Pizzeria Mercato

If you are in the Emeryville area, Mercato Pizzeria at the Market Place is an absolute must-visit! From start to finish, this place delivers an unforgettable dining experience. For appetizers, we started with the chicken wings and garlic flatbread. The wings were incredibly flavorful and juicy, with the perfect balance of seasoning that left me wanting more. The garlic flatbread was just heavenly—crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, with a wonderful blend of garlic and herbs that made it utterly addictive. For the main course, we ordered both the margarita pizza and the pepperoni pizza, and they did not disappoint. The margarita pizza had a wonderfully tangy tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, and a perfectly crisp crust that was both light and satisfying. The pepperoni pizza was equally impressive—loaded with perfectly spiced pepperoni and the right amount of cheese, with a nice balance of flavors in every bite. The crust on both pizzas was just the right amount of chewy, with a slight crispiness that added an extra layer of texture. What really made the experience stand out was the staff. They were incredibly friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a casual yet delicious meal. I highly recommend Mercato Pizzeria to anyone looking for great pizza and outstanding service. It’s definitely a five-star experience!

Loved the wine (pinot noir + valochila) + lemoncello cake. The maradonna pizza was ok (thin,cheesy but missing some omph). Came for happy hour. Will return. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Light-filled and lots of menu choices.

We live down the street and have loved coming to Pizza Mercato in Emeryville ever since they opened! The food is always incredible!!! It tastes and feels so authentic, but the space itself has a fresh, modern aesthetic that makes it feel welcoming and cool without being over the top. We always come back for the carbonara (Soo good), the Quattro pizza, and my husband is obsessed with the meatballs. Everything is made with care and full of flavor. The staff are always friendly and professional in a really chill, approachable way. My only tiny wish is for a few more non-alcoholic drink options, but honestly, that’s just me being picky. This place is a gem and we’re so lucky it’s in our neighborhood! 🫶

Pizzeria Mercato has become our go-to location where you just know you'll always have great food and excellent service. Their Neapolitan style pizza is to die for, as are their pastas. The people are always warm and friendly, and even gave our little one a quick pizza making workshop!

I visited Pizzeria Mercato on Sunday with family and friends, and the experience was extremely disappointing. We went straight to the counter to order, planning to eat inside the Public Market. I asked for spaghetti for the kids—something we've had at this location in the past—and the man behind the counter laughed and said, “We don’t sell spaghetti,” as if it was a ridiculous question. I then asked about gnocchi, and he replied again with attitude: “We don’t have that.” At that point, I politely said, “Well, why don’t you teach us the correct names then?” trying to ease the tension, but it was clear he was already frustrated with us. We ended up ordering a basic pasta with red sauce and a garlic bread to-go for my son. After eating in the market, we realized they had closed before I could pick up the garlic bread. I returned another day to explain the situation and ask for a refund for the garlic bread ($13.23), and was met with even worse customer service. The man behind the counter was extremely rude and clearly lacked training. Instead of handling the refund professionally, he got visibly upset, pulled money out of his own wallet, slammed it on the counter, and said sarcastically, “Here’s $13.25—keep the change,” before walking off. I left feeling humiliated and disrespected for simply asking to be refunded for an item I never received. Pizzeria Mercato seriously needs to retrain their staff in basic customer service and professionalism.

Went to the public market for some lunch, the public area was so crowded. So we decided to check out Pizzeria Mercato, the place is spacious! The calamari was delicious, would order that again! The pizza and pasta were good as well, but the calamari is a must for us. All and all, we had a relaxing lunch.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this cozy Italian restaurant. I was immediately struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, and they were happy to make recommendations. I started my meal with the tortellini tomato. The tortellini was perfectly cooked and the tomato sauce was flavorful and fresh. Overall, I had a wonderful dining experience. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was inviting. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great Italian meal. I would definitely return and try other dishes on the menu.

They have some specials depending on when you dine so check out what’s available. This is part of the food hall but you can enter from within the food hall or from the street. The food is tasty. I think I’ll try the pizza next time as that looks like the best thing here. The salad, pasta and sandwich we ordered were good but not spectacular. I can pass on those next time.

