I'm delighted to give it such a positive review.
The quality of the food exceeded my expectations.
I felt like a valued guest throughout my visit.
Best Pork belly I've ever tasted. My friends and I have ordered the pork belly from here a few times and its always ranked as one of the best dishes at our parties.
Been with Papa J's since Carson and Norwalk era that's maybe 20+yrs ago when he did my daughter's 10th birthday Luau. AMAZING food & service, hes such a great person. Highly recommend to everyone for there fresh & always crispy Lechon!
The pig I received has gone bad. I picked it up on Friday and put it in my fridge. Which I had emptied so I could fit an 84lb pig. I came back to the shop with the pig. To return it but the owner said that the meet couldn’t go bad and that I was lying. I wasn’t going to get a refund
MY FAMILY LOVED IT! The lechon was PERFECTION!! ?????
The best letchon and the price is reasonable. Papa j letchon is the best.
We bought Lechon belly and absolutely delicious ???
Ordered a lechon from Papa Js for a party but we found a cheaper restaurant right away and canceled more than two weeks in advance. Day of we get a call that the delivery driver was here. We were surprised because it was much more expensive than we were told ($450 including delivery) we tried to venmo the rest but their account was shut down on venmo (the driver told us the venmo name was Marcos cafe) but said we could zelle them which I did (also under Marco cafe) though I was confused because the lechon box says Nonoy's lechon.30 mins later we get another call the delivery driver is here to drop off the lechon we ordered. Turns out the papa j's/marco cafe/nonoys delivery was the lechon we canceled weeks earlier and the other delivery driver was the actual order who had drive 3 hours to deliver our order. We apologize and paid them some money for driving down, which was awful because that was the lechon we actually ordered.Next day Papa Js calls us again asking for more money even though we already fully paid for an order we canceled weeks ago. The lechon was fine but I unless you want to be a scammed, go somewhere else especially because I'm not even sure who actually roasted the pig, I have a feeling with all the different names they've given us they buy it from someone else and try to upsell their product. Zero stars.

Best lechon!! We ordered a 50# for my son's birthday and got so many compliments. We paid extra for delivery and they dropped off the lechon on time. Paid cash. Thank you so much. Cant wait to order from Papa J's again!
