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" =)