Quick get away lunch from Fremont to try and find a good Quattro Formaggi in the Bay Area. It didn't miss, the crust was fluffy and delicious. It was a little limp but still tasted great. The cheese was fresh, melty, and delicious. The Gorgonzola was a little intense but still blended well with all the rest. We got the meatball appetizer which was 3 decent sized meatballs. They were very good and I enjoyed the sweetness to the sauce. Caesar salad was fresh and croutons and tomatoes were solid. Our service was really good and the place is empty at 1 pm on a Monday. The wine bar looks like a good future visit. Beers on tap were pretty limited with two IPAS, a Stella, and a hefe. We will definitely make the drive from Fremont to eat here again. Forgot the chili oil, that was housemade and has a great flavor adding to the meatballs, pizza Wide open, bright, and comfortable restaurant that could probably be a nice get together for a bigger group.

Hidden away in a corner of Emeryville, Pizzeria Mercato is silently one of the best Italian restaurants in the Bay. While the appetizers are solid, from the arancini to the meatballs, the absolute highlights are the restaurant's wide variety of classic Italian pastas and pizza. With both carbonaras and Margherita pizzas that are similar in quality to those you find in Italy, there's no shortage of classic Italian dishes to try. Having frequented this restaurant almost too many times to count, the two highlights of the menu are the chicken fusilli pasta and the prosciutto pizza, both of which are rich in flavor and leave you wanting more. With great service and a large open space with a wine bar attached, it's the perfect spot to spend an evening to relax and enjoy fantastic hearty Italian food. If you're in the area, Pizzeria Mercato is definitely worth making a separate trip out.

Definitely a great place for wings pizza. Service is exceptional, and the staff is extremely accommodating for large groups The restaurant is very clean beautifully decorated Highly recommend this for anyone looking for wine, delicious pizza, and wings There's plenty of parking across the street

The Beet Salad is delicious. The pizza Quattro Formaggio was very good. The French Fries are like wet noodles, no crunch and almost raw!!! Crunchy is the only way with fries. I think your prices are steep.

If you're craving a Napoli pizza, this is the place! Service is always on point and the selections, delicious. This place is now an Emeryville staple and deserves its accolades!

I was at the Public Market and felt like getting pizza. The server who helped me out was very nice. I got the Brisket Pizza for about $27.50 after tax. It seemed enormous for a 12" personal pizza. It looked better than it tasted. The flavors were very muted. I think the cheese was the best component. The crust was soft and limp with an okay sourdough flavor. The tomato sauce was a plain and basic tomato sauce on the watery side. I was a bit disappointed by the brisket topping, despite the generous amount. The meat was on the dry side and lacked umami flavor. The leftovers tasted better cold, as this brought out the chewiness of the dough and the sweetness of the mild sauce.

Got the brisket pizza with caramelized onions, oil cured peppers, and parsley (though I omitted the parsley and ended up taking off the cured peppers since spice has been upsetting my stomach lately). The pizza was nice and thin, but there was too much cornmeal or semolina on the crust. The tomato sauce tasted less stewed -- more like fresh crushed out of the can rather than a marinara that cooked for a long time. The mozzarella was sliced too thick and caused the center to get soggy as soon as it was delivered to my table. Brisket needed some salt and was a tad dry. Caramelized onions needed more color. A few pieces of onions must've come from an onion that was going bad and tasted of it. I spit it out. Water was so cold and refreshing with a hint of lemon. Though I didn't ask for lemon water and now that I think on it, didn't want it. As for service, the restaurant was empty and the waitress took a few minutes to respond to the service bell once my pizza was ready. This might have been okay if the pizza was in better proportion. Also, eating alone sucks.

Pizza Mercato is located on the exterior of the Public Market, even though I believe there is access from the inside of the building as well. Great spot for casual dining with outside seating as well as a spacious dining area inside. I would have liked to try more of the menu but on this occasion I ordered: Pepperoni Pizza $28 including tax: If you like thin crust, this is excellent pizza. The dough was a good texture with a slight chew, and the pizza had the right amount of sauce to cheese ratio. My only complaint is $28 is high for what you get here. Service was good and the employees helpful. Overall a good spot for Italian cuisine.

