Why it's worth checking out
Don Frico brings New York-style pizza by the slice and a cocktail-bar setting to Salamanca. Its pizza is described as thin, crisp and easy to fold and eat by hand, making it a practical choice for a quick bite or a more relaxed evening. The drinks offering includes cold beers, cocktails and martinis, with small plates also available alongside the slices.
The venue is designed to shift through the evening. It starts as a place for after-work drinks and pizza, then moves towards a livelier late-night atmosphere as the tables are cleared and The Ticcle DJs play records. That combination of food, drinks and vinyl gives Don Frico a clear identity: part slice shop, part bar and part music-focused night spot.
At 22 Montpelier Retreat, Don Frico suits visitors looking for a casual meal, a drink before heading elsewhere or a longer night built around music. The by-the-slice format can work well for sharing or for solo diners wanting something straightforward, while the cocktails, beers and small plates give groups more options to settle in. Its late trading on Friday and Saturday makes it particularly relevant for Salamanca evenings, without pretending to be a formal dining room or a quiet café.
