Star Pizza has been family-owned since 1976, building its reputation on Chicago-style deep dish made from scratch: dough, pizza sauce, and marinara all come out of its own commissary kitchen, along with a proprietary cheese blend mixed daily by a crew that includes staff with more than 25 years on the job. Gluten-free dough and sauce are made in-house as well.
The deep dish is the draw, and the steak pizza comes up often alongside it, but the menu extends to salads and a rotating beer list. A lunch buffet runs alongside the regular menu, and the dining room leans casual and family-friendly, with service known for accommodating dietary requests.
Nearly fifty years in, Star Pizza has grown into a small local chain, with locations across Houston including one near Washington Avenue and Memorial Park.
