Highly recommended by Sonia C. We dined in after a matinee BroadwaySF performance. Both Little Star Pizza locations were pretty close by, but we chose this Divisadero location in the residential area for easier parking.
A little hard to spot the sign behind the tree from across the street, but we found it. Seated right away. Started with the Burrata Caprese ($15) to share, and also decided on splitting a Large DD (Deep Dish), half and half.
The Burrata was super fresh tomato, basil, olives. Could have used more pieces of toast, or maybe our ratios of toppings to toast were off, ha.
Sonia's DD pizza half was Build Your Own where she had red sauce, pesto, mozzarella, goat cheese, sun-dried tomato, bacon, and I forget what else. My half was pretty simple, the Meateor 2.0 (pepperoni, sausage, caramelized red onion, mushrooms, and chili flakes).
Note that you can get either the thin crust or deep dish, and for thin crust Small is 12" and Large is 16", while for DD the Small is 9" and the Large is 12".
Each half of the pizza ended up being 4 slices total. After the burrata app, I had 3 slices of my Meateor and tried one slice of Sonia's as the finisher. That is to say, it finished me. Should have taken a bite and taken the rest to go, as it left me royally stuffed for the drive home...the two cheeses really made it pretty rich/heavy to eat. Still good though! The crust was crispy and maybe a cornmealy texture/flavor I couldn't place.
According to their social media page, this original location of Little Star would be closing for good late December 2023 or late January 2024, but they do have the other SF location (Mission) and others around the Bay (Litte Star Albany, The Star Oakland, The Star Alameda).
