Pastrami Sandwich - Yummy!!
Sy M.

We LOVE Gold Star! One of our favorite fast-food spots in the area. The staff is always friendly, and they're great about accommodating special requests. It's a little on the pricier side, but you definitely get a lot of food for your money! The inside is always clean, cool, and comfortable, so we usually like to eat there. Definitely a local favorite for us!

Patty Melt on Rye
Mark G.

it has been a while since I have been here. I don't know why, but I'm glad I decided to come back. This place did not disappoint. The Staff are SUPER FRIENDLY!! When I would eat your I would usually order the patty melt on rye. That's what I ordered on this visit and it was so good. I wish I had ordered two of them.. lol The fries here are great too! The ice tea is real brewed and is good too!! Hidden Gem.. They are worth the stop in.. Thank You Gold Star!! I will be back more often..

Menu

Always good food. Sometimes I little pricy but never a bad food. I do only order from the drive thru and take it home. But on the weekends the parking lot has a good amount of cars in it. Great service at the drive thru window. Breakfast burrito and French toast are always good!

Chili burger ($3.90+tax)
Michael T.

Located on Clay smack dab in between Van Buren and Limonite, Gold Star is tough to miss. They have an old school drive thru with nothing but a speaker and a massive menu to choose from. Sure it's typical burgers and Mexican food but you'll see more rare things like a tuna melt. I've been coming to Gold Star for years and ate a variety of items. The chorizo breakfast burrito is great. The chili burger is awesome. The patty melt is perfectly done and their zucchini is my favorite in the area. Thin, crispy and perfect for dipping in their glorious ranch dressing. They used to be on the slower side when it came to food prep but the last couple times I was like wow you're done already. Service has always been friendly. Inside is chairs and booths. Nothing special but you get your own fountain drinks if you eat in. I've been eating here for years and had yet to float them a review. It had been a while since I returned but recent visits reminded me how good they are. The menu is massive so chances are you'll find something you like. Highly recommended!

Massive bacon breakfast burrito
John R.

Ordered a bacon breakfast burrito, staff was really nice and my food was ready quickly even on a busy Sunday. The burrito is massive, I saved a portion of it for tomorrow's breakfast. The flavor is great and the salsa is amazing! The hash browns could need a little more salt maybe, but other than that it was very delicious. Prices are also reasonable throughout the menu. Will definitely be back.

Menu special

I am really bad poncho cheese fries. It's literally my all-time favorite guilty food so if I go to a place that I've never had them at it's a must try. These are pretty good. I would like to choose to be a little bit more melted from the heat of a chilly. However, the chili was very hot so I had to wait a little bit and mix it around. For a mom and Pop chili cheese fries place it's not bad it's not the best I've ever had but it's OK. My recommendation would be to put chili from start to finish, so every fry gets hit .

Illegal
Danny S.

Unfortunately, I'm giving this a three star not because of the food because the food is always amazing, the breakfast burrito, chorizo, the beans, fire, same with the club sandwich, and the chili cheese fries. Now the reason it's a three star, it is illegal for you to charge 4% for using a credit card, now I may let it go if it was just a flat fee of 50 Cent but a percentage! That is not OK! it's illegal.

Went through the drive-thru and had the coolest chick in the world. Take our order. Her name is Kim. Very polite. The food's amazing.

Carne asada chili cheese fries
Rebecca S.

My friend recommended this restaurant. Who knew they make carne asada chili cheese fries! The hamburgers were really good. I had the avocado burger. My daughter is really picky when it comes to hamburger meat and she really liked it. Staff were friendly. Very clean.

Elizabeth M.

Very nice service. Place is very clean. Not a lot of people on a Tuesday morning which was nice. Food good but the only thing I would of loved to have is my coffee in a coffee cup and have a choice of flavored coffee since we were eating in.

