I have visited pappa z multiple times mostly for convenience as I live close by. Only ate in once the service was so bad. Waited nearly 30 minutes before greeted at table and given menus. No apology. Have done takeout a few times and the service there is just as bad. Pizza is descent but expensive. I now visit other... More

If you're in the area, this is a great place to grab some dinner. Their pizza is in slices (not squares) and its really good. Pair that with a side salad and you have dinner for two under $20.

We've eaten there a number of times now and we haven't got a bad meal yet. I would highly recommend it - the menu is unbelievable. It has a little... More

There are better pizza places relatively close I would suggest. Rossinis, Plum Tomato, Illianos, and on and on and on... The enviornment also was... More
