Papa Joe's Pizza — Restaurant in Riverside

In my experience of being a loyal Papa Joes customer I have never once had any bad service at that place me and my family and my friends all go to that restaurant all the time they have one thing other restaurants do not have satisfaction perfection the coworkers are sweet and nice they are always there to help out when needed or take an order to place an order very friendly not a lot of restaurants have nice people working now Eli on the other hand is very professional knows his job he is not an idiot and for the record he's the manager not the owner but he should be the owner because he keeps that place in line on how it should be Eli is one type of manager that knows the job knows how to handle a situation very accommodating to everybody who comes in there he's very friendly and polite and knows how to run a business don't disprespect someone who works there calling them an idiot that's uncalled for and rude he's very hard working and he is the sweetest person in the world

Eli is the best Manager of Papa Joes and deserves nothing but the absolute best at that place nobody needs to disrespect him or talk down on him ever he's amazing and one hell of a Manager of that place and being a loyal customer to that place show respect to that place and him ....... How the hell do you tell someone they don't know there job really well I hate to break it to you but he does know his job extremely well better then any other Manager I have ever seen in my life

As many loyal customers of papa joes has we all love Eli a lot he's our favorite person at that place I've been his fan club a lot if yrs and I have everyone that knows me ask for him why because that's a Manager who knows his job and well liked by all of us so in conclusion Eli is very loved and well liked and care for...

We decided to get in the car and drive away from the hotel we were staying out for some local pizza. While there was plenty Downtown we opted for just a little farther out and found Papa Joe’s. It had some pretty good reviews and looked like a little shop we’d love. The parking lot is pretty busy and we drove past the pizza shop itself at first because the signage and lighting was so dark. We turned around in the lot and drove again where we saw some of the window signage. We were greeted instantly and looked over the menu for a moment. There is a smaller seating area with an arcade area as well. I even saw some signs they offer birthday party options, how fun! It was pretty busy when we arrived so we picked one of the last tables. We chose the meat lover pizza, wings, some beer on tap and soda. Service was great. The man helping us was funny, friendly, answered all of our questions and brought our food over once ready. While I don’t typically care for baked wings these were phenomenal. They were crispy on the outside, the kick was good with a hint of smoke flavor. The chicken wasn’t dry and wings good size. Best part no huge sauce mess. I don’t mind sauced sings; I love them actually, but these were the best I’ve had. The pizza came out soon after. It looked good, perfect size and flavor good. I’d of preferred a crispier crust, but every thing else was on point. The place itself looked like they were short a little help and some of the tables were piling up with glasses, plates and such, but as soon as they had a chance someone was picking up. Great stop at a local...

I have been meaning to get to this for quite some time.... Eli is always so good to my family, the very least I can do is share my opinion. Papa Joe's is family owned and run (a theme you will see in my reviews). Eli, the owner is attentive, welcoming, and always smiling. He not only cares for his customers but their families as well. Whenever my wife swings by to pick up a pizza, Eli or one of the staff run the pizza out to her so she doesnt have to get our baby out of the car (parents know this hassle). Whenever I go, Eli always makes an effort to say hello and ask about the family. His staff are friendly and know how to cook a great pizza. The pizzas are great. Tell 'em what you you want and how you want it cooked and they are on point. The ingredients are fresh and they offer a large assortment to choose from. I personally recommend their chicken and chorizo pizza and the simple pepperoni or mushroom pizzas are great too. Ask for their specials cause they have some good deals. Lastly, if you like karaoke or live bands, you need to come check this place out on Fridays and Saturdays. The karaoke atmosphere is very cool. Everyone is super friendly and supportive; its a lot of fun. The bands Eli books are great and are never short kn entertaining. Good People. Good...