On this beautiful Southern California night, I stumbled into this fine establishment. I was…read morestarving, tired, slightly overworked, and quite frankly, I've eaten at just about every spot around my house for years. It was time to venture out and try something new! The moment I walked in, the vibe was LIT! The the chairs, the wall decor, the artwork, and what appeared to be family photos and pieces of history hanging on the walls. Even a little taxidermy sprinkled in, which I'm an absolute sucker for. This place had character, and I was digging it! Now, one of my missions in life is to find the ultimate carne asada fries. So naturally, I started browsing the menu. To my disappointment, they weren't listed. I asked the staff, and they explained they'd taken them off the menu. BUT, without hesitation, they offered to make them for me anyway! Now THAT is a special touch! As they were preparing my food, the smell of that meat cooking was something else. I about fell out of my chair! I knew I was in for something good. When I finally dug in, let me tell you, the meat did NOT disappoint! Packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and honestly better than quite a few places I've tried recently. The salsa had a unique, delicious flavor of its own. I went with the green because I had a feeling the red might burn my socks clean off. Then came the beans, fresh cilantro, sour cream, and those delicious little crumbles of Mexican cheese that I can never remember the name of. Whatever you call it, it all came together beautifully! My only regret? Getting it to go. Next time, I'm planting myself in one of those chairs and enjoying the whole experience right there. Now I'm sitting here, relaxing, enjoying the rest of my evening with a full belly and a smile on my face, thinking that sometimes the best meals come from the places you weren't even planning to visit. Figured a place that went out of its way to make something special for a random hungry guy deserved a little recognition. Good food, good vibes, and genuine hospitality. I'll definitely be back!

All the food was cooked fresh, even the churro is made in house. The beans are amazing! If you eat anything else, make sure you get some beans from here! We ordered the chilaquiles rancheros, tacos (asado steak, chicken, and birria. The birria was my favorite. We tried the mulitas with steak- those were so good especially with the sauce and the beans. Have I mentioned how good the beans are? We ended our meal with churro and ice cream- the churro was so warm and the perfect balance of crisp and soft. Service was very pleasant, we were talking with the owner and he was sharing about his love for food. Ambience is very nice for a smaller diner, and they have pretty purses that they sell. Highly recommend this place- we're 100% coming back!

I can't get enough of Monty's!…read more We need one of these closer to Corona/ Murrieta etc. Spread them throughout the Inland Empire please! We need more Monty's locations! It's either Riverside or Los Angeles. The Los Angeles location is nice because it has standard restaurant seating and the vibe is full on Monty's! It's so cool! I hope they grow and open more locations. My husband and I just drove an hour to get to the Riverside location. We're only able to come once a month because it's so far away. We would hit it once a month if it were closer, maybe more than once a month. Service is always great at this location. They have stickers and buttons available. The seating is bar stools at a counter inside the food lab. The food is amazing! It's always perfectly made and it hits the spot when we miss the Monty's plant-based chicken. The burgers are good. Love the fries and tots! Definitely do the "maxed out" tots or fries. Those are the best! I love the kale salad and add chicken on top. My husband loves the chicken burgers. We always bring friends here to try Monty's plant-based grub! This place rocks.

Monty's Good Burger-Riverside Food Lab…read more Your gone?! I enjoyed the food at Monty's Good Burger in Riverside! They had a fun funky vibe. The vegan food was tasty, but I did feel that it was pretty expensive for what you get. Unfortunately, the food also ended up upsetting my stomach, which took away from the overall experience. The employees were always friendly and it was usually busy. This location is in the Riverside food lab sharing the building with other restaurants. It could be difficult to find a table and seat especially on the weekends. I recently found out that this location is permanently closed, so I'm glad I got to try it while it was still around. Overall, it was an okay experience, but not one that completely won me over.

At first, I wasn't sure if I wanted to stay since I had my mind set on an Italian sandwich, but after going over the menu, the owner recommended a Mediterranean dish he said was a favorite. I'm glad I trusted him because it was absolutely delicious! The best part is I don't have to drive all the way to Chino Hills anymore for Mediterranean food--this spot is much closer and the quality is excellent. The pizza also didn't disappoint; it tasted just as good as Pizza Fanzz used to, which brought back good memories. Overall, this place is a win for both pizza and Mediterranean food. Highly recommend checking it out.

Pizza crust is on the thinner side. Moist and chewier as you get to the crust. Moderate amount of cheese used, but could use a little bit more of cheese. The shawarma chicken topping on the pizza is tender, and it goes well with the garlic sauce. Also ordered the special mixed plate - the koobideh beef was cooked well done - would have been more tastier if it was cooked to medium. Too dry and hard to chew. But their rice was amazing! And so was their nann. Must eat right away when out of the oven! Owner is super friendly. Great customer service. Lot of sitting area. Tucked inside a corner of the plaza next to the Dollar Store. Hope this place thrives.
