    If you're looking for a no frills pizza joint then this is your spot. Mom and pop feel with a basic menu. My husband and I enjoyed the super thin crust pepperoni pizza and salad. Service was prompt and friendly. Beer and wine prices were good. Overall great spot for a casual bite to eat

    Fricano's and Tuesday Night Cruise Nights! Alright you guys. We've got a SWEET spot to show ya! Fricano's is 100% a crowd favorite. They serve up amazing thin crust pizzas! Their pizza is one of the most famous in Michigan and is simply a classic. I can remember visiting Fricano's all the time growing up and it really is a family event! And you won't be disappointed at all at what their menu has to offer! Love all kinds of meats on your pizza? A variety of veggies? How about some pineapple? (Shoutout to all the pineapple pizza lovers ) Fricano's has it ALL! In Comstock Park, Fricano's adds even more flare to their restaurant by hosting "Cruise Nights" What exactly are Cruise Nights you might ask? Cruise Nights are for showing off the classic cars in the area and it is so cool!! So many cars show up and it's amazing to walk through and look at the years of the cars, some dating back to the early 1900's, and notice the different styles! Not only is it amazing to look at all the classic cars, but it also shows a sense of community in the area which is just as cool to witness!

    They're open for in dining. They offer beer and wine. Thin crust pizza and salad very good. Tables with diners adequately spaced during this covid-19 era. Friendly waitstaff.

    Looks good but tastes horrible. If you don't believe me go try it

    Sadly I was looking forward to liking this place. I'm a thin crust fan but this was just bad. Paper thin, someone put pizza spice all over it, the Parmesan cheese is in their pie somewhere. It was so over spiced and Parmesan was way to much. Cooked correct just a sad frozen over spiced Jacks pizza. Maybe it was the guy running the ovens tonight but it was horrific. Had to stop at arbys and drink a shake to rid that taste. Threw out leftovers. Sorry to write this guys. Pictures are deceiving

    Pizza is the best! Love the thin crust! Some people think it's greasy but that's just the delicious cheese that they use.

    I had noticed Licari's moved into the old Red Hot Inn space but didn't realize their Fuller/Knapp…read morelocated had closed. I'm glad I got to visit the new(er) spot recently! The space is cozy and pretty large, with what looked to be a private area with a birthday party going on towards the back. Our server was really friendly and patient as we explored the menu, which features Sicilian items like pizza, pasta, and several starters. We wanted to try some appetizers so we ordered the cozze di mare (mussels) with white sauce, rotoli (eggplant rolls filled with Prosciutto di Parma, house-made tomato sauce and provolone cheese, baked then topped with basil), and a Caesar salad. The mussels and eggplant dish came out first and were delicious. I personally loved the eggplant rotoli the most - the eggplant was tender, the sauce was savory, and it was stuffed with cheese and prosciutto... yum! I would get this as a meal with a side of garlic bread for dipping. The mussels were nicely cooked and the sauce was subtle. The salad was crisp and fresh and I liked the different toppings (fresh tomatoes and sun dried tomatoes). The Caesar salad only comes in the large size, but it was good to share with the group. For dinner we shared a couple of pizzas - the bocce and a margherita. The freshly grated cheese over top was perfection - don't skip this! I loved all the toppings on the bocce (basically a version of a supreme pizza) but the pepperoni was my favorite with how crispy it got. The crust was missing a bit of flavor for me, but it was cooked well and not soggy. We were too stuffed for dessert but I'd come back for their cannoli or rotating cheesecake flavors! I want to try their pasta next also.

So they miss things, and you either don't get things in your order or don't get it made correctly. I guess that makes me not so smart to try them again at this point. I get the occasional missed topping on a pizza or something, but we were out an entire entree, and it was a whole salmon fillet on top of pasta. That's a reeeeeeelly hard thing to miss. The food is great, so dine in where you can send it back if it's wrong. Use delivery at your own risk.

Table's biggest hit was the…read moreKing Louie Fries which were their seasoned crinkle cut fries with melted cheese, shaved beef, and giardiniera peppers. I think the Chicago dog and the Italian Beef with the au jus on the side were solid, but nothing to write back home to Chicago about. Better than Portillo's, kind of reminded me of Mr. Beef almost. Getting the sandwich wet is usually the rite of passage, but I went for the au jus on the side. Don't make the mistake I did. Everything just falls out of it when you tilt the sandwich to dip it. Also, if you think you can eat hot giardiniera peppers, just think for a quick sec longer because these ones were pretty hot for someone who has a decent heat tolerance.

    I ordered the chili cheese, Polish sausage and the chili cheese fries. The presentation is as good…read moreas it can be for this type of food and they did a nice job with keeping the menu basic and simple. The taste of the Polish dog was good. the bun was soft. It was portioned correctly. It just was very bland compared to what else you can get in Grand Rapids. The chili cheese fries also were not horrible but I wanna say they were great. It is just gas station cheese and chili from a can. Again, not horrible just nothing special. Overall, I probably wouldn't recommend this place but I also want to steer someone away either especially if you are drunk and at the bar across the street. I'm sure it tastes much better. That being said, I think it's a perfect restaurant for its location. There is not a ton of competition directly next-door or across the street. And technically, the Bar across the street has food of a similar quality however it is a nice alternative It's up to you. There's much better places in town for hotdog however, I would give the spot another shot to try the Italian beef. I have heard it is not excellent, but I have not had it Personally.
