The Star Portland delights pizza lovers with its "amazing" deep dish and Detroit-style pizzas, complemented by "super friendly" service. Guests rave about the "wonderful" staff and vibrant atmosphere, including a cozy patio.

    Excellent food as always! We started with a large Caesar salad and an order of the Cheesy Garlic Dippers - do not sleep on those dippers! They are always absolutely amazing! Then we had a large Old School, Detroit Style. It was great, though I prefer the Deep Dish crust, we wanted to try something different. All delicious, and the service was impeccable!

    Missed both good NY pizza and Chicago deep dish pizza since moving to the NW. The deep dish pizza here is great, as was the service. Will have to try their thin crust pizza sometime. Their Detroit pizza was very good.

    Service very slow. Didn’t seem to have enough help. Services were rushing from table to table. Bet it’s worse in the kitchen. At least 40 minutes to get our food and then the pizza was mediocre at best. Won’t go there again!

    The staff is over the top friendly and informative. The pizzas are amazing and the craft cocktails wonderful. My only complaint is the bathroom was filthy. Looked liked it had not been cleaned from the busy Saturday night before.

    We were super excited to go get some deep dish pizza but we were extremely disappointed. We had the biggest raw onions all over our pizza and when we asked our waiter about it she said it was just in the tomato sauce they put on top of the pizza. But that doesn’t make sense since the other pizzas we ordered didn’t have onions on them. We picked the onions off as much as we could but we only ate two pieces and the rest went in the garbage. We made a special trip to Portland for this pizza and we were disappointed
