“Visiting from Southern California. When we entered the pizza store around 10:30 p.m., the staff greeted us warmly. The place was clean, and they were happy to serve us. My daughters said the pepperoni pizza was the best pizza they’ve ever had. They absolutely loved it.”

OH MY WORD. The artichoke pizza is AMAZING! The slices are humongous. The dough is exceptional.

I had the opportunity to visit Artichoke Basille’s Pizza after a work assignment and I have to say I am impressed with the pizza, service and store.
First off the pizza is made in from of you so you’re bound to get the freshest pizza when you order. On top of that if you order a slice, you’re getting your money’s worth. The slice I ordered was took up two whole plates and sold for a reasonable price. Second the customer service is quick, easy, and friendly. You walk up order your pizza and off you go. And finally the store. I really liked how it had both of its doors open and you could walk up and order.
Honestly, if I find myself in Berkeley I’ll definitely go to Artichoke Basille’s Pizza for a quick bite or even a whole box.

I believe this shop is originally from the East Coast. The shop opens late, has outdoor tables and on a balmy night, a great place to hang out. The slices are large and a single slice may be enough for many. The signature cheese artichoke pizza was creamy, gooey, drippy, delicious but a little “extra” and a tad salty for me. Old folks like me have to watch our salt intake. The pizza dough was rustically nice.

I don’t know why but the Hispanic guy in his 40s that’s always there serving people seems to give me a hard time every time. I noticed he told the girl behind me to have a good night, but for me only thanked me after I said it first, and did not charge her for a box when she asked; I on the other hand had to pay like $0.70 for the to-go box. I came in really nice and even tried to make conversation when there was nobody as it was a slow night. I did not forget he had the same demeanor towards me last I came years ago.

It’s my first time to have artichoke pizza. It is really good. The shop seems running for quite sometime because of the smoke stained tiled ceiling and classic posters on their wall. Aside from their famous artichoke pizza, they also have other pizza choices. After ordering, they will reheat your pizza in an artisan oven. I guess this is the reason why their pizza has a unique crunch. They do not have a chair or table in the shop but you can enjoy the pizza while standing inside or in the side walk. This is nice way to experience the street in Berkeley. 7 usd for a large delicious pizza is a good deal. I will visit this again in the near future.

I know I’m supposed to get the artichoke slice, but the vodka sauce was calling my name. It’s okay, definitely indulgent and saucy – I can just imagine how hard it would hit after a night out. The pizza crust is exceptional mid but it is the perfect vessel for the amount of sauce on top. Very large slice but still overpriced imo

I tried both the artichoke pizza and the pepperoni and the artichoke is the better one by far. If you want a great slice of pepperoni head over to Blondie’s. But the artichoke takes the cake here. Slices are massive. I’m not sure if you can even order a whole pizza. Everyone was ordering multiple slices. There’s some counter space outside where you can stand up and quickly eat your pizza. Definitely worth a try and worth coming back to.

Drove here from Sunnyvale to get Artichoke Pizza. I guess it’s worth it. It’s so creamy and perfectly baked. While waiting ordered 4 cheese margarita pizza too and it was really good !!
It’s a very big slice. So if u if you’re considering that u can have 2 slices, Have a look at it and then order. Parking is hard to find though

Came across while in Berkeley. I was kinda hesitant to get pizza here. It didn’t look very appetizing but I was getting hangry lol. I decided to get the artichoke slice….. and I’m so glad I did!! It was a huge slice of yumminess. The cream sauce was thick and very creamy. The crust was just ok. Usually that’s my favorite part. My boyfriend had the meatball pharm slice which must’ve been good too because he ate the whole in less than 5 mins. He did say the crust was too crispy, almost like a cracker. I did get a bite of my daughters vodka Sicilian which really did taste like lasagna.
I wish they had more pizza options available by the slice. Maybe it was just timing. But I’d probably stop by again if I’m in the area to see what they have available:)
