“I just moved to Ridgefield about a week ago, hence the reason I ended up at Ilani for the first time yesterday. The entire time my buddy Derrick lived in Vancouver, he would rant and rave about how delicious Papa Pete's Pizza was but, due to the distance, I never bothered going out of my way to try it, mostly because I'm a huge Blind Onion fan and stand by them being the best pizza in Vancouver... but we're not in Vancouver anymore.

I phoned in an order for a medium Meat Eater's, which comes with pepperoni, beef, salami, sausage, and Canadian bacon. It's cut into 12 slices so I figured even for a medium it can't be very small and I was correct. It was a decent sized pizza for five toppings and $31.95.

Now I'm sure I'm not alone in this opinion, but the crust very much decides whether a pizza is good or not, and Papa Pete's crust was near perfect in my opinion. It was very crunchy, but not in a cracker way in that it still had a reasonable amount of moisture in it. It held together well, without sauce making it's way to the box. My only slight issue is that I'm not a HUGE fan of corn meal/polenta used as a non-sticking agent, but it doesn't bother me to a large degree.

The toppings were the best part though, and they were piled high! There were so many toppings in fact, they didn't all stay on the pizza! My family had a rule growing up; anything that falls off and hits the box is fair game to fight over and this pizza definitely would have caused some pepperoni snatching! Once the pizza slice actually hits your plate it looks like a normal piece because all the extras fell off. It's not an issue if you don't mind snacking on some of the toppings by themselves. I also really enjoy the pepperonis that turn into little cups when they're baked and that's what was used. A decent amount of spiciness to them as well! They also seem to be less greasy than normal pepperonis which is important on a Meat Lover's type pizza.

When I went to pick it up, the staff were extremely friendly. Chatted a little with the lady behind the counter, and took my pizza home to enjoy! I highly recommend Papa Pete's to anyone passing through Ridgefield or Longview and give them a 9/10 (close enough to 5/5 for Google star system)! Way to go Papa Pete's!!“

“First off, Google lies: they no longer serve coffee. The service was fast, professional, and courteous. The portions are sizable, especially for the price. The chicken was super dry, though, and the teriyaki sauce probably came from a bottle. I would still much rather eat here than a fast food chain for probably the same price.“