I enjoyed the pizza! I thought it was perfect for lunch and tasty, I can't wait to try the other flavors. The mariners sauce was really good too. As for my boyfriend, this isn't his type of pizza place. He would need somewhere heartier and thicker dough. He was still pretty hungry. But if you like thin crust its great! The girl serving us seemed really unbothered and not very interested. Everyone else though was super nice so maybe she was over it that day. But it was very off putting and put a bad taste in our mouths when initially being seated. Came on a Wednesday afternoon and was empty.

Return visit.. ordered the beet salad, rigatoni bolognese and the chocolate mousse pie. These were all delightful and really tasty. The bolognese was more small-mince than chunky -- it was fresh and well layered. Would definitely come back for these dishes.

PM is located in Emeryville's Public Food Market and has an internal entrance from the public market and an external entrance from the street and expansive parking lot. The restaurant is high ceilinged with large glass windows, gray and white walls, black ceiling with exposed pipes and light fixtures, large bar, TVs for your favorite sports, ... an industrial warehouse vibe. We had: - Sausage and Broccoli Rab Truffle Oil pizza which was a thin crust with perfect mix of saltiness from the sausage, bitterness from the broccoli and earthiness from the truffle oil. We liked this flavor combination. - Quinoa Salad which was fresh and full of flavor. Why a 4? The waitress was not happy to be there and not very welcoming on a quiet weekday. We liked the busboy better as he was polite and interacted with us as if he cared...yep...he interacted with us more often than the waitress. She needs to know that her being there is not like a favor to us....

We we enjoyed pepperoni and sausage, pizza, beet salad, and wine. The service was nice and the price was moderate.

Great margherita pizza and cold beer. This restaurant has a large dinning area, outside patio and a good size bar. The pizza I ordered was great, good undercarriage, flavorful and still affordable. The bar has a good selection of beer and wine. I decided to pair my pizza with a craft pint and it didn't disappoint.

Mushroom Pizza 4 stars Calamari 3 stars, corn meal based. Very bland. Aranchini 3 stars, not enough sauce for 3. Bland as well. Rigatoni bolognese was pretty darn tasty. 4 stars. Cesar salad was good. 4 stars

YUM! I loved the prosciutto pizza here! The type of pizza is great, not too thin and not too thick. You can definitely taste the quality and freshness. I added truffle oil to it for an extra $2, which was worth it. The pizza itself is about $25 for 6 slices though.

Another dissapointing meal at the Public Market in Emeryville. Great location with plenty of parking, too bad their food is a hard meh. Full disclosure they refunded me for my horrible rigatoni bolagnase. The waitress was nice so I gave her a good tip. Back to the horrible pasta. Overcooked, but the sauce was what we couldn't stomach. Watery horrible tomato sauce that reminded me of a Hungry Man TV dinner, but worse. We both tried it and sent it back. The manager glared at us, and he kept staring. He was obviously pissed. The waitress also said she would tell the chef, too. Bad vibes all around. The mushroom pizza with added truffle oil was meh. We wished it was piping hot, but it was just like a little more than warm, and we didn't taste the Truffle oil at all. Lemon cake was a hit for me, but a miss for my coworker. Very Tart and bitter lemon sauce on the side, but I personally thought the lemon cake was moist and good. Just a sad experience with a 3 star meh rating. Don't hate the reviewer, I'm just being honest.

Went to the public market for some lunch, the public area was so crowded. So we decided to check out Pizzeria Mercato, the place is spacious! The calamari was pretty good, would order that again! The pizza and pasta were good as well, but the calamari is a must for us. All and all, we had a relaxing lunch.

Horrible food with hair. Only thing good was the place. Food needs to be better. Customer service sucks balls couldn't even get a hi just order a pay an leave it's like why the hell should we even tip anymore.

