The salad and pizza here are exceptional - the best in the area. Skip the overhyped "farm-to-table" and "artisanal pizza" places in the area. Their salad features remarkably fresh greens with perfect dressing and added crunch for texture. The pizzas had flawless crusts, flavorful toppings, and quality cheeses with an ideal balance on each pizza. A truly standout dining experience.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Service was manned by two people and was quick and efficient. Ambience is great too. Perfect for a casual date night. read more

We came to this place with some friends, who had been here before, and what a great find this was! We had a group of right and we ordered four pizzas: the Ollie, the Hunter, the Lolo, and the Burrata. All of the pizzas were out of this world! The crust especially was terrific: light yet crispy. The toppings were all fresh and flavorful. We also ordered the state flower house salad and the endive apple salad. Both of those were fantastic as well. The owner and staff here are also especially nice. You could tell by the way they interacted with the other patrons. It felt like the people here knew that they had stumbled across a great treasure! (When we walked in there was a woman by herself who was eating the pepperoni pizza and reading a book. And that also looked terrific and the place just feels comfortable.) This is one of those places where you almost don't want to let the people know about it because you know it's going to get overcrowded, but at the same time you cannot help yourself because the food is so terrific and the owner is so nice that you want them to succeed! read more

Delicious gluten free cauliflower pizza, wonderfully attentive staff. Very busy, but worth the wait.

Great pizza plus good salads and wine. A nice place to share a pie before heading over to see a movie at the Elmwood Theater. I do wish they stayed open until at least 10. 9pm is such an early time to close, and we typically don't eat until 8:30 or so. Nonetheless, this place is cute. If you sit upstairs on a chilly night, it's nice, warm seating due to the heat rising from the pizza oven. We'll definitely be back. read more

A solid NY pie in Oakland. Sauce is just right in richness and amount. Crust is thin, no flop, slightly sweet and chewy like NY. $25 for all large is pretty standard nowadays for a quality pizza and that's what you get here. I took it to go, and the interior looks like a quaint little place for cozy eating. read more

Artisan pizza that quickly became our go to. Friendly folks when i was there but great to order too. Berkeley Bowl West also has it in their glass case at the moment which is how i discovered them. We stick w the thicker crust as a preference. read more

Break pizza. We got slices at lunch. Not too greasy. Flavors were great, crust, and sauce all on point.

As a pizza aficionado and home cook that makes Neapolitan pizzas, I gladly recommend the Margharita and the Endive Apple salad. The Margherita is a delightful blend of New York and Neapolitan styles, maintaining the simple yet resolute tomato sauce held up by the crisp, firm crust always sought after by the New Yorker -- no flop! The aforementioned sauce remains pure from the extravagant ingredients which bring the sauce of the New York pie to the forefront of the palette. State Flour Pizza's margherita playfully balances between the flavors of tomato and crust. The endive salad is delightfully put together. The crisp lettuce plays very well with the delicately flaky, umami from the dried prosciutto. These components are balanced well by the sweetness and satisfying juiciness of the apple slices. This restaurant would hold its own in the New York pizza scene. read more

Pizza is great but it's hard to find places that you would want to go for lunch because you need to order a whole pie. But here, you can get pizza by the slice for lunch times! Thats one big plus for me It's a small shop on college but the pizza is delicious. I got the Cauliflower square slice. Cauliflower was perfectly soft and the peruvian sauce that's on top is tangy and awesome. It goes well with the pizza. Pepperoni is a classic. It was more tomatoey than I expected but if that is you then go for it Corn slice is a giant slice that has corn and tomatoes. Very simple but the texture is good. Overall, good experience if you want a pretty decent pizza by the slice. I wish there were more ingredients for some like more meat pizza but for what they have it is good Service was awesome as they brought out the pizza for you and it was quick. Small place but there's an upstairs seating area. I got 3 slices for 2 of us and that was very filling read more

State Flour Pizza - Cauliflower, Pepperoni, Corn - Pizza Near Me - Berkeley, California

I found this place because of the great reviews and it did not disappoint! My friends and I got the hunter and shroom slices, as well as the pepperoni square slices. The flavors are perfectly balanced and will leave you wanting more! There's places to sit downstairs and upstairs with self-serve water and utensils. It is a great place to stop by for a bite and I'm looking forward to visiting again. read more

Really good pizza that I don't hear much talk about in the bay. Simple fresh ingredients, great crust. That's all you need. It's not a big pizza or a cheese monster to feed your baseball team, but definitely should be on everyone's radar. read more

