    Finally made it in (with cash this time). Looks like and is a neighborhood Italian Deli/ grocery store / Pizza joint/ Gelato shop! Friendly staff and service is spot on! Had to decide what I wanted to try. Ordered the Italian Prosciutto "Sangwish" ordered the traditional hard roll crust. Did not disappoint. Next visit (With Cash) I'll try their Pizza selections. Mangia, Cheers & Nazdrowie!

    Love love love this place! The only thing I wish I could change is it being CASH ONLY because we hardly ever carry cash and we usually want all the things. We walked out today with two arancinis, a packet of 10 frozen meatballs, and a hearty beef lasagna. The server was nice and threw in some bread. Total with a small tip was $40. We did NOT get gelato or at least one slice of pizza but that's what we would have done if we had more cash. The staff is friendly. Be prepared. We went at 530 pm to beat the crowd but there was a good group of peeps who had the same idea. We enjoyed 2/3 of the lasagne when we got home after a quick reheat and supplement of some garlic bread. Tomorrow we'll have the arancinis before the steak I plan to cook up. BB will enjoy any leftovers for lunch later this week. Staff is friendly. Stop at the ATM so you can get all the things.

    Freddy's has been around since the late '60s, and the place is 2-fold; one side of the building is your typical Italian mart with meats, pastas, pies, and desserts, while the adjacent space is a 'dine-in' area. We came here for an early lunch, and we ordered: +a Suppli - a rice ball filled with spinach and cheese; this was a little too bland for me, and more rice-filled than the spinach and cheese +Gnocchi - ricotta cheese-filled gnocchi in a vodka sauce; while the gnocchi was pillowy, it was a bit overcooked, so it was too mushy; wasn't a fan of the vodka sauce +a slice of a a margherita (thick crust) - just too bread-y; this was just okay +and, a slice of a sausage (thick crust) - more on the saltier end due to the sausage; crust was just okay I did like the fact that they heat up items for you, and they do come out piping hot. Staff were pretty friendly and helpful, and they're pretty efficient. The place itself is cute, and I liked looking through their small market area. The place is definitely a popular spot, as people kept coming in to get food to go, get food to eat next door, etc. +friendly service +street parking available

    Very good and fulfilling pizza. I would definitely go back there. They got some other stuff too, that might be worth trying.

    I was in the area and needed my Freddies fix. The food is homemade and I have never been disappointed. My tip is to come early, parking and seating is limited.

    This place is the bomb. Everything is excellent. That's the one problem, you walk in and order right to left. I have missed so many things because I ordered so much already. Like the pizza it's far left. I never tried it. Freddy's is a hidden treasure. It might be in Cicero but it's a Chicagoland gem

    With real deli's Italian or otherwise you'll be hard pressed to find anywhere like Freddy's these days. Tucked away on a non-descript Cicero residential street corner Freddy's harkens back to the old days when men were men, sheep were sheep, and deli's were deli's. Everything about it is old school neighborhood deli. The ambience is s real and not manufactured. That's probably because the owners and employees most have of whom have been there for double digit years are real as they come. They scream customer service, neighborhood true and 'we take no bullshit'. They make it the real deal. I remember during covid their strict adherence to health rules for the safety of their employees and customers alike. The owner could come out and enforce the six people six foot apart rule with an iron fist! It shows they care. The care also shows their offerings. FRESH pastas and numerous other dishes like cutlets and Chicken Parmesan, sausage n peppers and homemade soups just to name a few set out in front of you and prepped with live. Even their namesake homemade pizza by the slice is exceptional. The dish's they offer would cost you a pretty penny elsewhere. Sure you can go get a few things for a few cents less in some other joint but bit will be nowhere near the quality Freddy's offers. Nowhere near! In the small grocery store shelves stocked with imported and homemade local Italian staples and delicacies you will find no where else. Fresh name brand quality deli meats and cheeses and bakery fresh breads like pepperoni bread and soft Italian loaves. Not to forget the variety of homemade sausages and hard salamis from Calabrese to other regional delicacies. After dinner in one of their two enclosed patio rooms one heated for chilly days and one screened in for warm summer breezes don't forget to try dessert. The gelato bar and pastry offerings and outta this world! All of this fits nicely into one room smaller than most Chicago 'frunch rooms'. Bring cash as wisely they are cash only. Every dime you spend will be well spent and I guarantee you WILL be back again! I'm not a side note a must try is their fresh mozzarella better than nonna can make. Don't miss out on this place it's worth the trip and the surprisingly small wait. They run a tight ship and get lunch goers in and out.

    Large portions, very affordable, nice staff. They also have a variety of Gelato that is very reasonably priced

    I love everything here. The pizza, the chicken, the arancini, the gelato, the Italian ice, and more. Try anything, you will love it.

    Lunch was delicious, and by far, the best gelato I have ever had! The staff was friendly as well and the prices were reasonable!

The service was great overall. Everyone was very nice and helpful. They have a special allergy kit that they will get if you have an allergy, and it prevents cross contamination. Unfortunately they had added an extra flavor without asking, and I didn't think to list that flavor as an allergy (I was more concerned about nuts), so they had to scrape off the ice cream. I'm not sure why they would do that-- their reasoning was that sometimes they recommend additional flavors, but I was surprised that they would add them without asking. The flavors were fresh and the rose shape was a very fun and cute idea. The seating area featured warm, relaxing colors and seemed like a nice place to sit. It was very busy, however.
