Large portions. Broccoli was hard. Drinks were good. Orderd a pineapple passion and a tequila sunrise
The food is delish. You dont feel like youre eating mystery meat and the food is consistently good. The service is goood as well
The food is classically delicious. Whether you grew up ordering chinese or walking to your local spot, the flavors of this food will definitely take you back to nostalgia lane! Friendly servers and reasonably priced, this is one of the best restaurants in Brooklyn! Mask friendly and completely clean and odor free! You ought to drop by!
Food is always delicious. Great service and fast
I ordered food 5:30pm and was told an hour to an hour and a half. At 7:04pm I called to see if the food was coming. I was told 45 more minutes.At 8pm I called and they had the NERVE to tell me another hour!!!!Are you kidding me?? Three hours and a half hours for food? This was disgusting and unprofessional!!I canceled the order and they lost a nice delivery amount.I will not be ordering again. Disgraceful way of conducting business !!
Best Chinese food in town. Attentive waiter service. Always a good experience.
Love this Place. China new star has been my go to Chinese place for years. The food is always fresh and delicious. The people that work here are phenomenal.
China New Star went from the Best Chinese Food in Brooklyn,To one of the worst Chinese food since New Management took over..They raised Their Prices and I’m guessing they know their days are numbered.You been warned.
Food was awesome. Staff courteous and very professional. Lunch special a must.
It used to be really good but quality went down. The last two times I ordered General Tso’s Chicken—it was unacceptable. Overly breaded, dry, odd smell and texture, and there was an egg shell inside the skin!!! Not sure if it’s a new cook, new recipe or mystery meat, but it wasn’t good. They are also so much more expensive than other local spots and it’s just not worth it anymore if the food is no longer that good. The only thing I can eat that’s edible there now, is the eggplant and low mein. I miss the former owners.
About the best Chinese food in Brooklyn. Been going here for 30 years and food has ALWAYS been good.
Great customer service, and food is exceptional compared to other Chinese restaurants. Nice decor and decent prices. This is now my regular for Chinese food. Definitely recommend this restaurant.
The food is really good. The only problem i have is the prices.they are expensive..your on flatbush ave..not park ave in Manhattan. Over 26.00 for an order of spareribs with tax.is crazy to me.lower the damm prices. the ribs were like 4 inches long.2 equal one ..but they are very good.lol..they have the fastest delivery service you will ever get.there very nice people... Just the prices are high..
One of my favorite spots in the neighborhood. The food is always fresh and never disappoints. The deliver fast and have your orders ready quickly if you call ahead for pick-up.
Best Chinese food Ive had in many years I will definitely go back there.
The food is good but its just the cups and silverware that are kind of dirty
My coworker boasted and bragged about how the food was so great.. first of all, the food was disgusting and I spent $81. Extremely disappointed 😞 😥 However, the ambience and restaurant dine in is very nice. Go at your own risk 😫
This place was one of the better restaurants to go to when the previous ownership ran the place. Over the past 2 years it has become a disappointment since the New OwnerShip took over. The quality of the food weather it in house dining or take out has become terrible. Last night I decided to give China New Star another chance after 2 years so I ordered Beef Chow Fung, Pork Fried Rice and 3 Egg Rolls. Well for those of you who are reading this the food was not terrible, it was disgusting. In addition the pricing is too expensive for the disgusting. Do yourself a favor go some place elsewhere.
Theres only one dish I order every single time I visit this restaurant - Walnut Shrimp! Ive been ordering that dish for the past FIFTEEN YEARS. I think its time I tried something different. Thinking about General Tso Shrimp. 😋The wait staff is very courteous and accommodating. If you need to tweak a dish they will do it for you.Highly recommend!
Favorite Chinese food in yrs! Great food, customer service, prices, & fast free delivery! The Sweet & Sour sauce for the duck is amazing!
Food was absolute fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥 service was amazing, y’all gotta come here now. 10/10, servers are nice, nice really cold water. All and all a fire restaurant 🔥🔥
I took my 4 grandchildren to dinner tonight. Apparently they gave us the lunch menu to choice from!! I did not realize until the bill came when I questioned the prices they showed me the dinner menu, not the menu they gave us to choice from. We would have ordered a whole different way. The options of family style were not presented to me. They were down right rude about it! Terrible experience with the new owners will NOT be going back. Have been a faithful customer for many many yrs. Could have taken 10% off. or something!! Shame on them!
