"Not what it used to be. The Bratbeef is covered with a thick brown severity that tasted like Franco-Americans. I thought the beef was in the juices earlier. Au Jus The server Michelle was very nice. It's not a $10,000 sandwich. This is South Philly, you can get a better beef or pig everywhere."

They have the best roast beef sandwich you will ever eat in your life. A must have when in Philly. You won't regret it. And the gentlemen behind the counter were awesome.

Good place for a quick pick me up in a pinch. Food is hot and fresh and the fries are really good. Combo cheese is melts and delicious, gravy is the perfect amount of salty to slightly creamy. Don?t sleep on this place. Grab a beer while you wait.

"We were there celebrating two birthdays. Our server Faith was wonderful. She was attentive without being intrusive and knowledgeable about the menu. We were a table of 6 and ordered quite a bit of food, some of which was great and others lackluster. The bao buns were great and the small calamari salad was huge and those who had it said delicious. The spareribs were good as well as the edamame dumplings, although the way those were served made it hard to fully enjoy. Each dumpling should be on a individual type spoon so you can enjoy the soup part as well as the dumpling. The way they were served in one large bowl with only one spoon made it so the soup part is left at the bottom. I did request extra spoons from the expediter but they never came. The worst part of our appetizer course was somehow an item was switched to another in the computer and served to us. It had shellfish in it and that wasn’t known when someone at our table who doesn’t eat shellfish ate it. The sashimi was good but the tuna tartare thing was really bad. The entrees we had were the duck, which I was told was delicious, the miso cod, which was fishy, the whole fish which was tasteless, the lobster fried rice, which was okay but lacking flavor. The best dish was the black pepper beef, it was delicious and elegantly served. We had all the sides and all were quite good especially the eggplant and the wasabi mashed potatoes. It was a nice evening but it felt a little stale for a Starr restaurant."
