Hei-Yu TangSeptember 7, 2015This places serves amazing pizza. The thin crust pizza has is super crunchy all the way in the middle. No soggy crust. The deep dish pizza is really a whole another pizza experience. Worth the try!

Ashok LalwaniApril 23, 2015Probably the best deep dish pizza I have had in SF. I prefer This place over Patxi's or Blue Line. The extra bit of garlic makes all the difference i think.

BommyMarch 6, 2016Cornmeal thin crust is my favorite pizza in sf. Garlic bread + small half white pie and half garlic, kale, & fontina (special on blackboard) + wine = 🌟
Upvote1Downvote- BommyJanuary 25, 2016Garlic bread is divine. Deep dish takes 30 min but can order ahead while waiting for a table. White pie with zucchini and tomatoes on a cornmeal thin crust is amazing. $1 extra for a half/half pizza.

Deep dish is so good and filling, and the thin crust is great too. The crusts on both are awesome - crunchy, a little buttery, and with great flavor. Great for takeout and deliveryUpvote1Downvote
Bohdan HnatkovskyyJune 13, 2015The best place to have a deep dish pizza in San Francisco. Try Little Star, you will never find the same in any other place.Upvote2Downvote
steenMarch 30, 2018Try more than 1 flavour easy with the half and half option for a dollar extra. Skip the kale and if you’re feeling extra ambitious, get the garlic bread.

J JohnNovember 3, 2021The deep dish pizza is miles away from Pizzeria Due & Geno’s East in Chicago. Locally, Zelda’s in Sacramento is prb the best deep dish pie. Thin crust pizza is excellent here as is the serviceUpvoteDownvote- BommyDecember 16, 2014Recommend going deep dish 1/2 mediterranean chicken and 1/2 little star. Cornmeal crust makes the pizza. Crust is crispy and thick, so no soggy pizza!

Alex GronbachDecember 28, 2018Cheesy and indulgent without being greasy! Great deep dish and thin crust pizza, although the deep dish had way more tomato than expected, still delicious though.UpvoteDownvote
Pacific UnionFebruary 21, 2013Love the deep-dish vegetarian and the thin-crust Italian Combo. But there's often a wait at night, so be ready to kill some time.Upvote1Downvote
Everything. I recommend everything. Definitely have the caprese salad with whatever delicious pizza.Upvote4Downvote
Brian PokornyJanuary 16, 2014Try Patxis first, then you will truly appreciate how good little star is. get a sausage, spinach, mushroom deep dish. it's the best combo!UpvoteDownvote
FarshidMay 12, 2013The deep dish pizza is well baked and tasty here but don't forget to try the chicken wings too. Its baked but crispy and spicy too :)UpvoteDownvote

Jeff WeinsteinAugust 21, 2014Order ahead for pick up. Large deep dish with spinach, mushrooms, basil, olives, and sausage. Salad too.UpvoteDownvote
ClandestineDrinkerAugust 24, 2019Get the Sausage and Mushroom Deep Dish and choose a beer or wine from their well thought out list.UpvoteDownvote
Laura CNovember 17, 2011They serve both thin and thick crust and they do both options just right. Daily specials change constantly and seasonally and always surprise. No reservations and cash only.UpvoteDownvote
The first time someone ordered the thin crust pizza I mocked them. Now, I realize one of the best things on the menu (Greek thin) was hiding in plain sight all along.UpvoteDownvote- Cari WinterichApril 14, 2015So yummy! I prefer thin crust but this deep dish pizza rivals even the best Chicago pizza!UpvoteDownvote
Vincent QuanAugust 22, 2018Deep dish pizza here is best in the Bay Area. I think it’s better than most places in ChicagoUpvoteDownvote
Robin TilottaJune 8, 2013It's tempting to devote the entire meal to deep dish deliciousness but save room for the yummy mixed salad.UpvoteDownvote
Cary MartinezJuly 12, 2013We had the thin crust Pesto Chicken and garlic bread for appetizer... It was really good! Great Spot!UpvoteDownvote- Tye ChaitOctober 6, 2014Really nice atmosphere, good deep dish and thin crust. It gets busy so get here early!UpvoteDownvote

Mihika VermaAugust 27, 2016The deep dish pizza is great but be prepared to wait a little while as it takes longer to makeUpvoteDownvote
Both the deep dish and thin crust are good. The Mediterranean Chicken is particularly good.UpvoteDownvote
Carrie HigginsNovember 2, 2013Waiting for a table? Put your deep dish order in ahead of time. The "little star" with basil added is the best.UpvoteDownvote
Liz McLean KnightJune 7, 2016Authentic Chicago style deep dish. PS: Chicagoans only eat it when guests are in town.UpvoteDownvote
Try the little star deep dish (add pepperoni minus onions) if you'd like to blow your very own mindUpvoteDownvote
