Best Pizzerias in El Cerrito

We shared entrees, black cod and steak. Both were excellent. As always, the dessert was almost too good; I wanted to order another. Babette's has the best outdoor space in Berkeley-- hard to think what more we could ask for.

We had the Jovanotti pizza, crust-excellent; weekly special salad arugula w/strawberries and little of gorgonzola cheese. Dessert had affogato and gelato, very good will go back to try the fresh pasta. neighborhood gem.

First time there, I really enjoyed everything! The vibe was nice, great service and the food was great!

We started at Happy Hour and didn't want to leave :) This place is truly a neighborhood gem. Along with good food and drinks, the aura was top tier. There was a nice mix of families, friends, couples and everyone seemed to have a great time. The owner was there watering the flowers and flashing his welcoming smile to the guests. The interior is so well put together, comfortable yet elegant, and lives up to the tagline "swanky pizza lounge." We would 100% recommend and will be going back to try more dishes. For the food - we had the meatballs appetizer with the fried dough, vodka rigatoni, little gem salad with anchovy, caccio de pepe, blueprint pizza and canoli, shared between two people. Plenty of food with a small container of leftovers for midnight snack. At one point we mixed the meatballs with the rigatoni and they complemented each other well. I personally enjoyed the house chili sauce and added a touch of that to the pizza and rigatoni with a dash of chili flakes. It adds a very light spice w/out changing the flavors too much. They have a good selection of wines, spirits and cocktails. But just in case you wanted to bring your own bottle of wine, there is no corkage fee. We were so elated, it's unique and is much appreciated. The cannoli flight with a shot of espresso was a perfect way to finish the meal.

Always great going to Che Fico at Thrive City! The Host recognized me- they have a great team there. The pizza is 1st rate. We ordered the potato chips as well and those were wonderful. The other patrons are friendly- a really nice demographic- friends, families, co-workers, a great group of folks to dine with. Views are amazing, space heaters are working and warm. I know I'm going to enjoy my meal, the company, the staff and a basketball game whenever I'm there.
