this is our favorite home style italian place in town! the staff always treats us right, the food is always great! i don't think I've ever had a bad meal consistent and filling not to mention the super yummy bread. i rotate from cannelloni, scarface and ravioli with a nice caesar salad side meatballs, lots of bread and a nice glass of pinot or a craft cocktail. Cant go wrong here! I've never ordered take out and haven't tried the pizza yet. give it a try read more

Let's just say the service and food are not the DiCicco's standard!! Our power was out last night and we had to order food since we couldn't cook. DiCiccos was are first thought (well Me & Ed's was my sons ) they said it's be an hour......2.5 hrs later after 2 phone calls (kid were getting restless and grownups hangry) no sorry just excuses.....and to top it off the food was cold!!! And it tasted awful!!!! Someone must have dropped a whole container of salt in the sauce which made inedible!!! My dogs wouldn't even it and they love nasty cat food!! This is not the DiCiccos I grew up eating!!! Never again from Old Town!! Something is definitely wrong there!!! read more

They have great comedy shows here every Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. Food's not bad either. read more

Scarface pasta is a MUSTTTT !!!!! Definitely definitely definitely satisfied staff was excellent and food was nice and hot.

They are a franchise so not all are run the same way. Service is very good. Love that they have live music on occasion with an area to dance. Menu is limited. read more

The food was ok but the service was the worst ever! We went there in the afternoon! The waiter gave us the wrong sodas, couldn't remember what we ordered, was without a refill for ten minutes and the place wasn't crowded!! Where they got this waiter from I will never understand. This was the worst waiter ever in all the years I've been going to restaurants! Won't be returning!!! read more

I am a professional friendly and responsible urban nationally person who attended an awesome comedy show. But the Dicicco staff made me feel unwelcome by making me wait to take my order while other "people" got serviced. One staff female member followed me into the bathroom. I will not return or recommend this location. I wanted to enjoy myself and left feeling profiled. read more

Absolutely an amazing place to go. The waitstaff and bartenders are all amazing, the food is great, and the comedy scene here is growing so fast! You cant find a better place to see some up and coming local comics perform, or catch headliners from all over the state. You'd be a fool to miss out on this place! read more

Wanted some good Italian food, ordered for carry out. Got home, my husband was very disappointed with the lack of meat in his calzone.

Came here twice for Paint Nite--location for the space is the back area by the Bar (separate room/area from the actual restaurant). ONLY REVIEW FOR BAR AREA. Let's just say I wouldn't come to this restaurant on my own accord if it were not for Paint Nite hosting events here. Two times here for Paint Nite, pretty terrible service from the Bar area. It wasn't that busy but for some reason, the bartender and one waitress had difficulty handling the "influx" of customers from Paint Nite. We just ordered 1 glass of red wine and a bruschetta...and it took over 30 minutes for us to get our order. I supposed having 20 people at the bar isn't usual for this place since they couldn't get their service together for having a 1/3 full house.. When we got the wine glass, it was DIRTY with residual LIPSTICK from a previous customer....... either the bar and restaurant don't clean their glasses or they do an absolutely terrible job of cleaning their glassware. Either way, it was disgusting and I wish I would have taken a photo of the glass... next, when we got the bruschetta, it was basically just 1/4 sliced half of a baguette drenched in olive oil, garlic, and diced tomatoes. Lame--wouldn't expect that to take an empty restaurant 30 minutes to prepare. When we were leaving the event and closing out our tab, the waitress (1) overcharged us for the happy hour price and (2) gave us back incorrect change 2x from a tab of $7.41 when we gave her a $20..... All in all, I wouldn't come here to the bar or restaurant given the level of service (or I guess to be more accurate, lack of service). I wouldn't want to have to wait 2 hours just for an entry on a slow night. Would come for Paint Nite again, but not for this restaurant. read more

On April 30, 2022 it was a beautiful Wednesday afternoon! My daughter and walked into DiCicco's downtown Clovis. We were looking for a place to relax and most of all enjoy sone delicious Italian food. As we walked in a beautiful girl welcomed us! Her name was Juliette! She was amazing, she seated us and offered us our menus... but it did not end there! ....Not only go over menu with us, but made some wonderful recommendations of starters and dishes. ... then told us about comedy night , painting night and gave us the 411 on the Clovis Rodeo and weeklong activities! To the owner and managers of Downtown Clovis Diciccos! .....Juliette is a huge asset to your establishment, We will be attending Comedy Night,Paint night and happy hour due to this wonderful Little girl! She would be amazing at Cork and Bottle down the way where my daughter Stevi and I also frequent often and enjoy wine tasting! Especially the events... My mouth still waters when I crave that wonderful succulent lamb chop and your wonderful wines! Thank you read more

Hair in my (unpleasant) salad, no knives and forks despite checking specially, greasy and unpleasant food. But very lovely hostess.