Probably the best pizza I've had in the Bay Area. Well balanced toppings and red sauce tasted very high quality. Service was also really good. I also love that the founder of this pizza res came from Pizza Hacker in SF, one of the best current SF pizza shops. read more

I can't say what dining in is like. I got delivery. The pizza wasn't hot when it arrived. The sauce doesn't go even close to the edges. The toppings are scanty. It tastes ok, but it's not at all filling. It was way too expensive for what you get pizza-wise. I ordered 3 pizzas for 3 people and that was too much if you measure by the whole pizza, but if you look at just the part with sauce, cheese, & toppings, it was about right. I ordered desserts. The chocolate mousse was phenomenal. I didn't try the strawberry panna cotta but it was devoured. What you need to know, this is essential, only about 25% of the menu can be ordered for delivery. There were specialty pizzas that looked really interesting on the website and I would definitely have ordered something more novel than Margherita if it had been available. It was good pizza if you only want the middle and don't mind paying super premium prices for mostly plain bread. read more

Friendly, gracious proprietor and staff. Excellent pizza and brilliant salads. Highly recommended!

We ordered the kids cheese , the burrata pizza, and a house salad. The kids cheese pizza was all right but the burrata on the other pizza was a liquidy glop and the house salad had nothing in it that was described in the menu. It was just a box of plain lettuces. Update: owner was very nice and reached out very promptly and apologized. They offered to refund the meal and offered a replacement meal. read more

Dessert is heavenly!! Vanilla panna cotta with Kensington honey, lime and seasonal fruit (this week: blueberries) is delightful. You won't regret getting dessert. read more

I learned about this place from the Chronicle and thought we would give it a try on a Friday night. Boy did it exceed my expectations! The customer service was definitely something that stood out for me. Brian was more than receptive, acknowledging our presence when we were in line & he told the truth there was an hour wait for the pizza. We decided to order a drink & a salad to pass the time. And when we were still waiting, Brian offered to add a splash to my Cava! No one does that these days! The pics of the pizzas proved that it was worth the wait! read more

Delicious everything! We had their special pizza- pepperoni, jalapeño, fresh corn, and a drizzle of something creamy and green. Soooo good! We also had their endive salad which was perfect and two glasses of chilled red that the manager suggested. Loved it all! Walked across the street for a movie to finish up a perfect date night. The staff was so sincerely sweet, just loved everything about this place! read more

Even the small size pizza was pretty filling. Great for a solo lunch. No leftovers needed.

There is a pizza renaissance going on in the east bay right now and I'm glad to be a part of it. The dough is light, with a slightly crispy bottom and chewy interior. The toppings were sparse, but flavorful. I did see some other pizzas come out that seemed to have more robust toppings which I'd like to try. I also got a radicchio salad of some sort which was light and refreshing. I'll be back to try a more meat heavy pie next time. read more

Finally an amazing pizza place! Flavors and ingredients are perfectly executed in this simple but amazing restaurant. The ambience is cute and clean, and the service is great. Beer selection is well thought out (I am married to a picky Bavarian, and I am an American who really likes beer). The owner seems passionate about this food, and motivated to provide a quality product for locals as well as tourists. So grateful!!! read more

State Flour Pizza - Andechs beer and the "Darcy" pizza w/anchovies and onions to name a few - Pizza Near Me - Berkeley, California

Great pizza, friendly staff, nice environment. Here' the extra text to meet the stupid 85 character Yelp requirement.

Had an hour to kill in Berkeley before a meeting and found this little gem in Elmwood. Service with a smile and hands down THE BEST gluten free pizza I've ever had. A light, airy pan pizza style. Can't recommend more for locals, even if you can tolerate gluten! read more

We stumbled into this place before seeing a movie across the street. The waiter was really friendly and helpful and the pizza (I had the Burrata pizza) was absolutely delicious. The burrata was just the perfect amount of gooey and salty. The tomato sauce was perfect. I'm a NY-er and kind of snobby about my pizza but this was as good as Lucali in Brooklyn! read more

The best pizza in the East Bay. I've tried most of them, but nobody beats State Flour. I realize that tastes vary, and not everyone will agree. So here's what I'm looking for--i'm a transplanted New Yorker: I like thin crust, done crispy with a little char. The State Flour crusts are perfect. And the toppings are imaginative, creative, and delicious. The cheeses are all primo. The Burata pie is memorable. There's a Hunter's pie with sausage and pepperoni, a BLT with bacon, arugula, and poached egg, the classic pepperoni, and a Casanova for meat lovers. Several more that I haven't tried yet. They're all winners. There are several excellent beer choices, some wine, and delicious apple endive salad. Haven't had room to try the desserts. The place looks small, with just a few tables, but there's a lot more space upstairs. Service is gracious and professional. These guys know what they're doing and they do it very well. read more

