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.

The salt and pepper squids were excellent I also really liked the chicken until I found this HUGE annoying bone that make this snack not very easy to eat outside Unfortunately this bone was ridiculously oversized ... would be perfect without

Refused to serve me due to “being busy”. I was willing to wait and didn’t rush, bad attitude as well. Weren’t even close to closing and yelled at us.

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.

I love hotstar large fried chicken, I usually order cheese and cajun flavor. But this time, I tried the chicken salt flavor just to try. It is too much salty.. too much. I know its chicken salt flavor but all I can taste in a bite is salt. this comment is for improvement purpose. I still love my chicken in cheese.

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.
