Previously I wouldn't have liked that you only have one pizza flavor to choose from, but they've all been great and with the green sauce, even better! The service is always fast and friendly, though I will say we tend to pop in during odd hours of the day (like mid afternoon) so it's never crowded when we go. The interior is clean enough and pretty spacious. A good place to hang out with friends and enjoy some pizza.

I am going to be honest here, and I am not a fan. I don't usually like pizza, but my standards are…read morehigh. The pizza is THIN and greasy, the flavor is completely overshadowed by the grease, you can't even taste the flavors of the pizza and toppings because of the sheer layer of GREASE on each slice. It is disappointing to say the least. The sauce they give you for their white pizza has random hints of spice but is, for the most part, flavorless. The pizza took a while to be ready (3 pizzas), and every drink option I attempted to order was out of stock. There are many seating options and the space is well decorated, but that cannot make up for the dish they served.

The line does get pretty long on busy nights after big events like concerts, but it tends to move pretty fast. I've tried their Artichoke, Margherita, and Vodka slices which are all solid choices. Each of their slices are huge and great for the price of ~$8! Personally, I find their pizzas to be a bit on the heavier side with their generous amounts of sauce, but great if you're in the mood for some mouth-watering greasy saucy pizza. They operate on a grab n go service, but there are seats and a few standing tables outside. Overall, definitely a pizza spot worth going to when you're in Berkeley!

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.

Pizzeria da Laura in Berkeley is a fantastic spot for Italian food right in the heart of downtown,…read morejust steps from the university. The location gives it a lively downtown vibe with lots of energy from the surrounding area and nearby students. The reservation and check-in process was very smooth. The staff were incredibly courteous, welcoming, and helpful throughout the visit. I actually arrived about 30 minutes earlier than my reservation time, and they were kind enough to seat us early, which was a really nice touch. One thing I really like about this place is that they update their dishes a few times a year, so every visit can feel a little different and exciting. The menu has great variety, especially when it comes to pizza styles as you can choose from New York, Sicilian, Detroit, and Grandma-style pizzas, and the pricing is very straightforward for all the sizes they serve. The pizza was perfectly cooked and tasted great. They also allow you to customize your pizza by adding or removing ingredients, which makes it very convenient for everyone to choose based on their liking. And they add toppings with open-heart. The pasta was also excellent. We ordered the Peperoncino pasta, and it tasted amazing. The garlic flavor and breadcrumbs were really the highlight and brought out the authentic character of the spaghetti. Another big plus is that they have plenty of vegetarian options, making it easy for different dietary preferences. The portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable for what they serve. Food arrived quickly, and the service from the servers and staff was great throughout the visit. The restaurant also has plenty of space and handles reservations well. The atmosphere is lively with lots of people around and students from the nearby university, which adds to the downtown Berkeley energy. A little more upbeat music could add even more charm to the place. Overall, this is a place I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Berkeley. It's the kind of restaurant I'd happily come back to again and again.

As someone from Brooklyn that has eaten pizza her whole life, I'm very critical about it. I can say…read moreRose Pizzeria makes fantastic pizza. Their marinara sauce is perfectly sweet & not too acidic, perfect amount of cheese, and the taste of the dough in the pizza, plus the char on the crust was incredible- truly no notes for the Margherita pie. The Champione pie was a white pizza with mushrooms and charred leeks, this was sort of a 3.9/5 for me, and this is my personal opinion. Mushrooms and leeks are a good flavor combo, but I think it works better on pasta than as a pizza topping. Plentiful mushrooms in each bite, but I felt like they were competing with each other instead of complimenting each others. This review was for a takeout order (ordered in person, took 30 mins) and I can't wait to dine in person!

Interior, that might need some touch up.

The calzone was massive and packed with layers of cheese, meats, and sauce. The crust was golden, slightly crisp on the outside, and soft and doughy inside, holding everything together really well. Every bite was rich, savory, and indulgent in the best way. Portion size is generous, something you can share or save for later. It's one of those comfort food meals that really hits when you're craving something heavy and flavorful. Service was quick and straightforward, and the food came out faster than expected even with a steady crowd. The vibe is casual, student-friendly, and lively, with a laid-back Italian comfort food feel that makes it great for a quick bite or group meal. Overall, a solid spot for big portions and classic Italian-American comfort food. I'd definitely come back to try more pasta and baked dishes.
