Best papa John’s on this side of the city. Friendly, kind, efficient staff, great pizza and food everytime. Wish I could afford to tip more. Great place and my go to place for a good deal on a solid pie.
July 2025
I don’t usually write reviews, but Papa John’s at University Ave absolutely deserves one. Every time I order, the pizza arrives hot, fresh, and exactly how I asked for it. The crust is always perfect—crispy outside, soft inside—and the toppings actually taste like real ingredients (looking at you, cardboard pizza chains). Delivery is fast, staff are polite, and they’ve never once messed up an order. Bonus points for the garlic sauce. Seriously. That stuff could solve...
May 2025
This location was super quick and the pizza tasted great. Not the location's fault, but the price is a little intense for me. We also got large pizzas, and they were about the same size as a medium from other places we have been.
