Jimmy my wife says hello , you make her night everytime we (come). Hands down the best Chinese food on the island, I recommend eating inside - take out is a little different. When your in person it's just a different experience, the food is hotter, more moist, and tastes better than bringing it home. I recommend the lobster sauce , and pork fried rice. The lady who works the phone is strict, dominant, but she will make sure everything is correct . Great servers who are there to make sure your night was the best. A true Staten Island classic throughout the years, and I appreciate the fish tank. read more

Always a good spot to go to on staten island on Forest Avenue. The service is always friendly. The food is great, my favorite is the salt n pepper shrimp or the pepper shrimp. They have a bar too, if your looking to hang as a group it works. Full menu and a great fish tank in the main dining area. Prices are moderate. read more

As always great old school meal from soup to entree still get some ice cream if you have the room They give great service and price was reasonable read more

Haven't been here in so long. Decided to order pick up. It's a bit on the pricey side of Chinese takeout. Upon entering the establishment has a pick up area on the left then to the right is a bar area and the dining area. Staff was friendly. My order was ready, however they didn't provide any utensils. Veggie Lo Mein- not so much flavor. Chicken Wings w/ French fries- don't order fries here. Wings were good though. Pepper Steak w/ Onions- it was good even though the ratio with the meat and veggies was a bit off. Pork Roast w/ mixed veggies- it was my least favorite unfortunately. It wasn't good. Shrimp w/ Lobster sauce- my MIL said it was good. It's definitely a spot that is missing a lot of flavor. I probably won't order from here anymore. read more

China New Star has the best Chinese food on Staten Island. I love their spare ribs and their shrimp fried rice is absolutely delicious.

This place is run down dirty and the food is bland pre cooked reheated . No flavor. Nothing was fresh about anything in this restaurant. I would never come here again. Gnats fruit flies and flies all over the place . The waitress was nice but that was about it. Run down furniture,dirty table cloths. No music or anything playing it's was so quiet ppl were whispering at their tables. There was a really annoying family of 4 in the center on the dinning room on their phones watching shorts with the volume high it echoed throughout the entire restaurant because it was sooooo quiet. I wouldn't even do take out here . STAY AWAY read more

Ordered party platters takeout for sons confirmation party, the party trays were plenty full, and good tasting and worth the money, they did a great job-thank you read more

Food was ok. Not a fan of the fried rice. Delivery was good. I'm not sure of the dining room service.

been coming here and taking out for many years food always vert consistant. always very good and a large selection reccomond china zstar

No ice cream or pineapple included in lunch special. Food not as great as it was before Bidenomics. Is it under new management? They increased prices understandably in todays economy, but took away the little dessert treat. Will ve looking elseware after 10 yrs! read more

Where do I begin? We decided to visit this restaurant because after 30 years on Staten Island, this was one place we had never eaten. When we walked in the first thing I noticed was how old and dated the place looked. I was so surprised. Although the winter, It was sooooo cold inside. There were 3 tables occupied and everyone had their coats on. The waiter also wore a coat and looked like anyone coming in off the street. Hmmmmm! Anyway, we ordered shrimp with broccoli and Lo mein. Duck sauce and noodles along with complimentary soup was provided while we aired for our main course. Our food arrived pretty quickly. We fixed our plates, tasted the food. The shrimp a bit tough, the soup bland and the lo mein very under seasoned. With a full plate of food and more on the serving tray, we prepare to enjoy our lunch. And here's where things go left!!!!! All of a sudden there was massive screaming coming from the kitchen. You could hear dishes breaking, more screaming and the waiter running. Everyone looked around in fear. We asked what was happening and then saw the cook run out of the kitchen with his phone in his hand. "Should we run?" We asked him but he kept walking and screams continued to come out of the kitchen. The waiter never came back at all during the yelling and screaming and no one could tell us if we were safe. Finally the people at the booth in front of us got up and left in a feverish rush. We asked again should we leave because the cook again came out with his cell phone, didnt speak pointed towards the door. We finally got up leaving our food and ran out fearful of what was happening. As we stood around the corner from the restaurant in shock and scared, the waiter ran out and asked us to please pay the $16.00 bill. We looked at him like he was crazy. We went back inside and was confronted by the cook who never spoke to us, pointed at the bill and still had his cell phone up to his ear. I mentioned how afraid I was about what had happens and that I was still shaking. I told him that I don't eat my food because I was so scared never knowing if I was in danger. I told both the cook and waiter that in this day and age, nothing like that should ever happen within any food establishment. This is particularly the case when the fear is caused by the kitchen and cooking staff. After expressing my shock at my experience, the cook walked away. I eat out often and have NEVER experienced anything like this and I will NEVER visit this place again. I'm giving this place a 1 star rating. read more

This is our Chinese restaurant. We come here from Bergen Count, NJ. I used to live in Great Kills. The squid and shrimp with salt and pepper appetizer is unbelievable. You can't find food this good in other restaurants. We come here about once a month. The people are very nice as well. Nothing better than an old school Chinese restaurant. i also recommend the chicken and eggplant dish as well as squid with broccoli. read more

Dirty, small portions and old restaurant. Best part was the noodles you dip in duck sauce, hot mustard.