Food on the greasy side. Service and staff were 100%
The quality of food is excellent, and well served portion! Especially love their seafood bird’s nest and Tom hawk steak, top notch! And a good service is another plus. We will definitely come back again.
Food was excellent. We ordered dinner for 2 and added a portion of spareribs(6) and both only drank water. Bill came out to $68 not counting tax. It seemed a bit expensive.
Normally I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this place, but the chicken yat gow mein soup had me so disappointed no vegetables at all the noodles thin and hard unlike every other place Ive had this soup and just a few pieces of chicken so disappointed I look forward to enjoying this soup and Normally order it from a couple of places in Bensonhurst or Gravesend. Looks like I will have to take a drive if I want it. Other than that the food is generally excellent here.
Food quality is terrible now.Fried rice is overcooked hard and burnt..Boneless spare ribs were nothing but pieces of fat. Egg roll was very greasy..Won ton soup had no flavor..Threw mostly everything out..Please hire back the cook that the old owners had..
This restaurant has been in the neighborhood for many years its elegant and the food is fantastic staff very attentive and friendly lovely place for a special occasion clean and lovely decor .
Best fried rice in Brooklyn! Ill be back to try other items on the menu!
The restaurants interior decor is really nice but my experience was not! On July 17th my cousin invited me out to get something to eat and our first encounter with our server already started off wrong. Our server was a tall bald guy; he seemed very annoyed by our questions and he rushed us the whole time we were ordering. After ordering we didn’t see him again until 20 minutes later when we waved him down for a water refill. A couple minutes later a Caucasian couple come in, order, and some how their meal arrives before ours. We wait patiently for our food which comes out 10 minutes later. Finally we finish eating and our server doesn’t even attempt to check on us. Another Caucasian couple comes in, and he immediately runs to cater to them, then ignores us to go to another table behind us. Another 10 minutes goes by and he finally comes to our table. By then I was extremely frustrated and expressed my concerns, that man argued with me the whole time. It wasn’t until I said “I am a customer at this establishment and I am expressing my concerns your first response should be I’m sorry you feel that way what can I do to make it better” that he finally gave us an emotionless apology. He then disappears again and never comes back to get the check. At this point we decide to just pay at the bar. My cousin decides to express how she also felt to the cashier and that was a waste because she brushed us off as soon as she got our money. Now what does that tell you? After this terrible experience I will NEVER eat at this restaurant again! It seems as though if you’re Caucasian you’ll be treated like kings and queens but the same can not be said for people of color how sad!
The service was very good the food was great and plentyI will be going back
Had a big family lunch to honor a family member that passed last year. The staff was great! The food was great,big portions. I was never there before but would definitely go back and recommend this restaurant. The restaurant was very clean.
Great food. Wonderful service
LOVE this place the food is always fresh and the service is amazing.Never a bad meal and the place is always packed . Keep up the great work food has been gets since the 1990s
This is the most consistent and delicious Chinese food on earth. Amazing service including delivery. Fresh and real ingredients and humane prices.
I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant because of the food. Specifically everything you can order you can get half the price at a regular Chinese takeout. Plus their food is super bland and really stingy with tipping. The seating is very nice, too bright though but again the food.
Very nice, clean restaurant serving old schoolBrooklyn Chinese food. Great prices and lovely staff. Its just too bad that they dont have any outdoor dining set up.
Love the food here! Great costumer service and fast delivery. The food is always fresh.
Service was good and quick. Mask were worn at all times by staff and there was plenty of room between patrons. Their ribs are absolutely the best. The beef in garlick sauce was delicious. Only thing not up to par was the lo mein.
An oldie but a goodie. No sit in but you can still order and pick up or place for delivery depending on your location. I live 20 mins away and I drive to pick it up. It is worth it. You wont be disappointed. The food is flavorful, not salty, quick service and they can change any item to your liking. It definitely fills you up without guilt.
Foods is excellent, fresh and great service.
Food is always really good here. Great service. You never have to wait long for food to come out. Very reasonably priced
Excellent food. Our waiter John very patient & helpfulVery clean establishment.Highly recommended.Thank you
Always fresh food, large portions, friendly and attractive staff. Everyone leaves with a doggie bag. Very highly recommend. By far the best Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn....
