-star review deter you from trying this new place out! Looks like it's family run. So go and support your ma 'n pop shop! The dining room hold about 30 people. Small shop trying to peep its way up. It's all good. BBQ price is comparable to 99 Ranch market. Quality is on point! I just love how the roasted pig skin is so damn crunchy, not chewy like at some other places. They have the right amount of spice, not too salty nor too sweet. Love it! I was offered sample since it's my first time here. Great service! The star of the show is the char siu (bbq pork), go get yourself some, and more! It is moist, right amount of sweetness to it, a little bit of fatty tissue, not so much where you're gagging after eating one. Oh boy, I can rave about it all day! But I'm not. So go get your self some char siu! Now the BBQ ribs are debatable, cuz some pieces are good, some are dry. He cut me the smaller end where there's more cartilage than bone. But, as we all know, the bigger end is what's up! Bottom line, I would go back here to stock up on my meats. #atkinsgonecraycray read more

The food was excellent. While giving a mom and pop hole in the wall type of vibe, the food was fresh and a healthy portion. The menu here on Yelp does not have the current prices but still a wonderful new hidden gem. read more

The meat is a awesome in this shop. We read about it in yelp. It is a takeout jointbut the staff was nice to allow us to eat in. We ordered some duck and Chicken to go. I am impressed the order line is constantly long at 3pm with people across all cultures. Great food area! read more

The food was delicious my son and I shared the 3 meat dish and loved it. We will most definitely be returning.

Tasty soy sauce chicken. We wanted to try the roast pork but it was sold out by 5pm. I will need to try the roast pork and decide.

An amazing Chinese BBQ joint in Kent, and their proteins are top quality. I would definitely recommend asking for half rice as their rice portions are huge but heads-up that roasted pork is only available on the weekends. If you're looking for something close and top tier, ask for a rice plate with 1/2 BBQ pork and 1/2 Roasted pork :) read more

Best bbq pork, roast pork and duck. Try the salty fish fried rice,Friendly service. Great for a quick lunch

Looking for a Chinese roast duck pretty late in the evening but not wanting to eat at a restaurant. They had 3 hanging, so I got one cut to go. Juiciest duck ever! read more

The food was OK, but I don't know why they always pull that barbecue restaurant technique of hiding when cutting the meat then giving you different mystery cuts. Portions were okay. Had some bitter cabbage too. My fault for not having a picture. I was hungry. Not coming back. read more

I was recommended to try this place after speaking with a coworker from Hong Kong. I've been to Vancouver, BC many times and eaten roast pork with rice on every trip at either HK BBQ Master or Parker Place Meats. This spot in Kent was a big let down, largely due to the portion size. I go and order their lunch with roast pork and rice. The middle aged woman behind the counter gets a rectangular styrofoam tray and fills it 80% with rice. She adds some cabbage. Then the young man chopping the meats gets instructions to add the roast pork. Do you know the size of a roll of quarters at the bank? They're about the size of my middle finger. I got 2 middle fingers worth of roast pork. I asked the woman behind the counter and she says this was the lunch portion for $11. This is about 1/3 the amount of roast pork compared to the two aforementioned places in Vancouver. And it costs about $10 CAD over in Vancouver, so about $8 USD. I showed the lunch portion to my coworker. He shook his head and said the restaurant will be out of business like that. The next day, he took me to another place in Tukwila inside of the Lam Seafood Market. There's a food court tucked away with a place called Golden Daisy. Their roast pork was priced the same as Megastar BBQ and the portion was actually lunch size. Never returning to Megastar BBQ again and don't recommend it for others since they will rip you off. read more

BBQ duck, chicken and pork were all delicious and full of flavors. The house special roasted duck is my favorite here. I highly recommend getting the house special over the regular roasted duck. I definitely want to come back and try the roast pork as many other yelpers recommended. The service is super friendly. They lady owner knows my parents very well from the number of times visited. It's also a super convenient location in Kent. She also gave us extra meat at no charge. read more

If our LORD was to eat Chinese BBQ PORK, HE would have it here! The very best pork and duck!

I've only been here twice and at least a year or two apart. Went today and just got Singapore noodle plus a half pound of the barbecue pork. Both were very good. The Singapore Noodles were generous portion, with good amount of shrimp and vegetables, flavor was great Barbecue pork here was not like the dried out red coated stuff you but packaged at the supermarkets, but fresh and had a variety of slices, from pieces with tasty rind but mostly pure tender meat and only a little fat. I don't know it compares to other barbecue pork, say in Seattle, because I just don't order this very often. what I got another time was the meat-rice-veg combo special and was disappointed for same reasons as some other reviews mentioned , such as boring vegetable (watery cabbage was all) and small amounts of the meat But - today's visit worked better for me to just buy meat by the pound and order my side extra. This way as a moderate eater I've gotten two meals out of my order even if it did cost a little more than just the meat and rice combo. I recently moved nearby and it's worth visiting again Still no indoor dining, only takeout. They were friendly and fast. Place looked clean and simple. read more

We ordered 2 BBQ meat combo rice plates for takeout on a weekday for lunch. One had BBQ pork and roast pork. The other had BBQ pork, roast duck, and a fried egg. The rice plates come with a layer of steamed (or boiled) cabbage underneath so you can at least attempt to get some greens. The BBQ pork is good, but it's not the best I've had. The roast duck is really tasty, but it's a little boney. HOWEVER - I'm very impressed with their roast pork! The roast pork alone is what makes me look forward to ordering from them again. And we will! Can't wait to order from them next week! read more
