Soooooo good! The pizza! The subs! The salads! Everything! ! BOOM! read more

I took advantage of a Papa Kelsey's coupon for 50% off any toasted sub sandwich today. The service was just ok, the restaurant looked clean, and classic rock music was playing in the background. After a seven minute wait my sandwich combo was delivered to my table. It tasted great with the right amount of toppings except for the onions and green peppers I requested were hardly noticeable. Otherwise a good lunchtime experience. read more

First time visiting this awesome pizza spot in East Mesa. Not in my normal stomping grounds, but I will definitely come up with a reason to return. Our dining party had a cheese pizza, BLT pizza and a black olive and mushroom pizza. All were baked to perfection and served quickly. Each pie had a nice crispy crust and cooked toppings, with a great flavor. read more

I've tried several items from Papa Kelsey's friend. Introduced me to the pizzas and I had a meatball sub the Italian sub several times and now tonight I'm having the Papa Kelsey special pizza. These are delicious reasonably priced and it's a family own business. What market can you ask? And the inside is just what you expected a fountain for your sodas, plenty of booths and plenty of tables perfect for a pizza joint. read more

Good service. Pizza is very good Close to a jersey pizza will be order ing here again read more

Papa Kelsey's is my new fave pizza place! Also, you can't go wrong with SO MANY things on their menu. The meatballs are amazing, the wings are incredible (I don't like their ranch, it's kind of like a garden ranch, so either go with blue cheese or use your ranch at home). Service is always fast, I've only had delivery so can't speak to ambiance. But definitely go and order everything!! read more

Customer service was normal but, if you want to spend a whole 20$ on a small pizza that says is a large then go for it. You're better off buying a frozen pizza from the store than here. read more

We've had the meat sub, calzone and pizza all were amazing. Staff is great restaurant is super clean and in good repair. I've been going once a week for 4 weeks since I first tried it. read more

There Italian Subs have gotten a lot smaller. I got the Italian foot long sub and I got four pieces of meat that was it four pieces of ham. Look at the pictures that I put in here. The bell peppers that came on there was so thin you can see through them so was the mushrooms. I was extremely disappointed considering that I have ordered from them for the past 4 years and had nothing but rave reviews my last two orders were not worth the money that I spent on them.. And much less meat. Definitely not worth what they're charging. There are pizzas still good they're hot wings though hot really you get the hot wing definitely but very little sauce. So I'd bypass those too. read more

I've always passed by this place and I've always wanted to go in and try it. The food was spot on. I got the club sub toasted. Very good amount of condiments on it. Great flavor. I ordered the foot-long so I'd have one for later on that day, and still that sub was perfect Later on. Their service was good. They help me answer questions about the menu when I needed the ambience. The whole place was good not too loud. You could still carry on a good conversation at the table. All the staff was in back working and doing their thing they all had a smile on their face. I highly recommend this place and I look forward to going back as soon as I can to try the very numerous awesome many items they have. read more

What a refreshing change from the usual pizza. Picked up a two topping large pizza with a dozen wings. With the coupon deal it was just under $30 - not bad in 2025. The wings were good sized, fried well, and served with a Ken's Ranch cup. The "hot" sauce I'd rate at more of a medium spicy level. The pizza dough actually had flavor and a nice crisp on the bottom. read more

Papa K's is one of my families favorite pizza joints in town. The mom and Papa small business aspect makes for a favorable experience not to mention the sauce is a gift from above. I recommend the baked spaghetti and any of the pizzas. read more

I have only been in this area a few times but every time I'm in the area I see this place so I decided to try it for the first time and I was amazed on how GOOD the Pizza tasted got their pepperoni pizza and it was really good wish I tried that place earlier service was cool and it was a nice little diner definitely coming back here for the pizza read more

Oh the wings here are amazing! Great family atmosphere and service! Highly recommend the calzone- large and delicious! read more

There hours listed are not correct definitely upsetting when it's hot and fresh it's good pizza but the service is consistently poor I called and was hung up on and then I rang again just to be told they are closed on a Friday at 9 read more

Love the buttery crust on the calzone so good. Lots of cheese and meatballs inside. The wings were delicious. read more

Papa Kelsey's Pizza & Subs - Never disappointed in the food I get. Meatball calzone and honey bbq wings. Worth the drive from Scottsdale. - Pizza Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

We just ordered delivery, and it was terrible. Food was cold, boneless wings were completely soggy & not even warm... and we literally live up the street. I asked for well done on each pizza, and they were barely cooked, not well done at all. I had specific crusts put on each pizza for my kids, neither pizza had the specialty crust. Disappointing is an understatement. $65 down the drain. Will not be ordering from here again. read more

Food is always served hot and fresh for a great value. We've been going here for years and will continue.

