Summary Review: 2 stars (out of 5)
Detailed Review:
Crust: The crust at Star Pizzeria has medium thickness. It has an appealing crispy texture on the outside, but it is soggy and droopy underneath the toppings. My pizza was perfectly baked, and that might be the best thing I can say about this crust. Score: 4/10.
Sauce: The sauce appears in sufficient quantity, but it does not have a lot of flavor. Score: 5/10.
Cheese: The cheese appears in excellent quantity, and it also does not produce a lot of grease. The cheese is the strength of this pizza. Score: 10/10.
Toppings: Both toppings appear in high quantity but horrible quality. The sausage is the putrid pellet variety. The pepperoni comes in thin slices with little flavor. These are some of the worst toppings I have tasted recently. Score: 2/10.
Overall Taste: The cheese is the tastiest part of this pizza, which says a lot about everything else. Score: 6/10.
Pizza Appearance: The pellet sausage is distracting to the appearance, which is otherwise fine.
Dining Atmosphere: Star Pizzeria’s small dining room is functional but no more.
Customer Service: My pizza took 30 minutes to make even though
they were not busy, and the man at the counter was not exactly the friendliest
person in Texas.
Monetary Value: When you factor in the two Dr. Peppers and the 12”
size, the price is reasonable for this kind of pizza, but it is not great value
due to the poor quality.
The Final Judgment:
In my view of the pizza galaxy, Star does not shine brightly. Score: 64/100.
