Rose Pizzeria: Discover Berkeley’s Trendy Pizza Destination

Had a fantastic pepperoni and jalepeno pizza. Top notch! Made a reservation prior as there isn’t much seating. This is a must try! We also liked the spicy ceaser salad and fancy anchovies.

Tried the old faithful pizza, wonderful spicy pepper and sausage. It didn’t need the hot honey on the side at all. It was perfect size for two people. Had the spicy Cesar salad, and it was really great, good textures, sauce and parm. Would recommend this as a starter if you like a salad. Had the olive oil cake and it was good, but found the strawberry preserves to be too sweet for my preference. Excited to come back and try other pies!

This place is praised as one of the best pizza places in the US. While I think pizza is reasonably praiseworthy, I am actually impressed by the service accommodation and the appetizer. The burrata cheese with cherries and herb salad is bright and refreshing. The pizza is on the lighter side so you can enjoy it quite well. Most importantly, the staffs are friendly and flexible enough for us to celebrate our family occasion beyond the table's capacity. I feel that the part of hospitality I appreciate. Oh the tiramisu is legit and of course large enough to share for 2 or even more!

Stopped at this great little pizzeria on my way from SFO to Napa with my wife. It was a Friday night and definitely was one of the spots to be in town because there was a line for tables and for takeout. But it was definitely worth the weight. The pizza was really good small kind of 14 inch size pies. We got the margarita which was really good and the Caesar salad was also good. We would definitely recommend for a casual pizza and salad dinner in Berkeley.

Our pizza aficionado friend had told us about this place. It delivers! Ambiance: The outdoor seating in the back is chill and a great place to hang out and enjoy. Food: We ordered a red sauce pizza and a white sauce pizza. Honestly I normally prefer white sauce but the red sauce at Rose is next level tasty. The crust was superb and the pizza was great with their house red wine. Service: friendly and attentive Price: Bay Area fair price for the best pizza around I’d be happy to go back

If you’re just looking for a reliably good pizza place, this spot definitely delivers. They’ve got a really nice dough, tasty cheese, and a sauce that pulls everything together into a pretty satisfying personal pizza. They also have some nice drink options and a good range of wines if that’s your thing. Overall, it’s just a really nice place to grab a good pizza.

Highlight: Delicious vegan-friendly pizza in a spotless space with a patio you’ll want to linger on. Restaurant: This cozy Berkeley pizza spot takes pride in crafting high-quality pies with fresh ingredients and thoughtful flavor combinations. The atmosphere is relaxed yet well-kept, and the charming patio is the kind of space that makes you want to extend your meal just to soak it all in. Service: Service here is warm, welcoming, and attentive without feeling rushed. Staff members know their menu well and seem genuinely happy to guide you toward great choices. The care they put into the dining experience is evident from start to finish. Food: We enjoyed a vegan pizza topped with sausage and peppers, and it was packed with flavor—savory, well-balanced, and cooked to perfection. The vegan Caesar salad was another standout, with a creamy, flavorful dressing that didn’t feel like a compromise. Every bite spoke to the attention paid to quality and freshness. Recommendations: Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, or just a pizza lover, this is a must-visit. Grab a spot on the patio if the weather’s nice, and don’t skip the vegan Caesar—it’s a pleasant surprise. The spotless dining area and even cleaner bathroom say a lot about how much the team cares. Highly recommend for anyone seeking top-notch pizza in Berkeley.

Best pizza place in the east bay, I would wager. The she wolf is a culinary masterpiece. The spicy Caesar is a must as well. The place is small, but has lots of character. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. My only change would be to add a few more drinks on their menu. A few more cocktail and beer options would be welcomed
