Oriental Star in Watterson Park - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Rice with shrimp real good one, thank you guys 👍

I ordered a regular chicken fried rice, the chicken had no seasoning at all. 😭 the rice was alright. She cooked it really quick, but no one was in there 👀 that should be a sign

Typical Chinese restaurant where you order at a counter and either eat in or take out. I thought the food was mediocre at best. Prices very reasonable. It is like many Chinese restaurants we have found while traveling. In a shopping center near the highway and near local hotels. If we lived here I would not eat here again.

Everything we've ordered here has been delicous. Bourbon chicken is 10/10, sauce is so good. Hot braised chicken is made just they made it at that great little Chinese takeout place on Broadway back in the 80s-90s. Oriental Star still has the big eggrolls. Seems like all of the restaurants serve teeny-tiny eggrolls with a stingy amount of cabbage. Call in your order and it's ready in about 15mins. Lunch special is two meals for me. Egg foo yung lunch special is three meals! Restaurant is tidy but we always get takeout. Never had a wrong order in 10+ years. ❤️❤️❤️ Love this restaurant!❤️❤️❤️

Good hot food at lunch but late afternoon the rice was old. Only go during lunch

The crab Rangoon is the best BUT the chinese dishes I have tried here are very flavorless and bland. Sad.

So, I wanted some Chinese food and so i googled location and I found this hole in the wall place. Taste is on point. Quick because I'm on my lunch break. For a small restaurant they met my expectations. So glad they are close to my house. Today Oriental Star gets my ⭐

I've been eating here for over 15 years. The owners are kind and work hard to make sure you are getting well-cooked food.

Went for carry out on Christmas Eve. At the time I was the only customer. How sad! The Asian food was wonderful! Everything was piping hot when we brought it home. The egg roll was crisp and perfectly fried. The Hot and Sour soup was both. The Egg Foo Young was filled with fresh vegetables, likewise the Fried Rice. We will return and this restaurant deserves your patronage. You will not be disappointed.

Got General Tso's Chicken. It was just ok. Not much spice to it at all. Also wanted Crab Randgoon, but when they said it does not come with Sweet and Sour sauce, I canceled that. I do not understand any Chinese restaurant not serving Sweet and Sour with the Crab Rangoon. Definitely won't come back.

The best Chinese you can get in Town period. Big portions Rangoon is delicious egg rolls are the best and they are nice and polite. Highly recommended

Undercooked rice, did not tenderize meat. I wonder where are all the four-star reviews come from?

I CANNOT recommend the pork egg foo young lunch special. It is loaded with salt 🧂, and my blood pressure sky rocketed to an immediate headache and a salty taste in my mouth. I stopped here to place a to-go order in between appointments. This is my first and last visit. I went online to look for ways to decrease salt intake. I immediately went to Walmart for a banana and apple cider vinegar 😐 to go with my water.

Very recently open to sit inside- not much going on after 2+years pickup only. Lunch specials are great value. I love the beef or shrimp lo mien, egg rolls, crab rangoons.

Absolutely worst food I’ve ever had! I was an Executive Chef for 42 years and never like to harm restaurant owners but this is just bad food made with cheap ingredients. Don’t waste your money!

The only good thing i can say is that the food was hot. Other than that, the worst orinetal food i have ever tasted! The rice tasted like it was cooked in bleach water, chicken was hard chewy and brown. The egg roll could have been used as a club it was so hard. If i wasn't on my lunch break to go get the food, i would have taken the food back and asked them if they would eat it. And im sure they wouldn't. I don't know where all these good reviews are coming from. Maybe my standards are too high.

These folks make excellent food!!

Everything I had was delicious. Definitely impressed!

Saw this place on maps so I dropped in. Definitely not a dine-in restaurant although you can eat here. It's more of an order for pick-up place. I had the shrimp lo-mein and dumplings. Both were very good. Worth the stop if you want Chinese for lunch or dinner.

Last minute order, food prepared very quick and exactly to my liking. 3* on atmosphere since it was take away. Will def be back to try more

I love this please so much and the food was good and good service they are nice people and I love the food it was tasteful

Order online a general tso’s and end up with a COLD chicken Lo mein😡😡 call the place and told me i was wrong that they gave me general tso’s

The best Chinese food chicken shrimp fried rice SPICY with an egg roll is AMAZING

Great sized portions for lunch and dinner. I recommend beef lo mein

Worst Chinese food I have ever had im from Chicago on a work trip this is the worst crab Rangoon’s we’re good but the food just terrible just awful

Hands down the best Crab Rangoon in the Ville. The Bourbon Chicken and Orange Chicken are also top notch. Fair prices for the quantity and QUALITY of food. 10 out of 5 stars.

