Heroic Italian Berkeley 2020 Kittredge Street, Berkeley, CA 94704

"Pretty mediocre and below average pasta for what you pay for. Waitress simply brought the food and walked away. No attention given to patrons after they order even though there were only two people in the restaurant."

"The waitress questioned my food and drink choices in a way that didn't feel comfortable or playful, and then didn't show up for over 20 minutes when I wanted to order a second drink. Then when asked to split the check they charged me $10 more than the other person. I was fine with it and didn't complain, but instead of saying "sorry" she said "it's just $5". Yeah, food was good, but not returning"

"We decided to check out Heroic Italian in downtown Berkeley, next to the library! The outdoor patio was so relaxing on a hot summer day. If you love Italian food as much as I do, y'all need to check out Heroic Italian! Everything was so fresh and light. It's simply delicioso! OMG! OMG! The OMG sandwich was light, airy, crispy, and delicious; while the Chicken Tetrazzini Rotini pasta was light, creamy, and tasty, it was perfect with the glass of white wine. I love me a good salad, and the California Caprese salad did NOT disappoint. Not only was it beautiful, it was so refreshingly delicious! I want one now. Lastly, the Calabrian Shrimp Roman Pizza was delicious. It was my first time having a shrimp pizza- it had the perfect balance of savory and tartness. Ps. There’s a parking lot next door, and it cost the same as the street parking meter."

"Great Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Berkeley. I was there with a large party and everyone was impressed by the quality of the dishes. The OMG sandwich was so good that I wanted to get another one for to go. We did not all get our dishes at the same time, but that’s perhaps a consequence of the online-only menu. I would much prefer the old fashioned personal ordering."

"Heroic Italian is located next to the Downtown Berkeley Library on Kittredge Street not far from BART. There is free 2 hour parking on the street, and there is a parking garage close by. It is located on the bottom corner of a five story with lots of windows so the restaurant is filled with natural light. There is a large patio outside, so you have the choice of eating inside or out. David, the owner is friendly and loves to share about his business!!! I had an OMG sandwich to go with an Italian Bio drink. I see why it is called OMG--it was very tasty made with fresh bread, Italian meats, smoked Mozzarella, and Roasted Artichoke Spread. Yum, yum!!! They have a large variety of Italian wines to choose from to go along with sandwiches, salads, pizzas, and pastas. This is a great place to come for a taste of Italy."
