Reviews
We were all sadly disappointed. The General Tso’s tofu was bland and lacked flavor. When reheated the next night, it had no distinctive “General Tso’s” taste, although the tofu was nicely crisped on the outside.
The beef, shrimp, and chicken dish was unremarkable. “It doesn’t compare at all with what [competitor’s name] would serve,” my friend said (or words to that effect). I had it the following night, too: the beef was tender, the chicken less so, but still uninteresting.
My wife ordered the chicken egg foo yung: “It was ok, but it was bland.” What she *did* appreciate is that the gravy was provided in a separate container. Often, we have elsewhere found the egg omelet swimming in a salty gravy.
Now, the Pork Yat: the New Star menu reads “Pork yat typically consists of tender pork pieces mixed with vegetables and served over noodles, often accompanied by a savory sauce.” Really. I received a quart container of a thick brown gravy with noodles, a few slivers of pork, and apparently no vegetables. I see elsewhere on the web that “Pork Yat” can be a noodle soup: that’s just not what the description prepared me for.
I realize now I had never heard a friend recommend New Star, and a healthy skepticism might have found a better meal than we got. Perhaps I overloaded the kitchen by asking for a pickup time 25 minutes after I called this order in (the restaurant did not say it would be a problem), but it took 45 minutes for our food to finally be ready to go. We will not be returning, I think.
The shrimp rolls are wonderful, definitely fried fresh!
Ordered the jumbo shrimp w/broccoli, moo goo gai pan, and hot and sour soup.
Quality fresh ingredients, everything was packed full of flavor, nothing was oily or soggy with grease like a lot of take out places. I asked for extra spicy and it was the perfect amount of heat.
I love love love this place, haven’t had great take out Chinese like this in years! Can’t wait to go back!
Lots of shrimp in my lo mein and the veggies are nice and fresh.
Everything was perfect.
My new go to in town!
