    I ordered a sicilian pizza, which is their biggest size, with two toppings. It cost $31.61. There are 16 square slices and 4 slices are enough to get you full. The crust wasn't very good. The overall pizza taste and service was average.

    There is no other place in Phoenix to buy pizza since Casanova Brothers Pizza closed in Mesa. Casanova was always a second choice to Ray's for me. GREAT NEW YORK STYLE PIZZA, in a New York environment. Being a NYer I am totally at home here and I try to bring my out of town guests here. The pizza is traditional NY style with a great taste. If you like Pepsi, their mixture of syrup and carbonated water is perfect.

    Two slices of pepperoni pizza with garlic powder and pepper flakes.

    Rays at 3rd St and Bell is my go to pizza place for slices. It has always been consistent and excellent for years. I'm leaving for a 4 month trip and needed a pizza fix.

    Burnt. Crust... uneatable. Spent all that money for what. Won't be ordering from here again. Why didn't someone remake this?

    It was what I expected of a New York Pizza. Thin, floppy crust, adequate sized toppings. A-OK in my book.

    FIRST OFF! When asking how do you make your Meatball…read moreSandwich there is 1 correct answer! These guys NAILED IT! I know some of you are uneducated about the quality of a meatball sandwich & that's ok, I'm not judging so do not be offended. To begin... This is a neighborhood place just like back east , nestled in a neighborhood on the corner hidden from the strip mall garbage. When you come here, and you better, do not be distracted by the path to tasty food. It is in an older neighborhood with minimal parking but fantastic personalities, service & FOOD! Upon entry it's a time warp for us who grew up in a time that was better. This is a good Olde Fashion deli that sells great food with amazing service. Franks is a family place. Back to the real topic... Meatball Sandwich; when you ask what is the cheese that use & the owner is educated on quality be states "Provolone on the bottom, Mozzarella on top" just know you're in the right place! The flavor is top notch, added some cherry peppers to spice it up just right, bell peppers & onions are standard. Took it to go, drove about 20 minutes to where I needed to be, the aroma was teasing me, the concern of the sandwich being cold or soggy rang in my mind while driving the 17 to the 10.. I was nervous, anxious & salivating.... Opening the togo container to see the glorious sandwich! The meatballs are still hot, the sauce is holding place & the bread is still bread, not some soggy remnant of dough! Thank you for the pride, quality & tasty sandwich.

In my previous visits we have had the Meatball, Sausage, and Ruben sandwiches. I was hoping to try the Steak sandwich and was fortunate to get one today. Last time we went to Frank's they didn't have it on the menu that day. It comes with cheese ( I chose Provolone ) , lettuce, tomato, and mustard instead of mayo. The steak is Pork Butt ( a shoulder cut) . I loved it. It was sooo moist, tender, and flavorful. Another sandwich for my repertoire . My friend had a Meatball sandwich. You can't go wrong with that choice. Needless to say he loved his sandwich too. Today we got lucky to get a table to have our lunch. You have to come early for lunch . It gets crowded around 11:30 .

    We've been searching for an Italian deli and bakery that reminds us of the great spots on the East…read moreCoast, and this is probably the closest we've found in the Valley. Overall, there were definitely more hits than misses. The deli offers an impressive variety of hot foods. The sandwiches coming out of the kitchen looked fantastic, and there are plenty of pasta dishes and traditional Italian entrées available as well. We didn't order a hot meal on this visit, but we'll definitely be back to try one. The market section is also worth browsing. They carry a wide selection of pastas, sauces, olive oils, canned tomatoes, and other Italian staples. My only suggestion would be to expand the specialty pasta selection with options like squid ink, spinach, or roasted red pepper varieties. Of course, we couldn't leave without visiting the bakery case. We brought home an assortment of Italian cookies, a black and white cookie, a Napoleon, chocolate cannolis, and a brownie. The brownie was the one item that didn't impress us, but everything else was delicious and tasted fresh. One thing to be aware of is parking. The lot is quite small, and both we and several other customers ended up parking across the street. It's not necessarily something the business can control, but it's worth mentioning if you're visiting during a busy time. The fact that this shop has been around for decades says a lot about the quality and loyal customer base they've built over the years. Overall, we had a very good experience and are looking forward to returning to explore more of the deli offerings.
