"The pizza here is absolutely delicious! I stumbled upon this place after another well-known pizzeria was closed, and I'm so glad I did. I ordered the sausage pizza with broccoli (I can't recall its exact name on the menu). They make their pizza in a brick oven, which adds to the flavor. One pizza and an appetizer were enough for two people. We tried the meatballs as our appetizer—two large meatballs served with red sauce, and they were fantastic. I've heard that this place is also famous for its pasta, which we didn't get to try, but we definitely plan to return soon to sample it."

The food was delicious and satisfying, with generous portion sizes. However, I found the soda to be quite pricey at $3.00 for a small bottle.

Ordered via DoorDash and what a waste of $34... The oxtails were way too sweet. The rice and peas were mushy and unappetizing. The cabbage lacked flavor. And, lastly, I've learned my lesson and will not be ordering from here again.

I ordered dinner through Uber Eats, and I have to say, OMG! This is the best food I’ve had in a long time. The goat and rice is absolutely delicious, and the jerk chicken is amazing. I will definitely be ordering dinner from here again!

"We were there celebrating two birthdays. Our server Faith was wonderful. She was attentive without being intrusive and knowledgeable about the menu. We were a table of 6 and ordered quite a bit of food, some of which was great and others lackluster. The bao buns were great and the small calamari salad was huge and those who had it said delicious. The spareribs were good as well as the edamame dumplings, although the way those were served made it hard to fully enjoy. Each dumpling should be on a individual type spoon so you can enjoy the soup part as well as the dumpling. The way they were served in one large bowl with only one spoon made it so the soup part is left at the bottom. I did request extra spoons from the expediter but they never came. The worst part of our appetizer course was somehow an item was switched to another in the computer and served to us. It had shellfish in it and that wasn’t known when someone at our table who doesn’t eat shellfish ate it. The sashimi was good but the tuna tartare thing was really bad. The entrees we had were the duck, which I was told was delicious, the miso cod, which was fishy, the whole fish which was tasteless, the lobster fried rice, which was okay but lacking flavor. The best dish was the black pepper beef, it was delicious and elegantly served. We had all the sides and all were quite good especially the eggplant and the wasabi mashed potatoes. It was a nice evening but it felt a little stale for a Starr restaurant."
