Sliver Pizzeria

My friend was always trying to get me to eat here and I was always like "Hell no! I ain't eatin' no vegetarian pizza! I want my pepperoni!" (Let's face it. Pepperoni IS life.)Eventually, she just bought me a slice and it was over. I eat here like at least twice a week. No meat, no problem. These are the best slices I've ever had and I lived in NYC. The menu is always super creative. Right now I'm chowing down on a wild mushroom pizza. It's fire. But it isn't as good as the potato and corn pizza from Wednesday. If you told me a year ago I'd be going back for seconds of a potato corn pizza... On top of the pizza being amazing, they're also the nicest people I've ever met. My first time there by myself I realized I forgot my wallet and she just gave me a slice anyway. I went back and paid, but she didn't know me. She didn't know I would. You always have to wait because they don't do that heat lamp shiz. They heat it up fresh for you. It's so goooood. The place is super cute, too. Lots of nice wood. The TV is on, but with almost no volume so you don't have to deal with the noise of it. Some cute couches to lounge on. All in all, I love this place. Madly.

TLDR:Yummy Veggie Pizzas by the Slice or Whole, Friendly Service, Spacious interior, casual vibe. Find it on Downtown Shattuck Ave just a couple doors down from the main entry to the Berkeley BART station. Carnivores need not wince.. this is good stuff, speaking as a fellow carnivore! Vegan friendly if that's your thing..B a c k s t o r y :Being a college town, Berkeley is no stranger to Pizza, with nearly every variety represented here across the many pizza joints scattered through town. Yet, as an enclave for "healthy" eating, Berkeley seems to have its own take on vegetarian pizzas, which started out at The Cheese Board further up Shattuck Avenue in the "Gourmet Ghetto", but has since expanded to "Sliver Pizzeria" - an entirely new local chain of pizza places started by alumni from the Cheese Board.The P I Z Z A : At Sliver, there is a different Pizza-of-the-Day every day, Veggie, of course. Though the toppings may seem sometimes a bit unconventional often with Yukon Potatoes, Corn, a hint of lime usually over Mozzerella, the result is tasty and amazing on the tongue. The crust is thin, like a NY style and what's cool and why they call this place "Sliver" is that you get a bonus sliver of pizza to go with your normal-sized slice. At the condiments bar, they also have a zesty green sauce and limes to go on the side with your pizza.Sliver also has locations on Telegraph, two more locations in Oakland and over in Lafayette too. My go-to is this Sliver here in Berkeley. Count me in as a "regular" =)

TIP: check out their website to see what pizzas they server for the week and plan ahead!The crust, made from rice flour, is chewy and less thick than traditional American pizza crusts, which I loved. The pizza tastes extremely similar to another vegetarian pizza spot I love in Berkeley. The menu changes daily, offering creative vegetarian options that are always fresh and bursting with flavor. The sauce adds a fresh, spicy kick that elevates the entire pizza, highly recommend ordering an entire container of the sauce. If you're a fan of innovative, veggie-forward pizza, Sliver Pizzeria is a must-visit!

This place is reminiscent of the Cheeseboard pizza in North Berkeley but location wise is more conveniently located near Berkeley campus. Similarly they have limited types of flavors each day so it's good to check the menu before showing up if you have certain food preferences. We like to take it to go and have a picnic on campus nearby

We visited on a Wednesday evening, and was glad to find a place that was open late. (We were coming from the airport) Found this place and decided to give it a shot, since it had great reviews. We entered and loved the simplicity of their menu. Choose how many slices you want with their pizza of the day. We decided to get a two slice with their green sauce. Whomever created their green sauce, *chefs kiss*. Their pizza was delicious too. We will definitely be back.

Not crowded on a Saturday noon. A good amount of indoor seating, felt spacious. There's even a couch area. My friend and I each ordered a slice of the pizza of the day, which was the potato pizza. It was ready in less than 10 minutes. It came piping hot and I liked the crunch of the crust. The green sauce was pretty good too! Added lots of flavor to the pizza and I dipped it for every bite.

Finally tried sliver and it was great! They only have one pizza flavor per day and the day I went was Yukon potatoes and corn and it was delightful. The corn was sweet but there wasn't a crazy amount which can over power the pizza and the potatoes were crispy even though it was on top of a pizza and under cheese. Also they had this cilantro pesto sauce which is so delectable to have with the pizza. My favorite part is the tiny sliver of pizza they put on top of every order it's so cute. Service is super fast as the pizza is already made, they just warm it up and pack it in a box before handing it to you. It's a typical fast casual place, you bus your self and order at the front.

Slivers is pretty good! Their green sauce and red sauce really adds another dimension of flavor for the pizzas.

This is a classic at Berkeley, and I'm glad they opened two locations. The unique part about Sliver is how they'll have a pizza of the day that you can only order. My favorite is the ones with corn or potatoes! The pizza is pretty thin, so you need at least 2 slices to be full. There's usually no sauce on the pizza - mainly dough, cheese, and the vegetable toppings, but I still like it. For more flavor, definitely dip it in the green sauce - it adds a salty kick to it!

the worker was sooo nice we came in for dinner and then ordered 2 slices w green sauce and he gave us 4! setting was gorgeous and had a cute piano tysm