When I try a new a Chinese restaurant, I judge them on how good they make crab Rangoon, steamed dumplings and chicken-on;a-sick. My expectations weren't high since so many have failed the appetizer test, but Oriental Star far far exceeded my expectations! This is my new favorite restaurant! The chicken was tasty and not hard (still juicy), the dumplings were firm and not soggy and the Rangoon were fat and tasty, I'd give it 6 stars if I could . . .

This is my favorite chinese restaurant in Louisville. They have the best lo mein, crab ragoon, and Gen Tau Chicken.

The food was very good I loved the crab ragoon

Discovered this little gem while in town for some training classes. Tasty food at great prices! Hot and sour soup is my fav and it didn’t disappoint 😋Fast friendly service! This restaurant is take out or delivery at the moment.

EGG DROP SOUP is the best ! The SPRING ROLLS are NUMBER ONE across this city ! Been eating here for 20 years

We love Oriental Star we go here a few times a week.Great Food,Great Staff,Fantastic Food.

We ordered two lunch specials and they only gave us one, so we had to wait an extra time to get the other one

I love this place. I order from them all the time!! They do not disappoint!

Was not as good as I thought it should be. Definitely will not order the shrimp and broccoli again. It was decent.

I work close to this Chinese restaurant so I get it fairly frequently. Prices are reasonable and food is always good. Portions are a good size so go hungry.

I've always enjoyed their food when I lived in the Newburgh area in 2002. The staff are nice and courteous. I still stop by there and pick up my go to meal from time to time.

Very nice meal had enough for left overs yhe next day.

I go here everytime I want Chinese. I usually order the Kung Pao chicken, extra spicy, and it is fabulous. Everything that I order here is delicious. The staff is friendly and they've never gotten my order wrong.

Very safe no contact pickup. Clean place, friendly. Loved the lo mein! Veggies were just crunchy enough, plenty of sauce on them. Dumplings were fantastic and the dipping sauce was on point! Chow mei fun s delish. Don't think I would get the chow mein again though.

The food is ALWAYS hit and delicious!!! Best Chinese food in Louisville!!@

I had an enjoyable meal here. The cashier was nice. The food came out quickly and was plenty hot, though it would have been after any lunch rush. I would definitively eat here again.

It's fire. I worked in the Watterson towers for a bit and I miss the Orange chicken from this place. Made fresh, has fresh orange peel in the mix. 10/10 value and taste.

Food is excellent eat here all the time and they never disappoint

Open practicing safe precautions!

They have the best fried rice hands down.

La comida se entregó caliente y fresca. Las porciones de comida eran grandes y muy sabrosas. Excelente relación calidad-precio y el personal siempre es muy amable.

Siempre que visite Louisville; Siempre me alojo en el Red Roof Inn, y este restaurante chino está justo en frente. No hace falta decir que vengo aquí a menudo por comida para llevar. La comida es buena, a un precio razonable; y el personal es amigable. Definitivamente regresaré. ¡Dos orejas de conejo para arriba! ! (\ (\ (-. -) o_ (") (")

Definitely a great place for a first or 100th date.

Best Chinese food in Louisville. Highly recommend the Beef Lo Mein.

Steamed Dumplings are amazing!!!❤

I ordered the Human Chicken and asked for extra spicy. The food arrived in a very timely fashion and was excellent! The quantity was perfect, not too much and not to small.

My wife and I ordered to go and we're amazed by the quality of of their food. We had Sweet n Sour Shrimp with egg rolls and Crab Rangoon. I would recommend eating here for excellent quality Asian food. The staff were very polite and service was quick.

best chinese place ever i love the food and the service is great

Very nice place take out food always hot.

Great food conscientious servers great service

Very good food this is a favorite

On my way to Cincinnati. Ordered 3 spring rolls for $1.99 and small hot and sour soup for $2.50. Pleasantly surprised. Could taste fresh ginger in the spring rolls. Staff was polite. If you are looking for ambiance, continue on. If you are looking for yummy food, you found it.

Place is very clean and the food is very good

Best yellow rice in town just work on the fried chicken

Estábamos buscando restaurantes cerca de nuestro hotel. Oriental Star estaba a 2 cuadras, así que lo probamos. Entramos, olimos el lugar, nos dimos la vuelta y salimos. ¡Un cliente que nos vio salió con su pedido para ir y nos aseguró que si podíamos superar el olor a pescado, la comida estaba deliciosa! Así que pedimos pero conseguimos nuestra comida para ir. Estaba delicioso y había mucho! Éramos 8 y teníamos suficiente comida para otra comida! El rangoon de cangrejo estaba delicioso! El pollo del anacardo no era a lo que estábamos acostumbrados. Era bueno e incluía zanahorias, apio y castañas de agua. El pollo agridulce viene separado (pollo en un recipiente, salsa en otro). El pollo se frió en una masa ligera. Me recordó a un revestimiento de pastel de embudo. Si volvemos a la zona, probablemente volveremos a visitar Oriental Star.

