NY Style Thin Crust Pizza Located in a quaint neighborhood, residents of the Bay Area consider Gioia Pizzeria to be the only pizzeria that offers true New York style thin crust pizza. The menu is very limited, including a selection of only 7 types of pizza, however the pizzas are very unique with toppings such as cremini mushrooms, fatted calf fennel sausage, capers etc. Prices are somewhat expensive at $3.25/slice and $23/pie however the serving sizes are generous and the quality of the toppings are worth the price.

Authentic NY pizza We stumbled onto this place when we saw the line of people waiting to buy a slice. Boy are we glad we did. They serve thin, authentic NY style pizza. Our realtor, a NY transplant also told us about Gioia's. He goes there every week to get his fix. You can buy by the slice or by a pie. Slices run less than $3 so you can try several. This place is so good, my hubbie and I can finish a whole funghi pie by ourselves. PROS: Inexpensive, fast, and good CONS: The no longer serve the meatball pizza

Best Berkeley Pizza Are you homesick for New York? After many pizza eating disasters in Berkeley, I found this place to be the closest to New York Pizza that you'll find. Only downfalls are that it's a bit greasy, and you are pigeonholed into ordering from only 3 different pizzas. But, it's tasty: thin crust, good as you're going to get to NY.

Best pizza in bay area Ok, so I haven't actually tried every single pizzeria in the bay area. But having moved out here from NYC, I'm somewhat of a pizza snob, and was ready to give up altogther on pizza in the bay area until i stumbled across Gioia Pizzeria. Their authentic thin crust NY style pizza is amazing. I might even say that some of their slices are better because they use fresh organic vegetable toppings. It's a mandatory trip for all pizza lovers.

Delicious pizza by the slice for takeaway. Melanzane pictured. Fresh, high quality ingredients in an unassuming spot.
