Frisco Deli is definitely a Pearl local favorite and one of those classic mom-and-pop restaurants…read more The staff is always extremely friendly, and the food has consistently been good every time we've been. The catfish plate and chicken dinner plates are classics, and the portions are HUGE. You definitely won't leave hungry! The location is convenient, right on Pearson Road, which is one of the main roads through Pearl. There's indoor seating as well as an outdoor seating area under a covered awning. Inside is casual and comfortable, with the walls covered in photos and memorabilia featuring local people and Jackson-area history. It gives the restaurant a lot of personality. If you're looking for a locally owned place with big portions, good food, and genuinely friendly service, Frisco Deli is a great lunch spot in Pearl.

I started eating at Frisco deli in Metro Center when I was 16 years old. Fast-forward 40 years and…read moreI rolled through the Pearl location for the same sandwich I've eaten for 40 years. The location may have changed but something that has not is the quality of food and service. I have been ordering the exact thing for years and it's as delicious today as it was in 1986 We moved away from Pearl in 2018 so I rarely get over here. I was excited to see the line was not backed out to the street since it was 1030 so I grabbed my turkey and provolone on an onion roll with mayonnaise, mustard, lettuce, warm. The fries were extremely fresh and hot. The sandwich was amazing. And to top it off is the service. They have always had the friendliest people who make you feel better when you leave than when you arrived. Through the years and when the kids were little, we enjoyed their chicken tenders, and I have also had the ribs. I've never had anything from there that was not delicious and fresh. There's nothing like a family owned business that has been around for years and still serving up quality and great service The inside is always super clean and even though there is a line at the drive-in, it moves quickly The very fact that all of their employees have worked for them for double digit years speaks volumes to the character of these owners

Stumbled across this spot actually searching on Yelp again...I love Yelp...and I knew this was…read morewhere I was eating. As pictured, there is a little bit of Detroit decor around the small restaurant. Walk in, order at the counter and wait for it to be brought to you. There is very little seating, I think I counted like 9 tables. I am a little confused as to if it is authentic to Detroit food, as I saw a big bottle of Tony Chacherie's seasoning in the kitchen which is sprinkled on the fries and probably seasoning for the burgers as well. I'm not sure. Woman was super nice, said they'd been open 9 1/2 years with her working there 9 of the years. The owner is from Detroit she told us, but the restaurant definitely lacked anything that would make me personally feel like I were in Detroit. She told us the patties were 8 ounces and for some reason I thought that was tiny, leading me to get the Willie Mack Triple Burger. The burger is indeed not tiny, but ginormous. Very tasty, hot and fresh, there is cheese on every slice and the salad is underneath all the patties. Mayo, mustard and ketchup as well. Fries were great, with Tony's seasoning of course, the burger was incredible, authentic Detroit or not it was very good. My mom got the single burger with fries and we both got drinks leading the total to $30. The drink machine was out, so the lady gave us cans of coke, and I requested sprite so she had a 2 liter of sprite??? ‍ She gave me a cup and told me I can have as many refills as I wanted as well as coke for my mom. It was weird, but the woman made the restaurant feel very homey which I really appreciated. It was a great experience, the lady was incredibly nice, the food was amazing, not sure how authentic to Detroit it is, but I like this place.

Service was great. However, my food wasn't. I ordered the pork chops. They were not a good quality…read morepork chop. I would rather pay more and receive a better quality any day. The only way I can describe it; think of a McDonald's chicken nugget that has been processed with white meat and dark meat and other parts to create a chicken nugget. Well, I really tried to eat the pork chops but I couldn't. I opted and got the red fish sandwich instead. It was good. Also, I was with a party of at least 13 or 14. I know food arriving at the table at the same time is important but our food wasn't the temper it should have been. We felt like they were trying to hold it and serve everyone together. There was only one more table there. Even if they have to bring the food out at different times, please do so to ensure everyone receives a hot meal. We sent several items back to be reheated. That's not good.

The franchise owner should terminate her immediately. The food was mediocre. Yes, the fries were soggy - but I like the flavor. The sandwich was mashed and the mayonnaise was on the outside of the bread - not inside on the meat. The sandwich was supposed to have crispy onions - there was nothing crispy about the order. The franchise owner should take a look at the reviews of this location. I would pay good money to watch an episode of Undercover Boss based on this place.

Very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Mike got the loaded Philly but subbed jalapeños for the bell peppers. He left off the cheese sauce and added extra provolone. He lovessssss a good Philly. It was very hot and fresh. The meat was chopped so much that it almost seemed like ground beef. It lacked the flavor he was hoping for. The fries are no longer hand cut as the menu on Facebook says. We think they should offer to sub hand cut fries for an extra charge to make up for the hard work. Some folks don't mind frozen fries but we love a good hand cut fry. We will go back and try a burger next time. Stay tuned for a smash burger update. We really hope they are successful as they are such a great family and are working hard.

Everything was dumped into my warm not hot, weak bowl of broth : chopped cilantro, bean sprouts, many, many slices of white onion. I had to request more herbs, lime, and I still never got any jalapeño, Thai basil or green onion. Maybe it's supply issues since the "not a fan of big government" crew doesn't believe in regulations regarding our food supply. But the banh mi was sad too, lacking the crunch of do chua with a few sad soggy cucumber strips. The place was clean, the staff was friendly enough. If I had to come back, I'd order donuts.
