Best pizza in Groton. The salads are so big I get multiple meals out of 1 order. Everything is so fresh and yummy. The meatballs are good, perfect texture, not hard and dry. The homemade brownies are excellent, fudge with chocolate chips. read more

Why do I like their personal size old plain cheese pizza so much? Like coming in here for some quick pizza, usually take it to go so normally don't get to dine in, not very attracted by the restaurant but pizza is always great. read more

The food here is delicious with the porrions are good size. The staff are very friendly.

Ordered over the phone made business aware of food allergy we then found nut inside the container labeled as no nuts after having to bring child to ER for an allergic reaction. When i called to address the issue with business i didn't ask for any compensation or anything merely to express the severity of such a mistake and to make them aware I was met with being told I shouldn't even order from there if its so serious and being hung up on. Absolutely appalled at the lack of concern or any reasonable rational response. read more

Gold Star Pizza - Harvest chicken salad meant to be with no nuts. - Pizza Near Me - Groton, Connecticut

I've heard so many good things about this place. I finally got around to trying it. I ordered a large buffalo chicken pizza, large harvest salad, and fries. I was given an estimate of 20 minutes. Upon showing up to pickup they got the order wrong, hearing antipasto salad instead of fries on the phone. The correct order was ready in 33 minutes. Understandable. Mistakes happen. When placing the order they asked which dipping sauce for the pizza. I asked for blue cheese. When I got home I realized they forgot the dipping sauce for the pizza and the dressing for the harvest salad. Overall the food was great, really good fries, the pizza was amazing and the salad was one of the best I've had in the area. This place would be a 5 but due to the mixup and missing dressings I have to give it a 4. read more

Gold Star Pizza - Harvest Chicken Salad - Pizza Near Me - Groton, Connecticut

An 'ok' pizza. Cooked well but average cheese and sauce. Crust is decent. That said, $5 for a small cheese is a good deal and worth it if you're in the area. Could do better or worse though if you're looking for a go-to spot. read more

Amazing food, service, and the small town family owned restaurant vibe. Been going here for years.

Literally the best fish and chips in CT. Portions are amazing, and extremely inexpensive considering how much food you get and the quality. The staff is always amazing and quick! Definitely going back!! read more

While visiting Mystic, CT my family and I stopped in for lunch. We were greeted by friendly staff who took our order. Having been in food service myself for many years, I watch for proper Serve Safe trained ways and the cleanliness of the establishment when dining out. The restaurant was clean and well-kept. We ordered a Crispy Chicken Wrap a Mediterranean Wrap and Turkey Bacon Grinder, in short amount of time our lunch arrived. The first words that came to my mind were WOW! Our plates were overflowing the enormous wraps and grinder were skillfully prepared to perfection and presented nicely by one of their dedicated staff of eight years, the meal was absolutely delicious. The wraps were served with homemade thin sliced onion rings that came with Gold Star's special sauce, amazing! We enjoyed our meal chatted with the server who was attentive to our needs, we left with take home boxes. We will look forward to our next visit to the area and enjoy another wonderful meal. Well done, Gold Star Pizzeria!!! read more

I got a chicken cutlet sub and my wife a steak and cheese let me tell you it was so good omg I hope they don't switch owners or sell cause when we come back next year that's my first stop read more

Terrible service. Ordered a pizza with no cheese. Got one with cheese. The lady that smelled said she would make another, waited half hour to get a pizza im pretty sure was spit on. 20$ to go hungry. Fuck this place. read more

Great pizza! Super friendly staff very clean delicious food and very homey environment would recommend to everyone read more

5 stars all day long. These folks know how to make great food! Called in a big order for 15 people and in 30 minutes all ready to go, every item labeled with names, all perfectly made. These folks don't miss a beat. EXCELLENCE!! read more

I have lived less than a couple miles away from this place for 3 years and never tried it. It's easy to miss. Crammed in a cruddy strip mall along Gold Star Hwy, a liquor store and laundromat next door. The decor is non existent, a little run down, but clean. The point is: ignore all of this. It's not what's important. Here is what is important to know about this place: They are super nice and friendly, the food is simple but awesome, and the portions are huge and the prices more than reasonable. One of my guilty pleasures is fried seafood. I ordered clam strips dinner and a friend ordered calamari. Ordering fried food in a place like this, you don't set expectations too high. But I was amazed. We were brought these heaping plates of seafood, fries, and these great lightly battered onion ring strings. None of it was overly greasy, it was some of the cleanest (IE. fresh fryer oil) fried food I have ever tasted. Really great. And the portion was too much for even me, I got a box and took some home. Since that trip I have also ordered delivery a couple of times. Their grinders are great! Get a toasted steakworks, it's what fat kids dream of! Overall, this place is a sort of diamond in the rough. Food is simple, but they take pride in it. They are friendly and the prices are good. Overlook the location and appearance and give them a try. read more

I'm really not sure how I haven't rated this place yet, as I've been coming here since I was a kid. There's a reason I've continued to come here as an adult and bring my family here. I don't care what anyone says, this place has the best grinders in the Groton/Ledyard area. My favorites are the tuna and the meatball, though I almost always get the tuna. For me, the bread is a big thing that can turn a sandwich from okay into great, and I just love the bread here. The pizza is also great, but when I come here, it's for the grinders. We moved up into the Killingly area and when I visit my father in law down here I always come and pick up a sandwich. It's very well stuffed too - you get tuna/cheese/lettuce/tomato in every bite; I never bite in and get just bread. The family who run this place are very friendly people. They're still doing curbside pick up during the shut down, so make sure to go down and pick up a sandwich! read more