This a nice option at the Public Market. The space is carved out so it is it's own little restaurant with lots of seating both indoors and out. The employees are lovely, responsive and ready to engage. They have a large bar that is perfect if you want to enjoy a wine or beer with the apps on offer. I was also surprised that they had pasta and sandwiches (like pannis) too. We went for the Artichoke Spinach and Sausage & Broccoli Rabe pizzas knowing we would take some home. We assumed the sausage would be a red sauce, but it wasn't so we ended up with only the white sauce pizzas (our fault for not asking). When I requested a little marinara to dip some of my leftover crust in they were happy to provide it (thank you for going above and beyond). Love the thin crust, and there is so much other than just the pizza I want to try.

We saw the reviews and said let's give it a try. I'm telling you don't miss out if your Emeryville. The food was great, you can taste freshness. The pizza was soft and the tomato base if I'm wrong correct me but super fresh, you can tell that pride goes into the food they serve. Never been to Napoli but if there is a chance in my life I'm going. The service was great as well. Nice and chill atmosphere. My wife and I enjoyed it all. Will be revisiting soon.

I've noticed this pizza place a few times but finally had the chance to stop by today. Glad I did! First of all, they are often open when other restaurants at public market are not - I appreciate this very much. I also appreciate that they have ample indoor and outdoor seating and though they are at the public market, their entrance/access is from outside, not inside the market. They also have a personal pizza with drink lunch special that ends at 230pm. I will definitely take advantage of this next time; that or their $5 pizza on margherita Monday! They actually have a special everyday of the week so make sure to check before you head over! My sister and I shared the spinach artichoke pizza which was a little salty but also very tasty. I particularly liked the freshness of the crust which was thin and perfect - not hard and cardboard like which is what you get with some thin crust pizzas. There were plenty of artichokes and spinach too so they were not stingy with toppings. We also got garlic bread with marinara which was also fresh and tasty. Overall, I would definitely return to this pizza spot and I look forward to trying some other items - mac and cheese and/or their pastas! Oh and I should also note that the staff was fantastic - they greeted us right away, were kind and helpful and patient. A plus for service.

I haven't been to this location in YRS. I was pleasantly surprised to see the change from the last restaurant in this location. I ordered the mushroom pizza with truffle oil. The smell is incredible. The crust was made of what looks like wheat flour. A generous portion of mushrooms were added. The pizza is delish and very creamy tasting. The ceasar salad is delish with a generous portion of dressing. A creamy combo fit for a full body wine. It's a pleasant dining experience. It's a large venue and would be fun with a group. Italian music playing in the background. Many wait staff don't speak English. They were curious to know that I wanted fresh pepper on the pizza. He said, "the pizza already has pepper are you sure you want more?" LOLL Noise from the kitchen and dishwasher waft in the air as it was a slow night. Definitely try it. There is a full menu of Italian food options at Pizzeria Mercado.

I work around Emeryville, CA and was staying over and needed a quick dinner nearby the hotel and office and Pizzeria Mercato had solid reviews and looked good so I gave it shot and it was pretty decent. I was hoping for a thinner crust and more char on the bottom but the meat lovers version (or whatever they called it) was decent and flavorful. I also got a fried calamari starter and that was pretty good as well. Swift table service and water glasses regularly filled made for a good quick dinner with table service. All and all a good meal and I'd go back. Solid meal

Did a quick drive by at Pizzeria Mercato's on Monday night for their Marg Special ($5 off)! Service was quick and excellent with getting my order placed right away. In the meantime, I used the restroom and it was very clean and organized. Pizza came out piping hot and fresh within 9-12 minutes. We were in and out, and on our way home to enjoy an evening in before we knew it. Margherita Pizza is 10/10 Would be back just for this (as we have many times before)! I highly recommend their Brisket Pizza as well! Interested to try their pasta next... But everytime we come, we cannot resist the pizza as it's made in a wood fire oven made in Italy so it's just so authentic. Even some of the servers speak Italian! Legit!

Was craving some good pizza and this location was nearby. The pizza was very good - with a chewy dough and fresh ingredients. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. Parking lot is across the street. Lots of space and free parking! Service was okay. Dining room has many seating available.

