Farinacci's is my favorite pizza.
Yes, I live in Chicago, famous for pizza.
Yes, I've been to New York, equally famous for pizza and have tried many different places there.
Yes, I have also eaten at other Akron-area pizza places (i.e. Luigi's) that are touted as (and are) delicious.
But... Farinacci's is an institution in my family and I basically grew up eating it. Anyone with a connection to the Nordonia Hills area (you currently live there, you grew up there, or someone in your family grew up there) can attest to how great of a pizza this restaurant serves up. Thin, but not too thin, lots of toppings, light on the sauce and full of grease! It may be a bit greasy for the faint of heart, but a non-greasy pizza is like eating... cardboard. Yuck! They also serve a great side salad loaded with cheese and house dressing to die for.
Every time I come home my family makes it a point to get Farinacci's at least once. Until they opened up this location we used to drive from Stow to Northfield (about 45 minutes round-trip) just to get some pizza. Even though they did open a Hudson location a few years back my dad couldn't go there because it just "wasn't the same" (he was just being nostalgic - it's exactly the same). I was finally able to convince him to pick pizza up from this location and now he's a believer.
This place is cash only, as are all of their restaurants. Since I prefer plastic over cash that is one drawback, but I know enough about finance to let it slide for small family-owned businesses. I am unaware if there is a dining room here as we have only done take-out, but they are also a pick-up only restaurant so make sure to get it home quickly and eat it piping hot!
Thank you for finally coming to Cuyahoga Falls. I really hope it catches on here like it did up in Northfield!
