    Custom made pizza with our own smoked meat

    Great place! Awesome customer service and amazing pizza! Owner is awesome and always nice. My husband smokes some meat and always brings it by the pizza shop to get these amazing smokes bbq pizzas or a smoked bbq Alfredo sauce pizzas! They are a family favorite! Always fresh and always amazing !

    Pepperoni pizza half jalapenos

    The food is absolutely amazing. The service you could not ask for people and the atmosphere is absolutely wonderful.

    Tex Mex deep dish
    Ari E.

    We bought the Tex Mex and Pepperoni -- both deep dish. The best deep dish pizza we have tried. Great taste and quality. Ambiance was nice, customer service was amazing. A must try, experience was overall excellent. We will be returning!

    Fettuccini Alfredo
    Maiden B.

    Papa G's was the closest pizza restaurant to my in-laws and it did not disappoint. This is a small mom and pop pizzeria and had great reviews on Yelp. We ordered their pepperoni and mushroom pizza, garlic bread, and chicken Alfredo pasta and a 2ltr soda. I ordered on their app and was able to track my order from start to finish. The restaurant is in a little strip mall, next door to an event center, gym, and church. The restaurant was quaint and had some tables and chairs to dine in. When our order was ready, packed and ready to go. Their pizza was nice and hot. It had a great cheese pull and good topping to crust ratio. The garlic bread was nice and buttery and came with tangy thick marina sauce. The Alfredo pasta was also very good but didn't think it came with enough chicken. But overall food was delicious and great experience.

    Vegan lasagna
    Chelsea B.

    New menu items: Vegan lasagna & vegan chicken fettuccine Alfredo! The lasagna has a nice herby flavor to it and the fettuccine is spicy, lemony, and creamy. I highly recommend & will be back for more soon. As always, excellent, friendly, personable service. Very clean environment and good vibes.

    5 out 5 stars! First time trying papa g's pizza! Very delicious and flavorful with every bite! Service was above and beyond! They also deliver to menifee! I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

    Chicago deep is good!

    Fresh salad and pizza --- heavenly good!!! Garlic breadsticks I can't stop eating!!! My goodness! Go there ! You won't disappoint! I ll go back with my family and friends

    Caesar salad
    Jessica X.

    Friends live near by and usually order from them. Ordered for pick up: Caesar salad, medium pepperoni pizza and large meat pizza. Only thing would be the crust got a little smaller on the meat pizza per my friend since they go here more often than me. And the Caesar salad was a little sad, but we needed some greens with our pizza. Service was really nice, and ambiance was cute, cozy, and seats inside. I'm pretty sure we will be ordering often since it's close by and still yummy.

    Hawaiian Pizza
    Denise P.

    Tasty Pizza, Savory Breadsticks and fresh salad in town!! Always great customer service when visiting.

    Chille relleno chicken pizza
    Benjamin M.

    this pizza had really good fresh ingredient, you can taste it in the pizza the chille rellano pizza was fire you can tell they use real pablano chillis the flavor 5 star. I honestly think it's the best pizza in the marietta Temecula wildomar Lake elsinore area. I love pizza so me and my family are always on the hunt for good pizza the service was good to a lil pricey but worth it for fresh ingredients

    This kid made me happy. A few games for kiddos.
    Brittany B.

    Super cute vibe. Loved the fact that it took 20 minutes to get the pizza when we ordered, proof that it was fresh and made with love, which was obvious when we took the first bite. The crust was PERFECT. I wasn't super impressed with the sausage on the combo, however the pepperoni, freshly sliced mushrooms, and perfect crisp green bell peppers were outstanding. I'm giving 4 stars today but when I come back for the garlic chicken with secret Italian spices I may have to add a star. Stay tuned!

    Cheese burger pizza
    Robert W.

    We ordered the Cheeseburger pizza, from the home made sauce to the burger, pickles and cheese blend it was the best! Don't forget the cinnamon bread sticks with the homemade dipping sauce that is the BEST! Great job Papa G pizza.

    Garlic Chicken Pizza
    Gabbernaut C.

    Best Pizza I've had since moving to Lake Elsinore! Great pizza dough and marinera sauce, which is the foundation of pizza for me. We also tried the Pesto garlic chicken pizza which is really good! Nice indoor seating area and air conditioning. The husband and wife were very kind and personable. We will be coming back!

To make matters worse, my friend's drink came with lipstick on the glass. When we brought it to the waiter's attention, his response was basically, "Well, it's not the bartender's fault," and he walked away--no apology or attempt to make it right. The food didn't make up for the poor service either. The flavors were very lacking, and the Alfredo sauce was especially bland. Between the service, lack of concern over cleanliness, and disappointing food, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant

I went today with a group of four people during lunch on a weekday. I had to request the lunch menu; we were only presented the much pricier dinner menu. The food is not as good. Everything is ala carte. Salads must be purchased separately. The house salad used to be chock full of goodies: tomatoes, garbanzos, etc.. Now it is lots of lettuce with a little bit of tomato and olives. My eggplant lasagna was a small piece of lasagna with a side a rigatoni covered in sauce. I had bariatric surgery and can eat hardly anything in one sitting, but I was able to eat the lasagna slice with no problem. A normal person would have felt it insufficient. An 18% gratuity was added to the bill without notice, and no mention was made of it. If we hadn't been looking, we would have double tipped. The suggested tip amounts included the already included 18% gratuity in the calculation. No bueno.

From the moment we walked into Fugghedabout, we were stunned. The space is dark, sultry, lightly dimmed, and incredibly chic, something you'd never expect here. It has a very grown up, intimate vibe (21+ only), perfect for date night or a night out with friends. We were lucky enough to visit on a night with live music (they have it Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays), and it completely set the mood. Even though it wasn't very busy, the energy was wonderful and the music was excellent. Service was top notch. Meghan was fantastic, friendly, attentive, accommodating, and so helpful throughout the meal. Faith, the owner, also stopped by several times to check on us, which earned major points. Such a sweet touch and much appreciated. Now the food... wow. We started with the seared scallop special topped with caviar, and it was outstanding, perfectly cooked, with the caviar adding just the right touch of saltiness. Honestly, we wanted to order more. The hot goat cheese with hot honey appetizer was delicious and so comforting. Definitely get extra bread, you'll want it. Since it was Taco Tuesday, we tried the taco trio with chicken, steak, and shrimp. The steak and shrimp were standouts. The chicken was slightly dry, but overall we really enjoyed them. And the biggest surprise of the night was the shrimp and sausage skillet. Absolutely incredible. So flavorful and rich, and again we needed more bread to soak up every bit of that delicious sauce. We also ordered the crème brûlée for dessert, which was good. The sugar topping was slightly thick, and I'll admit I'm a bit of a dessert snob, so while we enjoyed it, the meal itself was really the shining star of the night. I'm already dreaming about my next visit. I was genuinely impressed by everything, service, ambiance, food, and live music. This place is a whole vibe. Five stars all the way. Highly recommend for anyone looking for amazing food in a sultry, intimate setting. I've already recommended it to several friends. Thank you Meghan and Faith for such a great night. We'll definitely be back!
