Berkeley pizzeria ranked top in country by Yelp

A Bay Area pizzeria was named No. 1 on Yelp's "100 Places for Pizza" list. 

Berkeley beat out New York, Chicago and Detroit, with The Cheese Board Collective getting the highest reviews on the site.

The beloved vegetarian pizzeria at 1512 Shattuck Ave. offers one option a day.

Friday's pizza option is crushed tomato, onion, mozzarella, toasted garlic, Parmesan, garlic olive oil, and Italian parsley.

Yelpers call it "legendary," "The best pizza in the whole universe" and say the green sauce is "addicting."

But if you want to see what 5,000 reviewers are talking about, Cheese Board plays hard to get -- they're only open Thursday to Saturday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
