Ordered almost $50 worth of food from Uber Eats. The scar face was okay. Tastes like pasta drenched in fattening sauce that doesn't add any substantial flavor other than gluttonous calories. The minestrone soup was very oily considering there's no meat and I found a random spaghetti noodle in it. The calzone was actually pretty good. read more

Great hideaway. A lil hole in the wall bar type spot just inside the restaurant!! Always friendly & lively place to grab a cold one. Pop in and have Estevan pour you a cold one the next time you're downtown. As for the food, it's a Valley staple!! When you've grown up eating DiCicco's Italian food, it becomes part of your comfort food repertoire!! read more

Had dinner at the W Shaw and from being seated and not seeing a waiter for 20 minute to finally getting our order, absolutely no service. Ordered tortellini alfredo and sauce was so watered down I needed a spoon instead of a fork. This restaurant has declined in everything. New menu now shows cash price and credit card price. Should have walked out as soon as this was seen. Totally Classless !! read more

9/21/23 Happy Thirsty Thursday! Getting lunch with wine included! Greeted upon entering and we went to the bar. Very nice bar! Great atmosphere! Music playing! Drinks to start! I had Pinot Noir & mother had a Bloody Mary. Cheers! Great wine and mother loved her Bloody Mary! Veggie chicken calzone ordered too, with side salads. Salads brought shortly later! Delicious! Tasty & fresh with great balsamic garlic vinaigrette dressing! Mother said her salad was great too! Fresh, delicious bread included as well! The bartender was great too! Easy to talk to, funny & welcoming! Calzones came shortly later & they came split for us! Thank you! Calzone half was fresh & delicious! Really great! Tasty sauce with it too! Mother said hers was great as well! Great service, drinks & lunch! Highly recommended! read more

Service is horrible! If Im making modifications to my food it should be respected and not sound annoyed when im asking question over the phone! No manager on site and just one person working ? Sounds very weird! Last time I order from this location!! Get better workers read more

When I moved to Downtown Fresno in 2021, DiCicco's was the go to place for Friday pizza night. I'm sad to say that my last 3 experiences have not been great at all. The pizza's have not been cooked all the way, not even hot a couple of times. The quality has gone completely downhill, some areas of the pizza are just crust, no sauce, no toppings, nothing. My last visit there, the restaurant was completely empty at 5pm. I'm beginning to see why. I will not be spending another penny at this establishment. read more

Best happy hour and food in the bar. The. Best pizza ever. They also have homemade ranch which is so good. Great apps and services.

Food was served promptly and was delicious!!!!! Waitress was prompt and very helpful . The ambience was very Italian

As I'm driving out of the parking lot (sitting passenger) I write this. My step daughter turned 21 so this was her bday request. Not to many positive reviews so I prepared for mine!! Menu options were so many to a choose from so I did the combo (lasagna, spaghetti & raviolis) with a side salad. The Mr got broccoli, chicken Fettuccine with added mushrooms. Jalapeño poppers on the side for appetizer (happy hour like $4) We sat in the bar so our waitress/bartender was perfect. She was very verbal and even brought a slice of cake without requesting and held the lighter (no candle) while we all sang her HAPPY BDAY!!! food was good, No long wait beers were offered before we emptied. Touch tunes jukebox available and friendly customers (might be regulars) I'm one to be quick to complain but Tonight was the first of many!! Happy 21st birthday Ash we you!! To many many more babe!! read more

Service over the phone conservative, they asked plenty of questions about their soups in a reasonable time.

DiCicco's is a mainstay of Italian dining in the Fresno area. I try to go buy for lunch a couple of times per month except for Lent when I go every Friday as they have offer pasta with marinara as a change of pace from the usual meatless Fridays! The rigatoni is always on point! read more

So yummy I don't understand the lower reviews. I'm from LA and was lucky enough to stay near this place. Ordered the Don with chicken Parmesan and I can't believe how delicious it it Better than Michelli's and costs a third of the price. Goooood job you guys. Thank you for leaving a good impression on my stay in Fresno. read more

Waitress was nice, but food was underwhelming. My husband said the sauce tasted artificial. The plates were swimming in sauce. Pizza dough undercooked. I hate leaving negative reviews, but honestly would not come back. read more

Came here for lunch with the coworkers and as we got seated, took the waitress a couple minutes to come take our drink orders. After coming back to the table to give us our waters, the waitress left. As we were waiting for her to return, we notice she was helping the table behind us that arrive mins after us by bringing out their drinks without taking their drink orders along with the basket of bread and automatically ignored our tables and started taking their food orders as if our table was not ready. My coworkers and I were confused because they came after us, but by the way how the waitress spoke with the customers and the orders were being taken, I'm sure they're returning customers. After she was done taking their orders we told her we were ready and she gave us a dirty look and just said "uh I'll be back to take your orders and bring you your basket of bread". My coworkers and I just got up and left. Customer service needs to be improved. Just because she's the only waitress and restaurant was not even busy, she should had never ignored our table. She never came back to ask if we were ready. Just assume we weren't. First time at this restaurant and never going back. read more

