My fiance and I used to love Star Pizza. We would order delivery at least once a week. For some reason we tapered off last year, and for the first time in many many months we ordered it again last night. After ordering, it took about an hour to get here. Upon opening it up, we realize they left off one of the main ingredients, and it was cold and hard to boot!
We called them and told the man that answered that our Margherita pizza had no basil on it. He offered to make us a new one (yay!) or send us some basil (um, what?). We opted for them to make us a new one, but then he said he would be taking the old one back with him!
I absolutely cannot believe a pizza place would deliver an incorrect, cold pizza, and then want it back, and tell us not to eat anymore!! What were they going to do with it? That is so far beyond sanitary that it made me never, ever want to eat there again.
If they wanted to make doubly-sure we didnt get a pizza free, then I honestly find that offensive. I refuse to even fathom them wanting it to re-sell, as slices or something.
The pizza we finally got (AN HOUR LATER--making us wait over TWO HOURS for the correct pizza!!) was pretty good, but it was tainted by the bitterness of disappointment and disbelief.
Go sit in the restaurant. Dont order delivery. Its not worth it.
- Pros: If you get a hot one made correctly, its awesome.
- Cons: Really crappy service, apathetic employees.
The best or second best pizza in town

My girlfriend and I are both students, and as such enjoy unique (non-chain) joints with great food and reasonable prices - thats exactly what you're getting with Stars. If you go expecting plush decor and smartly dressed waiteresses, you'll be disappointed. This is a good old no frills pizza place with both New York and Chicago styles to choose from. As vegetarians, I can't comment on the meat offerings, but the veggie special includes a bunch of juicy toppings like broccoli, mushrooms, etc. Its a toss-up between Star and Frank's as to who does the 'best' pizzas in town, but if we're talking toppings I'd have to go with Star!
- Pros: Awesome pizza, with both NY and Chicago styles. Friendly customers.
- Cons: Could do with more veggie options maybe.
bad service and takes FOREVER

we went on a Sat and ordered a medium pizza and I am not making this up, it took over an hour and a half to get our pizza while we waited and waited 4 other people (who came in after us) ate before us. Horrible. The server didn't care that it took forever and did not give us any explaination. we didn't even bother to speak to the manager we were so angry.
- Pros: good pizza but not worth the wait
- Cons: horible service and takes FOREVER
Best pizza in Houston

If you can't get to Chicago, Star Pizza is the closest thing in Houston. It can get crowded on weekends, but they usually keep up with demand. Parking is not great, but you can usually find a spot on the streets near by.
- Pros: Great pizza
- Cons: parking

This place is really excellent for tasty, real pizza that is made to order. I have always had excellent service and a perfectly done pizza every time. The wait staff is friendly and attentive, there's always parking, and it's a perfect place to bring a crowd.
- Pros: excellent pizza, made to order, parking, service
- Cons: Gets crowded on weekend
I love this place!

This was my first time at Star Pizza. I would definitely come back for lunch, and even dinner. I love this place. If your in the mood for fantastic food in an uber-trendy atmosphere, you will probably love it, too. The was great and the waitstaff , albeit overtly cool, was very friendly. Try the Margherita Pizza or the Rosemary & Garlic Grilled Chicken Sandwich.
- Pros: Excellent food. Freindly Staff. Casual atmosphere.
- Cons: None