Omfg, so good. So tasty. Fast service using door dash, got the order perfect. I should of taken pictures, but couldn't stop eating.HaHaHa., We had lasagna, and cheese bread, with primavera. Let's just give them a thumbs up, and 5 stars. read more

I saw the comment about Steve the bartender on someone's visit on April 8, 2022. I was also in the lounge area on that day, I was greeted immediately by Steve, he was very attentive and personable. Drinks were brought out quickly as was the food I ordered. I haven't been to this location in over two years and will definitely start coming in often because of the great service I received from Steve. read more

Basic italian food, not very impressed. Same red sayce used for everything, kindof slow service for a slow night. I was disappointed when i ordered a pizza to go they got the order wrong but i didnt know until i got home. We were there for paint night and i had more fun painting than enjoying the food. My hawaiian pizza was not bad, tough crust, moms chicken marasala was sub par. I guess if your in the mood for cheap italian come here but i would rather pay more and go somewhere else like Annex kitchen or Revs just across the street. read more

Dinner fiasco with our four grandchildren! Waited over an hour and 40 minutes for our food. When it finally came the pasta had no flavor, the sandwiches were as hard as a rock and we had to use a pick and a chisel to get through the sandwich bread. It was completely disappointing since we eat at DiCicco's in Oakhurst often and their food and service is fantastic. Don't waste your time here, go some place else in Old Town. read more

Only time I travel that far is to see Eric Schwartz...and it's worth the drive!!!! Love that Eric Schwartz performs here twice a year!!!

Had an amazing pizza from the Shaw/First location last week so we couldn't wait to try it again closer to home. HUGE disappointment - the crust was like cracker bread - dry, thin and tasteless. Can't believe such a big difference between locations. Avoid the pizza here! read more

DiCicco's Old Town Clovis - Combination pizza dried out crust - Italian Near Me - Clovis, California

All I can say is I've been eating at DiCicco's for almost as long as I could walk and have never eaten a worse meal than I did today at the Clovis location. I ordered the Classic combination which was $13.99, not cheap. It was in a container about 2" by 4 ". Pretty pricy for such a small amount of food. I also ordered the DiCicco's special Calzone, $14.99, which was so rubbery and tough, I'm sure it was just reheated and not made fresh. The only good thing was their bread. After I dropped an $8 tip in their tip jar, the waiter informed me that he added a extra half loaf of French bread in my takeout order. When I got home I saw a bag full of grease and opened it to find the extra half loaf of bread. Go figure. Another place that use to be so good, that I'll never go to again. read more

Late food! Only part of order in the bags. And still missing a full item that the restaurant did not follow up to inform me would be getting delivered. I had to call the restaurant to confirm my missing spaghetti would in fact be delivered after I called them to inform them that I never received my missing items. I will never order from here again and you shouldn't either. read more

I ordered for pick up 2 meatball sandwiches with fries on 5/4. The meatball sandwich was dry with little sauce and the fries were not golden brown. I threw away half the fries and sandwich it wasn't even worth finishing. We were both disappointed. Next time I would request extra sauce and hope they cook the fries longer. read more

We have been coming here for decades, but more infrequently in the past few years. Every time we are reminded why we want to stop coming but forget in the interim. Today will be our last. To start- we were told that there would be a 15 min wait in the cold and drafty entry way although there were several tables open. We are now over an hour into our stay and still haven't had our food. In addition- it still cold and drafty in the dining room. Last straw is that they switched to Coke from Pepsi. In all honesty- they made that switch years ago which is one of the reasons why we stopped coming as frequently. Update- just was told that I could only get a half-order of lobster ravioli and said I would need to choose another dish after we have been waiting all this time... at least they are comping the half-order. Update: Appreciate the reply from owner. I love and respect the Dicicco family restaurant/franchise. It is unfortunate how certain employees can tarnish a reputation- and often times it is an average/less-than-average server, hostess, or cook staff. We have been coming back intermittently but have been disappointed in the service almost every time. I guess we are either just unlucky in timing of our visits, too picky, or the service has actually declined in the past 10 yrs or so. read more

A dozen of us went there for dinner after our daughters softball tournament. Service was World Class and food was outstanding. Egg Parmesan was great! Food was enjoyed by everyone in our group. Our server Kathryn was the type of person every restaurant needs. She was knowledge, experienced, provided superior service with a great personality. read more

I don't think you can find a better calzone in town! If you do let me know, but I'll probably put money on DiCicco's being better. Dine in or delivery, always a pleasant experience. Once our pizza for the kids was forgotten by the Uber eats driver and the manager did not hesitate to send their own driver with our pizza, and comp our next one! It was also a great way to find out they offer delivery as well! I highly recommend it! They also have "A Slice of Comedy" every Saturday night hosted by Danny Minch. I have been 3 times and laughed every time! read more

