My husband and I have passed by this pizzeria dozens of times since we moved to the area, and we finally decided to give it a try this week. The menu spans a surprisingly diverse array of entrees, given the fact that it calls itself a pizzeria. Pizzas can be purchased by the slice or as freshly made pies, and we opted to try a mushroom and sausage slice from the counter. The food is decent. I thought both pizza slices could have used more sauce, but both had impressively rigid crusts after their trip in the oven, so much that there were audible crunches when we took our first bites. My husband opted for a Mediterranean salad and asked for chicken to be added on top. Imagine our surprise when we got the salad and there was not only a steaming pile of seasoned chicken slices, but also big slices of fried eggplant. I would've never expected such a fantastic salad from a humble pizzeria, but my husband promised the owner he'd be returning just for that salad. The fried calamari, on the other hand, was more of a disappointment, with a salty exterior and a few tough and rubbery pieces. I don't think anyone ever visits a pizzeria for its ambiance, but this was definitely one that's seen better days. The restaurant seems a little on the older side, and the signs appeared to be yellowing. That said, the folks behind the counter were incredibly warm and hardworking, and I like to support such a local neighborhood spot. I can't believe I'm saying this about a pizzeria, but as far as Papa's goes, I say - come try the pizza; stay for the salad. read more

Papas pizzeria has delicious food and I personally would say they make one of the best marinara sauces that I've tried from almost any pizzeria locally. The grilled chicken salads are amazing. It doesn't matter what type of salad you got the grilled chicken they make is really good whether you get it well done or regularly. It's always delicious. They actually make amazing sandwiches also and the service is great, for example, the workers are well educated on the menu and the menu items and if they don't know the answer to a question, they will always ask, which is great. It's a really chill place to be. They have five tables altogether and it's comfortable there and spacious at the same time. There is a new menu that I added the pictures to so that way it's updated. I would recommend that you trying a grilled chicken anything because the grilled chicken is really good or chicken Parm sandwich is good also if you like pork, I would recommend the meatballs. They are delicious. This pizzeria also has beef patties, which is a rarity and they have the best brand of beef patties if you are around Bogota stop by and try Papa's pizzeria! read more

When I lived in this area roughly a decade ago, this is where we always had dinner every Wednesday. Specifically that day because it's when they had their special. Of course it was the first place I ate at since I'm in town for the week visiting. I gave my nephew the menu and had him pick. He decided to be adventurous and picked the Taco Pie. I told him I love tacos. My verdict from 10 years ago stands today. I don't love the pies here, but they do the job. They can be a little pricey for what you get. I did notice last night that I was charged the same amount for the Large size even though I opted for medium. I didn't notice it until I got home. Service has always been good. No complaints there. Will I come back? Definitely not by choice. It happens to be just steps away from my sister's house so....... read more

Good food. Friendly atmosphere. Healthy food as well.....they are polite and hard workers

If you like raw bacon on your pizza this is the place to be! Manager said this is what they have and that's it. Sorry but I prefer not to get food poisoning. read more

What a great slice of pizza! Wonderful taste and just the right texture, crisp crust and chewy pizza! If you live near this pizzeria, you don't know how lucky you are. I will come back just for this slice of New Jersey/New York. read more

Flew into NY but after cancelled flights and delays, wanted to get out of the city ASAP. After 14 hours of travel, I was hangry and tired and just needed to eat something. Should have stayed in the city. Bottom was crisp but in a burnt way, sauce wasn't anything special. Greasy. Definitely needs more flavor and more cheese. Not satisfied, but it was edible. read more

The person answering the phone can't understand you and the order will be wrong. Ordered pizza and sandwiches both times everyone got bubble guts. read more

Great local place to kill your cravings with any type of pizza, among many other things. Their subs are great!

The pizza is neither good or cheap. The sauce is very weak and cheese is bit salty, or maybe it's the other way around? It is also limp and at $2 a slice, overpriced. This is the type of pizza you would find at a high school or middle school. There are no other pizza by the slice options in the area, so they receive a lot of business through default. Do not make the mistake of coming here through choice. Only by necessity... read more

The food is always on point and they have great costumer service. The girls that answers the phone are always very sweet.

