About

Fast Food Restaurant
We serve up small batch, Cincinnati-style chili and fresh, hot 100% American beef burgers crafted by hand and made to order. Our chili is cooked in small batches to ensure the quality, flavor and texture are perfect, every time. And the burgers? Well, they really are from flat top grill heaven - juicy, perfectly cooked and even better when topped with our famous chili.

    Everything was fine at the Gold Star except for entrance into the parking lot. It's a common driveway and not obvious as you drive by. We had to go turn around and come back as you had to enter at the driveway for the United Dairy Farmers.