Old school joint that changed hands before Covid and survived the long event. They did it smart and took advantage of the lull with no dine in eating and renovated. Expanded the kitchen and brightened up the joint. Lots of new faces among the staff but the food is still on point. Street parking is available but watch the parking meters. Clean bathrooms.
We went here on Mothers day. We was seated right away. The service was good. The food was decent for a fancy Chinese place. The food portions are huge! I will visit again.
Renovated since I was last there which was quite some time ago. But beautifully done the food was as delicious as I remembered going back as soon as I can.
Terrible experience! I caught an awful stomach bug that i still have not recovered from! I knew something was off when I went to order my food and 3 mins later they told me it was ready. My stomach has not been the same since... it’s been weeks
HOME MADE FRESH ALL THE TIME & DELICIOUS SINCE 1978 BLESS YOUR DAD WHO STARTED THE CHINA NEW STAR AS A TAKEOUT ONLY IN 1978 MY CONDOLENCES FOR THE FAMILY🙏 DAD WAS SO NICE . WE ARE GREATFULFOR TAKING CARE OF US ON FLATBUSH AVE FOR SO LONG ! ALL THE BEST FOR THE NEW OWNERS & LUCKILY HAV KEPT THE CHEF & GOT ALL ORIGINAL RECIPES REGARDS TO ALL
The food is wow! Staff is great! And the prices are reasonable! So yes take the family or a friend. Great menu!!
This place has great ambiance located on the southeast border of Brooklyn. The noodles and duck sauce are amazing! The main dish is good and there are nice portions. This place also serves alcoholic beverages which is unusual for a Chinese restaurant.
This place has went downhill fast! Just visited last summer and everything was great. Went yesterday for a friends birthday and was so disappointed. Hot tea was barely luke warm, only one napkin on the table for a party of 3, chicken wings that tasted like they went DIRECTLY from raw in the pack to the frying pan (void of all seasonings), oily egg rolls. Just awful. The pork fried rice remains tasty however.
Food was mostly good but my son ordered Pan Fried Noodle with chicken and the noodles were not cooked. Seems like they literally took it out the bag and put it on the plate. Other than that it was the typical Chinese restaurant
Based on the ratings and the distance from my hotel I took a chance on it. Its not California Chinese meaning that the vegetables are not as prevalent.The hot and sour soup was good. The ribs are st Louis ribs not baby backs. A little greasy and could have used a bit more bbq sauce.Had the shrimp in lobster sauce based on a review here. The shrimp were jumbos and plentiful. The only things of color were cut up scallion tops and some egg. Still dont know what the brown things were that looked like ground beef crumbles.Excellent service very clean, open and warm feeling.
The customer service was horrendous. I walked in with a friend and wasnt even greeted properly. There was just intense staring before WE requested a table for two. The waiter was very rude as if he didnt want to serve us. The waiter also forgot certain parts of our meal, when we told him about it he was very standoffish. My friend who is a vegetarian was inquiring about alternatives to the chicken soup that was a part of our meal, the waiter continued to be aloof. The food was mediocre. I could have had better food at the Chinese take out up the block. I was just extremely shocked at the customer service quality and that alone would make me give them a zero rating if I could. Never going back there again. -_-
Sad turn for this former neighborhood icon. I can honestly say Ive never had a bad meal in all my years patronizing China New Star until now. Bad in so many ways. First, we noticed the new prices. $17 for combination platters seemed a bit high to us, but what the heck, they always feed us well here, eh? Before our entrees, we ordered the spare ribs, as we always do. This time around they were dry and gritty, over cooked. For the first time ever, we had ribs left over! Then comes our dinner.. two combination platters, fit for a king. (Make that a very small king.) Each had a generous mound of fried rice next to a not so large mound of food. The egg foo young completely fell apart though the lo mein tasted good. We usually take leftovers home but not this time. The waiter asked if we wanted dessert and we both ordered ice cream. He returned with a tiny plate with one scoop of ice cream. We told him there were two of us and he just laughed at us. (Strange, eh? perhaps a language barrier?) The front end lady came over to ask for identification as we paid with a credit card. That, too, was very strange for us. $65 on a chinese dinner for two that left both of us hungry is a travesty! The fact that the quality of food was less than acceptable is secondary. Shame on the new owners!
