I was so happy that Papa Vito's was still open when we returned to Cocoa Beach! They have the "real deal" Italian. We have had the pizza and the spaghetti from different times. We even had pizza delivered to the pool at our hotel. People kept asking where we got it from because it smells so delicious! It is truly an amazing experience!! The staff is excellent too! They are always so efficient , knowledgeable and friendly. read more

Papa Vito's Italian Restaurant - Hamburger pepperoni pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Cocoa Beach, Florida

We were here in Cape Canaveral on vacation and found a surprising food establishment. The food was excellent (lasagna and garlic shimp with Vodka sauce on Penne). They started us with garlic knots with marinara and an oversized side salad (bacon blue cheese dressing is awesome). The server was positive, very knowledgeable and attentive. Great job Jennifer! We will be back and highly recommend Papa Vito's! read more

My family and I stopped in after a trip to the beach and wowzers! The pizzas here are ginormous, combined with a crispy crusty, good sauce and reasonable prices and you have a nice casual meal for the entire family! I ordered the lasagna which was filled will meat, was cheesy and saucy--just the way I like it. The garlic bread, cheese read and wings were also phenomenal compared to other places we've been to. The staff was friendly and provided quick and attentive service even though it was packed! We left with happy bellies and leftovers for the next day--score! read more

Hate to do this, but I gave management (owner) the opportunity to right a wrong and he failed. Went to order a white seafood pizza in which I have got in the past. Long story short, I was told they cannot do it because it's a code violation. (Which is a lie). So I said "Scratch that whole order then. Let me get a large Margarita Pizza, with double bacon and Ricotta sauce". Note: Every other pizza place I ordered from states a Margarita already comes with extra cheese, and the 25 or so I have eaten, are with red sauce. Shame on me for not checking before I left. Got home and (30 minute drive) and found that it was a "white pizza" and looked like the Charlie Brown Christmas tree of pizzas as pictured. I called two days later because they were closed the next day (Monday). Received a call from the owner. Explained to him it wasn't the pizza I wanted, and even by the standards of a (white) margarita pizza, the sauce, ricotta, and cheese were light. Bacon was okay. Ultimately it was a very dry pizza and probably one of the worst pizzas I've ever eaten, but was really hungry and ate the center parts. Going back and forth with the owner, he stated that he personally checked the pizza himself and thought it looked delicious. Also stated he no longer offers the seafood because it would be too much for the toppings (the truth vs the lie I was given.) Not sure how he checked it, because I didn't see him in the kitchen when it came out. This was a $38.00 pizza. ($45.00 with tip). I was getting nowhere with the owner on this. I didn't want my money back, but just a properly made replacement. So now I have to give a bad review. read more

Best meal we've had in our 3 days in Cocoa Beach. Service by Theresa was wonderful, as she made sure we had full drinks, dips, and even enjoyed my stupid jokes. We had garlic knots, and a large pepperoni. Our son had a HUGE slice of cheese pizza. Beers were great! The restaurant was clean and pleasantly updated. read more

All of it was delicious!!! We had the hot Italian sliders, the calzone was massive! And the kids penne Alfredo. And everyone got garlic knots. True Italian cuisine!!! read more

Papa's Italian is the best spot for a truly delicious and cozy Italian dining experience! The atmosphere is warm and inviting--classic Italian charm that makes you feel right at home. The food is absolutely delicious, from perfectly cooked pasta to rich, flavorful sauces. You can tell everything is made with care. The service is just as great--friendly, attentive, and always helpful with recommendations. Whether it's your first time or your fifth, you're treated like family. Definitely a 10/10 and a must-try if you love Italian food! They do a lot of happy hours as well so call! read more

Papa Vito's food, service, atmosphere and prices are wonderful. They're open later at night than most restaurants, and their slices are the biggest and best around. Our waiter on Wednesday night was Cameron, whose warm, friendly and attentive service was impeccable. A perfect evening all around. Highly recommended. read more

Stopped by for lunch and glad we did! Delicious pizza and good service, with pretty standard pizza-joint ambiance. Would definitely return next time we're in the area. read more

BEWARE - Papa Vito's WAY TOO EXPENSIVE for what they offer. Quality of food is NOT justified to be $20 PLUS for pasta dish. ABSOLUTE RIP-OFF! This use to be a nice Cocoa Beach locals bargain for Italian - but now they have PRICED THEMSELVES OUT OF THE GAME!! Compare them to MUCH BETTER delicious Olive Garden. I pick Olive Garden 100 times over papa Vito's. Yeah - they have pizza's and Italian dishes but come on man - THERE IS A REASON the website does NOT show prices for the dishes - will SCARE THE F out of you. $20 plus for simple pasta dish that is underwhelming. I had a $16.50 Calzone that was over-garlic'd and lacking the contents it should have had - and served with a tiny cup of sauce. I give them a capital 'S' on the suck scale! Meh! read more

