" Star House is often packed, and I can see why! I ordered the kung pao chicken, and it was beautifully balanced in flavors. The atmosphere is lively, filled with friendly locals and families. Just a note, be prepared for a little wait during peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're in the mood for really authentic Chinese food, Star House is the place to be! The Peking Duck was done to perfection, golden brown and crispy. I’ve tried various Chinese restaurants but nothing compares to the freshness and taste here. The owners are incredibly welcoming and made our dining experience feel like a home-cooked meal. I will definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve had mixed experiences at Chinese restaurants, but Star House exceeded my expectations. The sweet and sour chicken was exceptionally crispy, and I was surprised at how generous the portion sizes were for the price. The owners really care about their customers, which made our meal even more enjoyable. I'm looking forward to trying more from their menu, especially the dumplings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! Literally one of the best Chinese dishes I've ever had. Their Szechuan chicken is packed with such a punch of flavor, it made me want to come back for more. The family running the place make you feel so welcome and special, which is a significant plus. The only reason I’m giving it a 4-star review instead of 5 is the dining area could use a little sprucing up. Overall, a wonderful experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Star House feels like dining at a friend's house! The atmosphere is casual and inviting, which complements the fantastic offerings they have. I stumbled upon the restaurant via recommendations, and the Shrimp Lo Mein instantly became my favorite. The only downside was that the chicken in the dish could have been a little more seasoned. Overall, a great place to visit, especially if you appreciate family-owned eateries. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Star House after seeing all the great reviews. I ordered the garlic beef, and while it was good, I felt like it was somewhat salty, which took away from the overall flavor. The ambiance is decent and the service was friendly, but I wished the food had a better balance. I’d likely return, but I'd try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I truly love this family-run place! The warm and cozy atmosphere adds to every meal. Their fried rice, especially the jalapeño-infused version, is one of my favorites. The owners are sweet and make an effort to remember your name, which makes the experience feel so personal. I always recommend it to friends when they ask for a good Chinese spot!
