Golden Star Restaurant

I haven't tried the American food they sell, but all the Chinese I've tried has been great, but it's Americanized Chinese, like all the other Chinese food places in Boise. The house special is fantastic. Another review here said something about soggy eggrolls, but often they set your eggroll on the side of a saucy dish and it soaks up the sauce and gets soggy. It's too bad that customer was too stupid to figure that out. The eggrolls are still good though, different than the regular bought-in-a-bag-of-frozen-eggrolls, you can tell these were made in house. And I'm glad they threw out that other customer for trying to insist they get free food. Honestly, some Americans have bad behavior when they walk into foreign-owned restaurants. I've never had a bad experience there, and the staff is really friendly even though they don't always speak the best English. If there was something wrong with the food I'm sure they would have fixed it if they were spoken to with respect.

Run do not walk away from this "restaurant" - My family and I tried this restaurant on Saturday the 24th of July 2010 on the recommendation of the Idaho Statesman. Well that will not happen again. This was by far the worst Chinese food I have ever tried. The egg rolls were soggy and were literally dripping with grease and the meat in my daughter's Mongolian Beef dish had to be days old and just reused, it was disgusting. We actually did something we have never done before; we asked them not to charge us for the Mongolian beef or egg rolls as they were not touched beyond the first bite. We were summarily told by the owner to get lost, that we just did not understand the way Chinese food is prepared in Boise!!! What???? So we paid our $60.00 bill and summarily went downtown to Yeng Ching and actually had a really good dinner. If I could give a negative star rating I would. Please do not make the mistake my family and I made. If someone had warned us we would not have gone to this horrib
