I ordered the Hotstar chicken and mushroom. Buy any 2 items and you can get a drink for $1 for the combo. Be prepared to wait as the food is cooked fresh to order. The chicken was very flavourful and juicy especially with chicken salt seasoning. The mushroom was really crunchy too. The service was really friendly as it was my first time and I was confused and the female staff member helped me with the ordering process. The food also has to be eaten straight away or it will get soggy. The wait during the lunch rush can be quite long as there is only 1 staff member juggling frying, ordering and seasoning , so if you want your food fast in under 5 minutes I wouldnt recommend coming here as there are a ton of fast food places nearby. Overall a good experience and I would return just for the chicken but maybe not for the other food items as it's quite expensive and you only get a small amount ....

Hot Star Fried Chicken is a great Taiwanese street food vendor in the heart of Melbourne. They sell fried chicken, fried mushrooms and even fried squid! Their signature item is the large fried chicken. It’s huge, the size of my head and sells for just $9. The meat is so juicy and tender. You can choose from 6 salt flavours – (Salt and Pepper, Chicken Salt, Chilli, Cajun, Plum & Cumin.) I also got a serve of fried mushrooms. These were so succulent, with a great crunchy batter. I’ve been visiting this stall for years. It’s fast, cheap and delicious. A must-visit for Melbourne’s fried chicken lovers.

Great fried chicken with super tasty sides. The cutlet is delicious and normally doesn’t come with too many rib bones. The sides are all great with sweet potato fries and the fried mushrooms my favourite. Much faster cooking time compared to similar places nearby so if you are in a hurry this is the place to go.

I got some chicken here, it was pretty good but not amazing. I enjoyed it but couldn’t eat the whole thing. Worth a try but I would probably get kfc next time.

Big piece of chicken but took a long time. No way close to what the original in Taiwan is like. The dole actually smells a bit funny and overall taste pretty flavorless. Didn’t enjoy it at all and costs $9 which is pretty overpriced for what you get. Won’t be buying this ever again.
