“I’ve been coming here for some time but last nights food was exceptional. There was what appeared to be an older married couple cooking and gathering the orders and the food was FANTASTIC. I will only come here from now on if and when this couple is preparing the food. The general tso, chicken and broccoli with cashew, fried rice, wonton soup and veggie lo mein were out of this world.
Dietary restrictions: They will leave out items upon request.
Kid-friendliness: They sell typical friend American favs for kids“

“Excellent food!!! My favorite Chinese restaurant!“
“By far the best in the area. Been going here for almost a decade and realized last night that I never did my part with a much deserved positive review. The food is always on point, down to the detail, ready when promised or faster, and the price is super reasonable. I went there tonight, they were slammed with only two people running the whole show. One person cooking, the other cooking, taking orders, answering phone, running the register and packing up orders. Didn't matter, they didn't miss a beat! Food was perfect, ready by the time promised and the employee I interacted with was very pleasant. If you're looking for good Chinese food in the Wilkes-barre/Plains area, this is the spot!
Items I can vouch for: chicken and broccoli, crab rangoons, spare ribs, sweet and sour chicken/shrimp, schezuan style shrimp, pork fried rice, fried dumplings, wonton soup, homemade iced tea
Dietary restrictions: I eat everything, but my mom is vegan and this is also her favorite spot for Chinese food.“

“This is my second time here because the first time I was blown away. This time they brought my food 🍱 I had the most random surprise..4 pieces of cake and a random container of pineapple…I literally just had a five year old wake up from a nap who’s birthday is this weekend so he totally thought it was meant for him, and then the pineapple! I eat pineapple with every meal so this surprise totally kicked butt. You totally just made me a weekly customer.“

“Very tasty food. Definitely a bit different (in a good way) in comparison to other regional Chinese restaurants. They bring an authentic recipe to their food, and you need to give it a try. Convenient off street parking to run in for your take-out, and the food is always fresh and made timely without long waits. Extensive menu selection, so it won't be hard to find something you'll like. I give them five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The man taking my order at the counter was very kind and helpful. The sweet and sour chicken combo had more than enough food for myself for dinner tonight and lunch tomorrow. I had to try the cheese wontons and they did not disappoint. Favorite ones in the area by far. I also wanted to try the sesame chicken which was perfectly crispy and had plenty of sauce. This was my first experience here and I will be back :)“

“We occasionally order for our office at work, typically $130-$160 order. Sprays hot always fresh always delicious. Delivery driver Pat is one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet! I just wish they would answer their phone before 11am to be able to place our order and give them time to prepare it and get delivered by 11:45-12:00. Other than that, this place is our go to for Chinese every time. Highly recommended.“

“Great Chinese restaurant. Recipes updated in past 2 Yrs. Perfect amount of sweet for general tso chicken veg fried rice. Won ton soup n gen tso were both great w healthier undertone of ginger and/or garlic; which I appreciated. Yumm. Not strong. Love and enjoy broccoli pile, but not really one in the gen tso. Instead other veggies I enjoyed.Quick service for food to be ready.I prefer less oily spring rollsEveryone is nice“

“Golden Star is an absolute gem! I stopped by on a whim, and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the aroma of freshly cooked food had me excited. I ordered the teriyaki beef sticks and sweet and sour pork, and wow—each bite was better than the last! The beef was tender and perfectly seasoned, while the pork was crispy and paired wonderfully with the tangy sauce.
The staff here are fantastic—super friendly and attentive. Even though the restaurant was busy, they managed to keep everything running smoothly, and my food was ready in no time. The vibe is casual and laid-back, making it a great spot for a quick meal or a relaxed dinner.
If you’re a fan of generous portions and bold flavors, this place is a must-visit. Whether you’re dining in, grabbing takeout, or ordering delivery, Golden Star delivers (literally and figuratively) every time. Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes! Five stars, hands down.“

“The best Chinese in the Scranton area!!! Rice doesn't have veggies in it (which I like) but you can request veggies. Sweet and sour chicken is my favorite!!! The sauce is the best around!!! I'm originally from New Jersey, and this place is just as good!!!“

“Fine Chinese restaurant with the typical dishes available. Staff is friendly and the service was good and quick. Only reason for 4 star instead of 5 is I did feel like this place has slightly higher prices then some others I've been to.“

“I have been going to Peking Chef my whole life ever since I was a little girl they used to know me by phone number and they still do. The quality of the food has always been consistent and in my book its 5 star cuisine that never disappoints. The atmosphere is very nostalgic to me as it has always looked the same which is perfect just the way it I'dand always clean such a nice place.“

“Easily the best Chinese food in the area. The chicken and broccoli is phenomenal. The egg rolls and spring rolls are delicious. We order from here every couple of weeks and it’s always the best service. We’ve tried other places but nothing compares to Tin Tin.“

“Best Chinease food in the area! Fresh all the time. Great dough for dumplings, won tons, etc. Fast, and friendly young man @ the cou ter. Prices pretty decent. Generous portions.
Vegetarian options: Won Ton soup is loaded with wontons, freshly made @ lunchtime. Best egg fu young I've ever had. Plus the vegetables are cooked perfectly every time.
Parking: In a busy area but parking is right on the side. Also, Hazel Mart gas and convenient store is right across the street!
Kid-friendliness: Small waiting area, no tables or anything, but very fast hard workers. Bubble gum machines, and super ball, toy.25/.$.50 machines, they look out the big windows sitting on a bench.
Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to get a chair in there's a small bump, but very small.“

“The staff was very friendly, it didn't take long for us to get food... I was initially worried because I didn't see any vegan options on the main board... Just chicken, fish and seafood but the service staff offered us menus and I could see that there were a lot of vegan options and not just super spicy ones either. Our food was delivered quickly and properly. When I asked for extra napkins, we got extra napkins. We were about to return our menus but the worker said we could keep them and take them home. As for the place itself, there's no garbage can and while we had a great view, I didn't see anyone else working to clean tables or the bathrooms in the back.
Vegetarian options: More options for vegetarians than similar Chinese restaurants.
Dietary restrictions: Vegan selection is better than usual for an inexpensive Chinese restaurant... General Tso's Tofu, Bean Curd with Mixed vegetables, white rice served with lunch special instead of fried rice if you ask), Miso soup, Chinese vegetables, French fries, there was another spicy tofu dish but I can't think of it.
Parking: Shares the parking lot with other businesses as they are located in a small plaza across from Citizens Bank
Kid-friendliness: Not kid-friendly in the sense that there's a kids menu or activities but generally peaceful place with limited seating.
Wheelchair accessibility: There's a small ramp so if you have a large wheelchair, it wouldn't work out very well and the door to the restaurant is small so I'm going to say inaccessible.“

“I ordered the Szechuan chicken lunch meal, which came with pork fried nice and an egg roll. It was ready very quickly (10 minutes), was piping hot, and delivered the heat without being overpowering. The pork fried rice also had nice chunks of pork and roughly chopped onion. Although the prices are slightly higher than the menu posted on Facebook, it’s still a good deal for lunch and I’ll be back since I work in the area. I just wish I got a fortune cookie with my meal though! LOL 🥠“
