Five Star

I have dined in and take out many times at Five Star in Raleigh. Its a great place all around. Excellent food and cocktails. I recently picked up an order; the staff gave me the wrong order and I did not realize until I was home, 10 miles away. They instantly credited the meal. What I did take home was wonderfully delicious. Five Star is customer focused.

Went to five star last night for dinner and definitely give them five stars! The staff were awesome! I ordered a Mezcal sour (cocktail) and my boyfriend got a beer. The only not great thing I have to say about five star is the drink prices are way high for the amount of drink you get (cocktail in picture was $15). After that drink I switched to wine and the bartender gave great suggestions and helped me pick which one would be best for my taste (gave samples)! For food we started with the pork belly buns and they were delicious! For our main dishes I got the crispy sesame beef and my boyfriend got the shrimp and scallop dish and we shared fried rice. Both dishes were absolutely delicious! The shrimp and scallop dish had a nice spice to it. The fried rice could have used a bit more flavor but we enjoyed it none the less. All in all we will definitely be back!

I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant considering they’re open till 11pm, you would think you can’t get great late night food but Five Star hit it out of the park. All the apps were good except for the calamari… Our server recommended the spicy beef with noodles and it was delicious. I highly recommend the crab fat caramel wings and the spicy cucumbers. One of my new favorite restaurants in Raleigh, perfect for date night or girls night out, will definitely be back! Thank you Five Star!

Me and my friend were trying to find a spot to eat after visiting the nearby museum. We accidentally arrived about 20 minutes early but staff was very kind to us and catered to our every need. A waitress did get my friend's order wrong but let her keep it and was very kind. The Szechuan noodle was amazing and so was the crab Rangoon. I really can't stress how kind and friendly the staff are. It's really inexpensive too. 15$ for a bowl of noodles and 6 crab Rangoon!

After a cold day out, we wanted a good dinner. Had been to their old location years ago, but not this one. Upon arrival they had a lot that validates parking for 2 hours, so that was nice. We had no reservations, but were able to grab a table quickly. Friendly service and helpful with suggestions. We started with some soup dumplings, which were tasty. Then ended with the 5 star chicken and crispy green beans. They also had a good drink selection. I had the Fall Bourbon. I recommend this place for anyone looking for casual Asian.
