    Our server Cesar was great! We ordered a large pizza half Hawaiian and half supreme. As well as the habanero and buffalo wings. The food was amazing and fresh 10/10. Definitely recommend coming here for amazing food!

    Costumer service was the gentleman was very nice and patient. The dining area is small but clean. The food was absolutely delicious I ordered a calzone (well done) it came out perfect!!! The pizza was extra cheesy with the right amount of doe.. We will definitely be coming here more often. The salad was amazing! I'm so glad my husband decided to try this place it's good

    This was our second time trying pizza from this place and once again we enjoyed it! The location is small, not spotless but not dirty either, and really hot. I don't know if they have AC, but if they do it wasn't working. When we arrived this time, we had every intention of eating there, but it was hot!!! The guy who took our order didn't even charge us for the soda cups and told us it was on them. That was super nice of him! While we sat to wait for our pizza to be ready, a guy started working on the ice machine. He even brought out a ladder and was doing maintenance at that very moment. When the pizza came out, we decided to take it home. Their crust is delicious and doesn't fall apart when biting. We love that! Their calzone was starting to get soggy from just the 7min drive in the car from the restaurant to the house so we tried to finish that one first. It was good, but also a little too moist. We'll probably just try their sister shop next time so we can eat there!

    Amazing pizza, pasta, & wings and the best customer service! They really go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your meal.

    Raw inside, overcooked outside.

    Man, how do people not know what is good pizza? We tried this place from a Nextdoor recommendation, and wow, was it bad. We got mozzarella sticks, which were frozen and undercooked. We tried their pizza, nothing special, and a Stromboli that was raw inside, slightly overcooked on the outside, and the veggies were not cooked at all.

    Meat Signature Pizza!

    Accidentally ordered Papa Joe's instead of Papa John's for dinner one night and was not disappointed. The pizza was stacked with toppings! Even the plain cheese pizza was delicious. There was a good sauce to cheese ratio that was generous enough to satisfy and not too much to cause the crust to get soggy on the bottom. The crispy-ness was on point. Wings were bomb too; they were huge compared to your average boneless wings and sauced up well. That buffalo flavor was just damn...maybe I should have gotten a bigger size. The ranch cups were a good size too; not stingy like other restaurants. I don't think many people order outside of the usual pizza chains unless they know the place or have a friend recommend it to them, but this place is worth it! UPDATE: this has been the go-to pizza spot since I've discovered it! They are quick with pick-up and delivery orders plus the quality of their pizza stays on point. The calzones are delicious too. Always look forward to eating Papa Joe's! Love this place!

    Garlic Bread and pizza :)

    Pizza was amazing as well as the garlic bread. Service was great, friendly and helpful. And the ambiance would be how you expect any pizza shop but it was clean, nicely air conditioned, and had tables for eating. Great stop for some pizza :)

    Hawaiian pizza with added jalapeños!
    Krystal C.

    Stumbled upon this place from instagram! And so happy we did. Walked in and ordered 1 xl pep pizza, 1 large Hawaiian, 1 large pep, 8 count of wings, and some garlic bread for the price of what we would pay at your big corp pizza place! The guy had our stuff ready in 15 minutes. Food was so delicious, and the wings is whats going to keep us coming back!

Everything was spotless. The ambiance is clean, welcoming, and comfortable. Service was fast, but what stood out was that the cashier still took the time, with a smile, to explain parts of the menu when we had questions. The prices are surprisingly affordable. When my mom hesitated because of the language, they made the effort to speak Spanish to make her feel comfortable, which meant a lot to us. We were served at our table, and honestly, the first bite was heavenly. I thought I already loved Greek food, but this went beyond anything I've tried before. Definitely coming back

All I got was a hand-up in the air, towards myself. I continued to stand there, while the man continued to ask said child questions,.. still waiting on them ordering.... When finally a gentleman from the back walks up and gives me the simple code, which took him 2 seconds. #2: I order the Baja fish sandwich... IT IS NOTHING LIKE THE PHOTO. Flavorless and blah. This sandwich WAS NOT WORTH THE $11.00. I would rather go to McDonald's for their Fillet-O-Fish sandwich, at least they are true to their picture and not deceiving as a way of advertising. Also, Just an FYI the women's bathroom is a mess. You can tell it hasn't been checked in a while... photos to follow....

They even have impressive TV dinners for $10 (or less if you buy 5 or more) that are housemade, gourmet versions of those retro Hungry Man/Banquet frozen meals of yesteryear.

But the peanut butter cup brownie is a close second. Wish one came with their butter cake. Honestly my main concern when it comes to TV dinners is what dessert is included. So it was an added bonus that the dinners themselves were higher quality than expected! Lazy Dog made a wise pivot with their brand by capturing a larger demographic of casual diners with these bowls/TV dinners. I hope other chains like Cheesecake Factory and P.F. Chang's follow suit.