We ordered delivery; a Calzone and a Pizza. My son took a bite of the Calzone and threw-up. I thought he was being outrageous, so I took a bite and I threw-up. I spent 10 mins in the restroom brushing my teeth to get the taste out of my mouth. It was completely disgusting with an awful rancid and putrid taste. We dumped the calzone in the trash can and opened up the pizza. The pizza looked good but was melted into a plastic sheet of film inside the box. I'm not sure what the plastic was doing inside the pizza box but we had to throw 25% of the pizza out. It was just melted to the crust of the pizza. The whole thing was $55 worth of disgusting. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU STEERING CLEAR OF THIS PLACE. read more

I am sad to say that our meal was NOT what we had hoped for. We were seated quickly, which I appreciated. As a party of 7 we were seated in a booth with a chair at the end to accommodate our larger party size. Our orders were taken relatively quickly. However, this is where the good times end. Our orders took at least 45 minutes. None of us ordered anything complicated. My mother ordered fettuccine Alfredo. I'm not sure how they make their Alfredo sauce, but it was not great. Had almost no taste. It looked mostly like water? My dish was supposed to be manicotti, which is large shells with ricotta cheese and red sauce on the top. I received one large (undercooked) shell packed with ???? Maybe some sort of sausage?? There was definitely no ricotta cheese. My mom and I sent our meals back. We had waited so long at this point, neither of us wanted another meal prepared. The bread and salad were good. My kids enjoyed their spaghetti and ravioli. I'm so bummed this meal was not great. Maybe it was just an off night? read more

It is sad to see how far Diciccos has fallen. The hostess/wait staff could not seem less interested or less prepared to do their jobs. We were treated almost as if they were annoyed were there. It was mostly young kids working there and the professionalism was at the level of a lazy high school kid with better things to do. I brought my mother and grandmother to dinner. Both commented on the attitudes of the staff. The complimentary bread was cold and dry. Our drinks empty drinks remained unrecognized until our entrees were brought to our tables. It took almost 10 minutes before full glasses were returned. My scarface rigatoni meal was very average and my grandmother decided to pass on her lasagna after two bites. The plates average $15-$20, but were worth maybe $6 if I were starving. Being a Clovis native of more that 30 years, it saddens me to see a once iconic restaurant become so horrible. read more

Had a combination and a calzone and have to say it was pretty bad. The crust on the calzone was rubbery and the fillings tasted old. The sauce was bitter, combination wasn't good at all. The best part of the meal was the Butter! Never returning. read more

There should be a negative rating on here because this place needs it. Ive never eaten at a Diciccos before and I never will again. My cousin ordered clam chowder and it was horrible. The chowder taste like it had mayo in it. He also ordered a pasta dish with chicken and mushrooms in it and there was hardly no chicken. I ordered a panini sandwich that came with a side of fries and the sandwich was hard as a rock. My fries also had a weird taste to them I don't know what it was. My husband ordered a pasta dish with canadian bacon and chicken in it and he liked it. I took a bite of his pasta and I wasn't impressed. Also his pasta was sitting in a pool of what looked like oil. the service was ok until the waitress made a rude comment to my husband because he ended up eating the clam chowder my cousin ordered (because we waited over an hour for our food) and then he told her that it wasn't good. So when my husband finished his pasta, the waitress came by to get the plates and asked him if it was good. he told her yes and then she said are you sure its good? I thought you didn't like it since you ate it all. What kind of a comment it that? I will never eat here again, we should had went to Olive Garden... they are so much better. You would think that a place like Diciccos that has an average menu price of $12-14 you would get good food but no.. all you get is disappointing food and ripped off. read more

I've been coming to Diciccos for years now. Today I came in with a few of my girls, we were greeted by the bartender "Steve" it took 15 minutes for us to even be acknowledged. After we were greeted I was standing at the bar for 10 minutes, it was not very busy but he proceeded to tell me to "wait my turn" extremely rude and disrespectful. From the time I was there I saw him taking some kind of shot 2 times behind the bar. Very unprofessional as much as I love Diciccos, if this is what they allow their staff to do and treat their guests I will not be coming back. read more

Nice venue! Updated space. very helpful with a problem that came up and they took care of it. Wait staff was great and food was delicious. read more

