Why are we sleeping on Fresco's? It's everything I want a pizza pie to be, but the place is always pretty empty *Hot* *Fast* *Loaded with toppings* *Delicious* What more can you ask for? Our herbivore/ veggie 12" pizza (sub pineapple for zucchini because I'm wild like that) was more than enough for myself and my wife to have a nice quick weeknight dinner. It was tasty and fresh and had plenty of fresh veggies. The side of ranch was the cherry on top. We'll be back! read more

This was my first time visiting Fresco. I ordered the Margherita Fresco but it's really just an average cheese pizza. A true margherita pizza uses thin dough, creamy buffalo or cow mozzarella, fresh basil leaves, and sauce all from an oven that gets hot enough -- at least 800 degrees -- to do more than toasting. Fresco's take is a thick chewy crust, unusually chewy cow mozzarella, a lot of garlic (maybe powder?), and no basil leaves heated in an oven that doesn't get hot enough to char the crust underside properly and meld the flavors together. Look, if judged honestly as what it really is, cheese pizza, it's okay. I haven't tried anything else on the menu so my review is based on the margherita pizza only. From the other ratings, people are obviously pleased so don't let my review discourage you from trying Fresco yourself. read more

RIGHT next to Famous Dave's BBQ. Park in back, decent sized lot. Ambiance/Cleanliness-Branding is a bit weak(generic brown pizza box, really?). Interior is decent, liking the red stools. A little dark. Clean enough. 4 stars Service-they open at 11. called at 1102. They picked up quickly. Person on phone was pro. Pizza was done 5 minutes after I arrived to pick up. Cashier was polite. No complaints. 4 stars Food-This crust is a work of art. Closest I have ever had to NYC style outside NYC. Its on the spendy side for sure...but I got the pizza fold no problem. That right there makes it worth it. Mine was the meat pizza. Subtle sauce, but the flavor is there. Impeccable toppings. NOT too greasy, considering it's a meat pie, this alone is amazing. Parm/peppers in the box. No asking. One of the top 3 pizzas in Tucson thus far. 5 stars read more

Back again and wow am I pleased I got the vegan veggie pizza Detroit style! ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. also huge. Got this for 2 people and we both had lunch the next day. The mushrooms on the veggie pizza are so perfect. Ordered online and was done quickly for pickup. I wish they had a vegan protein though. I added some impossible meatballs I had in the freezer. A great addition read more

First time trying this pizza joint and it was decent. We made our on pizza. Got a large pizza and after few toppings it was closed to $42. The pizza lacked sauce but had good flavor. I will admit the portobello mushrooms were so good. Would have loved just pizza with that. We got a small salad and it was mid. Service was slow but they gave us free fountain drinks while we waited. The ambiance was casual. Near college campus so popular among students. read more

Super good pizza and the best salads!!!! Best part of my week! Davie is the best cook;)

The Gluten free pizza here is so delicious you have to trust me. I have been on a gluten free diet for 6 years and I have painfully swallowed my sadness when any of my friends have had gluten. I thought there was no hope for me to try delicious pizza again until I found this restaurant. Servers are lovely but seriously if you want gluten free pizza you have to try this restaurant. read more

Service was amazing. I think the blonde woman at the front's name was Taylor. Very sweet and understanding. For $25 I did the Sonoran restaurant week menu. I chose, garlic knots, spaghetti and meatballs and tiramisu. I came with a friend who got Cesar salad as the starter, Alfredo and cheesecake. The deal came with a glass of wine! I chose white and my friend red. Both were decent. Olive Garden has more flavor than this. There was zero detectable spice or seasoning in the spaghetti sauce which tastes identical to the marinara that came with the knots. BLAND! Meatball also bland and too much breading. You can see in the picture there are no seasonings in the sauce. I switched out the spaghetti for Alfredo and it was also bland. Dumping salt and Parmesan did not help at ALL. The chicken ($3.50 up charge) was oddly gamey and also had no flavor. Garlic knots terrible. Also very bland and doughy. Could not taste anything but bread and a hint of butter. Tiramisu was an abomination. They have done their own rendition and instead of lady fingers have replaced it with a dense heavy cake. It was very very boozy. Mascarpone wasn't light and airy, it was thick and dense like cheese cake. There are much much better offerings for Sonoran restaurant week and I would not come back. The food is bland and extremely light on any flavor besides tomatoes and undercooked pasta. read more

