We LOVED this pizza! The owners (father and son) were there and they spoke with us about the hardships of having a restaurant in today's economy. We really felt for them and honestly I'm surprised because the pizza was phenomenal. They have lots more on their menu I'd love to try as well. We will be back for sure. read more

Stopped here while visiting the brewery next door. Gentleman behind the counter was very friendly and prompt. I ordered a deep dish with sausage and peppers. It was fantastic. Its not what I considered a deep dish, but it was still delicious I can over look that. Its more of a thick crust. Its not really a place to eat in, but pick up and can go to the park down the street for a picnic. read more

This place is a gem and if I lived here in this areas this place would get my business.

Secondly when we arrived the place is very clean and again the service was awesome. The pizza itself was fantastic! Great job all around! read more

Hands down the best pizza if you like NY style! Calzones are amazing also. Father and son owned, I believe. They are courteous and friendly and even when we move back into our home in Medina, I will continue to frequent Big Star Pizza! read more

Best Philly cheesesteak i have ever had I try places now and they don't compare give this place a 10/10

The menu offers a wide variety of choices. The food was high quality and fresh. We ordered a calzone, pizza, and salad and they were the best we've had in this area. The staff were friendly and conscientious. Give this place try - you won't be disappointed. read more

Awesome independent local pizza shop in Copley! Excellent pizza, calzones, salad and subs. We ordered take-out for a few family members and all of us enjoyed the food made at Big Star. Tasty, delicious and made fresh! This family owned establishment serves really great food! We tried the NY style pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms and loved it. Great seasoning and sauce! The crust had a crunch to it and since it was NY style, could fold the crust. Also enjoyed the salad. Fresh lettuce and veggies and meat. You need to try the house dressing, also excellent. I personally didn't get to try the calzone or meatball sub we ordered as other family members got to those too quickly, but they were very happy with how fresh and tasty both were. Looking forward to eating here again soon! The people who work here are great too and work very hard at making delicious food. read more

Delicious Calzones, Stromboli, & Sicilian Pizza. Highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area. I drive by everyday, and decided to stop in with my two boys. They loved the cheese calzone & ham/pepperoni stromboli. I got the Deluxe Sicilian pizza. The service was great and to the point. The boys got the best "cheese-pulls" from this place. I will definitely be coming back. read more

7 out of 9 times the place isn't open ? the food is ok, the old man is rude and no carry out menu at all. hit or miss if open, food is ok, service not so much. too far out of the way for this kinda tude ! told last night place was closing early for some reason and they didn't answer phones while we were there and would not let us dine in. They obviously do not care about reviews; just figure they are golden. read more

Always delicious, super fresh pizza, love the crumbled sausage and NY style crust! Salads are great and mozzarella sticks are awesome! Our favorite place for pizza on Akron West Side! read more

When the Father puts his hands on your pizza order, the results are deliciousness. Time traveled taste to NY city Bronx, there's flavor in the cheese at Big Star Pizza, with pepperoni slices in each bite. #Yummy read more

Enjoyed both the NY and Sicilian Style pizzas. Both were baked well, had a crisp crust and the crust, sauce, cheese ratios were spot on. Service was extremely friendly. read more

Big Star Pizza - New York Style (Medium) Pizza, Sicilian Style (Medium) Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Copley, Ohio

Ordered a medium New York style pizza with pepperoni and sausage. I'm from New York, so I'm always looking for a place that makes that style. The crust was perfect, the pepperoni was fine, but the cheese and the sausage could use some work. read more

Great food, great service, great staff. If you liked the old Scottos pizza in Akron, you will love this place!!

Best New York style pizza I've had in Ohio . Coming from new York myself it's the best I've had since leaving New York.

