What a great find. We were in Berkeley for a show and booked this place by just looking up reviews and by proximity. The service and food was phenomenal. We had a very tasty wine, a gem salad, gluten free pizza and a dessert. It was the best gluten free pizza I've ever had. I can't wait to go back.
My favorite GF pizza. I have been celiac for 10+ years so I have tried many GF pizzas around the country. This is the best one. The calzone is amazing. If it were me I would add about 10% more sauce and toppings but other than that it's miles better than anything I can make at home. Please treat yourself and support the nice folks who own the place, very kind and helpful. Love it.
The best pizza in the Bay area. So fresh and delicious and don't be afraid the chili oil. The salads are also great with creative ingredients.
Love their pizzas, pastas, and soups. Everything I have ordered from here has been good! They also clearly label vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free items on the menu.
Great pizza

We booked Lucia’s PIZZA TRUCK for a lawn party in the presidio and they were AMAZING. Easy to work with, great price, and all the food was so good, from salads and appetizers to wood fired pizzas. They were so gracious to make gluten free and vegan pizzas on request. Our guests loved them.

I ordered the Vongole pasta for over 20 dollars and it was such a disappointment. The pasta was really bland and honestly tasted like pasta water + butter. For the amount I paid, it was also crazy to me that it was not fresh pasta (had a box pasta taste). Worst of all, the clams were really fishy. Complained to the waiter but she was aggressive and gave mean looks. Do NOT recommend.

We started by ordering the meatball tapas which was $14 for only 6 tiny one-bite meatballs. They tasted alright but $14 for 6 bites was absurdly overpriced. For the main course, we had the bolognese and the vongole clam pasta. The bolognese was nothing special, and was also extremely overpriced at $25. The vongole clam pasta was flavorless, used store-bought pasta and had undercooked clams. The clams tasted super fishy and were mushy in texture. When we brought this up with the server, she was very unaccommodating and condescending. Overall, this place is very overpriced for very mediocre food and service. Would not recommend.

Good solid authentic Italian food. I had the caponata served with plain pizza dough triangles. My son had the Marguerita pizza. Service a little shaky with servers huddled in the back of the restaurant rather than checking on diners

We ordered the brussels sprouts as an appetizer, they were delicious. My wife and I each ordered a personal pizza, I feel like they were almost watery. As soon as you picked up a slice, it dropped down and all the toppings fell off.

I lived in Berkeley for a few years, and Lucia's was a regular stop at least once a week. The restaurant is beautiful, the owners are wonderful, and the food is fantastic. One of the best pizzas of my life. I loved the tiramisu and it was truly homemade! I highly recommend it

Thanks to their latest technology, once you cross the entrance, you will be teleported to Italy, where you can savor authentic tastes. Their cuisine is balanced and astonishing, turning dinner into a delightful evening of sharing and good food. Thank you, Lucia's, for being here to share these emotions with everyone!