I've been meaning to write a review for this restaurant for a long time now. We get our food delivered all the time and they never let us down! It always arrives in a timely manner and it is always so fresh. Best crab ragoon and beef lo mein I've ever had.

Standard fast Chinese experience. Friendly and attentive staff, clean dining area.

My go to fast Chinese restaurant. Food is of a great quality, portions are ample, taste is above average, price is excellent and the staff is very nice. I love their egg drop soup and you won't go wrong with their Hunan beef or chicken.

Service and food was fantastic! I love this place!

This is your average neighborhood Chinese restaurant. Where you can get full on a little bit of money. The food is good.

The best Chinese food, in the area, I have had in a long time

Great service, super friendly staff The place is a little dingy, bathrooms are scary. The food is okay.

Best Chinese in Louisville been eating here for 10 years awesome food

My husband and & love the food from them

Goodnplace to eat amd they deliver

Clean restaurant, tasty food, fast service.

This is our go to Chinese restaurant. We have tried several others, but they can't match the quality and taste. If you disagree please let me know and I'll try them out. Plus the service here is always top notch.

Siempre me alojo en el Red Roof Inn cuando estoy en Louisville, y el Oriental estrellas está justo en frente. Fue inevitable que me gustaría tratar. . . . Y también me gustó. Así, vuelva cada año para llevar mientras me hospedo en el IRR adyacentes. Estoy deseando que llegue mi próximo pedido para llevar durante mi próxima estancia. Una alta valoración de dos orejas de conejo! ! (\ (\ (-. -) o_(") (")

Always great service . Food is amazing. I have this restuarant on speed dial.

Pork Lo Mein & Crab Rangoons was very delicious.

Awesome place Great atmosphere great customer service

If you want the best Chinese food in town you need to visit this place I go there all the time General Tso's chicken sweet and sour chicken just everything that they have on the menu is so good and the employees are so super friendly here

I stay at the nearby Red Roof Inn every year in February, and I usually go here at least once for take-out food. The staff is polite, the prices reasonable, and the food is good. What more can one ask for? Two rabbit ears up!! (\ (\ ( -.-) o_(")(")

Been eating here for years. Great place!

Wonderful food and service every time

This is our favorite Chinese restaurant. We have been coming here for more years than I can remember. We have watched the owners children grow up. The food is dependable, and good every time. We have never had a bad experience. The owners are kind and friendly. We love the food from Oriental Star. Do yourself a favor. Eat here soon, and often.

Stopped in for some take out. The menu was what you expect. The food was excellent and the service friendly and fast. I'll be back.

I've been coming here for over 16 years now; one of my favorites.

Excellent and affordable Chinese food. Attentive staff also

Basic Chinese place. Decent food. Fast delivery. Nice people

Great food in this average Asian restaurant. It is the sort of place you want to go for Mandarin or Sezchuan Chinese cuisines. Take-out or sit down but dine in is smaller. Have a great time sharing your plates or get one of your own.

Awesome food and service. Wish I had one in my new area

Food here is great and cheap. Dont expect the best Chinese food you've ever had, but for the price, it's amazing.

Great food, great prices and super great service and they even deliver. Regular customer , house hold staple, at least once a week.

Excellent service, quick preparation of food, never crowded, always clean, a staple at my home, would recommend

Great portions and great food at very reasonable prices!

The food is amazing and they have great prices! The staff is always friendly and makes sure you are satisfied. I've tried about half their menu and its all wonderful!

Very fast delivery with a good price.

Great quality and huge quantity of food for cheap. I have to save over half of my carry out for later

A hidden gem, Oriental Star was exactly what I was looking for, at a good price. The General's Tso's was excellent!

Good Chinese food. Fast service when dining in or ordering a takeout. Reasonably-priced. Conveniently-located and close to Best Western hotel where we stayed. Will come here when we are in the area again.

Shrimp and vegetables were the best; the establishment was located right in front of my hotel room on Bishop Lane.

We were staying at the nearby Red-Roof Inn; and decided to order take out Chinese food from here, and then bring it back to the hotel room. It was a nice little place with a friendly staff and good food. I might dine in next time I am in the area. It is worth checking out. Two rabbit ears up!! (\ (\ ( -.-) o_(")(")

This place doesn't look much from the outside, but the food is excellent and varied. Good personal service. Difficult to find as it is in an industrial area, but the journey is well worth it. Only disadvantage as they do not serve alcohol.