So.... I've been wanting to try this for a while. Ended up ordering a large New York style pizza with pepperoni and half banana peppers... of note, took it to a park in willoughby so I didn't eat it immediately. It was awesome. Now, on occasion I like thick crust or more cheese or whatever, but this is exactly what they say it is.... the toppings were good, the crust was awesome and we really enjoyed it. Equally important... the owner (I assume the owners son) was a cool dude who I could see myself getting a beer with. Just a nice wonderful business. I'll definitely be back. read more

Great NY style pizza. The thin crust and delicious cheese make for the area's best pizza.

This is the most pathetic gyro I've ever had. There is only 2 thin slices of meat on it and tons of lettuce and little tomato and onion. And this was the large gyro. $5.75 for this is robbery. Their New York pizza was gas station quality pizza. It barely had any sauce or cheese or any other of the toppings we ordered. The calzones was surprisingly good. read more

Big Star Pizza - Pathetic gyro - Pizza Near Me - Copley, Ohio

Delicious hot pizza every time ! If you haven't tried the Stromboli yet PLEASE DO! absolutely amazing !! 10/10 recommend

They are just trying to do too much. You cannot have:sandwiches, pizza, hotdogs, apps, gyros,and do them all well. And yes it is the same Scottos from Summit Mall. But no it will not taste the same because they have different ingredient providers. Cool little family business, just needs to stick to pizza, calzones, and salads. read more

Lots of old reviews.. so let's give them an update... good local family running a solid pizza oven!!! Fits the New York style and super good.... Get it a little well done for a good crisp... this is not standard Ohio pizza. Take a minute to talk with the owners and you will understand. read more

I just tried this place tonight for the first time. I ordered a New York Style Pizza with half pepperoni and half cheese and a calzone with pepperoni, sausage, and green peppers. The food was hot and fresh. It is quality pizza and the service is friendly. I think the best part of the pizza and calzone was the sauce. It's not overly sweet and generic tasting like so many pizza places I've been to. read more

This place rocks. Love their subs and pizzas. It's our go to pizza place in the area.

We just moved to Copley and wanted really good pizza. Big Star had 5 star review. The pizzas were very bland and not flavored well to our taste. The large pepperoni pizza did not have much pepperoni on it, and did not have much tomato sauce and cheese. The crust however was excellent. The medium pizza had everything, but again not much if any tomato sauce and cheese. The crust was fabulous. My daughter, however loved it. Just a matter of taste. read more

Used to love this place and tell everyone about it (see my last review), but sadly no longer. It's just not as good as it used to be, so we've order less and less. Then with my last order I asked for a Greek salad with "a lot of gyro meat" and I got the most pathetic looking salad with almost no gyro meat that I was charged for. When I called to let them know I was disappointed, the owner seemed to have cared less. He told me he put 4 slices of meat on it and charged me .50 a piece. Maybe if the slices were an a quarter inch each. I don't mind paying for what I want, but a greedy owner with little regard for his customers won't be getting my business or my word of mouth. Also, there NY style pizza has been far too thick. if you're looking for thin pizza, go elsewhere. read more

Big Star Pizza - My $9 salad with its four slices of gyro meat and the dressing is mine as the dressing they gave me was entirely oil. - Pizza Near Me - Copley, Ohio

My partner and I have been searching for a place that serves New York style pizza for over 2 years now. And we've finally found Big Star. They've satisfied our 2 year long pizza craving. The crust is thin, and is nice and toasted on the bottom, and "cracks" when folded. Sauce and cheese ratio and flavor are there. Quality ingredients. And the prices are very fair. Large is about 16 inches for $11.50 and $2 for each additional topping. It's definitely a hole in the wall, family owned kind of place that focuses on food rather than being flashy. Will definitely be going back to try other things like calzones, etc. read more

Great pizza great service on the P tonight and I have had New York tile pizza for a long time until I order from big star pizza. This is my first time ordering from them and it was nothing but pleasant I'm a chef and this is a great tasting You can't beat the price for what you get read more