Ordered delivery from their website which was fulfilled by DoorDash. The courier must have thought the pizza looked so good he ate it himself. I texted the number on the receipt, and the owner apologized profusely and remade the pizza and had someone at the shop we redeliver it. I'm sadly dairy free and gluten free and not dumb enough to eat dairy free gluten free pizza for pleasure even though I think this joint offers it. The pizza was for my girlfriend who enjoyed the pizza. She said it was literally, actually, factually, the best pizza she has ever had. The pannacotta was also the best desert she has ever had. This is high praise. read more

The pizza was great! The burrata was nicely melty and a bit cold, a good contrast to the hot pizza. The basil added a nice touch of flavor. I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Consistently delicious every time. Best eaten fresh - not as good reheated. Often has fun new combinations. The squares also have great flavors but would have loved some more cheese to balance out the bread/sauce ratio. read more

So delicious. Got the burrata (aka, Margherita) and Lolo (pineapple and sopresetta) and loved them both. The Margherita is our go-to and then we swap out the second pizza to try new things. Services is so friendly, too. It's a cute spot if you dine in as well. read more

Really really yummy and wonderful service. Ordered my truffle pizza and didn't realize it had meat on it, I mentioned it when it arrived and they replaced it immediately even though the fault was mine. The Margherita was also absolutely delicious. This place is not exactly my price range for pizza as a student, but whenever I have the chance to splurge for a date night or something, I will absolutely come back! Thank you! read more

I grew up in the Northeast. I've eaten pizza in NYC. I've eaten pizza in Naples. A lot of pizza in the Bay Area kinda sucks. This does not. This is good pizza. read more

Loved the pizza here. Crust and dough were awesome, thin and baked to perfection. We got the burrata and the gaia. Gaia pizza was super unique and interesting with cauliflower and the sauce kinda tasted like green goddess. Lotsa garlic on that pizza and I was there for it. Gaia was quite rich so I'm glad we got the burrata pizza to balance it out. The 2 pizzas took awhile to come out (25ish min) but they were pretty busy on a Friday night. Very cute place, would come again! read more

Best slices in East Bay with prices to match. How has this place not blown up yet? We have gotten their margerita, pepperoni, shroom, and hunter slices before. I'll take them over rose, sliver, cheese board, and square pie any day of the week. The owner, Derek, is the best. read more

A phenomenal gem that is going to bring life to this part of College ave. Thank you Derek for taking a chance and opening up State Flour Pizza Company. Space: Lighting is absolutely spot on, it complements the warmth of the space. The two-storied layout gives you two perfect options for dining: in the cozy upstairs or amongst the friendly kitchen downstairs? I don't think you can go wrong. Salad: The pear endive salad is exactly what I look for in a salad: textural, crisp, and beautiful blue cheese. Pizza: I saw the the most glorious wreath of dressed arugula I have ever seen on the BLTSEA Neapolitan style pizza. Absolutely incredible. Wine: I had a glass of the Benestra. A beautiful combo of notes I can only describe as dark chocolate and violet in a light bodied red. It went perfectly with dinner. read more

So excited that we have a fantastic pizza place in our neighborhood and great salads. The crust is thin and chewy, the toppings tasty and interesting, just the way I like it! read more

I just happened to walk by State Flour Pizza and I discovered a gem when I popped in! I stopped in between their lunch hours (12 to 3) and was able to order just a slice -- It can be so difficult to find pizza shops that offer slices, so I was very pleased with that! The service was extremely kind and quick -- My slice was heated briefly, boxed up to take on the go, and even sprinkled with fresh parmesan cheese! They had several varieties of slices available for lunch -- Thin and Square -- containing a mix of meats and vegetables. I tried the Square Pepperoni Pizza and loved it. The crust was soft on the inside and crunchy on the exterior, and the pepperoni was cooked to a perfect crisp. The interior is light and welcoming, and there is seating available both downstairs (main level) and upstairs. read more

100% will be coming back! The manager, Derek, and team are absolutely lovely and the pizza is FIRE! They also have a great wine selection and I tested it out by trying the orange wine they had - before today, I have only had one orange wine that I enjoyed in my life and it was in Mykonos Greece - and they nailed it. Phenomenal well done guys! loyal fan earned. read more