We'll be back. We've lived nearby for 5 years, but always went into AJ for pizza. After terrible service at one notable place, we started trying others. Wish we'd found this place 5 years ago. It is a bit out of our way, but worth it. The pizza was tasty, good amount of toppings, not too much sauce, crust was even crispy after driving 7 miles where pizza usually gets soggy in the car. This didn't. Crust was perfect thickness, good flavor, so they know how to allow it to rise before going into the oven. Wings were good too. Not sure how there is a wing place right next door but no need to go in there. Prices were good, They have five ways to order online, but the "Arrowpos" is the best. No markup and you can order half and half easily online. You cannot on the others. I used to manage a good pizza place in Scottsdale in the 80's and this one didn't disappoint me. read more

This place has gone down hill. Half the pizza didn't have toppings. They're skimping big time while raising their prices. This is probably our last order. We've had enough. I'm so sad, but we've found another place we'll be ordering from, with better pizza and more toppings. Edit to add a picture of the pizza that was crust only. About 1/3 of it. We're still hungry. This "large" pizza doesn't feed 2. read more

I tried a pizza from here. Was really disappointed. But I decided to try them again today. Ordered a salad and half sandwich. I'm done. Sandwich was about 1/2" tall. Not good flavor. Salad was very boring. read more

Very rude and racially profiling was told to "get get on" get your shit and get out" before I had a chance to order And had the audacity to cuss me out not let me say anything and grab my belongs and threw it out side they way the staff talked was aggressive bad bad service for people of color the tone and attitude and judgement coming from this establishment is so embarrassing and down right wrong showing blatant discrimination and completely unacceptable behavior. I was a previous customer before and no longer will be eating at this xenophobic and hatred against indigenous people food place. I had nothing but nice things to stay and recommend multiple people and will not no more. if you are a friend or have indigenous family members or a friend to are people please do not stand by and allow there business to continue and treat people this way if color. read more

Papa Kelsey's was amazing all around. The food and service were great. It was an amazing experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with smiles and positive attitudes. It is such a welcoming environment. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious. We had a calzone, wings, Italian combo sub and the fried zucchini. My favorite were the wings they had the perfect amount of sauce and crisp. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and care about what they serve. read more

been going about 10 years food and service is great reminds me our old pizza place we owned highly recommended have referred other people and they love it read more

Got their pizza it was delicious!!we did pickup and they were right on time when we arrived

Lunch special -- 6 inch sub, side salad and cold beverage for $9.99. Great option when you want something quick, easy and fresh to order.

The app doesn't always come through correctly on the order so I recommend calling in your order. Great food and local business!

Not wanting to cook or clean, we called for pizza delivery. The gentleman that answered the phone had a little trouble understanding my address, but he eventually figured it out. We were given a 40-50 minute window for delivery, which was fine with us. Amazingly, our doorbell rang about 40 minutes after I called, which would be considered early per their time window, I was very pleased!!! We typically order Peperoni, Sausage, half black olive, half red onion. This pizza was exactly as ordered, and we were not overcharged in any way. The crust was perfectly cooked and there wasn't a greasy feeling at all, it was crisp and delicious. Usually, we can only eat half a pizza together, we nearly demolished the entire thing in one sitting, it was THAT good. I look forward to stopping in some day soon and trying out their other offerings! read more

We have been ordering from this family owned pizza place for three years and it's always amazing! You can eat inside the restaurant but we usually order online, or call in, and they deliver quickly and are super friendly! This is the only pizza we will eat now in Arizona as nothing compares to their hand tossed pizza! read more

Easy to order, great selection. Pizza cooked with special instructions just perfect! Buffalo Wings nice size with great tasting sauce.

Great subs with the best bread! Employees are very accommodating! Food is served quickly and as ordered!

Best pizza in the area. Their meatball subs are top notch. Great lunch specials and customer service.

Just started ordering here the last few weeks. Each time everything has been amazing and has so much flavor. The wings are always piping hot and fresh! The pizza is equally awesome. Highly recommend. Our new favorite pizza place! read more

I was in here today at 11:15 and the woman behind the counter that helped me was very very rude. She needs to be reprimanded!

My favorite mom and pop sub shop around. Been going here since I was a kid and it never disappoints! Amazing pizza too.

Best pizza in town . This is always the place to go. Friendly staff and excellent food read more

Consistently good and friendly service , your pizzas and subs are delicious , and your always offer deals daily !!!

Everything was fresh and delicious. Great crust, fresh ingredients, loved the cheese...wings were really well cooked with a lot of buffalo sauce (thank you!), salad was fresh and good sized. It'd be great if you made your own Ramch but Ken's isn't anything to be mad about! Priced very fair! Friendly staff and clean facilities! Keep it up, we will definitely be back! read more

Moved to the East Mesa a few years ago and missed our local pizza and wings joint so found this place online and we decided to try it and happy we did! Its your classic local pizza and wings joint! The prices were very good we ordered a family meal for $32 for a large pizza and order of wings and happy we did! The wings were LARGE and the pizza was perfect! The staff was very friendly too! The restroom does need refresh and paint and the parking lot seemed sketch but we will for sure be back for the food since its right down the street were we liv. Keep up the great work read more