The best restaurant with great food, and wonderful service, and very clean. We love it.
Very straightforward Chinese food restaurant. The service is usually good but the waiter we had was a bit nasty. One person in our party arrived a little late and we had not picked what we wanted so we requested a little more time. The waiter didnt seem annoyed until we were ordering and he said something to the effect of we took too long to order. I didnt think there was a time frame when ordering. The food is good and never disappoints
If you like the old fashion American style Chinese food than this is good place for those tastes. They also have takeout. I myself prefer the authentic Chinese food where most of the people in the restaurant are Chinese. This place is large and so it is good for groups. They have reasonably priced specials which include ice cream. I have gone with groups there and the service is excellent and they take separate checks. This place is accessible for wheelchairs and walkers.
The food is so good and was the only one we ordered from during the pandemic. You definitely get your money worth. There is indoor dining and they follow Covid spacing.
Best spareribs in the neighborhood. Food is above average, but not great. Its better than most other Chinese restaurants in the area. I only order in from them now. The difference in prices for the same dishes for take-out/order-in vs eat there have become silly. They charge so much more to actually eat there, its almost as if they dont want you to stay. I still give it 4 stars for the delivery and take-out. But dont be a chump and pay the higher prices to sit there. The service certainly isnt worth it.
We live in Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn and we order from China new store all the time and go to pick it up thats how good it is. Probably some of the best shrimp egg foo young I think I have ever had . We have yet to be unsatisfied its worth the trip.
Some of the best Chinese food Ive ever had. Its gourmet, not the garbage stuff we get at fast-food styled Chinese restaurants. I have been coming here since I was a kid (over 20 years). They also specialize in hunan/szechuan authentic Chinese cuisine. I highly recommend them
Such a nice atmosphere they updated the restaurant the bathrooms are clean and beautiful They fry their own noodles that they give you on the table and they make the most delicious Mai Tais served in a cute Polynesian tiki cups the food although pricey is delicious and the portions are large and the servers are nice and attentive YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR !!!
Always fresh and always fast. I HIGHLY recommend the Long Ribs on the Bone. Also, cant go wrong with their dumplings and lomein.
We order from this place from time to time and the food was always good and delivery is quick. Saturday around 5pm we decided to go to the actual restaurant. It was very disappointing! The food was tasteless and they got one if the dishes wrong, they did replace it later. There werent many people when we came in, but by the time our food came we felt like were in a nursing home cafeteria at dinner time (I dont mean any disrespect to elderly people). We couldnt eat, just took the food home and left. This was the least enjoyable outing we ever had.
Just love this place. They did the whole inside over its so bright and airy. And the food is always delicious.
Didnt really enjoy the food it didnt taste authentic 😕. They need to get servers that understand English!! Was very hard trying to communicate with someone who cant even understand signing 🙄.
Went here for my nieces graduation lunch. Fairly priced. Dumplings were too doughy, quick service, place was pretty empty. One issue was the waiter, he was a bit close when it came to serving. Almost on top of us. When we mentioned it he got a bit of attitude. Dont know if well be going back
Last week was the first time in this good restaurant. But It is absolutely not the last time. We had great time with the attentive service, with the finest dishes and booze and with the friendly charge. We will surely go back there in a short time.
It was om..the prices are crazy..and it was packed.I didnt feel safe..guidelines or not.There was too much possible virus traveling in the air once those mask come off.
I grew up with this restaurant, delivery treat when my parents ordered, worked in the area and was our lunch spot, but it has always been consistent, good food great service and the waiters all know me. It has been my relaxing spot with lunch specials for years. Variety means I can try something different each time and it is a dying breed as you can not find any other old school sit down Chinese anymore that does not try to go over the top with Asian fusion and high prices. When I leave NY I will really miss the place!
Food good. When ordering take-out they never seem to get the order correct. I guess thats what happens when they are rushing.
Not exactly terrible, but a shadow of its former grandeur . What used to stand out as a superior quality Chinese restaurant in south Brooklyn has devolved into another run of the mill Chinese take out…but at higher prices.
Great service, Great meal, always on the must do list.