Omg!! This place is simply delicious. It's a fairly quiet restaurant located in the Public Market in Emeryville. There are over 10 restaurants to choose from but I'm so glad we chose this place. We ordered the brisket pizza and the fettuccine salmon to share and they both were amazing. The brisket pizza is full of flavor with a nice crust from the wood-burning oven. The fettuccine was cooked perfectly with an amazing dill sauce and tender pieces of salmon. Our waiter was very kind and I thanked the staff before leaving. They were very appreciative that we enjoyed our experience. I can't wait to go back to try something new on the menu. 15/10!!

This place was a surprise find but so happy to have found it!! Pasta and pizza were both amazing and they have a great happy hour. Service was phenomenal. Will definitely be coming back.

This place has great food! They make the pasta right in front you and the pizza is delicious. It was a great flavor and I feel it's authentic. The ambiance is amazing. Very bright and spacious. The decor is beautiful and it really gives you that Italian vibe. I think it's great to go with a big group as well! The bar area is never too crowded. I got the chance to enjoy a nice meal, with a great selection of wine on a Friday evening! This might be my new spot to go when I want drinks and a good meal!!

Cute lil spot located right at the entrance of Public Market. Bathrooms are clean, and there is also outdoor seating that's dog-friendly! The pizzas are a good enough size for one person to get full off of, or to share between two people for a light meal. They are also thin-crusted so they come out pretty quick. We ordered the special - short rib pizza - and it was came out within 10 mins and was really good. Also have ordered their mushroom pizza to go in the past, and enjoyed it then too. Servers were prompt and polite. Dining areas were clean. Def worth stopping by.

I know this is a chain but I'm biased because I would come here weekly ever since it opened-- especially when me and my husband don't feel like cooking. We even used to have our wedding planning meetings here or after practicing our wedding dance nearby. It's dog friendly patio as well (a must for us). We've tried a lot of the menu items but always gravitate for the pizzas and calamari fritti of course. Garlic bread and marinara sauce - we tried this because we got a flier in the mail for a free side. Who doesn't love free bread? But I don't know if I would buy it if it wasn't free because I prefer getting the salad and calamari instead. My husband on the other hand thinks it's too dense and too garlicky (I love extra garlic though) Italian Quinoa Salad - this is very nourishing and fresh, a large portion for the half salad. Sometimes we add chicken. Calamari fritti - my favorite appetizer here. I know the portion sizes have gotten smaller over the years but we still enjoy it a lot. I love the light breading and the sauce is mild. Pizzas: -Margherita pizza - solid favorite of ours. We like to come on Mondays for their $5 off Margherita Monday special. -Mushroom pizza - I'm a fan of mushrooms but my husband is not. Safe to say I can eat the whole pie. -Meat Lovers - one of my husband's favorite. It's very good! -Brisket pizza - we also enjoy this one a lot. It's unusual but worth a try Dessert - Tiramisu I sometimes come here by myself to get this since it's the closest tiramisu walking distance from Public market. I can eat the whole thing in one sitting. Drinks My husband usually gets an IPA and I get a Diet Coke always! Service The servers are always attentive and they always recognize us lol. Parking Recommend parking in the lot across the street. There's also street parking and parking behind Public Market - as well as Publjc Market garage parking. We love being regulars here and would love to see more people show some love.

Excellent service; we shared a mushroom pizza and fusilli pasta with mushrooms and truffle oil. Really delicious!!

Soooo expensive and really annoying system with their margarita Monday deal. You have to order IN PERSON to get it. They don't answer their phone and they don't give the discount online. $16 for a personal cheese pizza is on the high side, but tonight I paid $22 because as I learned, the only way Tibet their margherita Monday deal is ordering in person and awkwardly waiting 15 mins. The prices are not reasonable. This place should not exist. Trash ordering and eating experience. Pizza is okay.

