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.

    Waited a good 10 minutes for a single bacon cheeseburger and a double bacon cheeseburger. Got home and I ate the fries first before they got cold. The bacon was not cooked so I pulled it off. Took one bite of my single burger and it was not even cooked. It was completely pink inside. This Fairfield Gold Star is terrible. Will not eat here again...

    Everytime I go to this location, they screw my order up. I waited for over an hour at the drive thru and they did not give me cheese for my 3-way and they put hot dogs on my chili cheese sandwiches. I do not recommend this location, go to the Ross store.

    Don't do it. They are inconsistent. It isn't even worth it. I have to go in to make sure the order is right every single time. If you get a chili sandwich with or without cheese. You will literally get a speckle of chili. Like they use a teaspoon. I had to purchase an additional chili to put on the bun. Do not recommend.

    The 2 inexperience high school age order takers couldn't get the order right after my repeating 3 times and almost screwed my order up.this the 2nd time. They stood there and laughed in my face. They argued the order with me. The car in front of me , their order had been screwed and they were in the line for the second time to get it correct. They don't listen at all and then blame the customer. They disrespectectedme big time. I'm 72 yrs old very capable minded, I don't need this. They tried to make me out crazy. I will go out of my way to go to another store. But you need to talk to their .mgr and the need to be told not ti treat your customers this way.
