Hot Star Large Fried Chicken — Restaurant in Markham

The ambiance was inviting, with a modern touch that hinted at a fusion of traditional flavors with a contemporary twist. The staff greeted me with a smile, their enthusiasm as warm as the kitchen from which they served.

I ordered their much-raved-about chicken, expecting a dish that would tantalize my taste buds and leave me yearning for more. However, as I took my first bite, I was met with a sense of unfulfillment. The chicken, though cooked to a perfect golden brown, lacked the depth of flavor I had anticipated. It was as if the spices had taken a backseat, allowing the greasiness to steer the course of this culinary expedition.

The texture was commendable, with a crispy exterior giving way to tender meat within. Yet, the promise of a flavor explosion was unmet, leaving my palate underwhelmed. It seemed the chicken was content to be average in a sea of...

I only give this place a two star.

I ordered the large fried chicken with a little spicy. The chicken costed ($9.99) before taxes.

The wait for the chicken was about 10 minutes or more because it was freshly fried.

I have to say, the price of chicken is huge. But when I bit into it, the meat was really thin, like extremely thin and most of it was dough. This was a little disappointing. As I ate further into the chicken. I ended up eating some bone... it was stated that the chicken is supposed to be chicken breast. I didn't expect bone to be in it.

Overall comments: probably will not purchase again. It's difficult to eat because it's such a big piece. Next time I might try the chicken...

Went here for lunch, ordered original chicken, crispy chicken, corn, and plum sweet potato. We waited too long to get our order, clerk didn't even bother to update us or anything. They seemed like they didn't want to work there. When we finally got it the food, it tasted stale, blant, and oily (chicken couldn't even stay upright). Flavouring was lacking in all of our food, it was just a terrible experience. Sweet potato was bitter and I couldn't even recognize the plum flavouring.

I feel like I can comment in this experience since I regularly get hot star or monga chicken. Never been so dissatisfied and this location was...
