Terrible … I order chicken wings from many other Chinese restaurants and never had a problem. I decided to give this restaurant a try because it was closer to my house. 1st these are jumbo wings that looks more like turkey wings, or wings on steroids 2nd I asked for extra crispy… these are not extra crispy…. I called the restaurant and asked for a refund or at least something else on the menu and they would not accommodate me so never again….

Their chicken fried rice is the most bland rice I’ve ever had in my life. A saltine cracker has more flavor than their food. I would only recommend this place to my white friends who lack taste buds.

Food quality dropped drastically. Watered down flavor.Food: 1/5

I really wanted to try this place. I go in and it is very cramped, old, and dingy inside. I stood at the counter waiting to place an order, and nobody came to serve me. They were busy on the phone from what I could tell handling personal business and could careless about a customer which equates to money. I will not return.

I’ve been ordering from China Star for years, across two different owners, and they are still the best Chinese takeout in Schenectady. I’ve also worked for them on and off for a couple years and can say they are some of the most decent business owners around. Simon is a true saint. As someone who has seen behind the scenes of how they work, I can assure you they work together like a real team and take even their most negative reviews very seriously. Their General Tso tofu is the best in town.

I'm not sure what has happened. Not sure if it was the pandemic but the food quality in this place has declined drastically. Not only are they clumsy with packaging the food my food container was actually turned on its side instead of flat but they are hard of hearing too i requested no soy sauce included and of course it was included and leaked onto the food since it was packaged nicely. The food also now taste under seasoned and watered down....it's gross now. I'm sad and disappointed and will not go back unless I hear word of mouth that they've returned to their better ways. Bummer.

China Star has become my go to Chinese place, and I eat Chinese once a week pretty much. Hot, fresh food. Very flavorful. Tastes like it is freshly made, not from frozen. Prices are reasonable.

My family and I like to go there because they have the right kind of food and different variety. Parking: Therea plenty of parking there.

Give them a try. I promise you'll never order from another Chinese place around here again. the only Chinese restaurant around that I can eat the whole order and not have to stop halfway through cuz my stomach hurts or I feel full. Nothing's greasy the vegetables are vibrant color not brown peas. I just got bourbon chicken a soda and egg roll and fried donuts for $12. Good price good food oh not to mention the delivery drivers awesome. She told me 45 minutes they knocked on my door in less than 20. Keep up the good work
