Description

Known for its deep-dish Chicago-style pies, Star Pizza also made a name for itself by being one of the first in town to offer a whole wheat crust. That and a generous amount of garlic make all its pies winners. Favorites are Joe's (with sautéed spinach) and Marilyn's (with Canadian bacon, pepperoni and onions). Pasta and sandwiches are also available. This is the original Lower Shepherd/Montrose location.

    Don't feel like going out? Microwave seem too complicated? The staff at Star Pizza will help. You won't hear any groans if you want to switch around your toppings one last time, or cover only half the pie in olives. Then again, you can always kick it old school with one of the classic options that Star has been serving Houston since 1976. Delivery people will happily bring change to your door, so you won't have to fish around for the exact amount. And once you open that box and the aroma of fresh pizza fills your place, you'll be glad you tipped the delivery guy an extra buck. To ensure freshness, Star delivers to a limited area, so if you're out of bounds, you may want to consider relocating.

  • 2000 | Best Pizzeria

    Americans spent more money last year on pizzas than they did on computers and software combined, or so says an industry trade group. At any rate, pizza is one subject about which nearly every American can be counted on to have an opinion. Why Star Pizza? It is not a chain, a "concept" or theme restaurant. The only reason to go there is the pizza. The two Star Pizza restaurants belong to their original founders, Hank and Marilyn Zwirek, who opened for business at the Norfolk location in 1976....
