A delightful surprise for Sicuan cuisine lovers! We ordered the food from the Chinese menu and it is very authentic. Really like all the dishes we ordered. Spicy in a delicious way. Rice and cold drinks are recommended 😂. Definitely Eat way more food than we normally would have. Will definitely go back again.

Visited North Star (北极星川菜馆) on a really cold day and the meal really hit the spot!!! We ordered two dishes that came out in metal pots over small burners, which kept everything hot throughout the meal and made it feel especially comforting. The dry pot–style meat dish was well seasoned with a nice balance of heat and that classic Sichuan numbing spice. The meat was tender, and the peppers, scallions, and cilantro added good texture and freshness without overpowering the dish. We also had the stir-fried cabbage, which was simple but done well - lightly crisp, garlicky, and not greasy. It paired nicely with the richer flavors of the other dish and was honestly one of those dishes you keep going back to. Nothing felt rushed, the food stayed hot, and the flavors felt true to Sichuan cooking

Coming on Christmas day was an unexpected surprise. After the previous owner closed Green Garden and the expected renovations taking much longer, we thought it was never going to open. The Spicy Boiled Beef was just as good. We also had the squid and chicken fried rice, both were very flavorful. It was busy and the staff was a bit overwhelmed, but they handled it well. Good bye Green Garden, hello North Star! We will be back!

I visited here for the first time on a certain day in October 2025. We ordered two cup of tea , a Honey Walnut Shrimp and a Pan Fried Noodle with Combo. These were so Volumy and delicious. The staffs were very kind , polite and helpful. This store is near Walgreens.

North Star Chinese Restaurant was a great experience. The service was excellent—attentive, friendly, and welcoming throughout the entire visit. The décor and ambiance were also very well done, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere that made the meal even more enjoyable. One thing I really appreciated is that they offer two menus: a traditional Chinese menu and an American-style Chinese menu. This gives diners the opportunity to choose based on their preference or even explore something new. I decided to try several dishes from the traditional Chinese menu, and they were absolutely delicious. The flavors were authentic, well-balanced, and clearly prepared with care. It was a great reminder of how flavorful and diverse Chinese cuisine can be when you step beyond the typical takeout