Great place. The owner is real nice I've had rice balls for the first time tonight and they were amazing. I've had the pizza here a few times too and its really good. I'm definitely coming back. read more

Pap's pizzeria is a sad establishment. I honestly could make a better sandwich in my own kitchen. I got a tuna wrap, literally looked like someone put tuna, one piece of lettuce, and decided to put it on my table. Honestly... it was awful. My sister got a burger and felt the exact same way. The burger was dry, tasteless and not even well cooked. It was a sincere waste of a $12. Go somewhere else if you're looking for a decent meal. AVOID this place at all costs. read more

Ok, I'm confused by all the low ratings. It might be because of the service but taste-wise, this is the best pizza in the area. The sauce and dough is seasoned, texture of the dough is perfect. Don't order tuna wraps, wings. Go across the street for them, Gerdes for sandwiches and Pek Pek for wings... Angelo's changed ownership and they still don't have their act together. read more

If I could give this place 0 star, I would. We ordered pizza and wings there twice, and both times they came awful. The wings were not evenly coated and it lacked sauce and flavor; after a few bites of some of the wings, I found some meat close to the bone uncooked!! Gross! Chicken wings are so easy to make and you can find it everywhere. To be honest, I have never eaten any wings that are remotely awful like the one in Papa's pizzeria, never ate such awful wings ever anywhere else. Their pizza taste like raw flour mixed with yeast, towards the edge of the pie. Similarly, I have never eaten any pizza as terrible as this anywhere else. There is one pizzeria on Palisades Ave in Bogota, right off Main St, called "Palisades Pizza and Deli". They are always busy - their food is always fantastic!! No matter what you order!! They take their time to cook, make it right and many things taste like homemade. We absolutely adore Palisades Pizza and Deli. We stick to them when ordering take out deli locally. read more

Used to be one of my favorite pizza places...when I say used to be I mean many years ago. I live around the corner & got to see the unfortunate rise and fall of Papa's Pizzeria. Pizza is ok at best. Prices are reasonable but that's all you're going to get from here. read more

Been eating Papas pizza for years. Yesterday I picked up a Large Cheese pizza and it was made perfect. I also had a Hero sandwich (The Roma) and it was amazing!! Definitely will continue to eat Papas pizza. read more

This is my favorite local pizzeria! I've been coming here for years and the pizza is consistently amazing. I usually order on Wednesday's bc it's $9.35 for a large pie (toppings are additional). I recently tried their Italian sub and it was hearty enough for two meals. Highly recommend! read more

Worst place ever ask them make u a sandwich they but anything in there then when u ask them they say I make u a new sandwich they take it on the side and start pick on it read more

The best place to get food for Sunday Night Football. Whether it's chillin with your bros or forcing your girl to watch with you, this place is the spot to get food from. I always get my orders on time and the service is great. Top favorites from me and the bros have got to be their Suasage Pepperoni Pizza, and their Chicken Parm. Will be ordering from here for years to come read more

Thought I would give this place a 2nd chance, bought Shrimp parm last nite price was $9.50 all I got was 5 small pieces of breaded shrimp place on top of 1lb of pasta with a little sauce drizzled on top and some mozzarella cheese on top! do you guys even know what parmesan means! SMH read more

2012 Update I don't know what happened to the food here, but it is definitely not what it used to be! I'm sitting here eating a Pizza Margherita that was made with canned tomatoes. Really? Never in my life have I eaten a slice of Pizza Margherita that was not made with fresh tomatoes. They used to have good salads. I used to enjoy their Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad, but that was years ago. I ordered it a few months ago and it was unrecognizable compared to it's previous preparation. This time the croutons were tiny and square and easily from a box, the dressing was cheap food service grade dressing, and the rest of the salad was totally forgettable. We also used to like to order their spaghetti and meatballs, until the last time we ordered that which was also several months ago. Their once mild sauce which tasted like it was authentically home cooked was now way too salty and spicy. Their meatballs had more breading than meat. It was actually very embarrassing. Here I am telling family members that they have good food and then we order a meal to be delivered and it's horrible! I really didn't want to write this update and have been putting it off but after today's pizza, I felt that it had to be said. I really wish Papa's would step up their game and bring back the quality of food that they used to serve. 2008 Original This place serves good food. My office used to order lunch from them many times. They serve one of the best pizza slices that you will find in NJ, almost as good as NY pizza. ;) All of their portions are huge. Usually always enough pasta or salad or hero to share with another person. Their plain cheese pie is good, but their pizza margherita, which I have only seen there a few times is just incredible. They also serve personal pies which are made to order. I would recommend anything on the menu as I, or anyone I know who has eaten there, has never been disappointed. read more

