Review: I love this little jewel in the Bay Area! The whole wheat pizza crust is delicious. We had the Greek Goddess pizza and it was divine. Will order some for a dinner party while I'm here in the Bay Area.

Review: I will have to return again and try the Hawaiian pizza based on these reviews, but my partner and I got a medium pizza delivered (they do delivery) with vegan pepperoni and I think artichokes, and when we opened the box we were met with a flat-looking pie covered sparsely with vegan cheese and toppings, when the toppings were purported to be generous, and there was also only a think layer of sauce. I've really been wanting to actually physically enter the restaurant and see if I'm missing something, but the pizza I got required a lot of extra nutritional yeast, salt, and red pepper flakes to make it worthwhile, and for the price, $18-$20, it was disappointing. I'm not giving up though. I love vegan pizza as much as the next vegan pizza lover, and am not giving up hope.
 
Pros: Delivery * *
Cons: Sparse toppings * Not enough vegan cheese or sauce * Bland

Review: I loved this place. Very nice staff and awesome cheesecake for dessert. I do agree that locking your car and setting the alarm is a good idea though.
 
Pros: Great food * Friendly people * No long wait
Cons: Could use a facelift in front * small *

Review: Cheap and yummy vegan pizzas and desserts. (Vegetarian options also available.) No long wait for your pizza either. Lanesplitters in Berkeley is better, but this is good for quick, cheap vegan food.

Review: I LOVE THIS PLACE. LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.


I am still in SHOCK at how great the pizza was. It tasted EXACTLY as I remembered it...(I ordered ham and pineapple pizza.)

I ate half of the pizza in one sitting and the rest of it when I get home. Let me tell you: THAT WAS A LOT OF FOOD!

My omni roommates were freaked out that it was fake, but agreed with me that it tasted EXACTLY like regular, ole pizza.

GO! (And lock your car...and turn on the alarm.)

Review: From the warm and welcoming vibe you get upon entering from the staff to the veg piled vegan options, this place won us over instantly. We were visiting San Fran and arrived in Oakland, knowing our first meal on the west coast would be from here. We're so glad we made that decision and have been craving their delicious pies ever since! Delicious Vegan Pizza!!!!! Does it GET any better than that?

Review: Based on the other reviews, I went here with high expectations, and even they were beaten! We had the "chicken" florentine pizza, and it excellent, with a very nice crust. Something the other reviews didn't mention: The pizza was served with a paper napkin between the pizza and tray, and there was barely any grease at all on the napkin! Can you imagine what that napkin would look like if a place like Pizza Hut tried it?

The pizza here isn't just great vegan pizza; it's just great pizza!

 
Pros: Great pizza * Friendly staff * Healthy cuisine
Cons: Small, few tables. * *

Review: it's great to be able to order a vegan pizza with soy cheese and some kick. this place has two menus, one of which is completely vegan and features every "meat" combination you can imagine made up of ham (veggie slices), chicken (seitan), beef (ditto), mock pepperoni, and more. i'm partial to the mock ham and pineapple combo as well as the sweet potato, avocado, and chicken pizza (no kidding). bonus: they deliver.
 
Pros: seitan toppings. * avocado? sweet potato? * delivery!
Cons: * *