I placed an order for carry out and it was done well within the quoted time. Everything was packaged up with a lot of care which is appreciated. I was disappointed to see how small the Caesar salad was for $9. However the homemade dressing and croutons definitely elevated the salad. I also got the meatballs ricotta and that dish blew my mind. It's easily one of my new favorite Italian dishes in town. I think the ricotta is homemade, it's so creamy, and the meatballs and sauce are packed with flavor. I loved every bite. I'll be back for that dish for sure. read more

Stopped by Fresco Pizzeria and had a great experience! Mileenha was super friendly and welcoming, which made a great first impression. I ordered a personal pizza with pepperoni and black olives -- it was cooked to perfection with plenty of toppings and great flavor in every bite. I also really appreciated being sent a birthday discount email -- such a nice touch that made the visit even better. Overall, great service, tasty pizza, and a spot I'd definitely come back to! read more

Stopped in for a weeknight dinner- place was quiet and a few groups were dining. I had a gluten free pizza and glass of red blend, while my dining companion had a pepperoni Stromboli and lager. It's a casual place where you order at the counter and seat yourselves. Food didn't take too long to arrive, and it was piping hot and gorgeous. Very flavorful- took half my pizza home for tomorrow and I'm looking forward to those leftovers. read more

Oooo this place is dangerously good it'll be hard for me to not get a pizza every week. Plus many vegan options!! I got the vegan veggie pizza 12" and vegan garlic bread. The marina that came with the bread was some of the best I had I had to dip my pizza in it haha and the bread was crispy but not too hard. The pizza was soft and thick (I'm not a thin crust fan so I loved this), and lots of veggies. Everything was $32 pre tip but the pizza was very filling because of the thick dough so this last me almost 3 meals. The only thing I wished was different was the vegan cheese having more flavor (I've eaten a lot of MOD pizza just because I like the dairy free cheese flavor) but that really wasn't an issue I just sprinkled some nutritional yeast on it when I got home and it was perfect. The place was very clean and had good music. We had a group of around 8 and came a little close to closing time without realizing it but the server was very nice about it and the food still came out quick and well done. read more

A great menu and quality ingredients can be found at Fresco, but the execution could be better. What I liked: A wide variety of doughy goodness to choose from. If you don't want a regular pizza, you can get a Detroit style pie, or even a stromboli! The topping selection is top-notch as well--I opted to get one with red sauce, prosciutto, and arugula, and a tasty caesar salad on the side. What I didn't like: Although the flavors were phenomenal, I just didn't think it was made too well. The crust was way, way too thick at the edges, and the pizza retained too much moisture, so the bottom of every slice was kinda wet. It wasn't everything I'd hoped for, but I do want to try this place again because I think there's some real potential here! read more

As a native New Yorker and Brooklynite, that has easily eaten his weight in pizza, Fresco Pizzaria served up The Finest Ive ever had. The crust had a thin crisp shell, and an almost impossibly weightless body that every pizza maker strives for. We ordered toppings of anchovie, red onion and mushrooms. They're using spoon sized cubes of portobello to retain the natural flavor and cooked to perfection. Service was 2nd to none. Perfect ambience. If I could give this place six stars I would. Bon apetit! read more

The chicken marsala can be really good... when it's made correctly. I've ordered it for takeout many times and there's about a 50/50 chance of the mushrooms being left out of the dish. Last night's order was missing the mushrooms and the marsala sauce was way different from how it usually is. The sauce was really light and just didn't have that delicious marsala flavor. Feels like a ripoff for $22. For the chicken, it seems like they use bromelain or some other meat tenderizer on it. It's good when the food is fresh, but things start to get weird if you have leftovers. read more

The pizza is always as fast as quoted or faster, and very good. They have their own delivery drivers which adds to the speed. The pasta is better at the restaurant but still travels well with delivery. read more

I paid $34.78 for some spaghetti and meatballs. I asked for an extra order of meatballs. I didn't get them. The extra order of garlic bread was all dry. I threw away my money. When I called to complain, the girl yelled out, "You don't have to yell at me!" It was waste of money! read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch after a movie at the Loft theater. Pretty casual place with fresh pasta and pizza dishes. You order at the counter before grabbing a table. All of the staff was very nice and service was fast. Some of the pasta is made in house. I ordered a 1/2 portion house salad. It's an enormous dish with fresh salad; I got it with ranch dressing which was served on the side. Just amazing. Beef cannelloni is so delicious. The sauce is just perfect flavor, baked with a perfect amount of cheese on top. Their roasted veggies are absolutely delicious. I don't know how I never knew about this place. The server said they have been open for about 10 years. Will definitely go back to try their pizza read more

