My son and I had an Italian sandwich and fries. Everything was good and delicious. We sat in the restaurant and it was nice. Service was good.

Chef Salad
Mike F.

The pizzeria that time forgot. Paparone's has been around for as long as I can remember. Definitely since the 1990s. Ok, just checked. They celebrated their 25th anniversary back in 2017. So they've been doing business since 1992. And you know what? I don't think they've updated their décor the whole time. It's still this hole-in-the-wall establishment. Looks like a dive bar from outside. The inside features grey stucco wall adorned with wooden pizza peels of various sizes. Silly me never tried the pizza here. Judging by the pictures from other diners, it looks great and is in the style of NY slices - big & floppy - the kind you have to fold in order to make things manageable. I pivoted and took a different route - chef salad, Italian sub, and a couple pasta dishes. Chef salad was massive. Black olives were a nice addition. Extremely generous with the meat/cheese. Rolled up nicely and sliced, making for convenient, bit-sized pieces. Italian sub was par for the course. Neither memorable or forgettable. It just "was." Kinda like, "We're going to put the Italian sub on our menu, because we're a pizzeria and we have to." I have no qualms with that. It satisfied my urge for Italian meats. The pastas are where things fell of the rails. Just a splatter of ho-hum sauce ladled onto rubbery, overcooked pasta. Both dishes were a notch above what you'd typically find in a hospital cafeteria. Really just a slog to eat. And eating should never feel like a chore. Gonna probably give Paparone's another shot. The pizza potential alone will get me back in the door. Until next time.

Slice of cheese pizza and slice of pepperoni pizza
Andrea G.

I absolutely love pizza so when I saw the good reviews I had to have some. After a few weeks of longing for it, I finally made my way down Penn Ave to try this pizza. Love that they have pizza by the slice, which is just what I wanted for my first time. Here's what I ordered: -Slice of Cheese Pizza ($2.25): was actually really good. They heated it up for me when I first ordered but I got home and needed it reheated. It was even good cold. I know if I order a whole cheese pizza it will be bomb. -Slice of Pepperoni Pizza ($2.75): eh, just okay. They make all cheese pizza and if you want pepperoni pizza they just add pepperonis to the already baked pie and then warm it up. I know it would taste different if the pepperoni was baked in with the cheese and crust. I also do not like the type of pepperonis they use. The ambiance is cool. There was an Italian game show on the tv very loudly but it gave the Italian feel to it. Very small shop but they have room for dine-in booths, beverage cooler and refrigerator for desserts. I will definitely go back to try a whole cheese pie & maybe a dessert or two to determine if they deserve that extra Yelp star.

Ordered a tomato pie with fresh mozzarella & basil with a side of onion rings and it tasted amazing. The delivery guy was nice and on time.

When I get in the mood for a good greasy pepperoni pizza there the best around. Add some sweet peppers and it's delicious