My new favorite pizza place! Sometimes the waits a little long but they really do have good pizza so I don't mind as it's busy! That's a good thing! Always nice people too. read more

The staff was very attentive and polite . The pizza smelled amazing as I walked in the door and prompted me to immediately get one. I got the 10 inch meatball pizza (she cut fresh meatballs right in front of me ). The grinders look pretty yummy also . Prices are fair 9.00 for a one topping pizza. They offer a variety of choices . Hershey miniatures next to the register eased the pain of smelling the food as I waited on a nice bench inside patiently :) read more

First of all, the staff is not only friendly .. but they're happy! Something I don't often see, but thoroughly enjoy! The food is very good. I have had burgers, salad, pizza, and chicken from here, and have never been disappointed. Fresh food, made to order, and extremely generous portions. read more

Absolutely love this place pizza it' brings me back to my childhood in the city !!! I love itttt

Food is great! Big salads and great pizza! I am giving them 3 stars because they charge a $6 delivery charge no matter what. We were staying in a hotel right up the road and they still charged a $6 fee. Absolutely ridiculous. I feel bad for their drivers because they won't get tipped as well. read more

Sorry, but like someone said it's like frozen pizza with no taste but a lot of cheese that doesn't make a pizza, less cheese more flavor, and I'm sorry we're from Long Island and we know Pizza but good service, happy people. read more

Wanted to support a local business during the COVID closure and found these guys were doing curbside take out. Buffalo chicken wrap platter was generously portioned and tasty. 2 large calzones were enough for multiple meals. Plenty of fillings and cooked to perfection! Thanks for an excellent dinner ! And the owner was quite friendly and appreciated the support during such a slow time. read more

Everything was delicious: pizza, wings, mozzarella sticks... The Fish and Chips was definitely fresh fish and the portions were large. The service was excellent. Our waitress, Tess, was so nice and helpful. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area. Only 2 miles from the Navy Lodge. We took our order to go but the place looked very clean. So glad we stumbled upon this restaurant. Thank you! read more

They gave great pizza- My husband loves it. My daughter and I love the gyro platter comes with fries and onion rings! (If you like lettuce on you gyro just ask- they serve them authentic without lettuce) I can not say enough about the thin crispy tasty onion rings. No where else around serves them. There are at least 3 other pizza places on my way to Gold Star but I pass them all and head straight to Gold Star. Service is friendly and clearly family owned and run. It's worth the trip. I enjoy the casual atmosphere definitely at place you can stop and relax after a long day of hard weekend yard work- or office work. You won't be sorry you found this gem. Tucked in the tiny strip mall on 184 next to the gas station and nail salon. read more

Frozen pizza quality, cooked and served on a cardboard disk. Everything about this pizza--crust, sauce, cheese and meat--was bland and disappointing. I definitely won't be back. read more

Earlier today, I ordered the gyro meal which comes with a side of fries with a special sauce and ketchup. I was really impressed by the flavor of the gyro as well as the fries. I was also very happy with the women who've helped me take my order, she was indeed very kind. I will say though, my gyro had too much onions and tomatoes, but I was happy with my meal regardless of that. You've got to check out this family business, they actually have pretty good food, would definitely recommend and will be coming back soon for a second bite in the near future. read more

First time ever eating here. I was very pleased with the portions and the food was very good. Service Was excellent as well

The pizza here has the best cheese, it's always perfectly melted on. Friendly staff and never a long wait time whether dining in or picking up. Doesn't look like much from the outside but it will have you coming back. read more

It was okay. My pie lacked flavor, very bland . My boyfriends pie was great according to him. So it can be a hit or miss. The staff was very kind and friendly. read more

Best pizza and chicken wings in town, IMO. Delicious food & great staff! They gave the kids a free rice pudding when we went to pick up our order, even though they were all over the place and couldn't sit still. Very nice! read more

This spot is hands down the best pizza place in Groton! The pizza was delicious, the grinders were so tasty and fresh. My son loved his chicken tenders and french fries/ onion straw mix.

Ordered a bbq chicken pizza for delivery. It was delivered about 30 minutes later. The chicken on the pizza was awesome. I've never had a bbq chicken pizza with chicken like that. The bbq sauce was also good but the crust was only soso. Prices aren't bad for the portion size. read more

Moved here about 4 years ago and tried, their pizza is Greek style which is very good, but if you want a good sandwich check out the roast beef club!!! Awesome, and if you order the platter w/fries and rings you won't finish it = lunch tomorrow as well. Also their salads are amazing and barely fit in the box. Only reason it's not a five is I just reserve that for extremely great restaurants... read more

So much more than your average pizza place. Best fish and chips and seafood platter on the east coast. Eggplant parmesan grinders are phenomenal. Very friendly waitsaff and cook. Highly recommend Gold Star Pizza for a family meal. Eben read more

absolute worst. Wife just came home with two meatball grinders that where so soggy and grease filled it went right into the trash, could not even pick them up out of the clam shell they where in, lived in Groton for over 50 years and never ate here this was all the proof I needed to never eat here again read more
