    Garlic Cheese Bread...
    Scott W.

    So your favorite Yelp correspondent can now claim that he's experienced all sides of Papa Pie and the so called Daddy of local pizza parlors. To paraphrase an old Clint Eastwood film, here's the good, bad and ugly of Papa Pie... The Bad- As a part time Uber Courier, I've made a pair of deliveries from Papa Pie and both times experienced first hand what other Yelpers have justifiably yelped about... Interminably long wait times of 15-20 minutes AFTER my arrival to the restaurant. Unacceptable given that Uber Eats orders are supposed to be ready within a couple minutes, tops, of when I get my notification of the gig. Doubly bad because these wait times cause my "prorated hourly earnings" to nosedive faster than a Nipponese fighter pilot at Pearl Harbor AND because at this point only my personal honor and integrity "to complete the mission" compel me to carry out each delivery. [Note: Uber drivers are given an opportunity to cancel late restaurant orders when the restaurant is to blame] On both of my deliveries, I noticed a plethora of younger, teenaged employees largely milling around, faces buried in their phones and paying little to no attention to incoming orders on Papa Pie's Kitchen Delivery System (KDS) screen. Both times I distinctly noticed how both of my client's orders hadn't even been presented to the KITCHEN before my arrival. A noticeable and candidly galling breakdown in training and work flow that can and should be addressed, stat. The GOOD?! My personal experience with Papa Pie this past Monday night was very good. I was jonesing for well made Italian pizza and had placed my order for a ten-inch BBQ Chicken pie w/ a side of garlic cheese bread when I accepted an 18-mile delivery from a rival Cucina to Rancho Cucamonga. Nonplussed and determined to preserve my order, I asked the lady behind the counter if they could keep my food in the warmer 'til I returned in around an hour. I subsequently returned 55 minutes later to find my food sufficiently warm. When I tore into it at the house, the pizza was very good, a rock solid 4 stars. Ditto for the cheesy, garlicky breadsticks. The lone reason I've deducted a star is because of personal preference for the sweeter crusts employed by California Pizza Kitchen and Papa John's. Papa Pie's crust is sufficiently thick, crusty and doughy ... but just lacks that slight honey wheat imbued sweetness that a pair of his rivals utilize. The restroom was suitably clean and stocked and my order cost me $23.47 incl taxes.

    Regular Cheese Pizza (Large)
    Aaron R.

    amazing recipe! oh my, i ordered a large pepperoni pizza and the quality is amazing! the crust is fresh and crispy, and the sauce is a wonderful tomato mix. the cheese and toppings were so fresh and delicious. i was surprised at the quality of the ingredients, soooo good i would very much recommend papa pizza pie!!!

    Papa's Supreme Pizza no onion.
    Cindy M.

    The pizza was so good, I love the sauce and the crust was light and crispy. The lady at the register was nice and helpful. It's a roomy place with a few big TVs on the wall. Order and than sit. Great place for pizza, I can't wait to try the sandwiches.

    Pineapple and cheese pizza (I screwed up the order and put the Canadian bacon on my other pizza) but still they hooked it up with the pina.

    2nd time coming here...one of my favorite local-ish pizza places. They are very generous with toppings and cheese. Crust is fluffy and crunchy. They had a current deal of 2 med 2 topping pizzas and a 2 liter for $23.99 or something like that. Either way not a bad deal especially for the quality. My wife loved their antipasto salad that thing came in fully loaded. Ready time wasn't long either like 15 min on a Friday night !

    BBQ Chicken pizza
    Geoff H.

    A better pizza? I haven't found one yet. Best of all, they do a great gluten free crust. Paired with their above average toppings and you get a really good GF pizza that doesn't feel like a compromise. My family loves their regular crust also.

    Angel Hair Pasta
    May W.

    Parking: Plenty of parking spaces. Great place to eat with groups and family. Angel Hair Pasta: Angel hair pasta tossed with tomatoes and basil topped with mozzarella cheese. There's a lot of noodles but overall the dish was bland compared to Cheesecake Factory. I would recommend ordering other dishes like their chicken Alfredo or pizzas.

    Ordering from the menu board when I got the bill it was more than what the board said it should be . I asked about the cost and the girl said that the prices up on the board were old . I asked to get a refund because I was paying for the prices that were on the board not knowing what the new prices were . She said that she could not do that and there wasn't a manager there to help me . The girl was extremely rude , constantly on the phone , and very unaccommodating .

    The food I threw away.
    Bob P.

    Just threw away $55 of food. The person who delivered my food was messy looking and didn't say a word (that I could recall). All I could think about was, is my food ok. Call the store asking if the delivery person was their employee, thinking they might be a DoorDash type. The store assured me that he was their employee. Too many good pizza places just need to look around.

    OMG...I lived a half block from an amazing pizza spot in Downtown Boston back in 2006. I've been waiting for anything even close to that level and today is the day. We got 3 kinds tonight. Cheese for the kids, heirloom tomato slice and a slice of Jalapeño Prosciutto. Topped it off with the most crisp Cesar salad and some ranch dressing. Bottom of the pizza had a crispy crust and the most amazing flavors. Even my kids said it was the best pizza! Should have gotten a picture of the heirloom tomato pizza. This was the best pizza I have had in almost 20 years.

