Absolutely incredibly good. Pizza taste better than it looks and it looks phenomenal. Philly cheesesteak is amazing too. Owner seemed super chill and friendly, highly highly recommend.

Baklava to go
Lisa C.

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.

Sicilian Style Cheese (Medium) Pizza
Le T.

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.

New York Style (Medium) Pizza, Sicilian Style (Medium) Pizza
Jack P.

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.

Pathetic gyro
Brian L.

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.

My $9 salad with its four slices of gyro meat and the dressing is mine as the dressing they gave me was entirely oil.

Price seemed in-line with other places, staff was particularly nice. People mentioned MAGA stuff (huge RED flag for me) and I DID see a Trump/Vance sticker (wtf?) but I also saw a Biden/Harris sticker. So if you are reading this Ms. Primo...how about: no stickers? I don't want to ruin my appetite thinking about Trump. That being said, the sandwich was the best sandwich I have eaten in Ohio. I will return and get some weird thing when I go back. Building was old a full of knick-knacks. They seemed to sell retail beer, but the selection wasn't amazing but they had some interesting stuff.

We hadn't been here before, but she has been waiting 25 years to come here. She has lived in Akron for all her life, and Kenmore for 10 of those. The bread was soggy, the ingredients were not quality whatsoever, it even looks like they cooked the sandwich with the lettuce on it. The pickles, the only thing free with this expensive meal, were soggy. We paid $41 for this meal for just utter disappointment. Not only that, but these are MAGA Trumpers, displayed everywhere, which is embarrassing in a town with such diversity as Kenmore has. Most of your customers are black, so this is just insulting.

My daughter recently discovered she had a wheat allergy, so we searched for sub places that had…read moregluten free bread. Even though our search indicated Firehouse had that option, we discovered they didn't. However, they did provide her "sandwich" on lettuce (I expected a wrap, she was delighted with it being salad). Everyone there was wonderfully friendly, they even fixed my sandwich (made with whole wheat rather than white) almost immediately. The BEST part for me was the size of the small sandwich. I'm in my fifties - thus, cannot each as much as I used to, and this was the perfect amount! My only negatives? The music was awful, and I wish they could have provided a knife for my daughter to help cut the sandwich meat. She loved it (practically licked the bowl), the food was fresh and delicious, and we will definitely be back!

I normally like this chain, but tonight was maybe not their night. We showed up at 8:40 pm and…read morewhen we placed our order, they said it would have to be a to go order as they were closing in 20 minutes. We figured we would have time to eat, but they took so long to make our sandwiches that we had to sit in the car and eat because they were closing in 5 minutes. I had the Italian, and it was put together so sloppy that it was really hard to eat as everything was falling out. It also had a different sweet dressing than I remembered from other visits. Not my favorite trip.

I am still in shock this place will straight up deliver ONE single sandwich to your door and do it…read moreunder 10-15 mins. How could you not like that! They do tote on being "freaky fast", then again it is likely because most of the drivers are pushing the "NOS" button on their steering wheel. Don't worry, you'll get it when Brian O'Conner comes screaming around the corner with your sandwich in under 15 minutes.... Hey I'm for it, got my sammy here super quick! You can hear the exhaust, blow off valve, and see the wing miles away... it like a personal alarm "your sandwich is around the corner sir" The sandwiches are good, they have a pretty good selection of items. You can customize your orders, do group orders, and all of this via their website. I usually get this when in a pinch, I.E cannot escape the clutches of work and need food to refuel the geek session I am partaking in. So when that comes to play, typically a group order is launched off, everyone pays their own, and it is sent over. But even if I need one single sandwich, they will still deliver. Visiting the shop is no different, the sandwich is made before you finish telling them your complete order, I Kid you not. These people whip out sandwiches like Jesse Pinkman and Walter White cook up the blue stuff! Talking efficient and having you coming back for more. Overall, not a bad spot at all. If you need a quick sandwich delivered in quarter mile times, Or even if you just need to stop in and get a quick bite, Jimmy John's is certainly going to serve one up for you.

Very efficient staff. I ordered my drink and sandwich and a few moments later my food was ready…read more Barely had time to finish filling my drink cup and presto....had my food. Appreciated the efficiency because I had more time to enjoy my lunch break. The iced tea is really good here too it's fresh brewed, and both sweet and unsweet are available. My food was fresh; crispy lettuce...the way I like it. Was able to not have the mayo on the sandwich so yes, you can customize your order. Need a super fast lunch? Eat here!
