Been coming here because of my husband for almost 10+ years and it the best Italian food. Very…read moreflavorful, hand-made pasta, the staff are really attentive and nice, and I just love the Italian small restaurant feel to this place. It makes me feel like I stepped into Italy. My favorite is the gnocchi pesto and my hubby always gets the steak. When we have family visit, they get the broiled salmon. All amazing. We've had their pizza numerous times and yes it's a heavier crust but it's still pretty thin and very delicious. Plus I'm a sucker for bread so honestly the pizza crust is delicious. I've been to other "popular Yelp" Italian restaurants and they're filled with oil, grease, and "fluff". This family owned restaurant always uses fresh ingredients and hand-made pasta and you can't beat that (big portions too and their bread is to die for).

The portions were pretty small and the sauces were fine. The pasta itself was great though and tasted fresh! The gelato was amazing, I highly recommend the tiramisu and matcha!

Huge, hearty calzone with bold Italian comfort food vibes…read more Had the Godfather calzone at Gypsy's Trattoria Italiana in Berkeley and it was a satisfying, filling meal. 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.

Food isn't very high quality but it's close to the bars so its price for quantity is good value…read more Discount for cash and extremely packed on a Friday night so food takes a while. I got their pesto calzone for $15. Huge, but not very good (I got sick of it after a few bites) and took over 20min for a takeout place. The pesto was oily and a bit bland. Chicken and the thick dough tasted cold and very dry. Ambiance is not nice to sit at, feels like an indoor taco truck. This place probably isn't in my top 5 for the area because its not too good and it takes a long time, but if someone wanted to eat here I wouldn't argue against it.

What makes this response difficult to understand is that you were actually the person who greeted…read moreus and told us we would need to wait another hour. I understand that a new employee may have made a mistake, but once the situation was brought to your attention, there was still no attempt to find a solution. Instead, we were simply told to keep waiting. The problem was never the mistake itself. Mistakes happen in every restaurant. The problem was how it was handled afterward. That's why this response feels more like an explanation than a resolution. If you knew the information we were given was incorrect, I would have expected some effort to make things right rather than simply asking us to wait longer. We were genuinely excited to dine at your restaurant, which is why the experience was so disappointing.

Where the focaccia? My mother, (rest her soul) used to say:…read more"Focaccia is God's scourge on the world". And she was not too fond of Kenny G. She had some strong opinions. However, she would dig this cool spot. What a cozy, lovely, well appointed space this is on College Avenue in Berkeley.

There's nice music playing and the small space has every possible square foot utilized in a nice manner. And, absolutely delicious focaccia! Today I went for the pesto zucchini which is awesome.