Decided to give them another try. They said 45 minutes for delivery: took 1 hour 15 minutes and they delivered the wrong food and charged us for incorrect order. Said food would be delivered again in 45 minutes. Been 2.5 hours and still sitting her hungry. No apologies and no one at the restaurant seems to care. If I was choosing a place to get delivery I'd never order from here. read more

I have been coming to this restaurant for years, but recently, I'm not sure if it's new management you no longer are able to add an extra loaf of bread to your order. I recently ordered and I purchased an extra loaf of bread and about 15 minutes later they came back to return my money because they told me they are unable to do this. The customer service was extremely rude and not welcoming at all. read more

It was my birthday last week. The manager said they was out of cheesecake told me to come back this week he's got me.. and he'd give an Italian sausage and 2 meatballs with a side of Alfredo. Today I showed up and he said he can't do nothing for me but give me a slice of bread with a candle. But I'll keep coming back for the Arabian princess best bartender in fresno read more

Ordered this as delivery from DoorDash. Loved that they had gluten free options and plenty of items to choose from. Was a little shocked that even though it was only 10min from our location it was going to take an hour before the food would be ready... once the food was ready delivery was very fast which I attribute to DoorDash. Upon opening I noticed for to-go orders you have to request any utensils and napkins-these don't come standard. Ordered a large salad and order was missing the dressing. Also, only four tiny packets of butter for the 6 sets of bread for our meals. The gluten free noodles didn't disappoint. We ordered lasagne, broccoli chicken fettuccine Alfredo, spaghetti and meatballs, extra set of meatballs (small not worth it as a side), and ravioli. Most of the portions were good. And taste was good. Overall would order again knowing to check for the missing things or extra items needed. read more

My service dog and I went inside to order this restaurant on December 20th 2024 at approximately 4 pm to order a take out order of Scarface and cheese bread. When I went in they were cordial and took my order right away and I went outside to wait when we went in they stated that dogs were not allowed my dog is a service dog that is clearly labeled on her harness. They then were rude and told me to wait on the wood bench. So after an additional 10 minutes or so we took the order home. The Scarface was tasty but the cheese bread was 2 slices of sourdough sandwich bread toasted with a little burnt with a slice of cheese layed on it. No good my niece who is 5 could prepare that and at 8 dollars it's almost criminal. I will never go back. read more

Wow!!!!! I ordered via UberEats delivery today, and it was a feast!!!!!! I wanted to order enough to have leftovers for tomorrow, as I am an over the road (OTR) truck driver and want to take some with me for tomorrow night's dinner, so I ordered a little extra, but little did I know that it was a lot extra!!!!! LOL there is no doubt in my mind that for everything that I ordered, three or four people could easily feast on this order!!!!!! Seriously!!!!! read more

These guys make a good pizza!! My favorite is simple. Pepperoni, onion extra cheese. Add a side of meatballs and.... yes!!

This is the best DiCiccos location in Fresno. Definitely old school but the lasagna does not disappoint.

Absolutely love this restaurant! Jan is the best server in the world! She always takes such great care of us! The pizza is excellent! I had the tortellini with the orange sauce! It was wonderful! I also love the atmosphere! This place is what you expect an Italian restaurant to look like - Red and white checked tablecloths, grape vines on the ceiling, stained glass, twinkling lights! I try to come here every time I'm in Fresno! read more

Downtown location is the best. Great service and delicious food. The portions were worth the price. I highly encourage everyone to step out of there comfort zone and head downtown. You won't be disappointed. read more

Chicken parmigiana hits the spot every time. The neighborhood is a little rough, but the food is worth the drive down there.

