Enjoyed how the grains of the fried rice were distinct, no clumpy overly soft ones here; fragrant, eggy and served with bits of lupcheong and tobiko! The marinated pork loin was decent, but was a tad too tough. I’ve seen reviews saying that it’s tender so it could be an off day. I liked how they took the time to ask for, and addressed my feedback.
Vegetarian option with assorted mushrooms. Could do with more cheese but this was quite good to share.
Thank you Burpple for the invite and D’Star Bistro for having us!
The thin-crust pizzas are made in house. I really like cheesy pizzas so I thought it could do with more cheese for all 3 that we tried. I liked the Morning After Pizza ($16), which comes with bacon, mushrooms, mozzarella, topped with a sunshine egg in the middle that gave it a medley of flavours.

I liked the Fish and Chips ($12) here. The batter was crisp but not too thick nor oily, went well with their D’Star tartar sauce which had a citrusy touch to it to cut through the richness.

Pasta menu here is quite big, decent and value-for-money especially since it’s also on Burpple beyond 1 for 1!
Out of all 3 pastas we tried, I preferred this which was spicy, garlicky, al dente and portion was good.

An alternative for something creamy would be the Seafood Thai Cream sauce. Very mild Tom Yum flavour that could do with a little more heat, comes with prawns, mussels, squid and dory.
There’s 1 for 1 on Burpple Beyond!

A platter of sausages. Good with drinks. Spiced Italian sausage/ pork & cheddar/ snail sausage/ smoked pork & garlic/ smoked spicy chorizo. I liked that they weren’t too salty
100% beef - We enjoyed these juicy and well seasoned meatballs served with tangy tomato sauce!
There’s mussels in their name so of course we had to order it.
Sadly this turned out to be our least favourite dish because SOME (not all but still) of the mussels had a strange taste to it which we thought tasted like they were not the freshest of the lot - of which we were guaranteed that they’re fresh and it’s just the taste of the wine(????). So that was that. Additionally, the mussels weren’t as plump as I’d have liked but I understand it’s just a different type from what we are used to.
Fries were nicely crisp and addictive, so we also ordered truffle fries. Which came without any whiff or taste of truffle. We sent it back and thankfully it came back with obvious drizzles of truffle oil. Perhaps a little inattentive?
Well don’t let our experience mar any potential visits with them because other food was pretty good.
And I’ve seen several good reviews of other sauces with 7 for you to choose from! So maybe skip the Marinières (white wine, butter, parsley, onion - a classic!) we got and try what was recommended by others.
Oh and they’re on Burpple Beyond with one-for-one on these mussels. Wouldn’t mind heading back to try again with this deal as it could just be an one-off thing.
