★★★★☆ 4.0 Sarah Coker · Mar 2026

Food was great other than not getting my coneys (didn't get put in my pick up order) and the buns on our chili burgers were soggy by the time we got home. They put way too much chili on them! But I still love my Gold Star regardless ❤️

Love me some gold star that was my feelings but lately it so bad I just left there the food was sub par I ordered a 3 way I might have gotten half of one maybe cold portion and ordered a chocolate shake they look good it was a big ball of ice cream and 2 thirds cup of whip cream I always tip inside drive thru and even to go but the girl in there is hateful always giving me the evil eye I'm going to switch up and go to skyline maybe they will do better it's their loss

The food and atmosphere were really good. I gave service 3 stars because the staff member at the register had an attitude when I was telling her my order. She was short with me and I felt disrespect because I asked for a chili spaghetti and she interrupted me and said WE call it a 3 way. I didn’t have time to say “chili, spaghetti and cheese”.

The specific location was very clean. I haven't been to a gold star in a long time. The server was very friendly and accommodating. I felt like I was at a fancy or place for sure.
