Delicious peking duck; crispy skin not to much fat make sure you are ready to pay over phone an hour before going in to eat. You need to pre order it because it is time consuming and hard to prepare but worth the wait and supet sweet owners

So I don't do reviews often but I just came to Star House for my very first time and I was as felt like family! The woman in front made me feel like she was my grandma and treated me with so much honor and respect. She was amazing. So kind and comfortable. I live so close and accidentally was a few dollars short. She literally told me to enjoy myself and enjoy my food and gave it to me no extra charge. Come here if you want good kind service!

The lo main was spaghetti noodles. Service was great, very nice and timely. The food was just very bad. No crabragoons, fried rice was just white rice, Mongolian beef was just a copious amount of spring onions and a bit of beef. Over all nice place but wouldn't go back to eat.

Excellent food, great value. The owners are brother and sister, possibly the sweetest people ever! I highly recommend!

It's really good. You're welcome. Eat here and enjoy. Or don't. But if you eat somewhere dumb again like you always do and have a bad time, don't blame me. I told you where to eat (at Star House).

Food was bland. Got charged 17$ for one regular order of beef lo mein. The people were very nice but the food is bad and to add insult to injury it gave me food poisoning. The inside was gross. All I could see in the kitchen was a bunch of dirty pans stacked in the sink. The tables and chairs were sticky to the touch and it smelled bad. I don't normally write such mean reviews, but this place is a disgrace. I'm sorry to the owners. I know they're probably doing their best, but it isn't very good. I can't possibly imagine how this restaurant has garnered 4.2 stars. Maybe it was better back in the day. Never coming back. Disgusting.

I didn't even want to put one star on here.the sweet and sour pork was hard as a rock, the rice tasted funny and there were little nat bugs all over the food!!

Lovely little neighborhood mom and pop shop. Fire Szechuan style Chinese restaurant. The owners are the chef, waiter and server. Food is tasty and portions are generous. Come here hungry and leave satisfied and sleepy lol. This is currently our go to spot for Chinese food. Better than any chain spots around Escondido.

We have been going here for over 10 years and can not recommend it enough! Best Chinese food I've ever had and the people that run it are the sweetest. Please help keep this place on the map!

Watch out! Very expensive. Food is average. Very stingy with the rice.

I have known Nancy for over 30 years. She remembers everyone's order and likes. I knew her when she started on Nordahl. My son is now 27 and my daughter is 10. We visited today and felt loved from the most amazing woman I have ever known. The food was mouth watering and plentiful. She has given everything she can to her customers. If you want to be a part of her heart then come and enjoy her recipes and undying kindness!!! Customer service is everything these days!
