Ordered 2 pizzas and garlic bread. Had them put extra cheese on both pizzas. The pizzas were still not gooey and cheesy. And the mest toppings were anemic. Also, the crust was chewy. I wound up eating up to the crust and pitching it. The garlic bread was dry and not at all garlicky and buttery. All in all, a severe disappointment!
Big Mama's and Papa's Pizzeria
We haven't visited BMPP in Burbank in over a decade! We had moved out of the area and were forced to change our diets so we decided to introduce pizza back into our lives to see if I was going to have an allergic reaction. I never ate their pizza because I am allergic to tomatoes so I always ordered their wings. Back in the day, we would usually meet up with our friends and have the usual, drunk, late night munchies meetups here. We ended up moving out of the area and moved back so we decided to pay them a visit.
The location is great as it's on the corner of Alameda and Glen Oaks. They also have plenty of parking. The restaurant is bigger than I remembered and it has a full bar. I remembered they served beer back in the day but never knew they had a bar! This place is great to watch sports, too as the bar area have several big screen TVs. They also still have their infamous tabletop pizza! It's a pizza as big as a four top table! You can do a pizza challenge with it or it can serve a dozen people, I would imagine so this restaurant is great for large gatherings!
The staff has always been wonderful. They're always welcoming and friendly. Today we called for a take away order and the person on the other end of the phone was pleasant and you can tell they were smiling and love what they do. They weren't rude and aggressive like other restaurants we've placed orders with in the past.
They also have other great appetizers like Jalapeno Poppers, Curly Fries, Buffalo Wings and Meatballs. They also have Gandolas and Calzones here, too! If you prefer the lighter side, they also have huge salads!
We played it safe and ordered the Chicken Wings (naked) and a 13 inch, thin crust Hawaiian pizza. Surprisingly, I had no allergic reactions to their pizza sauce! The pizza was delicious. Their dough was nice and light and was also East Coast style. One slice is bigger than your head, if you decide to just buy a slice! They don't go overboard with the toppings and everything was PERFECT! I love their thin crust pizza!
The Buffalo Wings were great, too. Cooked to a golden brown, not greasy, light and crispy. They didn't have breading on them. They also have different sauces for their wings. Since I'm allergic to all kinds of spices and stuff, we got them naked. The size of their wings are large. They weren't tiny little chicken wings. I love the flats and my husband loves the drumettes so it was nice their wings were meaty. The wings also come with celery and carrot sticks, too. We think they make their dressings homemade because their dressings are always tasty. Even their Caesar dressing. You can tell their dressings are not from a bottle. Their Bleu Cheese, Ranch and Caesar dressings are so good that you want to dip everything in them! Since we also had a Caesar Salad, we had some of their delicious Garlic Bread, too. It makes me wonder if they make their own bread, too.
We will definitely be back because they have great Family Meal deals and I'm not allergic to their tomatoes and pizza sauce! I'm so happy to be able to add BMPP to our list for dinner nights! Now that there's a sports bar, maybe we can watch our hockey team and Dodger games here!

Don’t waist your money … so so so expensive
Finally tried BMPP Big Mama's & Papa's Pizzeria in Burbank after hearing so much about it from my children, and it definitely lived up to the hype! The stone-fired, thin crust pizza was absolutely perfect – exactly like the New York style I love. The wings were crispy and flavorful, the fries were great, and the spaghetti with meatballs was truly sumptuous, with an authentic Italian taste. We were all incredibly impressed with the quality and flavor of everything we ordered. We enjoyed it so much that we only had one slice of pizza leftover! We'll definitely be back.
Poor customer service. They don't know how to say hello and welcome.

We were a big party with a lot of loud kids, but the staff was super understanding and nice. They let us hold the party with our own cake and even gave us extra free food for our party. My family and I have been ordering in there for years now, but this really solidified it as my favorite pizza restaurant in the area.

Came in on a Thursday afternoon, you order at the counter then sit down, I got one mini gondola pizza was told it would take 15 mins, ends up taking 30 minutes and the egg came out underdone they also give me plastic utensils which cannot even pierce the crust and just fall apart I asked for metal and they said they don’t have it lol, the food was actually good minus the undercooked eggs keep in mind the place was completely dead so I don’t know why it took so long In the first place, but just remember people they don’t have any metal silverware according to the staff.

Purchased a large 2 topping pizza. Came to $31 and change (very pricey for a 2 topping pizza, but what can ya do). Delivered pretty quickly. Pizza was delicious until I FOUND GLASS IN MY PIZZA SLICE!!! Called and informed the person who answered the phone (I assume was the manager as I didn't speak to anyone else). I was asked to send a picture of the glass (which I did) and was then informed that there was no way possible that he could see how glass could end up in my pizza. He made it seem like I was scamming them for something free (of which I never asked for anything for free). The "best they could do" was to remake the pizza. I had them do this and have it delivered again. The driver had a very standoffish attitude (borderline rude) and must have thought I was going to scream or yell at him due (which I did not do. Wasn't his fault). Over all the food was very good but the customer service is VERY lacking.

Visited this place about a week ago. Was first time trying them after seeing them on Instagram. We ordered 1 of the 28 inch pizzas half combo half all meat combo, and a side of lemon pepper wings. The wings were good, but the pizza was definitely the star of the show. I don't lnow what side i liked more, the all meat was so good, the meats were nice and crispy yet still soft and chewy, the combo side was also amazing, the veggies tasted fresh amd were the perfect offset for the meats that are on it. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was pretty clean and organized. Side note, to reheat pizza use an air fryer, it almost taste as good as it did fresh out the oven. Definitely recommend checking this place out.
