Comfortable little joint with not a crazy noise level, Little Star Pizza is on Divisadero Street, nestled between Fulton and McAllister streets, and boasts of a delicious menu. Rightly so.
Got a table for 4 easily on a Saturday afternoon with metered parking almost right outside! We got lucky with the parking bit though; It's San Francisco, I wouldn't guarantee parking ANYWHERE.
We started off with the garlic bread for appetizers, which did not disappoint. Warm, buttery, topped with garlic, mozzarella and some basil, just writing about it makes me want to go have some more!
Though the deep dish pizzas are supposed to be a specialty there, we decided to go with the thin crust ones. Ordered a large one half Classic paired with another half of Italian Combo, and another large one with half and half of Greek and the Little Star (although it is not mentioned in the Thin Crust section, they were nice enough to do it for us). For those of you who can satiate your appetite with 2-3 slices of pizza, DO NOT get the large ones! Even if you're splitting it. When they say LARGE, they mean LARGE!
Additional brownie points for their space-saver pizza serving dish! All the ingredients and the toppings seemed extremely fresh and well cooked. Even when I opened my to-go box the next morning and devoured the leftover slices after heating them in a microwave, they tasted good :)
The servers were very polite, and refrained from making small talk which made the lunch easier to get through! There was a table right behind us seating a small cute kid, who insisted on giving his opinion on everything from the size of the fork to the food being served. He was kept thoroughly entertained by the servers, much to our delight because when you're enjoying a nice meal, you do NOT want a wailing kid for company.
Would I go back there? Definitely!
4/5 stars.
