Well you could use the switch function,

www.php.net/switch

Its easy ....

like

"Mysql info here pulling the rating and storing in $rating"
switch ($rating) {
case 1:
  echo "This is a * dinner";
  break;
case 2:
  echo "This is a ** dinner";
  break;
case 3:
  echo "This is a *** dinner";
  break;
}
And so on... You get it?
