    The lower number means they're less famous so this Kelly dude probably never made the grade?
    Fox E.

    If you have a moment let me borrow your EAR To tell you of the best slice you'll have this YEAR And the kind of sub sandwich that's better than a BEER You'll love it more than Marky Mark loved Reese in FEAR I'll take you there now, you can drive, I'll STEER When we get there I might go in the back and disaPPEAR Eat their whole stock sooner than R Kelly had AALIYAH Cause the only thing I really want to Mangia is MIA WHAT What to get: Pizza and Chicken Florentine sandwich. Their chicken finger subs and other sandwiches are wonderful as well. Owned by Mia Farrow, Mia Zadora, and "Mamma" Mia from the play Mamma Mia, this pizza shop is one of the very best in the East burbs. It's easily inside Buffalo's top 20 locations for pizza, subs, wings and the like. The pizza in particular is spectacular. Well-seasoned, saucy, delicious, gooey, perfect. The best way I can describe it is that Mangia is a carpet of a pizza with masses of delicious salty sauce and very thick cheese; sloppy and tasty and good. The service is wonderful too. They heat my slices without me even asking (some places take umbrage with that, whatever umbrage is, idk) and it was really cheap for an enormous slice. Of the sub sandwiches I've tried (4 so far), the Chicken Florentine one is my fave. It's remarkable and utterly delicious. But the chicken finger sub closely rivals it because it's one of the best chicken fingers subs in town. The Mangia Mangia is really good, too, as is the chicken parm. Their subs are competitively priced, stuffed, filling, and some of the absolute best sandwiches in town. This is the busier, larger original location, with plenty of seating, way down in the southtowns. There are other (inferior and much less friendly) pizzerias to choose from down this way. None are even close to being this good. Their new location is up closer to Clarence, much farther North, close to Genesee & Transit. It's tiny and has nowhere to sit. Both places make perfect, and very similar, pizza. The people running these places are really wonderful too, which is a nice change because I get a little tired of the attitude problems that some Pizzerias (especially close to this original location of Mia) can have. As I've said before, in another review, Buffalo has some of the best pizza in the world. Sadly people will tell you otherwise, especially people who don't appreciate what their hometown does well, or people who prefer refined Italian wannabe pizza or thin crust NYC slices, which I admit are amazing, when done right. Or if you're not from around here, the thick gooey doughy saucy cheesy greasy greasy greasy (did I mention greasy) style might throw you off. That's a shame. You don't come to Buffalo for health food. We're sorely lacking in serious contenders along those lines. But when it comes to pizza there are probably 50 great pizzerias and lots of good ones too. But it's slices like these at Mia Mangia that really make Mia Ppreciate Buffalo Pizza the most. It's definitely going on my top 10 WNY slices list, and is the best you'll find anywhere along Transit Road, by a distance. So step right up ladies and gents. A slice from Mia Mangia will set you back a mia (mere, get it) $2 and change, and it's big and juicy and delicious, like my Great Aunt.

    Delicious but small

    Papa’s Pizza Oven - Half (9", 6 slice) Cheese, Bacon, Green Pepper Pizza: Appreciated the real bacon and big green pepper slices!

    I'll cut to the chase then come back around for details ... DO NOT SLEEP ON PAPA's PIZZA OVEN!…read more 10/10, food and experience, you will not be disappointed, I promise! . 1) SAUCE: They offer two standard red pizza sauces (other specialty options, but we're just talking standard for now) - if you like a sweet sauce PLEASE order here! I have no words for how delicious it is. The saucey, cheesy edges get a little carmelization from the method that they form and bake their pizza and it all comes together in this amazingly balanced , tradition Buffalo pie. 2) DOUGH: perfectly done, imo, Buffalo-style. Not too thick but not thin, cooked fast and hot and gives that slight but great char we love from the likes of OG Imperial and Bocce. But it's Papa's time NOW! The cheesy saucy edges get melty and a little charred over the perfect crusty edges and THAT is what pizza dreams are made of. 3) CHEESE: plentiful, fresh and baked to perfection with a fantastic pull. They put enough that you don't have a bite without just the right amount of cheese but not a crazy amount that is thick and loses its taste. Papa's is all about balance. ‍ 4) TOPPINGS!: ABUNDANT!! Do not wonder if you need to order double-anything to have the right amount of toppings - and by right amount I mean every bite. Pepperoni- cup & char bc Buffalo For the mushroom enthusiasts, they use a plentiful amount of the jarred 'shrooms, which I happen to think are elite on pizza bc they do not dry out. Before you send the mushroom police for me, jarred mushrooms and sautéed mushrooms (I know of only 2 places in the world that puts this on pizza as a standard) are the best on pizza, but you can try and prove me wrong. 5) Wings: a Buffalo girl's review - fresh, definitely one of the heftier sized wings, homemade blue cheese that is hella flavourful and also available by the large tub for fans like us. Their portion is large per order of wings comparatively in the area and it is DELISH. Their wing flavours are delicious- mild is very mild but incredibly tasty, Medium is a solid mild + a smidge hotter if you are wondering. The wet Cajun wings are out of this world and rival the Cajun wings at Elmo's. SO GOOD! 6) Last but not least the STAFF! I don't know anyone that works there, but they treat you like friends when you walk in the door. On the phone, the guy that most often answers is so nice, pays attention and never misses and sounds HAPPY to make your pie. We asked for extra sweet sauce via phone bc I ordered for my Mom to deliver to her and couldn't find it on Doordash, he was so kind and helpful! And he's like that EVERY TIME. It makes such a difference. The prices are good, the food is always fresh and beyond tasty and we crave this pizza .. which honestly hasn't happened in a long time. If you're looking to sit down, there are seats for pickup wait, but no dine in option at this time. Papa's Pizza Oven = Pizza Perfection for us. We hope you'll give them a try real soon! Tell them Nicole sent you. I'm proud to give them an honest and great review. 10/10, A+, Prez of Pizzas

    As a native Long Islander, I am very particular about my pizza. I've never been a huge fan of…read moreBuffalo-style pizza...that was until I found Papa's Pizza Oven. Finding this family-owned pizza place was like a breath of fresh air in a sea of unfortunate pizza experiences i've had in Buffalo. The first time I walked into Papa's, I was adorably greeted by the owner's 9 year old son. It's no question where he gets his charisma from--the owner welcomed me with a kindness that made me feel right at home. This place is OUTSTANDING. Hands down the best pizza in all of Buffalo. Their sweet sauce is unlike anything i've ever had before--absolutely delicious!! After my first visit to Papa's, I found myself going back a few short days later, unable to shake the thought of their savory slices. Now onto the wings!! They are everything you could possibly want in a wing. Big, saucy & crunchy. The garlic sticks are phenomenal as well. Light, airy & full of flavor. Needless to say, i'm counting down the days until I am back in Buffalo so I can visit Papa's once again!
