I was originally recommended Artichoke Basille's after a concert in Berkeley, but the massive line…read morescared me off. I finally made it back on a Saturday afternoon, and luckily, there was barely a wait! I ordered their famous Artichoke Pizza, and it definitely lives up to the hype. It's rich, flavorful, and they heat your slice back up right before serving, so it comes out piping hot. The only minor downside is that it's a bit oily (I had to use a few napkins to pat it down) but the flavor makes up for it. The setup is a quick grab-and-go counter service with some patio seating and standing tables outside. Since it's right on the corner of a main street, you're looking at street parking only, which I imagine can get pretty tough when the area is busy.

The hope definitely speaks for itself. I would definitely come back here again. The artichoke pizza…read moreis really amazing and if I can give it out 100 out of 100 I would. The vodka pizza was OK. I definitely like the artichoke pizza more. The service here is super friendly as well. The staff is here, but they wouldn't give me the secret sauce for the pizza I do live in the city, but I would definitely hope they bring one here to San Francisco soon The ambience is taken go where they warm up the pizza for you which takes about 2 to 5 minutes they said the large artichoke cow pizza is about $64 but one slice got me very full

Nostalgia much? I grew up with Blondie's Pizza. I have loved…read morethis place since I was a teenager & I love it even more now. For more than one reason. For one it brings back so many good memories, Blondie's always makes me happy. The second reason is they now have 100% BEEF PEPERONI! You heard me, 100% BEEF PEPPERONI! For some people that's not a big deal. For someone who hasn't eaten pork their whole life & always has to avoid getting pepperoni on their pizza, its a HUGE freaking deal. I love, love, love when the rare occasion happens that I get to enjoy BEEF PEPPERONI on my pizza. OK besides that, the pizza is amazing. I was literally closing my eyes and in my happy place the whole time. Now for those that never had BEEF PEPPERONI, please go try it. It is so much higher quality than pork pepperoni, so I've been told. I plan to make many more trips in the near future, thats how excited it made me. By the way I loved the cheese just as much, yum yummy. Pro tip: parking is hard, obviously, downtown Berkeley and all. So either walk, Uber, find parking, take the bus, or do as I do and tag team it and drop off a friend to go order for the whole car and drive around until they are ready to be picked up. Do what you have to, just get there. Now go enjoy yourself, you can thank me later.

No shade to Gypsy's I'm absolutely sure that their pizza is super delish'. But yeah in closing Seniore's pizza is very filling and flavorful i recommend this to anyone looking for a good slice under 10! Super perfect for midnight gardeners. PLURR to the reader

2023/04/30 17:00…read more genuinely well-made Neapolitan pizza that you can get with flex dollars (UC Berkeley currency) - located in / next to Crossroads - it can take up to 40 minutes since they make it to order - pizzas are one-size and cut into 12 pieces Potato, Pancetta, Baby Kale & Garlic ($18.00) - also has rosemary, a great addition - some of the pancetta got crispy, which was delicious - fairly greasy - crust was crispy and fluffy - potatoes were well-cooked but could do with more seasoning - I didn't see or taste any baby kale - garlic around the edge was very flavorful CHEESE ($12.00): - heavy on the cheese, which solidified together and separated from the crust - crust was crispy and fluffy

Hi everyone, My…read morename is Sara. (I'm not a local). Not being so I decided to check this place out for a fun exotic treat. So me and my son door dashed food from here and once "delivered" it was... not there. So basically someone stole it. Yikes. Me and girlfriend head over there to figure out why we didn't get the food. Mind you I guess this was during final season so people steal? Wtf?!? But when we go to this place they ACCUSE ME of stealing the food even after I showed them the order and everything and what not so we had to wait for the next door dasher to literally hand me the food. Two grown men yelling at two young ladies. Totally rude and unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend this place to a lot of people. Ambiance wasn't, food was extremely disappointing, and expensive. Do I look like I grow money from my hair, medusa style!?$ Anyways, don't come here for date night, in all aspects this place disappointed me. Thank you.