In town for the night, and was in the mood for a Calzone. After looking at several reviews of other places, I decided on Big Star... and I'm glad I did. I didn't want to patronize a national chain, I wanted a small mom 'n' pop shop, and Big Star is what you would expect. Nice couple of guys, Father and Son.... I ordered a warmed cheese slice while I was waiting for my calzone, and I found the dough to be light, yet crispy... easily foldable. The sauce was balanced - not too sweet, not too salty, not too spiced. A good amount of cheese covered... The calzone, Ham and Cheese.... They use old school ovens here (major brownie points), no conveyor belt ovens.... so you get that "pizza oven" taste... he opened the door, and pulled out this golden pillow of mana... just like the pizza, the dough was soft and tender, yet crisp on the outside... brushed with butter, sprinkled with herbs, and sliced into four generous pieces... more than enough sauce was included.... I'd say this is definitely a go-to if you're passing through, they also offer subs, and Mediterranean fare (checked out their menu)... so, I'm sure whatever you try, you'll taste the love... ;-) read more

We just moved into town. We were excited to find a new pizza place -- hoping to order often! Just ordered from Big Star. We have been vegetarians for 20+ years. We order cheese & veggie pizza, salad and the zatar roll (oregano & olive oil). Our delivery guy was super awesome and friendly. However, we received Chicken rolls instead of the veggie zatar roll. We called to let them know and the owner argued with us and insulted us. He said that we definitely ordered the chicken. I don't think so! I haven't ordered chicken in 20 years! We just wanted to let him know. He was so rude. We will never order from there again. read more

This is the best NY style pizza you can get in Ohio, it's the real deal. I've been eating it for 35 years since it was Scotto's in Summit Mall. read more

We just tried Big Star for the first time the other night, and were pleasantly surprised. We went with the New York style, cheese only. The dough was thin and crispy, but still retained a bit of chew to it. It was really good. The bread sticks we ordered appeared to be cut up pizza crust, so they were crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle too. Would recommend to anyone in the Copley area looking to get pizza read more

We always try to grab a New York style pizza whenever we are in a different town and this pizza was great!! Definitely worth grabbing a pie!

Delicious! Lunch special is a great deal, two slices and a pop for under five bucks and the pizza is great. I had the cheese and it was very basic but super tasty. No special cheese or ingredients, so I was pleasantly surprised, at the twabut I'd definitely make a repeat visit if I was in this area. Friendly staff tops off a good experience. read more

Amazing pizza! Best I've had since moving to Ohio (and I've been to quite a few places). The owners are amazing and the portions are huge. I ordered a large pizza and was full after two slices from how big it was. My husband got a Calzone and it was to die for. Cannot say enough good things about this place! read more

First time - ordered a large NY Style pie and two pasta dishes. The pasts was pretty good, but nothing special. Breadsticks were rock hard and tasteless. Pizza was like cardboard...overdone and tasteless - worse than Dominos. Toppings were as thin as the pizza. No return trip for me. read more

I have been ordering from Big Star for several years. I love the pizza and have had salads, spaghetti with meatballs and love their chocolate cake! Great family too read more

Best pizza in Copley. Classic thin New York style. They also have excellent Sicilian style. Cheap prices. Family owned. Clean. Great lunch special. Used to be known as Scotto's pizza in summit mall. read more

My husband and I usually order Gioninos, but tonight we decided to order Big Star after seeing the positive reviews and wanting to try something new...it was just ok. My husband got a NY style pizza, while I tried the Chicago style, we also got some stuffed shells, breadsticks. The NY style pizza wasn't bad, I would give it a 3/5. The Chicago style however wasn't all that great, the crust tasted stale almost, I would give that a 2/5. The stuffed shells were actually pretty good, I would order them again, you get 3 in an order. The breadsticks were pretty bland and again, tasted stale. All in all, I don't think we'll be back. read more

If you like New York style pizza, this is the place to go. Awesome pizza and great people.
