Didn't take any photos because I was too excited for food that I ate it immediately. Couldn't really decide what to eat so we ordered a bunch and the owner even brought us some noodles to try since we were so indecisive! We got Soup dumplings, Calamari, Green beans, kung pao chicken and some spicy noodles. Everything was delicious! I'd order all of it again but still want to try everything else on the menu. Mixed drinks were good and I was excited to see sake on the menu too.Had a great time with the staff, food came out impressively quick, and atmosphere was cool. We will be back!

We dined at Five Star recently for the first time. As we entered the door we were greeted by Chandler and welcomed exceptionally. What a great first introduction out of the gate. We were seated in a pretty chill location and the vibe in the restaurant was super cool. Our waiter promptly came to greet us with his exuberant personality to match (what a gem), and made recommendations for the menu. I felt certain he knew what he was talking about, and he did! EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE and EXCEPTIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS by Ryan!My partner and I had the Crispy Green Beans to start. TO DIE FOR! I mean, I could have eaten these as the main course. Next we had some Crab Rangoons which I thought were an excellent choice, and the sauce was great. Next, for dinner, I got the Crispy Sesame Beef and my partner got the Crispy Sesame Chicken. We both devoured the plate, the fork, fingers, and anything withstanding that deliciousness. In the end, my partner wanted desert so I sat and watched him barely come up for air as he scarfed down Warm Chocolate cake with ice cream. While I cannot speak for the taste of it, he sure made it look like it was the best dessert he had ever had, and I believe he may have mumbled that too while still eating the cake. I will have to try it on the next visit. Overall, it was a very awesome experience, the food was great, but the service, quite frankly, in my opinion was the best part. It is just hard to find great service these days! This was on point, and worth the $.**Awesome job! I wish I had taken pics, but I was so wrapped up in the waiters personable personality and time at the table, I forgot. Admittedly, I was also very hungry and I ate the food and the pictures! :). Check this place out for sure!

This is one of my favorite Asian places in Raleigh. Their food is very good and I never come away hungry. They give you plenty of food. I usually sit at the bar and the service is very good as well. I would recommend this place if you're in the mood for a traditional Asian meal.

I regularly come here now and this is definitely my casual asian restaurant of choice. You can actually come here casual or dressed up, and it's always lively inside. It's very packed on weekends, so make reservations or be prepared to wait. They also have a DJ who plays really great mixes! Last night's mixes were great. They have this cute painted private room for large parties if you want to celebrate something. Also don't pay for parking because they validate it inside. My favorite dish here is actually the chicken fried rice. It's one of my favorite fried rice dishes if not my number one and I get it every time. I also ask for a side of yum yum sauce and pour it over. Second place goes to the heat seeker shrimp. I love that they have a featured menu list that is constantly changing with food and drinks. I will say their drinks are amazing. I've tried so many different cocktails in cute cups and garnishes from this place alone and I'm always excited to see what's featured. Last night's featured drink was a matcha lychee margarita and we loved it. From the featured food menu, we got red curry chicken and chili garlic noodles. The red curry chicken was soooooo good I really hope they permanently add the dish to the menu. Everyone loved it.Their portions are huge and their prices are amazing. You will be stuffed and have great drinks and not even spend that much.

So I only went because of people that I was with knew the bartender and they were really cool so we got really good bartender service. The bartender was attentive, aware of what we were asking for, and cook this up. I have no complaints. Came on a Wednesday, did a DJ there I was actually really cool! Only came for a couple of drinks and some shots so I don't have a whole lot going on, but the shrimp egg roll or the shrimp spring roll was super fire!

Very good food. I ordered take out. Delicious. Although...5 dollars buys you a cup of soup. They should fill the little container.Otherwise they have great service and food iw well prepared.

The most amazing thing you will ever eat are the scallion pancakes! So wonderfully priced with a dipping sauce that is outrageously good! You will want two orders of them! It is wonderful to eat outside where the train will go right by you as you are eating and dining.

Had a fun evening at Five Star with my wife. We sat at the bar for drinks and dinner. All was delicious and we enjoyed the cool vibe of the place, including the DJ who provided nice background music. Always a fun and lively place.