I've been to Fresco a couple of times before and the pizza was ok. Some friends wanted to eat there tonight and the pizza was fantastic. I ordered the white pizza and the toppings were artichoke, roasted garlic , prosciutto and lots of cheese. The crust was crisp and soft with plenty of toppings. Service was great and they checked on us several times. It was busy for Sunday night. It was so good I went back the next day and ordered to sane pizza to go. read more

Popped in on 1/31/24 to grab one of their meatball subs with a friend (after boosting their expectations for it) and was treated to disappointing surprise. While Fresco's prices have inched up over the past year (twice I think) that is largely to be expected during an 8+ percent inflation rate. But the disappointment was multi-fold. The sub roll shrank by 2 inches (not sure how they can call it a footlong anymore). The bread was also less chewy and less crunchy, despite being baked (a necessity for any real meatball sub). And... because the roll shrank there was only room for 5! meatballs (see pic). For years we've enjoyed a true footlong with six large meatballs but now it's not even 10" and $15. Ugh... et tu Fresco?? The sauce/cheese/seasonings are all still great. Bring back "the original" Matt! read more

Visiting from from Las Vegas we are accustomed to pizza being delivered to our front door 24 hours a day. Unfortunately neither myself or my husband want to pay a $10 service fee because we can't get our lazy butt up and go get pizza that's 3 miles away. We called about 10 locations that were within a 5 mile radius of us and 99% of them only deliver though postmates or grubhub. Finally, when we were about to give up on pizza altogether we happened upon Fresco Pizzeria. There was a minimum charge for purchase to have them deliver to us but isn't it better to have $10 more of food than pay it in a service fee? I choose food...every time. I believe I spoke to Nick, he was very friendly and understanding. I grumbled about my delivery complaints and he explained how they only do their own deliveries. Sweet! We ordered The White Pie and garlic bread with pesto and mozzarella. The food arrived quickly, about 45 minutes later, and the delivery driver was so very nice. Really, this place hires some great people. Once inside I couldn't wait to open the boxes. They were still perfectly warm and the cheese was still gooey and perfect. (See pictures) I quickly grabbed a pic (of course) then a slice and my knees almost buckled from the deliciousness. You can really taste that everything is made fresh and from scratch. The White pie has EVOO, artichoke hearts, mozzarella, prosciutto, Parmesan, garlic, and herbs. It is the perfect pizza pie for those wanting to take a break from the red sauce. It was not dry and the crust was even delicious. The next amazing thing was the garlic bread which we added pesto and mozzarella to. If you have a chance, and you're a cheesy pesto fan, do this! The combination of garlic, pesto, butter, and gooey cheesy goodness was almost too much to take. When we were done we were already looking forward to our next trip to try some more items of the Fresco Pizzeria menu! Just writing this review I'm wondering what my minimum order is to have them deliver to Las Vegas... Maybe it's time you expanded Fresco! If you're on the fence about a place to try, this place is the one. No fancy gimmicks just great fresh traditional Italian food. Now I'm hungry. read more

AMAZING customer service!!! I ordered the 10inch jerk chicken and sausage. It was delicious the crust had an extra crunch but also had a great chew to it. The jerk chicken had a beautiful essence of jerk spices and had a nice punch to it. I also ordered the antipasto salad and that was a meal in itself! Huge pepperoni nice smoked ham and I added some extra jerk chicken. The place is a chill spot playing some classic rock some blues. Love the atmosphere of this place. read more

Good food with lots to choose from. Easy to order. Ordered food to go and take back to hotel.

The pasta wasn't cooked. It was horrible. So disappointing. And we actually ordered linguine pasta but we were given penne pasta instead.

After seeing a review and photos of the garlic bread and salad from FP on my "Keep Local Alive- Tucson" group on Facebook, I knew that I had to check it out. We ordered two Caesar Salads and Garlic Bread online and then I picked it up in-store. The gal that helped me was really nice, and I loved that they separated the hot from cold items. The food was delicious. The salad lettuce was crisp and fresh. I look forward to going back and checking out more of their menu. read more
