    From top to bottom, Hunan chicken, kung pao chicken, and black pepper chicken
    Kenny D.

    The food was a little hit-and-miss for me. The black pepper chicken was a big hit. While it was much more sweet than pepper, it had a very nice flavor and made we want to go back for more. On the miss side, the kung pao chicken was odd. This is my favorite Chinese dish, and this was quite different in flavor than any I have tried (and not in a "good" different kind of way). There was also a periodic flavor that made me pause, sniff the food, and wonder if it was a bit on the bad side. I couldn't finish even half a bowl of it, and that's frustrating. The hunan chicken, while resembling chicken and broccoli given how much broccoli and how little carrots were in the dish, also had a nice flavor that made it a pleasurable meal. Lastly, on the miss side, for 3 dishes I got 3 small sides of rice. This was not nearly enough rice for 3 meals. The small side is enough for a serving of food, but when the container can be easily split into 2 filling servings, one baby rice container is insufficient. Rice isn't nearly the most expensive cost that goes into a meal so please be a tad for generous! Mostly good food with a huge ovation for the black pepper chicken, an approving head nod for the hunan chicken, and a significant thumbs down for the kung pao and rice portion.

    Excellent with normal orders, however the lunch specials are a joke. All rice and no protein.

    Steamed chicken broccoli with sauce on the side for all of the ppl who wants to limit their salt intake

    Great place better then Benny's I had steamed chicken and broccoli with sauce on the side. I sure wish that i had an option for steamed brown rice but I didn't . I didn't have to wait my order was ready when I picked it up. I'm thankful that you open at 10:45am because my lunch break is at 10:30am Customer service and hospitality was great and I didn't the guys name that rang me up but he had a tattoo on his neck. See you soon

    Hunan Star is consistently clean and fresh--our top choice for Chinese food in Southern Maryland. Every visit delivers hot, delicious meals and fresh sushi. We've never had a bad experience, whether dining in or ordering takeout, and we've done both many times. As someone who really values cleanliness, I appreciate the extra effort they put into maintaining a spotless, showroom-like environment for their customers.

    To go order so I only received a glimpse of the service . But the first impression was very customer service oriented. I had shrimp toast with was bite sized and tasty . The chicken egg fu yung was fresh it could have used a little more flavor and gravy . I will definitely go back

    We came here on a Saturday for lunch specials. This was my first time trying this establishment and I was very pleased. We got a few lunch specials to try and the portions were great. I'm curious to know if these portions will be the same if you order to go. We got two general tso chickens with fried rice (one mild and one spicy), a shrimp lo mein and chicken chow mein (I believe that's what it's called). We also got two drinks which were very strong. All in all, this was a nice outing that was inexpensive and left us with more than enough food to take home. Our food came out piping hot and the owners were very attentive to us. This is a small mom and pops spot that is very causal but they do have a party room. My only complaint was there was a fly so I was constantly swatting to ensure it didn't land on my food.

LIKE THAT *Lunch Special* Their Mandarin Combo ($13.95 with chicken, beef, shrimp, broccoli, peppers, fried rice, a spring roll, sweet n sour sauce, & mustard sauce). I wasn't mad at this meal at all. Healthy tasting shrimp, chicken, & beef, & everything was nicely seasoned!! STAMP!! Shrimp Tempura ($8.50 lightly battered & fried shrimp). Well fried , crispy, & actually tasty!! STAMP!! Shrimp Toast ($10.95 a buttery fried toast with shrimp inside). This too was tasty, nicely fried, & good!! STAMP!!

    First off I want to start off by saying the staff here was incredible. I was with my family and did…read morenot have the opportunity to get names, but every single staff member I saw was working hard, diligently, and with haste. Our server immediately greeted us with a great big smile, she took our drink orders and described some of the drinks to us. We put in an order for 2 spring rolls and 2 eggs rolls which were to die for. Perfectly crunchy, crispy, and full of flavor with great dipping sauce! They came out piping hot and delicious. I also got egg drop soup which simply cannot be beat. The soup was not too thick and not too thin or watery. The green onions were fresh. The crisped wontons had just the right amount of crunch. Together the dish was savory and delightfully flavorful. Now, my guest can often be difficult to please (as food must be extremely specific), but it's not ever usually a problem that a "good restaurant" can't handle. They handled it perfectly. We got the chicken with two winter veg, no sauce or mushrooms and add water chestnuts. It came out exactly that way. Perfect. Not only perfect but steamed to perfection. I also got the chicken w winter veggies--with sauce-- which is a brown gravy. What can I say OTHER than it was also perfect!! The meat was cooked to tender, not dry. The veggies were bright and deliciously tender, but still had a gentle crunch (the ultimate dish style!). My husband got the orange chicken and the spice was absolutely divine. The orange chicken sauce was pungent and sweet. If you like heat, this one is for you!! The chicken was crispy under the layer of aromatic, REAL orange flavored sauce. My other guest got the Mandarin combination plate, which featured a host of veggies, surf and turf meats, and a spicy brown sauce on top. Again, meat and veg cooked to perfect tenderness, with the veggies snapping and crunching just enough but tender enough to enjoy. Drinks were a teapot for the table (which may have been a bit strong for my guests, but I drank it!) A coconut punch (non alcoholic), which is a virgin iced Pina Colada. I didn't expect that, but I still guzzled it down. It came in a parrot glass, too!! So fun!! The rest of the table got coke and tea and were just as good. (Yes I tried everything). And we came here because we've been seeing their really amazing TikToks and want to contribute to bringing this WONDERFUL restaurant back into the folds of the community and wrap them in support. I'd give them 10 stars if I could.
