Star Kitchen

I haven’t had any other situation when it would take a place so much time to deliver food and have no explanation why 2 hours after I ordered food I still don’t have it. And they charged for delivery too!

What the hell did I eat here? I don’t even know what this was. I ordered orange chicken and what I got was quite literally what one would get if you just dumped some old room temperature orange chicken that had been sitting around in a fryer and over-​fried it just to make it warm again. It was carmellized «orange chicken» sauce around some dry shrivelled chicken jerky. I’ve worked at a fried chicken restaurant and this is exactly what you get if you take food that’s hours old and re-​fry it just to make it hot. There was a puddle of oil at the bottom of the container like they just dumped it straight from basket to bowl. They didn’t even try to disguise it by adding more sauce, it was dry. I’ve never tasted anything like it. It tasted like it tried really hard to be redeeming but something about it was off and ultimately unpleasant, plus there was just no chicken, it had literally fried so long it was a tough shrivelled slug swimming in whatever unholy old deep fried orange chicken batter it was fried in. I’ve also worked at a Chinese restaurant and it literally takes ten minutes to whip up some orange chicken, there was no ethical reason to serve me this strange frankenstein version of an ~armour square classic~. I’m not even mad I just feel violated.
The egg rolls were good tho. I guess this is just one of those places where you are really taking your chances on how much the employees give a crap at any particular moment.

My first time here and I had the Combo A. Orange Ck was so juicy and mouth full of flavor. Chicken fried rice was perfectly cook. Order a side of kimchi fries and damn that shit was in point. This is the second time I’m here and I order something call the star chicken. Man they made the chicken juicy as hell and mouth full of flavor. This is the new spot for late night snacks. New favorite item for me is star chicken and kimchi fries.

This place feels like another gourmet. Even though the place is small the food is good. The kimchi fries are super delicious. I would recommend coming here if you are craving for some late night snack.

I’m sad my dinner ended up being from this place. Star Kitchen is a new Asian fusion place in the Bridgeport area and I thought I’d give it a try.
Right when I walked in I was skeptical already. It was a Sunday night and the take out shop was dead. The one person that was working seemed so surprised I walked in – he really did jump a little when he saw me. This is more of a delivery place so I gave it a pass. Then I asked to see the menu and the guy didn’t speak English. That was fine for me, because I speak Cantonese (which was what he spoke) but I’m not sure how they do business. I ordered a Combo A and tried to used the 15% off check-​in that they offer on the Unilocal.He quickly said that it was not valid and after a few times of asking why not, he called who I assume is his boss who finally gave him the okay. The food was made pretty fast, I guess.
Combo A is supposed to come with an egg roll, hot and sour soup, chicken fried riced, and orange chicken. The serve gave me the food and it didn’t have any soup. So I asked if I could get some soup, but the server grabbed a soda and stuck it in the bag. I again asked him for a soup instead of a soda, but he really used his hands and shooed me away like a little kid.
I get home try to give the food a chance, but the food was ²⁄₅ just like the service. Looking at previous photos, they have really started to skimp on the food. I got a total of 4 piece of orange chicken. They were actually not bad, but seriously? 4 tiny pieces? The egg roll might actually just have been fried flour with some strands of cabbage inside. The rice was tasty but it was all from the grease they put.
Chinatown is a mile away and 1000 miles better than this place. I get it, they are the late night option. But no matter how late or hungry I am, I won’t be coming here again.

First time here!
Ordered the combo b and it is definitely feeling!
The appetizer kimchi fried were also very amazing and delicious! I finally have a go to spot if I ever crave for kimchi fries! Grub hub is also available & delivery!
Owners are also very nice :) best part of star kitchen that it is open until late at night; 2AM if you ever want some late night Asian cuisine!
Perks: street parking and outside patio to eat :)

Delicious kim chi fries!!! dont need to go that far for it.. close by home

My sister and I were looking for a quick bite to eat for dinner one night and we decided to try out Star Kitchen. The restaurant only consist of a kitchen and a open window for ordering. In the front, there are 2 seating area for dining in.
We decided to share an order of kimchi fries and a combo B which came with 2 crab rangoons, beef fried rice, black pepper steak, and hot and sour soup. The kimchi fries were good, but it doesn’t remind me of Korean kimchi fries. It had more Chinese flavors to it: soy sauce, plum sauce, and sesame seeds. The crab rangoons were ok, but was a tad overcooked which made the outside hard. The beef fried rice and pepper steak had good flavor but was more greasy than I would like it. Finally, the hot and sour soup was really watery which lacked flavor.
The value of what you get here is amazing. I also appreciate that they open until the wee hours of the night. But I wouldn’t come here on a regular basis for Chinese food since there are much better options in Chinatown which is only about 5 mins away.

After being very pleased with my first time ordering delivery i was slightly disappointed with my second time around.
I ordered the chicken pad thai which was unlike any pad thai I’ve had in the past. It was good flavor but super mushy and way too much onion. No peanuts. Definitely not like my usual pad thai. Also the crab ththe pooke rangoon was hard as a rock. The chicken fried rice was pretty good. I dont know if ill be ordering from here again.

Star Kitchen is meant to be a fast food Chinese/​Asian fusion shack. It literally a food take out place and it has Korean Kimchee fries and Pad Thai dishes. The only dish I was interested in was the kimchee fries.
Star Kitchen gets a four star rating because their food is good but their customer service is even better. We ordered several combos and they forgot to include the items that belong to the combos the cashier, who I think might own and run the business, corrected the order and also deliver the food to our door and included an extra beef dish.
The food is good but I have some suggestions about their food. While I feel everything had flavor it just one type of flavor. We ordered black pepper beef, mongolian beef and we had beef stew dishes. It all tasted good but it all made with the same sauce and the same vegetables, red pepper, onions and celery. I couldn’t tell one dish from the other besides the texture of the meat. The kimchee fries had the Chinese dried up shrimps that I will ask to leave it out next time. I feel those little dried up shrimp things shouldn’t be in the Kimchee fries it makes it weird and I don’t like it. In addition to all the beef and kimchee fries dishes we tried the salted pepper pork and the sesame chicken. It was good! I really liked the flavors it was delicious.
I would go back to Star kitchen, we would because the people work there are nice. I liked the young man in charge he is very friendly and customer service is good. It’s hard to find a Chinese own and run eatery business that has good customer service. So I’m glad have tried Star Kitchen and I would recommend this place to all those who are in the area and to check it out.
