It’s awesome that a spot like this exists in Dormont of all places. The food here is authentic, homemade, and really good. I believe the place is Bosnian. I tried several items, including a large cevapi, their homemade cookies, and the Hurmashica dessert.
The main meal, the Cevapi, was very good. I was stunned by how incredible the bread was. It was crispy on the edges, fluffy on the inside, and paired very well with the sausage. They could sell the bread on the side as extra and I’d buy it!
The sausages themselves were pretty good, although I think I have had better. They were flavorful, but I think I wanted a tad more kick or sweetness or something to take it over the edge. The sour cream was decent but not that flavorful. Good texture and size for the price.
The desserts were both super tasty as well. The Hurmashica reminded me of a cross over between baklava, gulab jamun, and namoura (especially namoura) if you have ever tried those desserts. It has a very homey feel to it. It’s quite sweet and has almost a wheat-like flavor which I personally really enjoyed.
The cookies, which I believe are homemade, were amazing as well. I think they rotate flavors, and I got to try their peanut butter cookies. They were awesome. Super soft and creamy on the inside. Great nutty flavor and not excessively sweet.
All in all, this is a great spot for Bosnian food. Essentially everything is homemade and you can taste that. Their specialities are very well made. The desserts are incredible too. Definitely stop by if you’d like to try something new or are...
Read moreFredo's is a quaint, hidden away Bosnian gem in the heart of Dormont. The food is made fresh and if you happen to be one of the lucky ones, will be able to try an amazing baklava that has just been freshly prepared. The Cevapi is 100% my favorite dish here. 2nd would be a very close, Gyro.
The establishment itself is a little dated but the food is next to incredible. Today was the Gyro salad with Baklava for desert. You can never go wrong with a salad but for some reason, Fredo's just puts it to a whole different level. Definitely a generous portion for what you would expect.
I am embarrassed that I can provide a review without taking any pictures of the food. Folks, I'm telling you, it is that good that I absolutely forgot the pictures and just...
Read moreWe were in Dormont visiting our son and daughter-in-law and most importantly our brand new granddaughter, we decided to try this local deli because it was within walking distance. Well, we were all pleasantly surprised at the experience. My daughter-in-law loved her godfather sandwich and fries, my wife and son loved their mediterranean veggie panini, but everyone including me, loved the incredibly well prepared chicken parmigiana hoagie. It’s probably a safe bet that anything on the menu here is terrific. The restaurant was super clean and the staff were nice, helpful and friendly! Can’t wait to visit again! ...
