About this restaurant

The Star features the same delicious Chicago-style deep dish pizza that made Little Star Pizza famous, with their consistent Guardian's Best of the Bay Pizza.

We are family friendly and accept reservations for large parties as well. We look forward to you joining us!

    We celebrated my daughter’s birthday with friends and family. Our server was tremendous and very accommodating! We had a great experience. Excellent service. I just wish thru would bring back the “Spicy Sausage/Diablo” pizza !

    Thank you fro much for coming to Star On Grand to celebrate the birthday and for the kind words about our team member! We can still sort of do the Spicy Italian, just with regular sausage instead of the Calabrese sausage.

    Great service and reliably delicious Little Star pizza, including a vegan/GF one for one in our party. Generously sized salads and tasty, not to sweet mocktails were great too! Reasonable prices.

    Absolutely love their pizza and the wedge salad was delicious. But most of all their cocktails have always been a solid foundation (we had the Manhattan and old-fashioned). Our service was outstanding…whereas the competition down the street is some of the worse I’ve seen. Opportunity for improvement: It’s time to refinish the tables. It seem that the cleaning product may have eaten away at the finish, causing him to be slightly sticky.

    Great service from wait staff. Enjoyed both deep dish and Detroit style pies. It wasn’t a super busy night, so the pies came out sooner than the anticipated wait time.

    Two of us split a small Ceasars salad, a small roasted cauliflower and a small pizza. We liked all three and it was the perfect amount of food
