We ordered the larger pizza so I could have leftovers....so good!

Manolo's Pizza & Empanadas

The best pizza at its price point in CU, and it is not even close (since Antonio's closed years…read moreago). I have never liked their empanadas, but who cares; it is a pizza joint, and I am reviewing their pizza. Having tried an embarrassing number of their pizzas in the last ten years, the only skippable pizza is the curried chicken, which is bland and tastes more like "yellow" than anything related to India. Every single specialty pizza besides this one is worth the splurge. The spotted goat, of course, is transcendent, but do not sleep on their premium toppings like balsamic chicken. The BBQ meats pizza will cure your hangover, and some of the veggie options like the sweet balsamic modena veg are fantastic, especially considering how few decent veg places we have in town. I don't even want to consider how much money I have spent here. Is it top-tier NY/NJ quality, no, is it five stars as in "the best pizza I have ever had," not even close, and in NJ this would be just ok... but we are in CU. By CU standards, this is five-star pizza, and I would literally cry if they closed. Even by Chicago standards, this is good pizza. If Papa Del's sauce is too sweet for you, if Patricio's and Vinny's basic toppings get boring, and if Rosati's thin crust seems bland, you might appreciate the NY style tangy crust and creativity at Manolos. High quality ingredients and tasty pizza.

I liked that you could choose red vs green bell pepper, since I prefer red and it isn't usually an option. The toppings seemed quite fresh, the crust was soft like typical NY pizza. Even with these positives though, I felt it was expensive for what it was. I don't think a large, even with this number of toppings, should be over $30. Regardless, I probably will return! Good pizza!

I have never been more disappointed in our local Monicals. This has always been a place to go and enjoy good pizza until a recent visit. We walked into the restaurant to be seated, nothing out of the ordinary until we got to the booth that we were expected to sit in. It was filthy! Marinara sauce spread all over the seat, trash including dirty napkins, a placemat, and the previous costumers food on the floor underneath the table. After asking for the table to be cleaned the waitress said, "It's just some marinara. A toddler was just sitting here." However, a toddler is NOT an excuse for the cleanliness of the restaurant. Upset by the situation, we moved to another booth only to be told that we had to move to another area because that section was closed for cleaning. So, we moved once again to another table to only have what seemed to be the manager this time come over and tell us once again that we couldn't sit there after already being told by the waitress that we could. We finally were able to settle into another booth and order. The food was fine, but the service was terrible and we were only one of three tables with costumers in the restaurant. Extremely disappointed and will not be back. read more

This place has always been good but today the manager was AMAZING! I placed my order online. When I went to pick it up, the wrong soda was in the bag and no dressing. No big deal. The girl immediately took care of switching it and I was on my way home. Once I got home and opened my bags, I realized that I ordered the wrong pizzas. I called the store to ask if they could make new ones and I would pay for the correct ones. David said it was no problem and the pizzas would be ready in 15 minutes - no charge. I think that was so awesome because as a family of 6 eating here is expensive and David's customer service was above and beyond. Thank you so much, David!! -Mom, Dad and 4 hungry kids :) read more

It feels disrespectful to include this on a menu and charge $28 for such a disastrous glob of tasteless garbage.

You never know what to expect with pizza, no matter the location as there's all kinds of ways to serve it up and differences in crusts, sauce(s) and toppings. However, Papa G's hits the mark for our family. Originally from the Chicago area, our family is fond of Vito Nicks on the south side, Lou Malnati's and a local favorite, Pizza Mia, where we used to live, so when we first moved downstate to Downs we had to give Papa G's a try. Their "thin pizza" has a little bit "thicker" crust, definitely not a cracker crust, but crisp nonetheless for being a thick as it is. Sauce isn't sweet, more traditional red sauce which we like & appreciate. They only offer a 12 inch & 16 inch and pieces are cut generously. Only small negative I have is occasionally, they've been light of some of the toppings. But, the overall taste & flavor, along with their "5 minute warning" phone call they provide for pickups is worthy of a 5 star rating. After a number of orders, we are fans of Papa G's! Good people, good pizza and fairly priced with a nice selection of beer & pop!
