Our favorite pizza place never disappoints!!! We ordered 3 pizzas. My mother in law requires light sauce and they always put just enough to taste great and not upset her stomach ( medical issues). We got the killer combo and the all meat! Their pizza takes me back to Highlsnds, NJ! Best part, it will taste as good for breakfast tomorrow!!! read more

IT IS SO GOOD!! We ordered online (plus). We got the house favorite and the emperors bread (goat cheese and pepedew peppers). The emperors bread was alright. I'm not sure I would get it again just for the price. The pizza, however, was so good! Thin crust that isn't cracker-like so you could fold it, really fresh tomatoes that weren't mealy, hint of garlic and lots of fresh basil. The 14" was perfect for 2 people. The staff were super friendly. It looks like there are a couple tables to sit at and eat but it's definitely a takeout joint. It looks like they also sell cheese by the slice which is great if you're in the area for a snack. Definitely will come back again read more

Tried Papa Georgio's for the first time tonight and wow! i regret not trying sooner. I ordered the lasagna and this was absolutely the best lasagna I have ever had. Large portion, loaded with meat and Italian sausage. The sauce was the star. Light and fresh with big tomato flavor. There was fennel and fresh basil. Blew my usual Villa Nova away and at 9.99, it was half the price. The amount of cheese was perfect for me. It was not loaded down with cheese, so if you're in it for the cheese, you may want to order extra. On to the garlic bread. Another wow! Not your standard split mass produced sub bun. I'm pretty sure it was ciabatta. Great fresh bread soaked with olive oil infused with fresh garlic. Again, best garlic bread I've ever had. Amazing fresh garlic flavor and excellent bread. My husband ordered a pizza sub and again, you guessed it, best pizza sub we have ever had. Excellent bread and huge. Great sauce and cheese and loaded with Ezzo pepperoni. This bread was soooo good! We ordered a slice of pizza to try, Very, very good. Crust was outstanding! It is so rare and refreshing to find a place where they obviously love what they do and care about the food they are producing. This is not your "normal" Italian restaurant that you'll find around town. The lasagna and garlic bread transported me to Italy! read more

Yummm, I'm always so leery about trying new pizza places but I am so glad I did. We ordered a pepperoni pizza, lasagna, garlic bread, and a brownie. It was a bit pricy but pizza anywhere is ridiculously overpriced these days, at least this one was good. I inhaled the lasagna which was amazing, the right amount of sauce, decent dollops of ricotta, and sooo much yummyness. The pizza and brownies were both delicious and the garlic bread was spot on. I would definitely recommend! read more

I have been a patron since they opened and really like their pizza and being an old fat guy that loves all pizza, eating 'za roughly twice a week, that's saying a lot. NY style. The Margherita, well done with extra basil is my go to in my monthly rotation. My only issue is I wish the crust had a bit more crunch. If you haven't tried it do so. read more

I came in for a slice and ended up ordering a pie. This place was called a different name over 20 years ago, and I thought I would stop in for a slice. It is a classic NY-style pizza (in my opinion). The slice was piping hot; I added my crushed red pepper and devoured it. The take-home pie was a hit at the house. read more

The pizza here is great. It's a struggle to find good pizza around but this place hits the spot. Their lasagna and pepperoni pizza were both great. The garlic breadsticks were so simple but so good, I couldn't stop eating. My kids ate almost the entire pizza by themselves so it's safe to say they enjoyed it. For dessert we had a double chocolate brownie, a little sweet for my liking but the kids loved it. read more

Papa Giorgio's - Large cheese pizza - Pizza Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Papa Giorgio's Pizza is the best! From their excellent New York style crust, to their creamy-melty (NOT rubbery!) cheese, to sauce that tastes so fresh! They make a bangin' stromboli too --golden and crispy outside with the perfect cheese to meat balance inside. The homemade buns and Ezzo meats make for subs that are just superb! (If meat isn't your thing, there are lots of great veggie toppings/fillings.) They offer excellent, fresh salads too! My self proclaimed pizza-snob friends from New York are big fans. Papa Giorgio's was a happy discovery for them. And I can't NOT mention how incredibly nice everyone has always been EVERY time we've gone. The owner, the manager, the associates.... everyone. Super fun and friendly! read more

I have finally found my new local pizza shop, after living in the area for almost a decade. The pizza is great, with good flavors and plenty of toppings and actual good baked cheese, and while the dessert calzone wasn't totally my thing, it did make for great breakfast the next morning. I do wish they had delivery drivers instead of working with apps, but they're also close enough where I can just go pick up an online order instead. read more

Someone else posted "leftovers can wait" so we jumped in the car ordering their family special. $25 16" 2 topping pizza, spaghetti & meatballs plus garlic cheese bread (inhaled quickly). This strip mall pizzeria is small but offers 2 four top tables and a cooler of cold pop. The two men working tonight were hopping trying to close at 8pm The garlic bread was a 7 out of 5 :) The pizza was a 4 out of 5 Same for the spaghetti &meatballs. 4 out of 5 Open on Thanksgiving for list souls like me with no place to go today. 7 out of 5. We will return. read more

A classic New York style pizza you'll love as long as you remove the grease. In my photo is the astounding amount of pepperoni grease. Do not let that throw you off, it is absolutely delicious. Perfect amount of sauce and cheese. The crust is on the thinner side but not quite a thin crust pizza which makes this a winner. read more

My absolute favorite pizza in Columbus. Hands down. My family is from New York, so that can explain some of it. But the staff is always friendly. I can just get a slice if I want a bite.