My worst dining experience EVER! My water glass was MOLDY.....on the inside!! The staff did not seem to care. It seemed to be a normal experience, not an exception. Completely GROSS and DISGUSTING! I can't even begin to imagine how filthy the kitchen is! Save yourself! Don't eat here!! read more

Server was rude. Tall older lady short blonde hair. I don't understand the need to be rude for no reason when we were very polite to you. read more

Favorites: Scarface (modified), pizza, meatballs. Scarface with a pesto cream sauce (instead of just cream sauce), and I also add sausage for a couple bucks. Always delicious and it's literally two meals. Pizza is a thinner crust with great flavor. Instead of a side of ranch, I get a side of their marinara sauce for dipping, which is absolutely amazing! The sauce is where it's at. The small size is also very generous - can easily feed two people. Another great option is their meatballs and peppers entree. It never fails! Best meatballs in town. Smothered in cheese takes it to another level! Finally, who doesn't love the bread they give you with every meal? This bread is addicting and they always include generous portions in their to-go bags. FYI I've been coming to this location for years, despite some bad customer service experiences, which is why I ding it by a star. This location can be hit and miss with quality and service, but things seem to have gotten better over the past year. Fingers crossed the service continues to go up and from here. read more

At Chicos and I ordered a loaf of bread to go to wait at least 20 minutes, cause the lady that was working was the only one there which I agreed to she came up and told me like 15 minutes later after another waitress walked in and said no we cannot sell you a loaf of bread we're sorry this is not good for business and I have been coming to this place for years and I have to say that I'm not gonna be coming here or ordering any more food from this Chicos lately the food has been not that great but the service is terrible read more

Don't come this place. Service is not good they charged us a 4% extra fee for just using a card. this wouldn't have been a huge problem but they did not tell us before and only told us as they handed us the bill. read more

The food tastes good and all but the problem is the fact that they always stack all these plates on top of each other knowing they have a layer of cheese on top. So when I get home to eat all the damn cheese is stuck to the lid. I'd rather pay for extra bags and have my items bagged individually than to come home to this shit every time I order take out from this place. read more

I don't know why it's taken me so long to write a review. I've been enjoying the food here since the 1970s (I think my family may actually have sold them the location back in the 50s--don't hold me to that; I'm going by a really old memory from when I was a kid). I'll start with the bread--always the best: Delightfully fresh, soft and chewy rather than crunchy. My bad teeth appreciate that. The food? Let's start with the salad. I can't do better than quote another review: "The salad always amuses me. It's a bowl of iceburg lettuce with 1/2 of a slice of salami on top, one small cube of cheese, and one olive. Large servings though, so if you are hungry, this is a good choice." Basically true, lol, but filling. The best, of course, is the main fare. This place has been around almost 70 years and there's a reason. Their Italian food is the best in town. (I seem to recall rumors there were some really interesting people who'd come all the way to Fresno just for the food...) Frequently imitated. Never duplicated even by some other DiCiccos. My favorites? Manicotti. Baked lasagna. The Scarface (love them 'shrooms). The ravioli is on the basic side but I can't think of anyone's ravioli that excites me. One fantastic side I always enjoyed--that can fill you up on its own: The garlic cheese bread. Yummy! Really all you need sometimes! The pizza? It's ok but traditional and not as stand-out compared to some more modern eateries, perhaps, but I focus on the main dishes rather than pizza. I've certainly had it many times just the same. Never tried a steak but I've seen it walk by and it looks good. If you've never tried the original but know the other locations, give the original a try to see where it all began. read more

Absolutely love this location. Their food is delicious. The staff is very nice and friendly accommodating overall 10 out of 10.

Really nice interior. The food is great, service is friendly. I had the chicken Parmigiana sandwich with fries. It's super heavy but delicious. You'll like have leftovers. read more

What else is there to say about this particular DiCicco's except it is an amazing place to eat. My wife and have eaten here twice and it's been amazing both times. We were up in the air about what to eat and DiCicco's just sounded good. Now we live in Hanford so driving to DiCicco's in Fresno isn't just around the corner. But driving to another town for great food is something we do often. This particular location is the original DiCicco's just north of downtown Fresno. It looks old world as you walk up to the restaurant. When you walk in it's like you're in a Goodfellas movie. It's like a time warp. Hate to keep using the term old world. But it's pretty dated. Which I love. We have always been warmly greeted and seated promptly. The menu selection is just amazing. I'm huge on lasagna. But this time I wanted something different. I had to think outside the box. So I went with the chicken florentine dinner with rigatoni pasta and meat sauce. It's kinda hilarious because I had just watched a Bronx Tale earlier in the day. So I had visions of mobsters eating Italian food. LOL. My wife had the chicken alfredo special. Both meals come with a great salad and of course they give you warm Italian bread with butter. The food arrived pretty fast and I was in heaven. Bcz that chicken florentine was amazing. With the spinach and cheese. Plus the rigatoni was just amazing! The dish my wife had was equally as good. Bottom line is this an amazing establishment and we have become regulars! If you want great Italian food. This is a must! read more

Whenever we are in Fresno we eat here. We love this place! Yesterday 7/26/22 we stopped in for lunch and ate in the bar area. Rose was our server and she made our lunch experience top notch! She is such a sweetheart. Go to downtown DiCicco's for the best Italian food in the Valley. read more