Excellent food the waters are very nice. Nice atmosphere never grip about tips. Prices are res enable. Good selection very authentic Chinatown style. Service is excellent. read more

Tasty American style Chinese food. Had a Pu-Pu platter, General Tso's chicken, spare ribs, and soup. The General Tso's chicken was perfectly spicy with a crunch to the exterior and soft and juicy inside. Spare ribs were plump and meaty. Hot and sour soup was just right. The decor was comfy and clean. There's also a bar. A convenient parking lot is in the back. Worth a visit! read more

Great wonton soup and clean old school Chinese restaurant. Nice people work here. Eg rolls are great and portions ate generous.

Good food. They really need an updated atmosphere though. If you love Chinese food, it's the place to go and their is a bar as well.

Called for delivery asked for a combination platter and some dim sum. Didn't get my combination. Platter called just to state the fact that I didn't get it but I was fine with it and she argued with me !! then I had my dim sum, which had this sauce on it that reminded me of Chef Boyardee when I was a little girl it was beyond disgusting - it was a thick gravy Didn't bother to complain cause I didn't want to get yelled at again lol but will never order from them - oh and I did have the sesame chicken which was beyond dry and chewy. ‍ Just really disgusting. & their menu states fine dining! STOP read more

There was no one in the dining room at 4pm. I should've taken that as a sign but still wanted to try it. My sister got a tofu vegetable dish that she said was alright. I got the roast pork lo mein with a side of fried rice and wonton soup. The fried rice wasn't good at all. The lomein would've been better if there was more sauce on it and didn't taste burnt. There was barely any meat in the middle of my wonton. It looked dried out. My friend got boneless spareribs and he also said his meal was alright. The server was attentive and the food came out quick but won't be going back. read more

Very affordable and delicious food. They don't skimp out on the proteins like most chinese restaurants do these days. Delivery is always quick and hot and the delivery guy is always courteous. I don't know why it took me so l9ng to order feom them seeing they are pretty close to my house. read more

Always an excellent meal with excellent service. One of my favorite restaurants. Dining in is always a pleasure with kind and helpful staff, and food always comes out fast. Delivery is also very fast, and food always arrives without any mess. For these great prices, you get large portions of food, so you'll have enough for a good meal And leftovers. Always a good recommendation!! read more

The best Chinese food on the island. It's different it tastes way healthier! It doesn't feel too greasy.

This is some AWESOME Chinese food! Yesterday my family got general pso's chicken and shrimp in lobster sauce lunch specials and it was right on the money. They gave very generous portions plus you get a soup with the massive amount of food they give you. We got egg drop wonton soups which are usually very gluey at most places but not here, it was smooth and more soupy and the wontons were filled well and not too doughy like most places will prepare them. Another great touch was that the chef threw shreds of pork and scallions into the soup which you rarely see anymore! Moving onto the entree, again both were really well prepared and they didn't skimp! In the shrimp with lobster sauce they gave a generous portion of shrimp that was cooked very well and the sauce, again, was not as gluey as you would typically see at other places! The chicken was not too sweet and was well cleaned, no mouthfuls of breaded and fried fat! We chose pork fried rice, really yummy and what makes they pork fried rice special is that they actually serve a decent amount of pork. Most Chinese restaurant will diced up the pork into tiny pieces but we got chunks in the rice. I think what really sets this place apart is that they absolutely do not cut corners and skimp on their food, you can tell that they keep the customer at the center of their success. Eating from here is always a treat for my family, I just wish we lived a bit closer! read more

Great food, the server was very sweet and attentive, very comfortable seating and the tables are spaced nicely.

I usually come to New Star when i visit my Grandma on Staten Island. They have good lunch specials and I have been pleased with the food on many occasions. The staff is friendly and service is good. Being from Jersey anything that New York has or Staten Island for that matter- when it comes to Chinese or Italian is far superior. I'm not saying this is the best Chinese spot on Staten Island but its pretty good. My go to is the general tso lunch special paired with an egg drop soup. read more

The water was so nice. The food is nice too. Nice selection like being in china Town. read more

YUK! My friend claimed this was the best Chinese food out there! We ate here about a month or so ago. Now my co-workers are raving about it. It is sub par food. Greasy, bland average Chinese food. Our waiter was nice and the service was also descent However before we even finished our soup he brought out our main course. I will quote Simon Cowel from American Idol..... "it was forgettable....." read more

The food was really good. Big portions for the price. Service could have been better though.

