text: China Star is one of the best places to get authentic Szechuan cuisine in the entire city of Pittsburgh.  Great recipes, a broad menu, and consistent execution make China Star an outing that I always look forward to.  The Chengdu Chicken and Cumin Lamb are especially good.\n\nIf you want Americanized Chinese food (your egg rolls and your General Tso's chicken), this probably gets bumped down to 3 stars at best.  But if you want REAL Chinese food, I can't think of another option that comes close.