The pizza wasn't great for the price. We ordered a basic cheese and pepperoni pizza because someone from the area recommended the place, but it wasn't good, which says a lot because we were hungry The service was great, though, because they were really fast and let me pay at the time of delivery read more

Had to be on Cocoa Beach today and was ready for a good pizza. Have had Papa Vito's in the past and enjoyed it, so called in a pick up order. Great service on the phone, even though the Premier Magazine coupon was not in the system, young lady got the manager to approve it! Walked in and if the house size pizzas on display don't trip your appetite, the aroma will! Kitchen crew was fun to interact with as I was early. The Pizza, cheese, red sauce with mushroom topping was excellent, and I am a New Yorker! Definitely recommend Papa Vito's if you're in north Cocoa or Cape Canaveral, FL! read more

This is one of the only places in the area that does takeout slices, especially at night. There was not a wide variety of slices to choose from, so I got one cheese and one everything. The pizzas were perfectly floppy, but in some parts over crispy. The pizza sauce lacked flavor, but thankfully the slices were big. I wouldn't come back again, but I can see why people enjoy it!

What an amazing Tuesday find. Steven, server 457 did a great job. He was busy but managed very well. Meals were excellent and the timing of appetizers and entrees was perfect. The tables were full and the bar filled up quickly. Ambiance was fun and peaceful. Temperature was much more comfortable this time. This visit was a solid 5 and the restaurant is highly recommended. read more

Love Papa Vitos! We always order the stromboli. Delicious! Family owned and operated. They also deliver. Check them out!

In 2018 my sister and I visited Cocoa Beach for the first time, on a girls trip from Ohio. We had Papa Vito's by happenstance and ended up having it again that week before we left from our trip. We couldn't get over how incredibly fresh everything was. A year later, we brought back my mom and did a girls trip with her. One of the main reasons for coming back was Papa Vito's. Our mother shared our bliss and we now have a yearly trip to Cocoa Beach. Every year we have Papa Vito's at least twice. Everything is homemade and delicious. My family lives in Ohio and I live in Texas and it's still our favorite Italian spot in both states. The atmosphere feels local, not touristy. The staff is incredibly helpful. Their garlic knots are unmatched, even the ranch dressing is homemade! We have stickers, and shirts. We are diehard Papas Vito's people. We talk about it all year round. If you are on vacation, or driving through to your destination, do yourself a favor and stop here. read more

Food was absolutely amazing! Our waiter Baylor took wonderful care of us. I had been here 10 years ago when visiting the area. Nice to know some things don't change! read more

Victoria was a very attentive server. The food was great, as always. We have been coming here for years and will return.

Delicious pizza and subs. Got a chicken farm sandwich, Italian combo sub, regular pie, and white pie. Food was just as good as Italian places in NJ and NY. Placed a lunchtime order, person on the phone was super helpful. We were at the beach, and they were able to meet us at beach point access to deliver. Great service, good food, what's not to love! read more

Host sat me at the bar. Told by a waitress, that my waiter would be out shortly, but he refused to come out and serve me. Even when the other waiter asked out loud for him, he refused. Manager remained silent, while watching this go on. Is this still happening in 2026? read more

Honest review: this place tastes like a school cafeteria. Quick, cheap ingredients, mass produced. The pasta sauce were somehow less flavorful than a store bought can of sauce. We got the Alfredo and four cheese ravioli. The ranch was ranch flavored water. The pizza was bland, and it was like they did their best to not spread out the toppings. I got the meat lovers and there were full slices that had no toppings and others that had 6 pepperonis stacked on top of each other. read more

They gave solid recommendations to us and answered all questions we threw out! The Food: The baked wings were good, and our pizzas were good- only thing I wish fur was the crust to be cooked a little longer! I would visit again next time I'm in town!! read more

We always have a great meal at Papa Vito's. The service is also the best. There's never a long wait for our food.

Parking is absolutely terrible. The restaurant is very small and felt very cramped. Granted, every table had people seated but still felt jammed in. Didn't start off very good as we found ants in the pepper flakes jar. Took it to the bar and got an oh, oh well reaction. The server was fine. The pizza was as well. If anyone has been to Garibaldi's, this was just a slight thicker crust version of that. read more