Great service, Great food Im speechless. Staff was amazing and I had no problem dining with my friends. Highly recommended to any of those who want good Chinese food.
Been coming here for years. A well later out resturant. Service is good. Never had a bad meal here in all the time Ive been here. Food is well prepared and hot. Nice size plates. Clean and friendly. Will be back.
This is the best Chinese restaurant I’ve eaten at in a very long time
The best service along side the best food, what more can you ask for. Very generous with the extras which is always nice. A neighborly family oriented establishment!
Very disappointed with the food. Very stale and tasteless. Looks great inside but the food seemed rushed and the chicken wasnt cooked well. The waiters stand and stare at you while you eat while speaking in Chinese as if their talking about you. Kinda felt rushed and unwanted.
My wife said that Everyone loved new star. Didnt like it 5 years ago when I was last here. I love Chinese food. Very disappointed in the taste and texture. Sesame chicken was dry. I wont come back for at least 5 more years when Ill be 73 and my tastebuds will be shot
I think China New Star is under “ NEW owners” service and food is NOT the same😡total disappointment. dry, greasy and not fresh.
Great traditional American Chinese food.
I dont know what everyone is talking about but this place is disgusting. They truly are rude trying to rush you out. If anyone gave this restaurant four to five stars they must have gotten fried chicken with fried rice and for the price that they charge you should go to a regular Chinese store down the road. I went there one day with my girlfriend she ordered the lobster Cantonese and I ordered the crispy duck. When the food came I literally got sick because after tasting it it turn my stomach the duck that I was long waiting had the most fat wasnt on the duck was not crispy and had the most bean sprouts Ive ever seen in a dish. It was so salty after a few bites we had to leave. Is there fried rice and soup was great but I can spend $2 for that anywhere else.
The service was very good and the food was amazing. Love this place I recommend 👌
Great old school food recipes served with Class at its best.
Very disappointed. I was looking forward to my favorite BBQ spare ribs. Came all the way from Brighton beach for the take out only. The ribs were almost half the usual size. Shameful.
Best Chinese food in Brooklyn. Clean restaurant,friendly,accommodating staff,varied selections on menu to accommodate everyones tastes.Reservations suggested for Christmas, Mothers Day and Fathers Day. Place is jammed if you dont make a reservation.
One of the best places for great Chinese food in Brooklyn! Been going there for years & it never disappoints. Service is excellent & food is always delicious. Try the Jumbo shrimp with walnuts..to die for!
Amazing food and service. Fast and friendly. Beautiful atmosphere and just overall a great experience.
I think China New Star is the best Chinese restaurant in the Marine Park/Mill Basin area. The food has always been perfect, great quality. The customer service is quick and friendly.
Food good to very good. Specials very good to excellent. Good service . efficient take out
The food is excellent. The waiters. Are very attentive. An if you have any allergies just let them know ahead of time.
Excellent service, delicious food. Nice atmosphere and ambiance. Only issue is parking.
This is the best Chinese food ever!!!!! The food is delicious and the service and atmosphere is excellent. When we eat there it feels like youre part of their family. Very warm and welcoming.
Place was pretty crowded. Service wasnt great. Food was nothing special. Ive had better.
The atmosphere was excellent. The food and service were very good. Would definitely go back.
New owner and quality of the food has changed, ordinary. New name is Ruan New Star. No notice of change in owner, new staff, no sign change and trying to ride on reputation of former ownership. Look at your receipt, prices up and new additional charges. But food is bland, portions reduced and packaging changed. Special spark and care is gone. Shame.
Great food & plenty of it. Prices are reasonable. Parking is a pain but its Flatbush Ave.
This isnt your usual Chinese take-out spot. Feel free to take-out (as I did on my last visit), but I highly recommend taking the family here for a night out. The staff is friendly and helpful. You will not be disappointed by the quality of food or portion size.
New management has greatly improved the quality of the food and service within the establishment. Will definitely be back soon!!! (The spare ribs were amazing)
Delicious dinner. Friendly atmosphere very gracious people. Always a pleasure to dine here. Been going for 37 years. Never disappointed
The best Chinese food in Brooklyn & Queens.
I enjoy the food at China New Star. Everything was fresh, delectable and made you crave for more. This authentic restaurant staff are friendly and happy to help. It is good for friends, families, groups, singles and date night. All will enjoy.
