Brian Strauss

One of the elite pizza places in Oakland. Not better than Zachary 's, but with a very nice full bar and just as kid friendly , it may edge out Zachary 's in terms of the overall experience.

Matt Opsahl

Sat at the bar on a quiet Saturday afternoon and enjoyed the zucchini flat crust pizza , which was just enough for two. Delicious! Would like to come back for a date night for pizza and beer/cocktails.

Diana León

Great Pizzas , great location, great ambiance! Love the option to personalized my pizza , gluten-free, and my guests can have their pizzas thin crust or deep fry. They have happy hour , too!

Luxurylatte

On weekdays they have individual sizes available in either deep dish or regular. Great cornmeal crust. Full Bar ! Plenty of room. It's not a Little Star, it's "The Star".

K.C. Murphy

Amazing pizza - the crust on the deep dish is crunchy goodness. Excellent cocktails , great atmosphere, often difficult to stop by - make a reservation .

The corn bread crust works best with deep dish but the thin crust is passable. Would pick it over Zachary 's any day. NB: the garlic bread is plain sourdough with ramekins of butter and roasted garlic .

Dena Goldberg

The pizza was cooked to perfection! It was the perfect balance of dough and crunch with so much flavor.

Cameron Wilson

Four of us shared a large meatball appetizer and a large Telegraph deep dish pizza . Amazing value, absolutely delicious.

Sharon P.

So incredibly addicted to this place. Sorry Zachary 's, The Star is better. We often order pick-up and get the Gold Coast deep dish almost every time.

Steffie Moser

The table didn't fit two people but we made the best of it. The pizza as always is amazing. Remember it's 30mins for the deep dish .

Linda Roman

The meatballs are good as well as the pizza and the wings got to order them crispy !!!! Definitely recommend

Sebastin Kolman

They have changed the menu and they dropped one of my favorites (The Telegraph). Even the quality has dropped. The last few visits have been underwhelming.

Marta Tappero

Service is very very nice! The cocktails are ok. The food is good, is just such a particular style that I think you can find better around. For the same price. Overall good, not fantastic.

Michelle Alexandria

Pizza was amazing! The baked wings are delicious, must try! Warning: wings are on the spicer end.

Ellen McGrody

Amazing pizza place ! Lovely, crumbly crust, wonderful atmosphere, and great service!

Ronan Flynn-Curran

Best deep dish pizza in the bay (sorry z) with great cocktails and local beers too.

Chloe Condon

Great for large groups! Accommodated us super late minute, and the pizza was amazing!

SherryJoon

The broadway terrace pizza is amazing. We had it for dinner and woke up wanting to back for breakfast .

djs

Lively deep dish with tasty crust. Small pizza is enough for two.

Matt Dermody

Great that you can choose between deep dish Chicago style and regular pies

Chris Leishman

Great pizza and a great bar to sit at and watch a game!

Amanda Moreland

The pizzas are all amazing. New favorite pizza spot in Oakland.

The spicy baked chicken wings were damn good. They got Linden Street Black Lager on tap too.

Craig Wright

I am a big fan of the Goddess salad and the Port pizza . The cocktails are good, and strong. :)

stu sweetow

The best! Cornmeal crust done right. Sauce with tomato morsels.

Lil Mike

It's dark in here... use the light from your phone screen to read the menu & peruse the bold beer selections & skimpy salads

Tina D

Great cocktails , goddess salad , meatballs and Tribune pizza are favs.

Anything deep dish . Green goddess salad is super tasty too