I'm surprised this place isn't busier. Had the beet salad, best beet salad I've ever had. It was so well balanced, not too sweet, not too tangy, not too earthy, and just a hint of onion. I would go back just for that salad. Pizza had a great chewy crust. Honestly the beet salad stole the show for both of us. Lovely dining room with view of the kitchen. A bar area if you want to watch the game. Kid friendly. Great, attentive, service. I will be back! Ps I'm still thinking about that salad

Quite a surprise hidden gem in my opinion. We came here late on a Monday night after most of the stalls had closed in the public market and decided to grab some pizza. I knew they had some deal in Monday's from being around the market before. Turns out Mondays are Margherita Mondays, $5 off the Margherita pizza. For $13 it was an absolute steal of a deal. PIZZA - really delicious, it probably spends about a minute only in the hot oven and came out steaming hot. The fought had a great chew and nice char at the bottom that added great flavor. The cheese looked like it was going to be just a little but each cheese bite was surprise my very Cheesey GARLIC BREAD - this was free with a Yelp check in and a really nice compliment to everything. Another item that comes from the oven and made with what seemed like the pizza dough. Great chew and garlic flavor with same nice flavor from the charred spots. MEATBALL SANDWICH- another great surprise. I very rarely use the term "light and refreshing" for meatballs or sandwiches and absolutely never for both until now. The bread was, again, baked in the oven out of the dough. Lots of arugula balanced out everything with the meatballs split in half the sandwich was really light! I was very pleasantly surprised with this. Fries were $4 extra and nothing special but still delicious and crispy. Highly recommend this spot and especially if you can come on a Monday for the pizza deal $5 off. For me and my girlfriend the bill was only $37 with tax and we took home half a sandwich and slice of pizza. Hidden gem in plain sight.

Bad service, don't waste your money or time. The waiter/owner whoever the heck he is is a total JERK! They no longer have papardelle they use a fusilli which is only good for Mac and cheese, then the no good tried to argue I had the fusilil the last time, not a good look. Don't play with me, I gave 0 tip. Miserable troll. Avoid like the plague

Was in Berkeley on some business and found this spot. Not sure if it ever gets super buys, but we came early afternoon on a Sunday and there was plenty of parking across the street. Was super clean and quiet and greeted immediately when we walked in. Mom ordered the garlic bread, not for me cuz garlic gives me stinky poots, but the small piece I had the bread was good. Caesar salad was legit. Pizza was crack Chicken tender sandwich was fire. All the employees were super friendly. Highly recommend the pizza, but you would be doing yourself wrong if you didn't split that chicken sandwich with someone

I had a great time. Pasta was delicious, pizza was good, and the salads are fresh with, large portions. Food came out in less than 15 minutes. We ordered pizza, mushroom pappardelle, wine, garlic bread, and chicken nuggets and fries. I can't complain. Service, decor, great food in a spacious restaurant with an open kitchen! We will return!

Amazing pizza! The quattro formaggi is one of the best 4 cheese pizza I've had. Chicken wings were mediocre. Service was attentive, and ambience is catchy.

Had a trip planned for IKEA to pick up some furniture but was in need of a pit stop to give myself energy for the heavy lifting. We made our into the Public Market and stumbled upon Pizzeria Mercato during their happy hour - 20% off all menu items M-F from 2:30-5:00PM. Really spacious, lots of seating, quick and friendly service. Parking lot available across from the market. We ended up grabbing the garlic bread with marinara, meatball sandwich, and a brisket pizza. All three used the gooey, mochi-like pizza dough as the carb base. The garlic bread came out right away and had great texture and flavor. Saltiness from the bread paired well with the sweet, orange-colored marinara that accompanied it. The meatball sandwich had a good flavor profile, but the texture of the meatballs were a bit dense and had a snappy bite to it. I typically prefer my meatballs to half a little bit of airiness to it and a little bit of crumble. Also not a big fan of fennel seeds. The brisket pizza was quite nice but does need a little touching up. A sprinkle of salt went a long way to help carry the flavors across your palate. Red pepper flakes and a bit of the marinara from the garlic bread balanced it perfectly.

This is s great neighborhood pizza spot! They feature very friendly and kind wait-staff...they go out of their way to make you feel very special!

Located in public market Clean and spacious Pasta was soft and springy texture Creamy delicious sauce. Pizza ~ thin crust with generous toppings Ordered and pay at counter Friendly service. Plenty parkings.

