Frickiaccios

I really want to support local family run businesses but the food here was not good enough to make me return. The salad was perfectly fine, but the pizza bagel was chewy, with no crisp whatsoever, like it had been microwaved. The sauce was lukewarm, and the veggies just sat on top. The mushrooms had no flavor and the spinach was totally raw. (My mom did enjoy her Italian wedding soup.) The garlic bread pieces served on the side were chewy, not crisp. (Is everything here microwaved?) The interior made me sad. It looks like the dining hall of a senior citizen’s center. Not that there’s anything wrong with a senior citizen’s center, but it’s way to0 clinical and drab and decorated in a hodge-​podge manner to be a place I’d like to sit in again. The service was friendly.

This place is amazing. If you like fresh and flavor this place is for you. Went to a private party there. Can’t say enough about this place.

Stopped by this little hole in the wall for a pizza bagel today. I was expecting your normal pizza bagel, maybe a little better than average. Nope. Blew my mind. Soft and chewy dough, amazing flavors, and the perfect balance of sauce.
This is so getting added to my favorite local places.

My husband and I decided to try while we were babysitting the grandkids on a Friday night.
We ordered a large and they even had green olives which is a big plus as most pizza places don’t.
The pizza was exceptional– sauce and crust equally as good as one another and ratio of sauce to dough was perfect. Will definitely be going here again
My husband reported very friendly service, which was the icing on the cake.

Everything we’ve had at Frickaccio’s has been excellent. The pizza dough, the strombolis, pizza and made-​to-​order pasta dishes. Tonight the three of us shared 4 subs. Three would have been plenty, but we couldn’t narrow it down.
My favorite was the Chicago Beef. Very thinly sliced tender and flavorful beef on a fresh toasted roll, with a hot pickled garnish. The turkey, Italian and meatball subs were wonderful as well. There are a couple of subs we haven’t tried yet, but so far these are the best subs we’ve found in Cleveland.

Frickiaccios has a tender place in my heart; as a child I would go to the West Side market with my dad and he would often treat me to a pizza bagel from their stand. A pizza bagel is exactly how it sounds — pizza dough shaped like a bagel, smothered with sauce and cheese. Essentially a one-​serving pizza pastry. I can probably trace the origin of my love of pizza to the pizza bagel.
Now Frickiaccios has expanded with a storefront in Fairview. Of course they still have pizza bagels! The focus is on regular pizzas, though. It’s essentially a pizza place with deli sandwiches and salads. They have prepared foods also: Italian-​inspired soups, pizza dough, bake-​at-​home lasagna, pastas, pasta sauce. I frequently stop in for a quick lunch or to grab something to take home to the fam for dinner.
No seating — it’s all carry out and made to order. The also cater.

Same people at stand A8 at the West side market. Took over the traitorous pie place that used to be there, and this is SO much better. Pizza bagels. pizza to order or to take an bake. Subs, gelato, and so much more. Whoo to the Hoo!