This was pretty bad. Everything tasted really cheap and like they just didn't care. Sauce tasted like Prego, cheese tasted like chemicals. Also, the girl behind the counter set our box down on a fresh pie. Getting grease and sauce on the bottom of the box, not to mention a box on top of food people were going to eat. She was super friendly but come on, that's pretty gross. Definitely won't be back here any time soon, not even if I'm at Andy's and am craving a slice to go with my beer. read more

You ppl r crazy down below, their pizza is awesome.... Then again i lived in lyndhurst for the past few years n i had a better chance of getting struct by lightening then finding a good slice of pizza in that town. I like it. Im going to order a pie right now read more

Jeez, people. Why y'all so dark on Papa's? I've ordered pies for the office a few times and have only ever gotten nods of approval as my coworkers cram in those tasty slices. Service has always been just fine. read more

I just called for a delivery to be made, and the girl who answer my call was the worst and nasty person I have deal with, I call very often because my kids like the pizza, but it is the last time I call this place. It's a shame that this happen, but I wish to know the owners phone number so I could make the complaint to him. read more

I recently moved back to Teaneck and while I have never given it a chance in the past, I am now down the street and figured, why not?! The pizza is pretty good, and probably better than what I expected. They have $8.00 pizzas on Wednesdays and the quality is always the same. The people who work there are also nice and don't give an attitude when they are busy, We have since created pizza Wednesday because this place and would definitely call it one of the best deals in town! If you wanna give it a chance, get a pie on a Wednesday, you won't be disappointed! read more

Pizza is ok here but the star of the show is the meatballs. If you come here get the meatball parm or meatballs with sauce. They were delicious. Would definitely return for them. read more

I got a veggie pie and it was so greasy and disgusting. When I picked up a slice all the toppings slid off. Not to mention, the dough wasn't fully cooked and it tasted raw. I also ordered garlic knots and i'm not even surprised that they were stale. read more

I order from here all the time and love the food and pizza! Everything I have ordered is reasonably priced and you really can't go wrong with the sandwiches or entrees! read more

Pizza is ok. Timing is terrible. Quoted 20 minutes to pick up. It has now been nearly an hour. Still standing here waiting.

I ordered 2 sandwiches. The first one was a buffalo chicken hero, it was empty. There was 1 inch of just bread on both sides of the sandwich. I basically bought a loaf of bread, sprinkled with chicken. The second was a shrimp parm, there was parts of the tail shell inside the sandwich. read more

I have been going to this papa's pizzeria 265 Queen Ann rd. Bogota, nj for about a year. In my last two orders, I have noticed something different about the pizza but today I got to see what was going on. I saw the pizza guy take out the pizza and he was taking it out half of a section of a pie and then individual slices to complete the large pie which was what I ordered. It seems as if they just took sections and slices that they had around to put this pie together. The cashier girl took the pizza in the carton box and acted as she was cutting out the slices when I already had seen what the pizza guy had taken out of the oven. It was a really weird atmosphere in this pizzeria which I have never experienced before. When I got home, some of the slices were burned on the bottom. I never expected that they would not just make a fresh pie for the 14.00 dollars I had paid for it, not this. I didn't call to complain because what is the point if you can't trust if they are doing this to other people too. I certainly would not be going there again. read more

Ive been ordering pizza from Papas for sometime now and they have delicious food. My kids enjoy their pizza and I enjoy their antipasta salad and fried calamari. They also take credit cards which is a plus for me. read more

I live right by it so it is convenient. The food is well priced. I don't know of any other pizza place that you can get a Veal Parm dinner for $10.00 or a baked ziti for $6.50. The food is good and the service is friendly. It is now my go to spot. read more
