The pasta here is super yummy! It always comes out hot and fresh and with a toasted piece of bread. I got the pesto chicken pasta which had a lot of chicken, and the sauce was super creamy and cheesy. The portions are also huge, which makes the price very worth it. You order with a cashier and they bring it to wherever you are sitting, or you can take it to go.

A solid 3.5 star restaurant. For the price you paid, you get a huge portion, piping hot pasta and calzone. This is a quick pasta place that offers decent pasta, pizza, calzone, and plates (meat and seafood). The meatball sandwich was filled with cheese and so was the godfathers pasta filled with calzone.

I'm a huge pasta lover. I have been wanting to try this place for everrrr so when I finally got the chance while visiting Berkeley, it was awesome. The interior is a bit packed at times and is on the smaller side, service is efficient and pasta didn't take too long to come out, considering that every dish is made to order. Pollo con Pesto (4.5/5): The pesto was absolutely delicious. It's a pesto cream sauce so you get the strong flavor of basil, but also the richness of the cream. We substituted the fettuccini for penne, the sauce stuck onto the pasta really well and the hollowness of it allowed for us to get more sauce in for every bite. Only complaint was that the chicken was pretty dry and not well flavored, and the garlic bread is a bit cold and bland. Gypsys Chicken (4.5/5): The cream sauce was to die for, I loved how rich and creamy it was, paired with the mushrooms as well. It's not exactly alfredo, has a bit of a different taste to it but it was sooo good. Again, my only complaint was the chicken and the cold bread. Would definitely come back! Portions are absolutely huge so definitely share if your stomach is smaller. It's big enough for two people to eat!

Gypsy's is a staple at Berkeley, and it's always wildly popular. There's indoor seating, but most of time you won't be able to find anywhere to sit down. Luckily, there are some tables and benches outside as well! They're open late, and with good, cheap food with large portions, I almost always drop by when I'm in the area. My favorite dish is the Godfather's Favorite, and it never disappoints. The food is a bit heavy, but worth every calorie!

Gypsy's offers solid pasta for an unbeatable price. If you're balling on a budget and have a craving for pasta, Gypsy's is the way to go. My favorite pasta there is the Gamberi e Capesante which is a linguine with creamy tomato sauce and hella shrimps and scallops. The amount of seafood they put on there for $16 (cash) is surprising. I always ask for extra pepper flakes on the side since I love my food spicy. They also serve bread and garlic confit with every pasta dish- it's okay. The service there is quick and efficient. The dining area is kinda packed, but there's outdoor seating as well. Make sure you bring cash because you'll get a mini discount! Overall, I wouldn't say this is the best pasta I've ever had, but it's good and mega value.

I've been here a couple times and its been pretty consistent in food and service everytime. I would recommend eating there while it's hot and fresh over takeout. With this spot being so close to campus, the restaurant is always lively and filled with students but don't let it deter you! Definitely a value place with one dish big enough to serve 2! I recently got the Gomberi e Capesante and was pleasantly surprised at how much seafood they gave for less than $17. If you're in the area and have a craving for a cheap and good eat, this should definitely be on your list :)

LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THESE BEAUTIES. Omg I have never seen such ginormous yet juicy and steamy calzones in my life. We chose the pesto pasta stuffed calzones and each one lasted us three meals!! Upon dissecting the top layer, the aroma of fresh pesto wafted up and the cheese melted beautifully onto the plate. Even the leftovers were delicious. It's also in such a prime spot of Berkeley; we saw many UCB students walk over for a quick bite before returning to campus. Plenty of seating space, cashier was very nice and explained the menu to us thoroughly.

Where have I been?! Quick service made to order pasta...umm yes please! Parking can be hard to find but worth it. Seating is limited but is an option. This place gets busy and it's worth it!
