Great pizza! I built my own ham and pineapple pizza. Plenty of nice thin slices of ham and plenty of pineapple. I think, but not sure, they may make their own pizza sauce as it was delicious! Hubby had the crowd pleaser again another winner!! Nice chunks of sausage and mushrooms and thinly slices green pepper and black olives! We will visit again!!

The employee who answered the phone & the delivery driver were friendly. I really like that they have in-house delivery drivers! I've seen this place 1000 times but never tried it until now. I admittedly always assumed it was some health nut kinda place, but it really was just a good ol' classic, perfectly (not overly) greasy pie! A hungry man can get two BIG meals or three moderate meals from a medium. (Nice, thick & hearty crust!) The only thing is that it gets pretty soggy from those heat preserving bags they transport the pizza in. Don't be shy! Set that thang on your front seat and vent it for me real quick at stoplights! 'xD I'd rather it arrive warm or room temp even than piping hot & soggy. Oh, and the crowd pleaser had a little too many of those thick mushrooms for my taste. And olives lol. Toppings were fine otherwise. Great sausage!

Updating to 6 stars; came back and had pizza well done. Very good pasta. Had stuffed shells with pesto sauce, "crowd-pleaser" pizza, and flourless chocolate cake. Pizza had good flavor and the choco cake was very good. If ordering a pizza with several toppings, consider asking to make it well done or the crust in the middle may be underdone. Holding back 1 star as this was the case with my pizza. Nonetheless, I am definitely coming back here again. Update: Happy to share that the food is still the same - pizza well done is still excellent.

My wife and I come here on average of one or two times a month and neither of us have ever been dissapointed! Wait times are always good for the quality and size of the portions, staff is consistently friendly, and the atmosphere is always nice whether it is busy or not. I personally love their calzones and my wife loves their stuffed shells. Can be a bit pricey, but totally worth it for the experience 🙂❤️

Our first time at Frescos. The food was so good. Best Cesar salad that I've ever had. They make the dressing and croutons in house so I had to buy a pint of each. My husband said the pizza is in his top 10 of best pizzas he's ever had.
