I went with my daughter, her boyfriend, and his mother on a warm Saturday afternoon. They came to visit us from out of town, so we gave them a choice of three restaurants out here and let them choose which restaurant we'd go to. We're still on the fence. While I don't disagree that the food tastes good (with the exception to the pizza we ordered, but that's a different story--and a bit of a kitchen accident), I feel that for the price they charge for each entree, the portions should be a bit larger. We're a cowboy town--we need cowboy sized portions! I loved our server, although I am ashamed that I didn't get her name. She's exactly what I would expect from a small town: Friendly, personable and hardworking, She asked us how we liked our food, and actually appreciated our comments! This is where the pizza story enters: "Mom" and I ordered "JJ's specialty Pizza" (name was much longer from what I remember), and when we started eating, it just didn't seem to hit the mark for either of us. After a little investigation during the chat with our server, we realized what our pizza seemed to be missing, why it was kind of dry--the kitchen forgot the base sauce! The server apologized, even offered us a new pizza, but we were already done, so we politely declined. When she brought us our check, she brought Mom and I each our own slice of cake as a sort of apology, along with a cup full of the special pizza sauce, so it can be drizzled over the pizza ! It might have been better to just refund the pizza, but I appreciated the gesture nonetheless. We will be back. I always give restaurants a second chance as long as they are good people/establishment--everyone has a bad day once in a while! As long as they hit the mark next time, we'll jump over to their side of the fence as regular customers. If not... Fingers crossed! read more

Amazing pizza! Unmatched ambiance! Perfect people! If I could own my own pizza place, it would be a replica of this!

Great pizza and friendly staff. Closed Sunday and Monday. Low key chill spot, small local spot that does great pizza and food.

What an amazing place! Just moved to town and of course we had to get pizza on moving day! I was welcomed to the neighborhood and had my first beer on them! Such a friendly and nice place! Highly recommended! read more

So bummed they changed their fettuccini Alfredo recipe. The way they made it before was soooo amazing. The sauce was different, thicker, and you can taste the fresh garlic. Now it's just more watered down and doesn't taste the same :/ have gotten it twice and it hasn't been the same. I got it hoping it was different just that one time, but I'm guessing they changed it. Don't know why :( also, didn't get my garlic cheese bread this time. :/ read more

I live near Papa's House and have been there many times. It matters to them that they serve quality food and that you enjoy it. And the service is friendly. Be sure to appreciate the signage, produced by Berri, the artist-in-residence. Nice mountain views out the front window and from the outdoor dining. read more

Great people, good pizza. Lots of choices and specialty pizzas to choose from. Very small dine in area but there are benches outside.

My family and I visited this place for the first time a couple weeks ago. We were staying at a resort about a mile away from this place. When we walked in my family and I noticed the decor instantly. It was clean inside and the interior decor looked like I was in a family friend's home. The decor had a personal touch. We were greeted promptly by a friendly woman and asked if we were ready to order. Their menu has a variety of foods. We decided on a pizza, a green salad, an appetizer (zucchini sticks) and two desserts (slice of chocolate cake and beignets) because we couldn't choose just one dessert. The food was delicious and hot. The desserts tasted freshly made. We did not plan on coming here but came across this place on our way to a vacation spot. We were pleasantly surprised with the customer service and quality of food.This is a must try spot if you are in Tehachapi. We will be coming back to try different items on the menu. read more

See all

Pizza is amazing and the service is great! The sauces taste fresh and the pizza dough is perfect, not too thin and not too thick. read more

Great pizza, friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere. Businesses like this makes Stallion Springs a special place to call home.

My son, granddaughter and I decided to go out for dinner and we thought we would try this restaurant because we had never been there. We were wonderfully surprised. The welcoming waitress could not have been sweeter which is always a good start. We ordered appetizers and the sauces that were served were homemade and delicious. My son loved his pizza and my granddaughter's chicken sandwich was not only made with the freshest chicken, vegetables and bun but had a beautiful presentation. Our side salads were impressive, they actually make their croutons rather than the type you usually get with small salads. We loved it and will be back soon. read more

Very nice staff and best pizza around must try any of there chicken pizzas and salads .. but all pizzas are great and there loaded French fries Amazing. Recommend a must try. read more

I live in bear valley and travel every weekend to eat here great service and pizza amazing burgers best in tehachapi

Great food and super friendly staff. No waiting, we were seated and we ordered in less than 10 min. Drinks came out immediately. And then appetizers within 10 minutes. Food was fast. Food was very tasty. After we paid our bill we exited the restaurant. The waitress came running out calling us. I had dropped my wallet and she found it and returned it to me. Because of this I gave the restaurant 5 stars. Food I would say 4. But in the times we live in having an honest person return something is really awesome! Thanks read more

Coming from Orange County and LA, we always have high expectations for food. We were completely shocked at how good this restaurant is. In our opinion, this place is the best restaurant in Tehachapi. Some places are priced similarly but the quality of food here is a lot better. This is the best pizza place we have been to California! read more

Yummy pizza and sammys, but my favorite is the pasta salad with grilled chicken! The service is excellent, the food is delicious, and the delivery guys are just so sweet!! I always like to support family businesses, this business makes you feel like family! We love you read more

Best pizza west of NYC! Wonderful burgers and sides, great people, you can't go wrong eating here.