Used to be good -- no more. So many things were less than good, I would not even consider ordering again. It was a delivery-type order. Orange beef was good sauce made with yesterdays stale meat. Dried out white rice. Dumplings had too much dough. Wontons were huge containing too much pasta and not enough meat. Fried rice was too starchy. Shrimp with garlic sauce was good seafood and veges in awful sour sauce. Lo mein was okay. Theres too much competition for me to give them another chance.
Pretty good place. The pu-pu platter is a nice meal to share. The waiters dont really bother too much, but sometimes I feel there is a lack of attention paid to customers. Far from being a bad place though.
Generous Portions
Food was excellent!! Staff are always so Friendly! Love the new atmosphere 👌
Clean neat well decorated restaurant. Friendly staff. Service with a smile. Food is delicious and well prepared. Seating is good, comfortable and well spaced out.
The food is excellent Ive been eating hear since early 90s.
Standard sit down Chinese food in restaurant. Prepare to take home a doggie bag if ordering an entree.
Good food, but I have a nagging suspicion that the staff may be held there against their will (or might be paying off a debt they acquired to smuggle them here). My personal opinion. Cops seem to be eating there for free. Perhaps that is one way to maintain the status quo. The food is sooooo good, but I feel guilty eating here. Well, I cant prove it, its not my job, so I guess Ill keep eating the food. I suggest you try the Peking Beef & the Jumbo Shrimp with white sauce (God knows whats in the white sauce) and roasted Walnuts. Wonton soup is good. Drinks are cheap and good.
Best Chinese food ever and very good service.. we dont get chicken because it tends to be dry but its the best shrimp Nd beef dishes anywhere and their egg rolls and wanton soup. The best
It used to be better maybe because of the corona all they do is take out and delivery the food taste and feels different
Best Chinese food in this area. More on the pricey side but well worth tu.
Great food. Recent renovations add to the decor.
I eat in this spot a lot since I work right next to it. I have to say the service is always fantastic and they keep the spot neat constantly. Pricing is convenient and they serve big portions.
Check your food before you take out I placed an order of lo main and pork fried rice when I got home I was really surprised that the bowl that was to be lo main had 1/2 rice in it as if they ran out of noodles they just added the rice on top of the noodles I seid wow my first order as a new customer I didn’t expect that didn’t go back or call them to complain it would be a waist of time there reply would just be sorry I don’t understand! Fried Rice didn’t have that golden color it was mixed in wth white rice the flavor was just way to strong will not order again had to give a 1 star to leave this review other wise they get a non stars
I walked in with my family a party of 11 and before we ever tasted the food the waiter Johnny was so rude and unprofessional the table all agreed to leave. He spoke broken english, did not try to accomodate or answer any questions and literally grabbed the menu out my cousins hand while he was still reading it. The food looks great but i will never know. A horrible and disrespectful experience.
Its westernized Chinese food catered to a Western palette. Youre going to be playing safe eating here, nothing unique to offer. Its atypical of a fast food Chinese takeout place with decent decor and seating.
Great big place and never a line.They need a little variety in the menu but will change around a dish for you.A tad more expensive than ChinaTown-but not many sit down restaurants anymore, not into the greasy buffets, come sit for a real meal.Soup & Ice ceam-nice and comes with the dinner.
Very fast paced and very good food. Cooked to order, fresh. Great place to go to with a group so you can try many dishes.Go early cause there is always a line at the door.
Food is great, service the same. Large portions even when crowded, alwAys quick service. Wouldnt go anywhere else. Always fresh made!
Delicious..great quality food...great staff
We come back to Brooklyn as often as we can and we usually eat our way through the borough. Of course the pizza is great from places like L&B and the hot dogs at Nathans...But we are always trying to find the kind of Chinese food we grew up eating. After looking for The New China Inn on Flatbush Ave back in March...we stumbled on this place. All I can say is we ate there 3 times in 4 days. This is the real thing. Worth a trip from anywhere on earth. We could not believe our mouths. Go and do it now!
Old school family style Chinese restaurant. I like there food. It’s a hit & miss. It’s one of those restaurants you need to sit and eat in.
