Golden Star Restaurant

"As planes departed Long Beach airport overhead I enjoyed a perfect diner breakfast. I’m a sucker for a French toast plate and this did not disappoint. Even I. This economy it was a rational price for real food. If you need your bacon in a carbon consistency ask for well, mine was perfectly cooked (a little chew to it) and the coffee was the best diner coffee I’ve had in a long time! (And they serve real maple syrup) I’ll be back for the spaghetti and meatballs special on Wednesday for sure!"

"Our 1st time on a Thursday around 6pm. There were like two other parties of two eating there. We were greeted and seated down right away. The place is celebrating 60 years, it's family owned. The seats go around most of the table and are hard and old. They could really use some work. Nevertheless, we were excited to check out this place. The host was nice and brought menus. He took our drink order and came back shortly to take our order. The wifey and I both ordered burgers. She went with the avocado burger and onion rings, I went with 1/3 LB cheeseburger with fried zucchini. The food took a bit, and when it came out, we jumped right in. Everything looked great and big in size. The zucchini was great with ranch dressing. The onion rings along with the burgers were lacking flavor. We both found ourselves adding black pepper and a little bit of salt to bring out the flavor. I think the meat patty and the breading used on onion rings could use some seasoning. The servers came around a few times to check on us. We thought that was nice. The food could definitely use more flavor for our taste, but the place and service were good."

"This place is like a time machine when all restaraunts were "mom and pop" joints. I had the seafood appetizer and it was pretty tasty. There was a heaping portion of food."

"Worst service I have ever had. The place was empty maybe about 3 tables were occupied. Idk if the waitress was tired, but she was acting annoyed with us and the family that came after us. She kept forgetting to bring us little things. I never got my water, and my husband got the shrimp and steak, and they forgot the shrimp. She brought him small breaded shrimp, and when on the menu, it says jumbo shrimp, then when I asked for my fruit plate, she said annoyingly "yeah I know it's coming." It took a really long time to get my daughters fruit plate. We will never return to that place again. We still left her a tip because we don't really know her situation. But I still believe she should have at least faked it. Oh, and they don't have changing tables for babies in the restroom."

"My wife and I visited this restaurant for the first time, and this is my review: The good: 1. Ample parking and plenty of tables available. 2. Prices are cheap. The bad: 1. There is not anyone greeting you upon arrival, and this brings a sense of no one caring. 2. Although the waitress was not rude, she could have been more friendly and attentive. The ugly: 1. The quality of food is poor. 2. No flavor at all. 3. Turkey bacon was almost burned, and toast was very, very greasy. Summary: You get what you pay for. Overall, this would be my last choice..."