This place has excellent chinese food and pretty decent drinks (I recommend the "Coco Loco") buuuutttt their customer service can be pretty iffy. WARNING: DO NOT come to here 30-40 min. of closing. Although they WILL seat you, on more than one occasion we've had to witness a waiter cursing and yelling in Chinese. (We assume this is because all the waiters usually leave together and they fear they will miss their ride) One time a waiter went as far as to stare at us during our ENTIRE meal, throwing the "evil eye" our way. This can be pretty disturbing. read more

You can't go wrong with the dinner combos - entree, soup, egg roll and ice cream- for 11-13 bucks. The food was very good (sesame chicken combo), but the wonton soup was delicious and my favorite part of the meal. We had great service, the restaurant was clean, and overall we had a nice time. The bar area was a bit loud but we didn't hear much from where we sat. read more

This place was a huge disappointment. Here is why: my husband and I spent all day moving from out of state to Staten Island. We drove here all night and unpacked all day. Throughout the day we commented about "gorging some Chinese food" tonight after we are done. Basically we built up the excitement to binge on some good ole fashion American Chinese food and it didn't even come to close to satisfaction. Luckily we were so exhausted that we inhaled it, anyhow. So it is edible. However, while eating this meal, surrounded by boxes, (and with tiny lobster forks because they didn't provide any plastic utensils), I asked my husband if we've ever had worse Chinese food. Maybe we were too exhausted to accurately run through all the Chinese food we've had in our almost 7 years of marriage, but neither of us could think of worse. Here's the rundown according to us: Bbq ribs - burnt, very bitter tasting General Tsos - bland chunks of dry chicken with soggy, soggy covering and watery sauce. House Lo Mein - again, bland. Crab Rangoons - center was super runny. Looks like we are still on a quest for good Chinese in this area. read more

A little far from my house but worth the trip. Good food and the most important thing...they received an "A" rating from the Board of Health so I at least it's clean and healthy. Staff is friendly and I've never left dissapointed. One thing I DON'T recommend are the eggrolls. I love eggrolls but the eggrolls here always come out very greasy. read more

No sauce at all. Damn near choked on the dry rice or even the dry sesame chicken i ordered. Never again.

Originally I had given this restaurant 4 stars but they must've went through some changes. The last time I called they told me that I was too far for delivery and when I tried to tell her I've been receiving it for just about 15 years the girl on the phone hung up on me! When I called back she was rude and still denied me. We tried once again another time and the food was not tasty.. but they did deliver! So I'd suggest keep looking.. We are.. read more

This place is...terrible. We got stuck on Memorial Day looking for some lunch when everything else was closed and decided to give this place a try. It is crap. We got the lunch specials and nothing really tasted right. We had beef chow fun and Ja Jiang Mien. Sounds like it's pretty cool that they have "real" Chinese food, eh? Not really. This place is terrible and it was easily the worst meal I've had in ages. No one should be caught coming out of this restaurant. read more

Food is delicious and very reasonably priced! The chicken is actually chicken and you can get a cheap glass of wine to go with your meal. There's plenty of seating and the staff is nice too read more

China New Star - Half way started but it's too delicious to wait !! - Chinese Near Me - Staten Island, New York

I ordered dinner from here tonight, and ordered shrimp with broccoli for my husband and myself. It only took the first bite of the shrimp to tell that it tasted like actual rubber. We didn't touch anything else from our order and called to explain what had happened. The woman on the phone was incredibly aggressive and inconsiderate and literally said "Well, what do you want me to do?", she then explained that they had been cooking shrimp all day with no complaints, as if that should be a sign that our issue with our order was invalid. We were told a manager would call us back, and after 45 minutes of not getting a call (we would have waited longer, but they close at 10:00 and it was 10:05), we finally called back only to get onto the line with someone with an even more horrendous attitude than the first. I have never, ever, been spoken to with such blatant disgust and I also have never heard someone curse as profusely as the woman casually did while telling us that it was essentially our problem and referred us to a Chinese food place up the street from us before hanging up. We threw away over $35 worth of food tonight and I will never think of ordering from here again. Please save yourself your money and your time and order from somewhere with better food and better service. read more

Great food and cheap prices . There chicken wings and fried rice the best . Great location and friendly staff

Placed an order for pickup. The woman on the phone was short with me, but I arrived 10 minutes later. They were extremely busy but my order was ready to go. The man at the front desk was extremely polite. The food was still hot when I got home and they gave me a generous helping of sauce. Read many positive reviews on here and decided to try it out. Was pleasantly surprised, I am extremely picky. I ordered well done sesame chicken and plain fried rice. The chicken was still slightly crispy with the right amount of sauce. read more
