I got out for lunch. Is was just after 2:00 pm. The other restaurants by Star Chef were closed. I saw a woman (Coco) cleaning the equipment. I asked if they were closed. She told me yes we are closed yet, they still have some steamed dumplings. I told her I’d get 9 Steamed Pork Dumplings. I was excited. I had gone by Wednesday and had Pan Fried Pork Dumplings. It was so good then that’s why I went my today. Both times the dumplings were so good and fresh. I also had their Ginger & Soy Sauce and Chili oil. These added extra flavor. Stop by and see for yourself. I met Ms. Lee. Coco said the business has been there for over 12 years. Ms. Lee is in charge of the dumplings. She gets to work at 4:00 am to start making them. Great food, great people & service.

AMAZING!!!! I was in Houston on vacation and discovered this spot while wandering the tunnels one day searching for lunch. The staff were warm and friendly and the food was incredible. Everything was made from scratch and tasted phenomenal. I ordered a dozen of the pork dumplings which were huge and a very good value at only $10. The fried rice was delicious as well and the egg rolls were hot, fresh, and crisp!

My fiancé and I are from Orlando and ventured into the tunnels and were super happy to find this. The dumplings were freshly made and delicious! Very nice people. I recommend them for sure!

Conveniently located in the Houston Tunnels system in the McKinney food court (which also contains Top Taste, Mayuri Express, Taka Sushi and Ramen, and Time for Thai). Star Chef offers a choice of pork, chicken and veggie dumplings that are either pan-fried, steam-fried, or deep fried with sides of different kinds of soups and rice plates also available.

Great place to grab some dumplings for lunch. Very tasty and well made steam dumplings of three types to pick. I tried their beef-noodle soup, too. I would give it 8 or 9 over 10… BTW, the service is prompt and polite. Well done, Star Chef(s)!!

If you like dumplings, this is an insanely filling and affordable lunch. I’ve had just about all of them, and haven’t been disappointed with any of the options. I recommend getting a mixture of 6 and 6 to have a variety of flavors, or go with two friends and get three different options to choose from!

It’s in the tunnel which is fun. Very fast service. Hot and delicious. I ordered the pan fried pork dumpling with fried rice. I liked the spicy sauces too. Will definitely be back!

The food is great and at a decent price. Sadly, my most recent experience left me stunned. The cashier put the wrong order in and then blamed me for the mistake in a very rude manner. Let’s suppose it was my fault (it wasn’t), the indignant way she spoke to me was completely uncalled for. Hey, everybody has bad days and the food is good, so I’ll probably give them another try in the future.
