Chez Panisse alum Charlie Hallowell's Pizzaiolo serves some of the most exciting food in Oakland and the best pizza in the country. The Telegraph Ave spot keeps its wood-fired pizzas and handmade pastas simple. A spot-on dinner includes rapini and house-made sausage pizza, rigatoni with pork ragu, and a house-made tonic cocktail. The huge back patio is particularly popular during summer movie nights.
