Beryl D.

So glad I finally got to scratch the itch of wanting to try this place. I was in and out very quick and on a mission to try the raspberry beret and dumplings. I went with the bartenders recommendation for dumplings ain't got the wontons in chili sauce. It was pretty quiet here but with the cool aesthetic, I recommend.

Pork Buns
AlbinA P.

Decent place for a lunch/dinner. Cute place with on theme decor. Friendly service. Food was ok. Not blown away with the pork bao buns. Dumplings were decent. Chicken fried rice was delicious. As was the Mongolian beef and general Tso's chicken. The crispy cauliflower was not really crispy and not seasoned at all. All flavor, including salt, came from the sauce of choice. Basic egg drop soup.

Lo Mein
Jac B.

The decor is funky. The playlist is awesome. The service from Lacey was top tier. The food came out fast. The food was good but not enough to come back again. The soup dumplings were too doughy and not soupy enough, the chocolate bao were not good. The eggplant insides were perfect but the skins were so thick and fibrous and the sauce had very little flavor. The crab rangoon and eggroll were just ok. The wonton soup was not bad. The beef lo mein was actually good. There was a general lack of flavor and complexity to the dishes but overall, aside from the dessert, not bad.

Lo mein with steak
Amber B.

Really fun menu. Dumplings sampler comes out in a fun Steamer and comes with a lovely little dipping sauce and tongs. Very cute. I have tried everything in the veggie section and none disappoints. Kung Pao chicken and Moo Shu pork are also a good choice, but my absolute favorite? The enormous noodles in the chicken dan dan mean and the even larger portions. Service unfortunately is hit or miss. But other than that I enjoy to get it to go order drop in for a quick bite and sit at the bar at lunch as I work sometimes in the area. Bring your appetite.

The Food was Amazing Service is always good, my fav Authentic Chinese restaurant in Dallas

Food was delivered for lunch, so I'm basing my opinion solely on the food, not the atmosphere or service. I got the Chicken Kung Pao. The portion was small. I just feel like it is very overpriced for average Chinese food.

WONTONS IN CHILI SAUCE / 7 PCS

First time try, our best was Walnut Shrimp! Shrimp are coated and fried right. something you want to try. everything else was good Our server was great!

Fantastic Service from the moment you walk into this place. We were greeted and seated immediately and our server was with us within 2 minutes of being seated. The ambiance is pretty neat. It is kind of dark, but dimly lit with ambient lighting. For appetizers we ordered the Crab Rangoons. They were perfectly crispy and the inside crab mixture was fantastic. For my main course I ordered Moo Su Chicken and it was absolutely delicious! Probably the best Chinese food I have had in years! Great experience, I cannot wait to come back again! It was a Wokstar performance!!!

Cute bag I received with my to go order.

I ordered shrimp lo mein to go. It was a big portion and it had an amazing medley of flavors with just the right amount of spice. My order was hot and ready when I arrived to pick it up and the staff was very friendly. Definitely want to dine in soon!

xiaolong dumpling

DELICIOUS!!! This place is well decorated and is my new favorite chinese spot! The food is a great proportion if you come with a big appetite. Some plates are big enough for two to share. Their drink menu is also very tasty. Staff were friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back and tell my friends to try as well! 10/10

Ask the Community - WokStar Chinese

Does it have free wifi?

No why would it have wifi.

Do they have happy hour?

I think our server told us that it was from three until six if I remember correctly.

Do they have a lunch menu?

Yes it's a restaurant.

Is there typically a wait above an hour during the week, also what would you recommend- I look forward to coming here!?

Recommend making a reservation if you can, but I've been able to grab a same day reservation for lunch mid-week. If you are asking about dinner, not sure on the wait and would say try to get a reservation via OpenTable.

Do they offer gluten free options made with tamarin as opposed to soy sauce?

They have gluten free soy sauce you can ask to substitute to. Also most wok entrees that you can ask for no soy sauce

I'm a big fan of Chinese mustard, but beware: it will make you cry, both from enjoyment and from the pain of your sinuses lighting on fire. Worth it anyway. If you like egg rolls, they're a must. They're enormous and packed with the freshest ingredients. I always regret loading up on appetizers because I'm full before the real food shows up, and I do it every single time. I've had a lot of the noodle dishes and each one is better than the last. If you're a tea drinker, they have a huge selection. I'm sad to report that I ate too fast and only snapped pictures of the desserts. They were as exceptional as everything else. Service is A+. I just wish I lived a little closer. Or maybe not, because I'd gain 20 pounds. It's a must try. Trust me, you'll be back.

We ordered steam dumplings, which came out ice cold, vegetable egg foo Young, that was so salty it was hardly able to be eaten. The best part of the meal was a green tea ice cream. When I spoke to George, the owner, he said "so sorry" and swept it off. I honestly don't expect to pay these prices for such horrendous service and low quality food. I know many will disagree with me but for your money go elsewhere.

And wow, the taste is the exact same. The decor is the exact same. The people are the exact same. It was truly a feeling of nostalgia that's hard to describe. My favorite dish has always been, and still is, the bamboo shoots with pork. It is so fragrant, umami, and simply delicious. The west lake soup is also a classic done so well - pro tip to add white pepper to give it a little kick. The steamed pork belly was okay - sauce is flavorful (a touch salty) along with the preserved greens but the pork wasn't as tender as I had remembered it. The fish filets are fried to perfection, full of salt/pepper flavor, and pairs well with the jalapeños. If you don't like fish, you can get the same flavor with the pork version of this dish, which I also really like. The service can be a little slow because it's just 1 chef and 1 waitress who own the restaurant - same people that have run the show since I first came here probably almost 30 years ago! Incredible to see them still working so hard and serving delicious food. They'll never know how much their restaurant and food means to me!

The ambiance was good, people talking amongst themselves along with some music. We did like how the kitchen was open to see them making the noodles and buns fresh. We ordered the following: Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken, Spicy Mapo Tofu, Pan Fried Pork Xiao Long Baos, Pork and Shrimp Wonton Noodle Soup, Hunan Stir Fry Beef and Spicy DanDan Noodles. The Taiwanese popcorn chicken was a great appetizer, crunchy and flavorful. The spicy mapo tofu was very delicious, and it was spicy while being silky smooth. The pan fried Xiao long Baos had a sesame seed bottom that complimented it well, and best eaten with a little soy sauce and chili. The pork and shrimp wonton noodle soup had a clean and light broth with freshly made noodles. The Hunan stir fry beef was very delicious with the flavorful beef and veggies. The spicy Dan Dan noodles were also pretty tasty as well with the sauce. We just wished that it had more meat in the noodles, but the fresh noodles are delicious. The waitress was very attentive to us from making sure we had everything and answering our questions. We initially didn't plan to come here, but we were glad to come across this restaurant with the quality and service. Overall, our experience and food were great, and we will definitely come back again.

First, I ordered the Chinese Fried Chicken (half), which is supposed to be brined in soy and hoisin, then deep fried in a light batter. This chicken was no more brined than a rock in the desert, and it was just as dry, even the dark meat pieces. The steamed rice was fine, as was the beautiful bok choy. The dish, overall was a huge disappointment. The chicken lo mein was also a letdown, as it had an underlying sweetness that I've never experienced with this dish. Two bites were taken and it (along with the chicken) ended up in the hotel trash can. A couple of positives: I enjoyed the hot & sour soup, and the egg rolls tasted as if they were rolled in-house, which is a rarity these days. I live a few hundred miles down the road and don't get to downtown Dallas very often, so the odds of me patronizing this place again is already slim. But, in the event I find myself here in the future, I will avoid this restaurant.
