Frisella’s Roastery is a nice casual place, service is excellent, prices ok. Food, not so good. We had a combo plate of ribs, chicken and tri trip with a salad. The food was not very warm and the tri trip was dried. I only enjoyed the salad, the salad was very good..

Located in "The Village" of downtown Glendora. Calm atmosphere, outdoor dining, not a whole lot of auto traffic, kid friendly.....Now the food. House made potato chips, yes please! Pulled bbq pork on atrisan bread....excellent. Choice of salads as well, mixed greens, ceasar etc. Beer? Yes'um. Several small craft choices and yeah...the usual light stuff too.
Everything went beyond my expectations, from the quality of the service to the quality of the food. Excellent in every way.

My girlfriend and I frequent Frisellas every now and again but I do believe after yesterday's experience we will make an effort to become regulars. We started with the fried shrimp appetizer which was very good. (and on happy hour) Rum and coke was enjoyed by my fair lady and I imbibed in the voodoo ranger Ipa. From there we went on to our main courses, the Olympic burger for my girlfriend and the fish n chips for myself. My girlfriend's order initially was delivered incorrect as she wanted the gorgonzola cheese on the side which it was but they still put it on the burger anyway. Our server made quick work of the mistake and took our burger back so it could be prepared correctly. My fish n chips were frankly delicious I also don't know what seasoning they use on the fries but they were also spot on. The Olympic burger was also well concocted. However I do believe my go too will be the fish n chips as I can't understate how delicious they were. Also It is also worth noting that upon receiving the check I noticed our server didn't charge me for one of the Ipa's I ordered. I assume as a way of apology for the botched initial burger order. Frisella's Roastery has earned itself a couple of new soon to be regular patrons.

My first time at Frisella's, I ordered a cheeseburger for takeout and when I walked in the vibe felt so cool I decided to eat it there.I got a chance to meet the owner and the rest of the staff was very nice.I ended up sitting at the bar to eat enjoying a voodoo ranger IPA on draft.I was watching a couple celebrating a birthday also seated at the bar who both ordered the fish and chips... I kind of wish I would have ordered that, it looked delicious and they were giving it amazing praise.I'll try that next time.There was plenty of parking in Old Town glendora on a monday evening.It was a nice little evening walk to and from the restaurant with the trees lit up beautifully for the holidays.I'll definitely be back soon.

On what planet is happy hour only .50 off for beer?! Also, I have never had bad fried zucchini. I mean, that's a crazy easy dish to make right? Wrong! My fried zucchini had sooo much water in them, they were absolutely inedible! I do not reccomend this place, despite their awesome location.

Food quality has gone down since new owners took over. Never take over a successful business then reduce the quality of food! Raise the price if you need to but don't skimp on the food, it's to expensive to eat bad food.

We love to come to Frisellas on Friday nights! Great drinks and food! But we love the staff the most! They make us feel like family!
No reply from Frisella's - Just makes me sad.....Our family has enjoyed Frisella's for many years. Unfortunately, our last few visits have been so disappointing that we will not be returning. The lack of service throughout the entire experience was unacceptable. Once seated we waited and waited and waited until one member of our party finally got up, went to the back, and inquired if we even had a server. From the rest of the experience, it became obvious that there was NO one who had been assigned to wait on our table. Three different times someone had to leave our table to ask for drink refills, items that were missing from our order, ask for assistance, ask for a check and finally pay. We watched other parties come and go (apparently they had been assigned a server?) and still we waited. There were never any apologies, only excuses. One of the best lines was when our daughter went to track down the individual who had taken our order. His response was, "ummmmm, where are you sitting?" Obviously, he had no idea we were even there! The "service" was inexcusable, the food was mediocre, and the attitude was offensive. We were treated like an annoyance rather than patrons of the establishment. Sadly we will not be back. How unfortunate that Frisella's has become a place we will not return to.

I’ve been coming here for years and so far everything I’ve ordered on the menu has been delicious.They have a big smoker in the back for their BBQ and you can smell it as you drive by.They have a variety of options from chicken, ribs, burgers, sandwiches, soups and a ton of sides.They have outdoor seating which is a plus when you have socal weather and a good drink menu with happy hour.Their service is also great. Your greeted right as you walk in, attentive servers and Food comes out in a timely manor.If you haven’t given this place a shot i recommend you take the leap and dive. You won’t be disappointed.
