This is one of the best chinese takeaways I've ever used. I travel 10 miles to get there . Always lovely food ,plenty of it and at a very good price .

Food was practically inedible. Noodles looked ‘old’ and re heated. Salt and pepper chips were wet, slimy, most of the chips were black / green. Chicken balls were saturated in a thick greasy batter which had a few wet layers. The joy and sour soup literally smelt like sick ? Was off? My husband said the worst he’s ever had. The worst food from a takeaway we have had for years! Won’t return at all.

I ordered a chicken shezuarn which was inedible as it was a sweet and sour chicken with undercooked chicken, the cashier insisted it was the right meal so I asked her to dispose of it , the chicken curry was also undercooked (pink) and the curry sauce was awful. We will not be returning to this takeaway . Also I don’t like the cash only system????

This is a busy Chinese Takeaway in the heart of the town. The portions are very generous and prices competitive. We especially enjoyed the chicken and mushrooms in black bean sauce. A couple of tips 1) This is a cash only business so make sure you have some, there are cash machines nearby if you forget. 2) It does get busy at peak times so I would recommend placing your order in advance by telephone to avoid a wait.

The flavour in the food at this Chinese is brilliant, the only thing holding back a 5 star review is the chips are often cooked so many times they are mostly hollow! Please sort this out! It's a shame to have such nice food and awful chips!

We have always visited Wishing Star and not had a complaint however we then tried their crispy duck and it was pretty awful, not crispy and very slimy. If you don't want the duck give them a visit!

We had a very large takeaway order for a family party. All food was piping hot when we got it home which is 15 minutes away. Lots of different dishes, all cooked to perfection. The prawn toast was lovely, as was chow mein, both vegetable and chicken varieties. Lovely Chinese curry and steak in black bean sauce was cooked to perfection also. Highly recommend and will definitely use again.

Really enjoy their meals but don't go every week simply because of the insane amount of salt they use. Every time we go we have a night of severe thirst. Food quality is great but please reduce the salt

Yo no como llevar muy a menudo y en la que rara ocasión han tendido a usar Minhs, mi plato favorito es el curry de pato chino. Hace un par de noches estaba fuera con un amigo para unos tragos, él estaba llamando a la que desean estrellas en el camino a casa, así que decidí acompañarles con él en vez de llamar a Minhs. La primera diferencia evidente que era el precio. £5. 60 en contraposición a los 8 libras. 60 pago de Minhs. La segunda diferencia evidente que era el gusto, inmensurablemente mejor que Minhs y, finalmente, la cantidad real y la calidad de la carne en el curry al menos el doble de currys Minhs, cuya salida siempre están acolchadas con cebollas, champiñones y pobre calidad de carne. Estoy sólo lamentamos no descubrir esta joya poco antes. Que deseen estrellas en todos los aspectos.

Always used Jade House in Shifnal before but decided to give it a go, the Cantonese Sweet n Sour Chicken is lovely, although it is a very bright colour and the Barbecued Pork Chow Mein is very tasty, it could do with a bit more sauce

This place, despite being collection only (I think delivery could be organised), is absolutely fantastic, the staff are really friendly and the food is always yummy, the portions sizes are huge, and not too greasy. If you're looking for a tasty snack and you don't mind visiting the beautiful little town of Shifnal definitely pop by. So So Good!!!

After numerous visits to different Chinese/ Cantonese takeaways around Telford and surrounding areas, I always find myself back at Shifnal's Wishing Star. I miss Steve, the old owner. But the food is still up to a really good standard. Great prices. Great menu. Great food. I used to live in Shifnal so I used this a lot but now I travel from Trench and still worth traveling the 6 mile. It's cheaper than Minhs and as good.

Used to love this Chinese but the last couple of times the food has not been as nice- quite greasy. There also used to be a man on the desk who was friendly but now there is a woman who doesn't talk to you unless she's shouting your order at you! Shame might have to change to the other Chinese in the village.

I really cant say how many times I have eaten food from here! It is easily the best takeaway in shifnal by far and Im not the only one who thinks this. The majority of people in shifnal eat from here and my own dad drives 20 miles just to get food from here its that good. Steve is a fantastic server/host and is friendly to every single person who comes through his door. Food is tasty and perfect each and every time! I strongly recommend a visit!

We tried to eat in, but it was full on a Sunday evening just after 5 pm and we hadn't booked. So we ended up with a takeaway - 10 veg spring rolls, sweet and sour chicken balls, beef and black bean, chicken, broccoli and creamy garlic and a large egg fried rice. Portions were large. We had free prawn crackers and a second set of spring rolls. The food was good.