I have eaten here several times with my family and the food was always great. Pizza, wings, salad and they actually had a draft beer selection. There is seating both indoor and outdoor, it can be busy at times but still great food. If you have time this place is worth the drive. Tehachapi has some good restaurants but if you are out and about wine tasting in the local area I would recommend stopping by Papa's for lunch or dinner. read more

My husband and I love eating here! We eat here anytime we don't feel like cooking. The reason I'm giving it three stars is for their delivery option. We've ordered out for delivery about three times and haven't been satisfied with the food. It's been cold or just not as good as when you dine in, which is understandable. This last time we ordered burgers (which have been amazing when we've dined in). The burgers looked great on the outside, but my husband discovered part way through his burger that the patty was almost raw and crumbling. It's safe to say we won't be ordering delivery or dining in for awhile. read more

Papa’s House - Uncooked burger - Pizza Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Family owned business very nice people. My main thing I get there it's a Pizza call hero. As well some buffalo wings

Pizza crust is amazing! Investigate their specialty pies, we were boring and got the all meat.

I've traveled all over and thought I'd tasted some of the best hamburgers across the country. I was definitely wrong. Our first time to Papas house was to order their wonderful hamburger. I brought it home and after eating it I felt like I needed to go back and give them more money it was so good. Alana really knows how to cook a burger. You won't be disappointed. Suggestion is to always ask for crispy fries. read more

I just want to say that Papa's House is a great place to eat. The new owners, Dan & Christine Desmond are good people. Papa's House looks great, their food is delicious & they really care about Stallion. I suggest the Stuffed Portobello Appetizer, it's one of my favs. Papa's has something to offer everyone. Lunch & Dinner service, great beer choices, kids menu, take out, & NOW Delivery. Papa's Staff has always been friendly & helpful. So stop by eat...enjoy...repeat. I'm hooked.

It's good just depends on the cook sometimes it's amazing and some times it gross. But over all is a good food place

The pizza is amazing here. The ingredients are fresh and pizza is always hot. The price is a little steep but remember paying for quality is better than quantity. The staff is polite and made sure I felt at home. Thank you for amazing pizza read more

I am not one to normally make a review of any place I like regardless of how amazing I think it is, but I felt like I had to take a moment to share how much I think Papa's House is a gem! I was passing through the town and stopped at this restaurant and was so delighted to be greeted by the incredibly friendly staff. Everything about the restaurant felt like a home welcoming environment. Also the food was so tasty! I could even wait until I got home to start eating! I would recommend Papa's House to anyone who appreciates amazing food with amazing and loving service!! read more

Came here yesterday with family, were here visiting from the LA area. I was completely blown away by the freshness and quality of the food. I honestly would have never expected to find amazing pizza in this town. I consider myself a foodie and you can really tell that the chef pours his heart out into his product! Also the service was amazing, our server was Jennifer and she was very helpful and on point with the service. Food: 10 Service: 10 read more

Had another fantastic meal thanks to Barrie (always smiling, kind, and knowledgeable). This is the 5th time we've eaten here and have always enjoyed it. They have great pizza's, salads, and wings. Don't forget the rotating taps of ice cold beer. We had a really good blood orange hefe that hit the spot. My family and I will definitely be back for the great food and exceptional service. read more

Friendly customer service and great food. We had Pizza at Papas on Monday night and it was so so good. The crust was perfect and our server was amazing. He even chatted with us for a few. We also snuck in a game of tether ball while waiting for our food which is located just in front of the outside dinning area. Can't wait to go back!! read more

and to set the record straight cost you more than $10 means you not having my business I just can't believe you guys let me leave your store without a gift certificate to make me happy over a $17 burger now I'm more read more

Some of the most friendly and accommodating staff of any restaurant I've visited. The small town feel was exactly what we were looking for. Food was delicious but the servers treated you like family which is rare to find. read more

We are new to the area and we have probably eaten here a dozen times already lol. The employees are so kind and friendly. They will customize anything to your liking which unfortunately most places won't. The fettuccine Alfredo is delicious (I just wish is was always saucy, sometimes it's on the dry side but it's still delicious) the side salad and cheese bread it comes with is great too. The turtle pizza is a unique combination that's bursting with flavor. My daughter loves the Reese's cake. Papa's House is a huge asset to the community and we are lucky to have them. They deliver which is a huge bonus. Give them a try! read more

Our first time back after the renovation and were delighted. Although the burger was not medium as advertised it was delish.... I adapted the Warrior burger to a bun, switched the jalapeno with Ortega and the onions and mushrooms were grilled.... a winner in my book! Will try again and ask for medium so it's juicy read more
