Cheeseboard has converted this carnivore into a loyal customer. Sure, not all veggies are created equal and it is a bit of a roulette spin, so call first to find out what the pizza if the day is!

Different style pizza every day but always vegetarian. Fresh ingredients and always delicious plus employee owned and usually a live band during their evening hours. Great ambiance

Live band and open store front for outdoor seating--can't go wrong with that even if it's not the best pizza of the day.

Follow them on FB or Twitter to basically always wish you could have their pizza. And the line is always long, but moves quickly. And there's a new parklet so you don't have to sit on the median.

Pretty decent GF pizza! They added lemon zest (seems to be a trend) which I wasn't keen on, but otherwise delish!

There is only one flavor per day, but they are all good! Also the green sauce is amazing, and there’s a good local beer selection!

The pizza I got was a combo of mushrooms, goat cheese, mozzarella, garlic olive oil, and other delicious stuff. Service is fast since they only offer one type of pizza per day.

Only 1 special (vegetarian) pizza/salad/dessert that changes up daily. There will be a line but it moves quickly!

They make one flavor per day (check online or their Twitter) and gluten-free is now available! Arguably some of the best GF pizza I've ever had. GF is sold by the box only ($24 at time of posting).

Absolutely delicious vegetarian pizzas. It's not good for people who like to have a lot of choices (they only serve one specific kind of pizza a day), but what they do have to offer is FANTASTIC.

The line moves quick, so don't be disheartened if it's long. Check online to see what pizzas they've got coming up -- the key lime and corn is not to be missed

For just a nibble, the Cheese Board Bakery & Cheese shop next door sells cookies, bialys, and some of the best sourdough baguettes in town. Read more

Fresh corn, zucchini, onions, French feta & mozzarella, key limes and garlic oil pizza all the way. Find out when they're serving that and I guarantee, you will devour it ravenously within seconds.

Hands down, one of the BEST pizzas I have had in my life. A MUST go when in Berkeley, just make sure to check operating hours and daily flavor (one per day; Tues-Sat).

The pizza toppings change daily so be sure to check the menu online before you show up. And come early... There's a line.

I'm not a vegetarian, but all of the pizzas I have had from here are really amazing! Worth the wait; the line goes relatively quick. Need cash if buying less than $10!

A pleasant surprise find. Each order comes with bonus portion of pizza. Just expect to see a long lineup during dinner time. But it's worth the wait.

Very good US-style pizza. Super cheesey (as the name suggests). If you are after traditional Italian pizza, this is not the place.

Amazing! Don't go into the cheese shop if you're looking for cooked pizza like we did. :) They only do one specialty pizza per day.