I never thought I would find a grease stain sexy! Their pizza is delicious, service friendly, and best of all around two minutes away from where I live.

This is the only place in columbus that I can get a consistent pie from that is both yummy and a good size. I typically order the large (i ordered a medium once and the dough was too thick) and pepperoni. Husband, also from NJ, loves this pizza as well. I am glad I tried it again. Closest to an east coast slice we can get and I'm pleased! read more

Not many NY options in Columbus. Decided to try Papa today. I haven't had a ton of NY style pizza, but I had probably the best pizza I ever had in my life last week that was NY style (and actually in florida of all places). Papa didn't quite hit that mark and where it fell short was the sauce. It wasn't bad by any means, actually good, but the bar is high. Pizza folds nicely with a thin chewy crust, cheese was on point, pepperoni was delicious. A damn solid pie. read more

Papa Giorgio's - 16in pep - Pizza Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

My partner and I have picked up DoorDash orders from there before and the staff has always been nice. We decided to order yesterday evening since my son whom is a freshman at Centennial has been raving about the cheesy bread. He likes to add the Mike's hot honey to it and had told us that the High Schoolers may get an student discount for their orders (when they initiate and pay themselves). Nevertheless we had their food yesterday evening and felt that the overall taste was pretty good. Unfortunately I couldn't order the Family Special online which was disappointing. They offer it as an carry out only deal but since the deal was online I would've had to call it in. I happened to see another deal (Wednesday's only) for $3 off their large 16 inch pizzas so we decided to order that. Unfortunately I was only able to snap a picture of one of the two pizzas we ordered since the kids dived into there's no sooner than we got home I will say upon opening the box for one of our orders (custom build your own pizza) I was surprised by the generous amount of toppings for what we spent which was around $22 ish in price. We spent $45.60 between two 16 inches (1- half cheese-half pep, the other customized toppings) and the cheesy bread with the addition of the Mike's hot honey drizzle (which cost $2 to add). My partner and I also discovered that you can add up to 3 toppings to your cheese bread if you want! Nice!! They had a plethora of toppings to choose from. I wish we would've made our pizza the pan crust because the pizza crust was too flimsy for the amount of toppings we had on it but the cheese pizza was *chefs kiss! I look forward to seeing what else they have to offer and it's safe to say they have a loyal customer because my 14 year old son loves their cheesy bread!!! read more

Listen. If you want a cheap, gigantic slice of cheap pizza, this is a great option. One slice is 1/4 of a large pie. It's BIG. I got cheese. It was swimming in oil on top. After blotting all the oil off the top and adding parm and red chili flakes, I liked it. It wasn't outstanding or even great, but it was good and was exactly what I wanted: a huge slice of cheap cheese pizza. Speaking of the chee: it's good. Nice pull! And the crust is pretty good with a good chew to it. It's not as bad as some and not as good as others, but solidly average has a place in my pizza book! read more

After receiving a few ads in my door, I decided to give this local business a try. The place is super tiny and gives you a small town pizza shop vibe, especially since the employees are so friendly. My boyfriend ordered the cheesy garlic bread and pizza sub while I ordered the spaghetti with meatballs and the Dutch apple calzone. An older gentleman who was working winked at me and said to eat the calzone last or I wouldn't be able to stop. He had a cute personality. The spaghetti was good! It made me think of a home cooked dinner. I would have liked a little more sauce on the pasta and more garlic on the breadsticks though. He was spot on about the calzone - super tasty! The warm cinnamon, soft apples, and crunch of the bread was fantastic. I really liked that it wasn't overly sweet too. My boyfriend said the pizza sub was average. Not bad, but nothing special. Once he got to the center of the cheesy bread. He really liked it. If there was garlic on the crust, it would have been better. Overall, not too shabby! I'd recommend trying it out. read more

Had the basic pepperoni and cheese for my first time there to get a good baseline. Amazing pizza! I grew up in the northeast and this place brought me back! Will be trying some of the meals Ian's will update but these people deserved my 5 stars in the meantime! This is among the best in Columbus. Update 5/15/21 Just had the Italian sub.

