"Gather is the type of place that’s mocked on Portlandia: everything is from a local farm (and they make sure you know it), they use a lot of recycled materials, and the building is, according to them, the greenest in Berkeley. All that might make you expect some sort of bland health food, but that’s not what’s going on here at all. The main attraction is actually the pizza, which is more like flatbread topped with fresh vegetables and meats. The space is bright and welcoming, and has an upscale but unpretentious feel. Come for dinner with your parents. RESERVE A TABLE WITH RESERVE A TABLE" - Amy Clark
"Gather has a more upscale feel, so maybe come here on a double date before a show. The pizzas are more like flatbreads with vegetable and meat toppings, but they’re really good. They also have a solid by-the-glass wine list." - will kamensky
"It’s no surprise that Berkeley’s most sustainably designed restaurant also focuses heavily on sourcing from reputable farmers and ranchers, butchering whole animals, and providing plenty of vegan options. The thin, crispy pizzas are always a good option." - Janelle Bitker
"I noted that Gather was among 15 Berkeley restaurants and businesses that signed a letter at the city council meeting supporting the new ordinance requiring compostable disposable packaging and reusable wares for dine-in customers." - Janelle Bitker
"Gather is offering a deal for New Year’s Eve: chef Anthony Lee’s usual a la carte menu with 25 percent off all bottles of sparkling wine and Champagne." - Janelle Bitker
