Awesome thick crust pizza. I love Little Star, but I hate the wait. There is always a line for Little Star, but with good reason. This pizza is a San Francisco staple. Located in Hayes Valley, this is a fun, hip restaurant filled with an affluent, young crowd. Great for a group of friends, but as mentioned, expect a wait.

I don't ordinarily like deep-dish pizza, but I love this pizza. I'm super picky about tomato sauce, but theirs is really great. They also have great wings. Seriously.

Although Little Star is still great, it's slipped a bit in recent months. The last time we went, we were told that the wait would be about 20 minutes. After waiting close to an hour and half, we finally got our table. Thankfully, we knew exactly what we wanted by that point, so we were eating soon after. They have their off-nights quality-wise, but it's usually very good. If you're a crust fan, you'll be in heaven the first time you taste their buttery cornmeal offering.

Not only did our pizzas look the same but they tasted similar as well. We split two small deep dish pizzas, and although both pizzas had completely different toppings, the pizzas tasted almost identical. The fresh tomatoes, though flavorful, overpowered the toppings and cheese of the pizza. The crust was too bland for my taste. The pizza is certainly not bad but it's not great either.

Little Star is a little slice of heaven. It's like an upscale pizza place and can feel like a bar at night - very dark, loud music...in a good way of course. They have great selection of beers (Racer 5!) and wines. Now to the food...the large salads are huge and good for sharing. I love the "Classic" thin crust pizza. To be honest, I always get that so I can't really say what other thin crusts are good. I do get the Mediterranean thick crust - it's SO good, and I normally hate thick crust. It's not like NY sicilian pizza - it's more like Chicago style - very heavy with sauce on top. It's definitely delish. Overall, good place for any occassion.

What is it about Little Star that rules so much?? Although they are known for their deep dish, this place has insanely good thin crust. It's all about the crust here. Just so damn good - once you try it once you'll be hooked. The hour long wait is worth it, not a bad place to have a glass of wine while you're waiting. I hear takeout isn't quite the same experience..
