Incredible Post-Wedding Lunch at B Star!
My husband and I celebrated our post-wedding lunch at B Star. We rented out their beautiful patio in the back. Their team was so easy and incredible to work with (extra shout-out to Diane), and all of our guests raved about the drinks and the food. Highly recommend working with them for any events or special occasions!

Mixed Experience: Great Service, Questionable Food Accuracy
I visited this restaurant specifically for the tea leaf salad and samosa soup. The salad was just okay, mostly lettuce and not particularly exciting. The real issue arose with the samosa soup, which unexpectedly contained meat, despite being ordered as vegan. The staff, however, were absolute gems. They promptly involved the manager, who explained that meat filling sometimes "accidentally" gets into the vegan soup. They were apologetic and remade the soup to be vegan. As a gesture, they also brought out free vegan Brussels sprouts, which surprisingly became the highlight of the meal. Overall, the service was exceptional (10/10), but the food quality was disappointing (4/10), and the accuracy of ingredients was questionable. It was a meal of lovely people, average flavors, and an unexpected "guess that protein" game.

A Lovely Surprise with Delicious Food
B Star was a nice surprise. The food was good and the pot pie was especially delicious. The service was attentive and friendly. It all made for a lovely night with dear friends.

Excellent Food and Service, Some Decline
We have been dining at B-Star since it opened. My experience has been consistently positive, particularly with the food, which is excellent. My favorite is the Miso fish with ginger noodles; it's delicate and exquisite. The tea leaf salad used to be my favorite, but since COVID, it has gone downhill. However, there are plenty of other very good choices. The happy hour is worthwhile if you can arrive early enough. The service is always efficient and friendly. Mark, the manager, handles every obstacle very well. The interior is pleasant.

Terrible service, order not taken
My experience at this restaurant was extremely negative. After engaging in conversation with the staff for 30 to 40 minutes, they still did not take my order. 😫

Fantastic Event Venue with Amazing Food!
Our nonprofit hosted a private event here and we were absolutely blown away. The staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating. The food was fantastic, and B Star created a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made our evening a success. We highly recommend this venue for private events or a delicious night out. We can't wait to return!

Disappointing Food, Good Service
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. While the service was good and the atmosphere was rated highly, I was ultimately disappointed in the food. The tea leaf salad was plain, consisting mostly of lettuce with insufficient tea leaves. The Khao soi also lacked the expected complex, rich flavor, tasting flat and watery. To add to the disappointment, the boiled egg served with the dish was cold. Despite the excellent service and atmosphere, the food quality did not meet expectations.

Consistently Improving and Unique Flavors
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently positive, with each visit showing improvement. I was impressed by the unique food combinations that I haven't encountered elsewhere. The prices are also fair, making it a great value. The atmosphere and service were both rated a perfect 5 out of 5, contributing to an excellent dinner experience.

Blown Away by Delicious Food and Service!
Came in tonight for the first time with a group of friends from out of town, and we were blown away by how delicious the food and service was! Our server Eve was very attentive, friendly, and quick with service. Special shout out to Eve and the kitchen chefs here!