Best Chinese food around this area, the curry beef puffs are amazing and the General Tsos Chicken always is amazing with crispy batter and great flavor, and you can also get some mixed drinks.
The food is always fresh and flavorful, cashiers provides excellent customer service. I liked how clean it is and mood. Worth a try.
Good food, feel like home
Bland tasteless food..If you are looking for a bad experience in Chinese restaurant sit down, then this is the place to go. The food has no taste, the wontons in the soup are not cooked (the dough is half raw) and the best that they can serve up is not on par with the greasiest of the garbage fast food Chinese takeouts that line Flatbush Avenue along its entire length. This restaurant is an utter disappointment in every respect. I just find it amazing that it is usually full and has been around for so long. The food at Peking at 1581 Flatbush beats this place by a mile and Peking is one of the slimiest places around. However they can cook one thousand times better than China New Star. It is my fault that I keep on trying to give China New Star another chance but after my god awful meal there tonight I will most certainly never step through their doors again. Worst Chinese food in Brooklyn.
Tasty and plentiful food for lunch!Good service too! Was able to stay and chat with friends w/o looks of when are you leaving.
This spot sure knows how to please their customers. Always with a very kind attitude. The food is affordably priced, always delightful and neat.
Beautiful restaurant with very good American style Chinese food.
What are you guys saying? I cant believe my eyes on some of these posts. Im very sorry that your experience was not as good as every time ive been there since i was about 10yrs old and im 38. But i think China New Star is one of the best, if not the best old style Chinese food places there are in brooklyn. Yes a lil expensive, ill agree. but well worth it. The quality of their chicken, pork and other meats are top notch. The portions are easily for 2, Even the house duck sauce is to die for and yes they sell it by the pint to scratch my itch. I just dont know what more someone could possibly want from a chines food restaurant... Its a must for people that havent experienced it.
The food is excellent, nice size portions and reasonably priced. I would suggest you pack up your own leftovers.
Food was great we all had a wonderful dinner
Awesome. Best food. Huge portions.
Loved it. Huge portions. It has been along time since WE found an excellent old fashion sit down chinese restaurant
Good food, good service, nice portions, a little pricey but the food is always fresh! Been eating here 35 years never a complaint!!
My family and I went here after work one evening, the atmosphere is nice, and I appreciated the General Taos chicken using white meat and not some mystery meat like other cheap Chinese restaurants, but I could not get over the fact that everything tasted like it was burnt, it was like the chefs burnt something before and never cleaned up and just on cooking, the burnt taste was in the lo mein, and in the chicken and broccoli, my meal was fine, my wife and kids could not eat theirs
Great food. Wonderful staff. Cashiers are lovely and dedicated to quality customer service.
If you want to get American Chinese food, then this is a good place to go. Otherwise, try Chinatown. Portions are huge, flavouring is strong (salty/sweet...what have you), and they accommodate big groups.
Food was delicious. Arrived at table quick and hot. Very clean establishment staff nice very attentive .
I was very disappointed on this visit. The reason was cold tea ,the spareribs were tuff and did not taste the same. The fried rice was not the same,and the shrimps with walnuts had a different taste. Sadly to say I was very disappointed.
The food was amazing as usual and the staff was attentive but not overwhelming.
Food and service consistantly good. My favorites are shrimp and chinese vegetables, roast pirk chow fun and spicy ding.definitely worth trying. The have lunch specials mon thru fri.
Service is excellent. The staff is very friendly. The food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. Atmosphere is pleasant.
Very good food and good saff
Great food great service. And old time Chinese good. Delish.
Best spare ribs Ive ever had the pleasure of eating. An old style Chinese restaurant that is hard to find nowadays that is a nice family friendly establishment.
Friendly atmosphere. Most of the waiters are friendly and attentive. Food is good and reasonably priced.
Something happen in the last 3 months with the quality of food. Ribs used to be the best now i can say terrible ribs. Waiter was very rude . Bad experience
Loved the wonton soup and fried rice, didnt enjoy anything else. I guess its an ok place but just not for me. By the way prices arent too high.
Ive been here twice with friends. The portions are huge and the food tastes good. Plus it seems very clean.
Excellent food, as always! Fast, friendly service!
Best Chinese restaurant in New York City been going there for close to 40 years
Good spot in Brooklyn for Chinese food. Sit down service thats prompt and accurate. Ample size servings..go hungry.
