The Golden Star offers an exceptional dining experience, with amazing food and friendly service. The restaurant serves a variety of dishes, including the popular cinnamon French toast combo, the smash burger, and breakfast favorites like the country fried steak and breakfast meat skillet. Known for its cozy and homey atmosphere, it's reminiscent of a classic "mom and pops" restaurant. While the bathrooms may be dated, they are clean and well-maintained.
The menu is extensive for a small restaurant, with something for everyone, making it a great choice for breakfast and lunch. The catfish is some of the best, and the tartar sauce is great. Diners can customize their dishes, giving it that “home-cooked” feel. The dining area could use some renovation, but that adds to the charm of a small-town, family-run diner. The restaurant has a loyal local customer base, and the service is incredible.
While the atmosphere may not be fancy, the food is the star. The fish sandwich special, bacon cheeseburger, and Golden Omelette are all delicious, and the biscuits and gravy are huge and tasty. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Fridays and Saturdays, making it a go-to spot for the local community. It’s best suited for solo diners, pairs, or small groups, adding to its cozy charm.
