Every entree or appetizer I order, pleases my taste buds. There Crab Rangoon is the bomb. You get 8 big pieces, so if you're a single person, it easily can be a meal. I've added an Egg Roll to the order and presto, I've got a meal. Their Egg Rolls are crisp and crunchy. My favorite main dishes are; General Tso, Beef & Broccoli, Orange Chicken, Hot Pepper Chicken and Beef Fried Rice. Today, I'll add the St Paul Sandwich. When I first moved to the Eastside of the river, none of the Chinese restaurants offered a St. Paul. Just recently, China King added them to the menu and they're doing a fine job preparing them. Since moving over here and dining at China King, the staff has revolved and improved. Most speak broken English, but they can still take and get your order prepared correctly. They may not be personable and super friendly, but your food will be delicious.

Shrimp Lo Mein - Not only is this lo mein great but the amount of shrimp you get will make you keep coming back for more.

I think sometime in the near future, I'll try dining in. I frequently change my entree, but I always get one egg roll and an order of crab rangoon. The egg roll is larger than most Chinese restaurants. I like that it's super crispy and the inside is packed full. The crab rangoon comes with four pieces and they'll ask you if you want a side of sweet & sour sauce. If you say yes, you'll get a small cup of the red sauce like when you order Sweet & Sour Pork or Chicken. They don't give you those small packets like other restaurants. My usual go to entrees are always Beef and Broccoli or General Tso's Chicken. Both of them are very good. I do the B&B when I'm trying to eat healthy Chinese. The beef is tender and the broccoli is soft, but still has a little snap to it. When enjoying the Beef and Broccoli, I have white rice. The General Tso's Chicken has a lite crispy coating and the sauce blends perfectly with fried rice, instead of white rice. Service is over the top friendly.

My order for the evening was; Beef & Broccoli with Fried Rice. I also had, Crab Rangoon (4) and an Egg Roll. The egg roll was super crisp and filling was packed tight. I loved the crunch when I bit into it. The crab rangoon pockets were filled with the creamy sauce and fried to a soft golden color. The Beef and Broccoli was a nice change from my typical order of General Tso. The beef and broccoli was tossed in a rich beef sauce and also had sliced carrots. Both veggies were prepared to the point where they were soft, but still had a good snap. The beef was super, super tender. There was so much sauce, I scooped some it over the fried rice for extra flavor. The staff is super perky. They all said, hello and welcome when I entered the restaurant. Even the cooks, greeted me. I like how you can see into the kitchen from the ordering counter, it is super clean and that makes me feel good. I pass two other Chinese restaurants on my way to Hong Kong House, but it is worth the drive. They have an app for ordering and rewards and I'll be downloading it, very soon.

It has curry in it, just in case you're not into that. We had pork chow mein and the slabs of pork were great! Big chunks. Dark fried rice, St. Paul Sammy, pork egg rolls cooked to a perfect crisp. I really have 0 complaints. Everything was above average. This isn't 3 Michelins stars kind of good, but it's 5 Stars on Yelp good. I'm hard of hearing so I needed my wife to help hear the woman behind the counter. She was great! Very helpful and even threw an extra bag of crab Rangoon. What she didn't know is that's my wife's favorite and it was her birthday dinner. She just wanted Chinese take out from a new place. So off to Star we went and they couldn't have done it any better. I'm so glad we went and will definitely be back. Now... ambiance is EXACTLY what you'd want from a take out Chinese place. The door bell is perfect and you'll understand when you go! Just embrace it. They do! All in all, 5 China Stars, will return. Enjoy!

The food is always fantastic. The lunch specials bring you a lot of food for a low price. Depending on the size of your order, crab Rangoon or egg rolls are tossed in for free (only for sizable orders, don't expect it at the $10 level). The crispy chicken is my favorite, and I will always order it. My families favorite way to eat crispy chicken is straight from the fridge, so we always make that an additional order. In reference to other reviewers, I have never had an issue with delivery. It's always prompt, if it's running late it's within the 10-15 minute range. The owners and staff are some of the nicest people in the world, although the language barrier can be difficult with a few of the servers. All in all, I have eaten their food hundreds of times over the years. My order has been wrong a handful of times, but they've always made it right. Honestly, with the amount of times I have eaten from there, a handful of times is extremely low. Everyone makes the occasional mistake.

Ambience is a typical strip mall restaurant, but definitely on the better side. Service was friendly and despite a few minor snafus - which they handled with grace - service was good. I would rather have a service snafu handled with grace than a perfect service from an attitudinal jerk, wouldn't you? The food is where it shines. Check out the specials. We had a couple of specials and a couple of items off the menu. We split all of it and took home leftovers. The first special we got as an appetizer was Thai crab cakes. These were crab cakes not so fake breadcrumbed sugary nightmare. Real crab with almost no filler. They were small and fried (no greasy). Served with a flavorful red curry sauce that was delicious and complex. Topped with flash fried fresh basil. This was a perfect dish. We also had fresh spring rolls, pad prik with chicken, and crab fried rice. It was all delicious. The crab fried rice is also real crab. With two pepsi colas and a good tip, it was still under $80. Highly recommend. .
