Star Tavern

The Star Tavern has been a traditional family favorite for delicious, thin crust pizza served hot and lively in an atmosphere humming with 65 years of neighborhood character. Owned and operated by the Vayianos family since 1980, Star Tavern is now run by Gary Vayianos, a former attorney, who will tell you that it isnt the result of any secret ingredient that makes what the New York Times calls superior pizza. Star Taverns fame and good fortune is as much a result of the generations of families who go there as it is the consistently good & inexpensive food you get there… time after time, after time. The Star, as it is affectionately called, sits in the far northern end of Orange, a wisp away from Glen Ridge, Montclair, and West Orange. Star Taverns clamorous kitchen, in full view to the customer and always active with hand signals, voices and swirling ingredients, is open until 11 PM Tuesday through Saturday and 10 PM on Monday & Sunday for table, booth and take-out service.