The food was amazing! I had the fettuccine salmon & it was one of the best pastas I've had. The sauce was creamy and flavorful and the salmon wasn't overcooked. My boyfriend opted for the pepperoni pizza with hot honey on top and it was also delicious. I think the hot honey was a perfect addition. Their service was good and I liked the ambiance of the restaurant. It's nice when you enter the hallway & see the beautiful murals. We will definitely be back :)

There's been a veritable explosion of great pizza places in the Bay Area, but Pizzeria Mercado continues to be a hidden gem and one of my favorite Neapolitan joints bar none. These pizzas are ultra thin and baked to perfection, with an exquisitely chewy crust and sauce and topping just loaded with flavor. Mondays are Margherita Mondays where margherita pizzas are $5 off, making it honest the best value anywhere. They also have great pasta dishes and sandwiches. Don't miss out!

Ordered a chicken parmigiana sandwich to go. There was no tomato sauce and almost no cheese on it. If I'd still been at the restaurant, I would have sent it back. Very disappointing food.

I came for a Yelp elite event once, and was so excited to come back. The pizzas are very tasty and fluffy, the perfect neopolitan pizza! I love the margherita. Cheese is generous. And the brisket is an interesting alternative. Service was very prompt and friendly. I also like that they have several beer options. It is order at the counter - I like this concept Pizza is my favorite food, so I will definitely be back!

Big, open space, very bright. Staff friendly and welcoming. Quick service when we were there, but it also wasn't very busy. Really enjoyed the texture of the crust, good flavors on toppings. Wish we'd been smart enough to try one pizza with tomato sauce- maybe next time!

Thank goodness for Margherita Mondays! If you come on a Monday, you get $5 off a margherita pizza, so now I have an excuse to come here every week. We tried the margherita pizza (usually $16.95) and the mushroom pizza ($18.95), which stuffed the 2 of us and we still had leftovers. They're 12 inch Neapolitan pizzas, but honestly felt pretty big. The crust was thin but light and fluffy on the edges, while the pizza had the right amount of toppings. It was the best pizza I've had in awhile and the prices were reasonable too. There's plenty of open seating indoors and some outdoor spots. This is definitely a great addition to the Emeryville public market and I can't wait to try more of their pizzas and pasta!

We've eaten here often since they opened and I'm surprised I haven't left a review. Today I ordered the Maradona Pizza (meat pizza) and I added basil & broccoli rabe. I really think the broccoli rabe makes such a difference. Yum (sorry no pic) And I split a half Italian Quinoa salad - I really really liked this salad. Pizzas are definitely big enough to share but small enough to order solo. My co-workers usually eat an entire pizza. Also, their meatball sandwich is a go to for another co-worker. Located at the Emeryville Public Market it has a dining room separate from the huge eating area inside the market. Plenty of parking BUT be warned if you park in the pick up spots (15 minutes) there are parking attendants that will give you a ticket if you stay longer.

After seeing all the Yelp hype for this spot, I immediately bookmarked it for a future meal. The pizza and calamari were hardwired in my brain to order, as the pics looked mouth-watering. I met a friend for dinner on a weekday and we sat outside. Ordering is easy via a QR code. We got a focaccia appetizer, the Quattro Formaggi (4-cheese) pizza, and the fried calamari. Standout was the pizza, which you can taste each of the tasty cheeses and the crust was crispy. I had really high hopes for the calamari, as it's hard to find that a place that does it justice- quality calamari cooked just right what that tender interior and light crisp exterior. The past pics of it on Yelp looked close to this, but the calamari I received didn't quite measure up. It was good, had large meaty pieces, but was a little too salty and not as tender as I'd hoped. Just wondering what the change was from those past pics to now- maybe cooked too long? Overall, however- it was a tasty experience. They have a huge indoor dining room, a cool pizza oven, and very friendly staff. I would like to try the pappardelle and some of the other pizza types on my next visit. Location is in the plaza of the Emeryville public market where a different Italian spot always seems to set down roots. Hopefully this one stays!
