The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was as good as I've received since first being introduced to Gold Star in the '70's. Always hits the spot.
It’s a Cincinnati staple. You come for the chili that is known for the region. Of course they offer more and for some that is a good way to try and defer to something that isn’t the chili.
I'm a Buckeye living in KY & TN for the past 20yrs, this is the first Gold Star I pass on my route home when I get to visit and they simply never disappoint! Whether I'm grabbing a coney crate to go or able to dine in for my favorite 4-way, onion - the service is always fast & friendly! The food absolutely perfect and just how I remember! I haven't rated in several years, but decided to leave this comment after having to be home several times this year. I'm always glad to stop...read full review