My husband was dying of hunger, but we are always both so indecisive when it comes to food. Then, I remembered ordering the Rigatoni Scarface on ubereats and how delicious it was and suggested Diccicos. Upon arrival, we were told it was going to be a 15 minute wait, but it was only about 5 minutes. I always check in just in case there are specials and I was elated to find that you can get free Italian nachos with a $25 purchase for checking in. I let the waiter know right away about the nachos. I already had my rigatoni scarface in mind so I knew exactly what I wanted and I knew I was going to like it. My husband took awhile to decide even though he threw a big hunger fit and finally decided on the spaghetti bari. We both loved our dishes. The scarface is a chicken alfredo made with penne pasta and mushrooms. The Italian nachos are fries topped with melted cheese, cilantro and mixed with blue cheese. The spaghetti bari is spaghetti made with their spicy house red sauce, shrooms, sausage and mozarella. Ny husband loved his spaghetti bari so much, he refused to let me have even one bite. We were also served bread with olive oil, vinegar and butter. Our server was nice and they were busy. The only thing was we had so much food and I finished my soda and no one really came by to give me a refill for awhile so I didn't want to eat and be thirsty and parched. My food got cold while waiting for someone to come by so I asked for boxes. Our waiter did finally come by to refill my drink, but we were ready for our bill so he put our drinks in to go cups which was nice. Besides Lunas and Rosas in Visalia, Diccico's is definitely one of my favorite italian restaurants. read more

We had our Andaaz Salon and Boutique Christmas dinner at DiCicco's Old Town Clovis last night. Everything was excellent. Jenna, the banquet manager organized the dinner perfectly! Our server was so responsive, kind and competent. Jenna even put their front lobby Christmas tree in the banquet room for us! The entertainment in the lounge was really fun and our staff had a great time before and after the delicious dinner. I highly recommend this restaurant located in our own home town! read more

I have been going to this restaurant for over 35 years and it has gone so far downhill that it should just close up at this point! Without Vittorio at the helm both the food and the service are appalling! The staff are just beyond ignorant, they literally stand around mocking customers and gossiping (for everyone to hear) and the food is putrid. Stale two day old bread, sour sauce and burnt bottoms on their baked (al forno) calzones. The new staff and management are seriously lacking and are doing nothing for the reputation of the Diciccos brand. I'm SO done with this place and will be heading around the corner to Luna's for good food :( read more

The quality of food is very low. Like Great value brand plus they forgot an item. I was told to avoid this location and now I understand why unfortunately read more

I would say it's so sad, it's funny. But, it's not even laughable. I came on Yelp! because my server told me to some months ago, and now I know why. The bad reviews are accurate and I know why they told me I would get a free appetizer If I wrote a review. Too bad, this review is not a good one because I deserve (at least) free entree for the lack of professionalism that I was blindsided with. The turnover with staff is clearly an issue. The managers/management is obviously a huge problem that has yet to be addressed. The customer service is non-existent. How can items (and drinks) on the menu not be replaced when out of stock? Menu is not up to date. How can you expect diners to have a good experience when employees are not trained? Staff lacks basic skills. How can you run a business when you have managers who are inadequate? You do not care about the concerns of your customers. Put in a request for a "Restaurant:Impossible" because nobody in Fresno or Clovis is able to save your establishment. Not even the people you hire to run your business are in position to turn it around. Better yet, close down and let a REAL Italian restaurant operate. read more

This was disappointing. My lasagna was cold and a little mushy..my food as well as that of my companions' came out right about 6 minutes after we ordered it. The service was great however and I wish I could rate them on their own. I will not be returning as I am certain this food is refrigerated then reheated. read more

Our server (karissa) was very prompt and nice. The restaurant is located in old town clovis in a prime location. We had a great view and enjoyed the music selection playing overhead. However, our booth leaned quite a bit, enough so that I thought my drink was going to slide off the table. It was cold enough in the restaurant that we both kept our jackets on. We were told that the mini calzones were $6.99 and later told they were $8.99. The salads were DRENCHED in dressing. The silk flower arrangements were nice but coated in dust. The mini calzones were over salted and the ground beef inside was dry and grainy. The calzones were topped with red gravy which was good but made the pastry soggy by the time it got to our table. All in all was a decent meal but over priced. read more

DiCicco's Old Town Clovis - This is not an optical illusion, our table was about 6 inches from level. - Italian Near Me - Clovis, California

Thought I would give this place a try!!! Way over priced for the poor quality of food! We ordered a pizza giant size which is basically a large $25 bucks really ok... First off our pizza was extremely salty the crust was super hard, so then the waitress asks "how was everything" I begin to tell her the Pizza was super salty!!!! She's says oh that's normal I'll talk to the manager to see what I could do... So I said ok cool... She comes back to say my manager can't do nothing because you've eatin a piece!!!!!! Really are u serious how else would I have know if it was good or not!!!!!! Never again will I go back!!!! Food was grosssss!!!!! Btw the waitress was rudeeeee!!!! No wonder this place has bad reviews!!! Don't waste ur money!!!!!! read more

Food and drinks were good. Sat in the lounge section. Would definetly go again. Waitress was friendly. Loved the country event