My friend and I tried to get into Rose Pizzeria for dinner, but they had too long of a wait, so we…read moreended up here instead, but it wasn't at all a letdown. We were greeted by the friendliest server (a tall guy with curly hair whose name I unfortunately didn't get but shout-out to him) who asked us if we had any questions about the menu. My friend and I had already glanced at the menu when we checked in with the host, so we pretty much knew what we wanted. I did ask our server about crust options though and ended up going with the New York style because I didn't have the stomach capacity for the slightly thicker options like Detroit but perhaps next time with a bigger group! We ordered The Standard, which seemed like a good choice because of the diverse, balanced toppings, and the chicories & beets salad. The salad arrived quickly, and the pizza was brought to our table soon after. I liked how refreshing and crisp the salad was, but the pizza was really what I wanted. It was everything I wanted in a pizza - definitely the best choice of the lineup imo. The crust was so soft and pillowy I couldn't resist devouring it all and leaving no trace. I'm very much a crust gal. Glad the plan to hit up Rose Pizzeria didn't work out so that we could discover this gem. With the various styles of pizza options available, there's sure to be something from the menu for everyone here!

We tried a Sicilian style pizza that was super delicious - the crust was thick and fluffy and aromatic, with a perfectly light crunchy bite - no soggy bottoms here, folks! It almost doesn't matter which flavor, but we had the Ray J which was a delightful blend of sweet and savory. In contrast, we also tried a seasonal vegan pizza prepared in the thinner-than-Sicilian Grandma style - this was also delicious and the crust was satisfyingly crunchy. We appreciated the quality ingredients and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The arancini balls were pretty good but the stars were the pizzas. Service was efficient, helpful, and friendly - Laura herself was on hand to make recommendations and answer all our questions. The space had a nice vibe and was clean and comfortable. Parking wasn't too bad - found a spot two blocks away. Will return to try more pizzas, as well as a pasta dish. If you're ever in the area, I do recommend that you check it out. This pizzeria has been around for 3 years and we want it to stick around for a long long time.

This used to be my favorite pizza spot. I recommended it to friends and family because every meal…read morefelt worth the trip. Unfortunately, my recent visit was a disappointment. The biggest issue was that the food no longer seemed to have the same level of care and quality. The spicy Caesar, which I had enjoyed in the past, was surprisingly flavorless. The mushroom pizza was decent, but it was overly charred and lacked the balance and attention to detail that once made it stand out. It wasn't bad--it just wasn't exceptional, especially for the price. What made the experience more frustrating is that the prices haven't reflected this decline in quality. Even my spritz felt skimpy, with the glass mostly filled with ice. The service didn't help. To be fair, the staff have never been particularly warm or attentive, even during the years when I loved the food, so that wasn't new. The difference is that when the food was outstanding, it was easy to overlook the indifferent service. Now that the quality seems to have slipped, it stands out much more. Nine months ago, I would have enthusiastically given this place five stars. Now it feels like corners are being cut while the pricing remains the same. I hope this was an off night, but based on this visit, it's no longer the restaurant I used to rave about and will no longer recommend.

They were rolling out a brand new…read morecomputer system that day, so ordering took longer than expected and the staff seemed a bit lost with it. We didn't mind waiting -- new systems take time to learn. What bothered me more was the execution. We ordered identical meals -- same pasta, same salad, and a margherita pizza to share. When the food came out, my friend's pasta had mushrooms while mine didn't. After trying his, mine tasted completely bland. Then the pizza arrived and it wasn't margherita -- just plain cheese pizza that didn't taste very good. It was a slow time of day with only a few tables, so it wasn't a chaotic rush. I didn't want to hold up our plans by sending things back, but the mistakes stayed with me. The pasta had potential, and I'd still give them another chance, but they really need to focus on listening to the customer and getting the orders right.