    Papa Pizza Pie Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Papa Pizza Pie

    Are they open for dine in?

    Yes, but they didn't wait on us at our table. We ordered our food and took it to our table.

    Is it true that you got rid of the Yelp check-in offer? Because it's still visible on Yelp.

    I asked about the check in offer last time I went a couple weeks ago and they said it was only valid on Dine-in. Since no one can dine in, I suppose we can't use it until things open up again.

    I saw in uber it says halal?

    Yes we do have halal options. If you have any question please feel free to call the store at 714-278-4448

    Is there buffet?

    Yes there is a daily lunch buffet which includes salad bar, pizza and pasta. Kudos to the Salad Bar and I'm lukewarm about the pizza and pasta.

    Any menu items that are gluten free and vegan?

    They have a nice variety of vegan and gluten free options from pizza to pasta and including desserts.

    This month Eddie's is offically celebrating their 41st birthday…read more Congratulations!!! Almost 20 years of my enjoying Spaghetti Eddie's great food & service. I have told many people about my personal experiences here and everyone that has visited the restaurant from my suggestions were impressed with the food and excellent service. I am temporarily living out of the area, but always make Eddie's one of my first restaurant visits when I return home. My favorite food is true Italian recipe based and Eddie's uses some of the finest ingredients and seasonings I've sampled. From main courses to salads and desserts, everything is delicious and obviously prepared from scratch. Visit the restaurants website and sign up for their monthly specials. These limited edition offerings are available all month long and everyone a stand-out in my opinion. Lunch specials are a real value and the quality is never compromised. Many of the staff have been with Eddie's for ten or more years and really enjoy their jobs and wouldn't want to work anywhere else. I read a review of Eddie's made recently by a patron and needed to update my review of Eddie's made several years ago. This restaurant would not be as successful as it has been for so many years without taking good care of their guests. My experience with servers has shown that they will do anything in their power to make your visit a happy one with great food and service to match. Mike, one of the managers that I have become acquainted with over the years would not let anyone leave without their being fully satisfied with their dining experience. This restaurant truly wants to have repeat customers that look forward to each and every visit. About a 15 minute drive east of Eddie's in Glendora are two sister restaurants in the community of Claremont that Eddie has also created very successfully thanks to the expertise of Eddie demanding quality food and service for each and every guest. You can't grow to this level without giving your guest what they expect from a superior dining experience. Eddie's Italian Eatery on West Foothill in Claremont has a menu similar to the Glendora location. This location is only a bit over 20 years old, somewhat new compared to Glendora. The upscale masterpiece of Eddie's is "Tutti Mangia-Italian Chophouse" located on Harvard Ave. in historic downtown Claremont. Fine dining at its best with an elegant setting and food to match. A special treat for anyone wanting the most special evening of elegant dining. It's worth the drive to experience the menu and decor. This location has experienced 30 years of success and is a very popular restaurant in the college town of Claremont. When you visit any of the three restaurants that Eddie operates you will be well treated and served some of the most authentic Italian food available anywhere. I never hesitate to make a 15 mile drive to a restaurant that truly has exceptional food and service.

    After recently reading an extremely negative review made appx 2 weeks ago about Spaghetti Eddie's,…read moreI felt compelled to share my own experience--especially as someone who has lived in this area for 50 years and has watched our community change tremendously over the decades. I remember when the Mayflower Shopping Center was thriving and nearly every storefront was occupied. Unfortunately, many businesses have come and gone over the years. But Spaghetti Eddie's is still here--41 YEARS later! That alone says something. You don't remain in business for more than four decades without doing something right. They have weathered years of change, economic challenges, and even the incredibly difficult COVID era. During that time, they adapted their operations so they could continue serving the community that has supported them for so many years. Yes, the shopping center may not look like it did years ago, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of this restaurant. In fact, on any given night, you may still have trouble finding a close parking spot because Spaghetti Eddie's is packed! When it comes to something as serious as a food allergy, however, I strongly believe we all have a responsibility to advocate for our own safety as well. If you have a severe allergy, it is always wise to double-check your order before leaving the restaurant. Placing the entire burden on a young employee--who may even be working their very first job--without acknowledging our own responsibility seems unfair. No restaurant is perfect, and mistakes can happen anywhere. But I believe a business should be judged by the overall experience it consistently provides--not defined by one incident or one extremely negative review. My family and I have always felt welcomed here. The entire staff works hard, and we have received wonderful service over the years. And I have to give a special shoutout to Manny! He is absolutely amazing at his job and someone I highly recommend. He recently suggested the mushroom soup with truffle oil--something I probably never would have ordered because I tend to stick with my favorites. I am SO glad I listened to him. It was incredible! And here's a tip: dip the bread in the soup. You can thank me later! Then there's the calamari. I order calamari almost everywhere I go, and Spaghetti Eddie's lightly cooked calamari remains one of my absolute favorites. So, before allowing someone else's negative review to make your decision for you, go experience Spaghetti Eddie's yourself and form your own opinion. Think about what 41 years in business really represents: thousands of customers, family dinners, birthdays, celebrations, first dates, longtime regulars, hardworking employees, and countless memories created around their tables. As someone who has called this community home for 50 years, I appreciate the businesses that have stood the test of time--and Spaghetti Eddie's certainly has. 41 years strong, and there's a reason for it. Give them a try. Order the mushroom soup with truffle oil, get the calamari, and enjoy your evening. Spaghetti Eddie's continues to have my support!

