Anytime someone goes on and on about how great something is, chances are it's gonna suck (the great BRUXELLES pomme frites debacle of 1996 comes to mind). In this case, however, the recommendation was spot on.
My Sunday dinner this week was had at Little Star Pizza, Divisidero Street location. They have a second location on Valencia and 15th, although some die-hards refuse to accept any other location than the one on 'Divis'.
I call those people losers.
Anyway, we started off with two appetizers, the Caprese Salad (picture directly above) and the garlic bread (just above that one). Although the salad was fairly standard, it was the garlic bread that was a standout for me. The bread was served warm along with super soft butter and baked garlic, each on the side. You spread the butter and the garlic yourself (as little or as much as you like), making for a divine marriage.
The pizza arrived and the real treat begins. The crust was perfectly baked and seemed to snap with every bite (hard to do as pizza tends to get a bit soggy after sitting out for a while). Our pie was topped with Salami, Sausage, Pepperoni, Green Peppers and Pepperoncinis. It was a sodium lover's delight and I'm going to have to ride the eliptycal for a month to work this off but it was totally worth it.
Fast and friendly service along with a great atmosphere (those who are sensitive to noise should heed the warning that it is quite loud here), make this little gem in the "NOPA" area of SF a must for pizza lovers.
losers, eh?