My hood needed this; an artisan pie made from primo ingredients for a workmen's price. Papa Giorgio is a relatively new joint that took over the bistro space of the vanished Buckeye Pizza, and Flying Pizza before that, next to Texas Roadhouse in Bethel plaza. The place is a true mom and pop as it's owned and operated by a family naming the place after their father's nickname. It is his dough recipe they use, taught to him by Mario the Baker, a master baker from Italy their webpage informs. They also use Grande cheese and ezzo pepperoni and sausages both are said to be 'the best.' I order their supreme via their newish on-line portal, which was a breeze to use and worked perfectly. The supreme features that ezzo pepperoni and sausage, green pepper, shrooms, olive, banana peppers, and a combo shot of mozzarella and provolone Grande cheese. $17 for the small, this pie, sliced in the proper triangular slices (remember square slices is for squares!) was very good, gourmet like, with great sauce, amazing-amazing crust and the best topping in the correct generous amounts (but not overbearing.) It tasted very fresh, and beautifully made. I will say it might be the best Pizza in the Henderson Heights. But I need to try more. I also tagged on an order of cheese sticks which I judge as average but still good. They also sell Stromboli, calzones, lasagna, salads, and subs. Add on soda to wash down the Italian goodness. Recommend. read more

I'm struggling with how to review the pizza at Papa Giorgio's, because the people were really nice. The pizza was pretty good, but definitely not great, and 5 of us said we probably won't go back. Here's the issue - the dough is thin, and the cheese is thin, and there isn't a lot of sauce, so their pizza tastes nice but isn't very filling. It's tasty enough, but we'd each need to eat 1/2 of a large pizza to fill up. Their website talks about the 2 things that make them different - the high quality toppings, and the house-made crust. The toppings were definitely high quality, but there weren't enough for me - especially the cheese was fairly thin. We got one pizza that was double-cheese, and that's how much cheese should be on their regular pizza. The pepperoni was very good. The crust was thin, but chewy and not crispy. Not really New York style, I'm not sure what style it is. It was fine, but wasn't my favorite. The "bread sticks" are merely pieces of excess pizza dough that's been baked. If this is your style of pizza, then you'll love Papa Giorgio's. But for their prices we want something a little more substantial for our money. read more

This is a great pizza spot. The pies are thin and the cheese has a great pull to it. It tastes Italian rather than a more generic chain pizza. The perfect amount of sauce, good bite to the crust, and great char on the pepperoni. Get this pizza early and often. read more

Amazing NY style pizza. I'm always in search of a good pie and this was not a let down. Very thin NY style crust making the slices easy to fold and shove big bites into your mouth. Old world pepperoni that held little cups of grease as it came out of the oven, cheese was ooey and gooey as slices were pulled apart, and the flavor was fantastic. I didn't even add parm and red pepper as I usually do. Ate half of it while it was still warm, right out the oven with no extra toppings. Usually in NY I would add garlic powder and oregano but I had neither with me I'm the car ;-) Bonus: if you want to check them out for the first time on Mondays they have a $5 cheese pizza and on Tuesday's they have a $6 1-topping. I will Most likely be back to try a new specialty pie but will 100% be back for a special, especially Monday nights when so many other of my local gems are closed. :-) read more

Crust was thin but substantial enough to hold up to toppings, cheese and crust were excellent as well with a nice punch of garlic which is a bonus for me. Cheesy garlic bread was addictive as well. Will definitely return for another round in the future. read more

Super nice and accommodating staff. Pizza was very tasty. I will return. The house made salad dressings are very good.

This is one of the best pizza places I have ever been! I love so much. My kids also really enjoyed the food. We will be going back.

I have been buying pizza at Papa's since right after they opened--and raving about it to family and friends--anyone who would listen. I'd sing the praises of this 'za all over town. The pizza was thin and chewy, but nice and crisp. The toppings were obviously premium. And the sauce was fresh. The delivery was always on time. During the past six months, though, things have gone downhill. Inconsistent at best. Sometimes the pizza comes under-baked (almost raw) and wet. Sometimes the toppings are borderline gross. Sometimes it is inexplicably salty. It's embarrassing to order pizza for friends and then no one can eat it. I hope they find away to return to excellence and find consistency. read more

First and most importantly, amazing, friendly, appreciative service! Delicous pizza, salad, pasta and cheese bread. My wife and I visit at least once a week, sometimes twice and the food is always spot on. Great flavors, fair portions, delicious sauces. By the way, recently tried the Alfredo and hands down, best ever! Can't wait to try this week's new dinner pick! Great job Papa G's it's a pleasure doing business with someone who genuinely cares and takes so much pride. Wish you the very best! Respectfully, Retired pie slinger (35years) read more

Best NY style pizza in Columbus. Not sure why it's so hard to make a decent slice outside NY, but this place figured it out!

Unbelievably outstanding! For people who grew up in NE Ohio, great pizza is hard to find. Giorgio's is super! Crust is perfect, not over baked as so many in the area. Cheese was surprisingly good, and the sausage was beyond tasty. You won't be disappointed! read more
