Starla's

There is a HUGE misunderstanding that this is a pizza place, this is NOT a pizza place it is a wine bar the makes pizza. They can only cook 4 pizzas at a time. THEY HAVE NO PHONE LISTED, no way to contact for info, they don’t care about your convenience of time. We would’ve gladly went somewhere else but since we read other reviews saying it is the best pizza around, we went in to order and had to wait an hour and half for a personal pizza. Many postings about them having a wood burning pizza oven, but the truth is look at the pictures, it is a simple stainless steel electric oven. They just turn off the ordering option on their website with no reason so you are compelled to go in, their website should let you know they can only make 4 pizzas at a time and they get backed up and cannot make more pizzas. To be fair, the pizza was awesome and perfectly cooked and great tasting pizzas we had but not knowing how you are going to get it, IF YOU ARE GOING TO GET A PIZZA, because if they get backed up they pus put signs up outside that they are “sold out” without posting online. I don’t like a 50/50 chance you may get to order a pizza. If you are going for wine it may be a 5 Star but we just happen to be there for Pizza. There was only 2 servers who took orders and served, no apologies for the wait or inconvenience going out of your way to find out they are sold out or over an hour wait for a personal size pizza.

fantastic little wine and pizza place. Pizza was exceptional, high quality ingredients cooked perfectly. The wine selection offers exclusively organic wines which is excellent. The staff is friendly and prices reasonable. Do note that the prices you see on the wine bottles are for drinking it there(includes corkage) if you buy the wine to take home it's significantly less money.

Good food, friendly staff, and atmosphere, but the lack of table service and having to wait in lines to order is a major drawback, especially at peak times. Sausage pizza was fantastic with its chili oil but surprisingly skimpy on the actual sausage, but the stracciatella was EPIC! No hard liqour, which is strange for the atmosphere which begs cocktails.

The best Neapolitan pizza cooked in a PizzaMaster PM402ED-DW Dual Chamber Double Width Electric Countertop Pizza Oven at a Target Temperature of 630 Fahrenheit with the Top Heat Intensity set to 9 and Bottom Heat Intensity set to 4.

Pizza Perfection! Truly amazing pizza - easily among the top 5 I ever had. Perfect crust, great sauce, and delicious combination of toppings. Easily five stars for the food. The atmosphere and the lack of enthusiasm of the staff leaves something to be desired.

We had a great meal at Starla’s. Nice ambiance and good service. Highly recommend all the antipasto and Caesar salad! So delish. Pizza was very good! I very much recommend Starla’s if you’re looking for a good low key but delicious meal. I love Bellingham but its food scene has been lacking for years. I am very glad to see some new good restaurants in town. Hometown change I can get behind. Nice job y’all!

Extremely well curated from the wine selection, to the ambiance, the music and of course the food. We loved it! Exactly the kind of date night or hang with your friends wine spot that Bellingham needs. The staff is friendly but more importantly knowledgeable about wine so feel free to ask if you’re intimidated by the list and need help picking something out to drink. Can’t wait to go back. Starla’s is excellent addition to the Bellingham Restaurant Scene.

This place is amazing. We came here for our anniversary dinner and the vibe was perfect. Cozy, great ambiance, lots of little nooks. It felt very European. They brought out a little candle once the sun set. Pizza was SO good. So was the Caesar salad—it comes with breadcrumb croutons and a cloud of Parmesan. Fun wine selection. Lots of great attention to detail in their decoration and service. My only wish would be to have a little dessert selection! Maybe a cannoli? Tiramisu? Or even just a pairing with a local dessert place?

Cozy, casual wine bar but that dinner mean lack luster or boring. A strong wine line up is available for selecting from the board inside with help from their knowledgeable staff, if needed. Wine pours, or bottles, are served up alongside changing plates of bites that are great for snacking or sharing. This is the perfect spot to sit and share wine, food, and a good time with your friends or family and maybe relive some of Blotto's good ol' times. Like what you drank? They offer a well curated selection of bottles for retail, mostly from Europe. This neighborhood bar hits the spot.

It was a decent experience but didn't live up to the hype of the article I read about it. Food, service, and venue all fine for an average meal but no wow factor at all. Not a big fan of restaurants that dont list a phone number on their web site in case you need to reach them. Also not a big fan of restaurants that need tou to take a key to access a shared building bathroom. Pizza dine but underwhelming. Their oven was a big let down as it looks like a giant sheet metal toaster and only seemed to operate at the 600ish degree range. Pizza crust was food but the pizza was over burnt for such a the pizza and very dried out. Ceaser salad tasted good but was a miniscule portion size. Odd didn't see any Pellegrino sparkling water on the beverage list. Went to two Bellingham area pizza restaurants on the same night. The other one outshine this place in every aspect.

Upbeat, fun bar to enjoy spending time with friends and family while having a variety of delicious pizzas and an array of natural wines and superb beer selection. The menu changes with the seasons and always serves appetizers, salads, and specialty food items.

We celebrated my birthday at Starla's last night. Cozy place, casual, knowledgeable staff! Bellingham is not a "foodie" town, one heads to BC or Seattle for that. But, I have to say, the pizza was over-the-top amazing, probably the best I've ever had. And I highly recommend the hot honey for a topping! The wine was really great also. I just ordered the house red and was happy with that. The wine menu looked interesting - I'll explore more next time. I wish Starla's a great and long-running success. We'll be back.

I read about the pizza in the Seattle Times and it lived up to the hype. One of the best in town.

A cute new wine bar in downtown Bellingham. A perfect place to meet friends for a nice glass of wine and some small bites. The friendly, knowledgeable owners make for a delightful place.
