Stark Street Pizza Company

I do like your pizza! Thank you. more

love their pizza! thin crust and they use the mini pepperonis which I think is so much better :) Decent salad bar too Pros: null Cons: null more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. We ordered the Pizza Co Supreme and got the most bland, flavorless, freezer burnt pizza we've ever tasted. We left half of it on the table. Ingredients were unripe and served anyway. Paper thin crust and sauce were like eating tomato paste on crackers. Hot wings were, as the very kind server described, "precooked and pre-spiced...sorry we don't have sauce but there's tobasco on the table". Dry wings. Service was very slow but everyone behind the counter was very nice and helpful. I asked for a comment card and they don't have those there...We love pizza, live 2 min away and we'll NEVER go back there. Digiorno's makes a better pizza for less than half the price. more

Pros: null Cons: null more

This place was awesome! I really enjoyed the sandwich and soup. Best salad bar for the price. The staff accomodated our large group without any problems, and even got our complicated order right! Nice pizza too if you like corn meal crust. I don't, but everything else was so good it didn't matter! more

All these raving reviews have to be planted, there is no way every review one after another can say nothing but good things about their pizza. Terrible, terrible, terrible! Spent $26. on a half/half pizza and got the worst pizza I have ever had. Although I ordered a family it was the size of a medium. Very light on the sauce and toppings. The crust was thin, dry and hard. Driving home I kept smelling a burnt smell. The bottom of the crust wasn't burnt but had black areas on the bottom. In tasting it it was like a frozen pizza. The crust had a burnt taste, as if they do not scrape down the ovens, it was so terrible and what a waste of $26.00!! I am going to call the manager today and see if I can get my money back (I saved the pizza to have him try) or get a decent pizza remade for my money.. I will repost the outcome here, but either way if this is the way they make pizza, don't waste your time or money here. Yes it's been around forever and is a landmark, but when your hung more

Yes it's been around forever and is a landmark, but when your hungry for pizza and get a pizza like this, it's really disapointing.. . Stay tuned on info on how the manager handled the situation!! more

My wife & I both grew up on Pietro's, and like many of the folks who are familiar with the classic style & taste of Pietro's pizzas, we tend to use that as a measuring stick against which all other pizzas must measure up. We've even been known to travel to Hood River or Milwaukie just to get our fix. But that was before we happened upon Stark Street Pizza, which still adheres to that classic pizza formula. It has since become our "old standby", and a staple of our diet. Pros: The Winterhawk, the TriplePlay, and mmm, the Gil Baker. Cons: Sadly, they don't deliver... more

The quality of the pizza is fantastic. I am a huge fan of their thin crust pizza! It is tasty and comes with lots of toppings. While a bit pricey, it is well worth it. The only draw back is their sometimes slow service. Especially when it is busy. I agree that the pace does not pick up when needed. Even so, it is well worth the wait! Pros: Great tasting food Cons: Slow service more

Looks like nobody has posted a review in 2010 for this establishment yet so here it is folks. In the evening hours of February 8th my family and I the unlucky guy that wasted $26.95 for an evening at S.S.P. ordered a Stark Street Special Pizza with the thick crust. While we waited a really long time to get our pizza we drank our Coke with a refillable glass which tasted bad. Clean those lines guys. Luckily it was refillable and we were able to grab a Sprite which was the only good part of the evening. Finally after waiting for about 45. minutes for the pizza we noticed upon taking those first bites it tasted like too much tomato paste with an over loading of cheese. During my second bite I noticed the peperoni was ok but the sausage tasted foul. My wife told me immediately that she thought it tasted bad. Our Son did not mind the soft crust ends but did not want to eat any other parts. After eating my second piece I was not happy with my experience and wanted to get my money refunded but they were hosting a Portland Winterhawks radio party and the place was too loud. Please note: we ordered the pie before all of the chaos. Also my wife is a chef at a local Thai food restaurant and she noticed that the cooking staff was not American because she is from overseas. She said,"" my issue with that is when it became busy nobody picked up the pace"". Everybody was cooking in slow motion unlike her place of employment. To top off our experience my son woke up feeling sick the next morning. Come to think of it my stomach felt bad too. SSP you wont see us again. Cons: S.S.P. stinks more

i love this place. it is a great place to take the kids. it reminds me of t-ball games way back when i was little going to pizza palors after games Pros: great food Cons: no delivery more

Not the best, but VERY GOOD, flavorful, a great thin crust pie. Will go there, again, when in Portland. The folks who gripe about canned mushrooms should read the menu. Fresh mushrooms are available upon request--at no extra charge. The staff was courteous, friendly, and quick. more

As a resident of Montavilla, we like to support local businesses. So, we wanted pizza one night and decided to give Stark Street Pizza a try. WHAT A MISTAKE!!!! I have never paid so much for so little. The pizza could barely feed 3 people for over $26.00. The crust was stale, hard to cut and tasted like cardboard. I kept wondering if the cardboard from box was stuck to the bottom of my slice. Did they go to the local grocery store and raid their frozen food section? The toppings were far from fresh and the mushrooms were definitely canned. You can't find mushrooms that look like that in nature... these have been processed for sure! Pros: Fast, good parking Cons: Pizza, price more

I wish they had one on the west side! The have the best pizza in town. The crust is perfect! They have a good salad bar. The staff is friendly. The parking is convenient. more

Stark Street Pizza Co has THE BEST pizza! The crust is perfect. They have a pretty good salad bar too. When we are ever over by Mall 205 we always will stop there! more

Pros: Luv the sauce ( Lots of time put in there) more

They have pizza and beer - what else do you need? There isn't a lot of seating, but I've never seen it crowded in there so it isn't a problem. It's good low-budget pizza with a thin crust. It's not gourmet pizza or anything like you'll see at some places, but it's good for the price. more

If you like rude counter staff, way too little pizza for your money, a crust that tastes and feels stale, then by all means, The Stark Street Pizza company is for you. If you like staff that works well with the public, tasty pizza, and a pizza that is actually big enough for two people to eat, then avoid The Stark Street Pizza company like the plague. I know I won't be going back. Pros: Good parking Cons: Everything else more

I'm so glad I met owner Robbie Robinson through slow pitch softball many years ago. If not I may not have tried his pizza as soon as I did. Not only is Robbie one of this cities great sponsors of softball over generations, but his Stark Street Pizza landmark restaurant ( open since '65) has the best pizza in the area! I personally like the large thin crust pepperoni, always been good and consistent, just what you're looking for, like in a good steady ballplayer. Right Robbie? I've also coached Little League teams, and I've had team meetings for the kids and their parents in the adjacent trophy room, that always impresses kids and adults alike. Thanks Robbie for all you've done for your community over the years and for continuing to offer great pizza and ice cold brew! While there, check out the impressive trophy case, this sponsor and his food are most definitely winners all around! Keep it up for at least a few more generations Rob! ... Bimbo L. Pros: immediate parking and service, great memory lane atmosphere, thin crust pizza Cons: owner not always there, but friendly workers none-the-less. more