They cook their pasta perfect to my family's taste, with a bite (al dente), but done enough that it's not chewy or floury. Fair prices. And yummy desserts. We really enjoyed the tasty Crab Cake app. We all liked our pasta, particularly me, who had the Mushroom Ravioli with the same sauce that comes on the Beef and Mushroom Ravioli. I think there was a Mushroom Ravioli special with a different sauce, but they did it with the sauce I really wanted to try, which was much appreciated! We enjoyed the Spumoni pie--Spumoni ice cream with a graham cracker(?) pie crust. They also made us a traditional Affogato, because that's what my dad likes. But I want to try their version next time. I'm really excited to go back and try their pizza. We'll get one with sausage, since the sausage on my dad's pasta was really outstanding. I also want to try their Caesar Salad. Looking forward to my next visit!

    Came by on a Saturday night at 8 PM and it was decently busy. We ordered the garlic rolls…read moreminestrone soup and a linguine pasta with shrimp and a lobster Brandy cream sauce. The pasta was delicious five out of five very rich and Hardy creamy sauce and a hint of Lobster flavor. Shrimps were cooked perfectly. The garlic rolls, however, had no garlic flavor. Maybe they dusted it with garlic powder. And they were a little bit burnt and randomly sized as somewhere tiny and somewhere large. The minestrone soup was OK, but I normally don't like soup so I would personally pass on it.

    We LOVE this place! We come here regularly for The Regina pizza. All of their food is super…read moredelicious and fresh. It's definitely not like your ordinary pizza place. The family who runs the business is also so kind and friendly! There were a few times we showed right before closing and they were still so accommodating and quick! They do a lot of events in other cities so definitely check their Instagram to see where they're at before going!

    Italia Pasta e Pizza is a spot I highly recommend checking out! They're a family-owned business run…read moreby owners originally from Italy, so you can expect authentic Neapolitan-style pizza. They're typically located in Covina, but I recommend checking their Instagram page before visiting since their location can occasionally change for events. I initially went to the address listed on Google and Yelp, only to find they weren't there. After checking Instagram, I learned they were participating in the West Covina Electric Boba Fest & Night Market. Each pizza is made to order and took about 15 minutes to prepare. I ordered the Diavola, and it came out with a beautiful char throughout the crust that added a delicious smoky flavor. The pizza was perfectly saucy, the crust was light and pillowy, and every bite had the right amount of cheese. I can definitely see the care, love and quality that goes into each pizza.

    We came here on a Friday at 1:45 pm and we were the only table dining. The vibe is really elegant…read moreand nice, as they played soft classical music in the back and with barely any chattering from anyone. The server was really nice, introducing and recommending dishes to us. I don't know how authentic their Italian dishes are, but here are some dishes that stood out to me: Orrechiette (9.5/10): a bit on the oily side, but it tastes really good with the Italian sausage and broccolini. Ravioli (9/10): I didn't know you can put beef inside ravioli until today. I always thought ravioli is filled with cheese. Starter bread (9.7/10): It is crunchy and airy at the same time. It tastes exceptionally good with the salted butter they provide. It is also free and refillable Red beets salad (8.5/10): I actually don't know the real name. I just remember the red beets taste really good. Daily special seafood (9/10): Also a bit on the oily side but their ingredients are fresh. I really love their shrimps. Tiramisu (6/10): Not the best tiramisu I had because it is more liquid. The server says they never add rum to it. Prosciutto e Burrata (8/10): I was expecting more from this dish but it tastes pretty basic. Nothing special or impressive.

    I have been coming to Vincenzos since before they moved to this location. The location itself is…read morefine. Sometimes a little stuffy due to the historical building it's in. I would be willing to forgive these things were it not for the declining quality in customer service from the hostess. I have been knowing the hostess, maybe she's the manager/owner too since even before they moved. Many happy memories were had in the previous location and she also seemed in much better spirits back then. Food quality has gone down. The prices are reasonable, however. But you walk in and are asked if you have a reservation. If you say yes, much joy! If you say no, it's like you've created a major inconvenience for them. Myself and wife have sat in the little bench waiting to be seated and we can definitely tell that reservation guests get treated much nicer than walk-ins. My advice is do not walk-in, make a reservation if you want to try this place. The spark is gone and I don't know who's in charge now but there are other better, much more customer service oriented places, around La Verne.