Since my wife and I have moved over to Mill basin, we refuse to eat from any Chinese restaurant but this one! Food is always great! No lie!
Great service, clean restaurant. Lackluster food.
Always good food, good service and plenty of seating. Bring the whole town and/or family. Real, authentic Chinese cuisine.
Foods are great in this place! I love hereThank you so much, and hope to see you soon again.
The food was good, better than your average Chinese take out. I recommend the General Tsos shrimp and the ribs!
The food is not as good as it use to be. And the prices are a rip off. It’s not worth the price anymore I’ll never order from there again.
On a visit from Fl and the fam wanted Chinese. This place was so clean and fast service and excellent service. The prices were great being the fact it is in Ny. Great place to take the family
There are many great dishes being served daily. Service is top notch. Plenty of room for large gatherings.
The food is amazing! The staff is super attentive and friendly. This is the best asian restaurant ive been to in years!!!!
Good on the pockets, a bit crowded and always hard to get a crab leg the wait is crazy. But, otherwise its a decent buffet for it to be in Bklyn.
Great food and service Tasted like real meat with fresh veggies. Will be back

The best old fashioned Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn great fresh delicious food friendly waiters and staff best spare ribs ever old school the way only restaurants in China town still do it
My new favorite restaurant i love their food and the portions are large enough for two.
Food is pretty good. Order here when we are in the neighborhood.
Went with there yesterday and the service was excellent our waiter was very nice, we were celebrating a birthday of one of my clients..
Food was very expensive . Got little for tour money. Had chicken and broccoli . The chicken tasted like rubber . Horrible food. Eat at your own risk.
Very nice restaurant with exceptional food, been coming here for years without incident. Wait staff are friendly and professional, would come again!!!

Good food, friendly staff, large portions, neighborhood favorite.
The food is absolutely amazing and they have great drinks also. The service is top notch.
Popped in one Saturday evening for dinner to-go. Food was prepared quickly. Nothing too outstanding about the food.
Just Fabulous Chinese Cuinese. Excellent eats.
Home style dim sum with affordable pricing in a nice restaurant environment. Its no wonder this is a Michelin Star establishment!
Good food and dish size for lunch, not the most friendly staff)
The food is very fresh and delicious its prepared like the old way
Local sit down restaurant. Very good service. Great for family night out. Not expensive.

2022-04-15I am not from New York. It was a different way of ordering than we do in California... but food was good. Walnut shrimp was jumbo shrimp yumminess with broccoli crowns all around the serving plate. I got combination plate of chicken broccoli, pork fried rice, egg drop soup and a not so appetizing big egg roll. Another combination plate came with rice, wonton soup, an egg roll and entree of shrimp chicken and veggies. The crispy fried wrapper skins were an added bonus that came complimentary to our table. So good.Slightly more expensive than I anticipated but service was good.

2022-06-14What a waste of money. It was the worst Chinese food that I’ve every had. I don’t know if that restaurant is under new management from years ago, but they need to shut their door right away. We spent 150. 00 dollars for a bunch of lousy food. Whomever prepared our meal need to go back to culinary school. It was terrible. We ordered Young Chow fried rice, barbecue rip tips and Shrimp and broccoli. First, the shrimp were old, secondly, the rice look like a chocolate gummy mess and last, the ribs were cooked in vinegar.Oh my God you were warned. Stay away take this from me. You won’t be sorry! All of you who are giving China New Star a rating of a five or four have never had decent Chinese food before. If I could give it a zero I would! If you don’t believe me go on see for yourself. Part of this order was my sisters and she threw her food in the garage after she tasted it. Her food total was 69.00 and mine was 80.00 you do the math. It all adds up to disgusting!!!! Listen people any body giving a review after me are lying to the public . Please take my review Serious.

2018-11-08The food is consistent each time I visit this restaurant . The food is cooked fresh and my meal is always affordable and well worth the money.My personal favorite dishes at this restaurant are: The Pork Fried Rice, Wonton Soup and General Tsos Chicken.These dishes are always fresh , flavorful and well proportioned .As far as the service , I don’t have any complaints . After frequenting this restaurant for years I don’t have anything bad to say about this restaurant.
