Great food every time! Great service every time! Friendly staff that love helping you New Monday hours

We stopped by Papa Vito's after hearing it was the go to pizza spot for locals in Cocoa Beach, known for its award winning pies and out of this world garlic knots. The place definitely has that laid back, local charm and a steady flow of regulars, which gave us high hopes walking in. Considering every table was taken and full we got lucky to snack one of the last open tables available upon walking in. To be honest, the garlic knots didn't quite live up to the hype for me. They were decent, but I was expecting something a bit more memorable based on the buzz. That said, the rest of the meal definitely made up for it. We ordered a salad that was super fresh and flavorful, a great starter. The pizza was also solid, crisp crust, good sauce-to-cheese ratio, and generous toppings. We got the hit man Dan pizza. I also got to try one of the meatballs from a pasta dish my boyfriend's brother ordered, and it was surprisingly delicious..tender, well-seasoned, and hearty.

14"sausage, pepperoni, black olive pizza and a house salad

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.

Everything about this place is perfect. We're from STL looking for food and stumbled across this gem. The pizza is EVERYTHING a pizza should be. Service is amazing he kept glasses full and moving plates as they were done

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!

Does this look like a healthy portion of white sauce, extra cheese, with Ricotta? $38.00! I had $10 7-11 pizzas better than this.

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.

Hot Italian slider

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!!!

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!

The pizza was surprisingly good. We got a 1/2 Margarita pizza and 1/2 number 7…read more The crust of the pizza was crispy. The Margarita pizza has lots of flavor, the garlic was noticeable and made the pizza stand out in a good way. The service was great. The atmosphere was casual. There was an outside and inside place to dine.

My wife and I enjoy trying new places and supporting small businesses. With that said the service…read morewas poor, it was expensive for pizza and the food wasn't anything to come back for. Service: We walked in and were told to sit wherever, we wanted outside but it was too dark and the tables were dirty. We decided to sit inside so we could see each other and our food. We waited 10 min for menus and listened to employees argue over whose table we were. NOTE:(I counted between cooks, servers, etc... 11 employees) once we got menus we ordered drinks and food. While ordering pizza we were told that all toppings cost extra. So the advertised price of a pizza was cheese only. Kinda of disappointing to not include a topping or two for that price. We ordered an appetizer that took approx 15-20 min to come out and then the pizza followed shortly after approx. 35 min. We weren't offered drink refills until after our pizza showed up. Once our food came the waitress seemed a little more attentive with drink refills and asking how our food was. But overall the service was disappointing. Food: The appetizer we ordered was deep fried ravioli with marinara. They tasted like they were frozen and the centers were lukewarm. On the plus side I did enjoy the marinara but wished there was more of it. Once the pizza came it was over cooked, lacking toppings and the cheese didn't go all the way to the crust. The dough tasted like it could've been great if not overcooked but I can only go off what I got. I'm sure this place does well with tourists as it's near that area of cocoa beach but my wife and I will not be going back for the above mentioned reasons. It's a shame when you can get better pizza from a chain type place.

Came here as a party of 4 and were seated immediately. Service was very quick from taking orders to…read morethe delivery of our pizzas. We went with their meat lovers and Capricciosa (basically veggie pizza). They were both delicious! The style of pizza was very light and airy and we didn't feel overly full after eating it. We enjoyed both pizzas very much too. There is lots of seating inside, whether you're a bigger party or it's just you. They're very accommodating and quick. I'd definitely come back!

Monday, 13 April 2026. FOOD: The pizza was tasty but no…read moremore than a snack. The sauce was thin and sparse not covering the pie in the usual manner. It did have a nice flavor. The pizza crust was a bit chewy. Drinking a coke with each bite made it palatable. The photo shows how small it was for $17. SERVICE: The real reason for the low review was the service. The restaurant has about 34 seats and four were occupied, plus us. She ignored us. When she finally came over, she did not say hello, did not introduce herself, did not say welcome. She said. "yeah?" We ordered. She did bring the food. She plopped the two Coke bottles on the table. We had to ask for glasses and ice. A big sigh and a huff but she did bring the glasses. When we were done eating, she came by with the credit card machine and said, "Cannoli?" We said no thank you just the bill. She walked away. Then she cleared a table (one couple left) and no one else came in. She straightened the chairs, made personal phone calls, walked around and finally brought the bill. We could not understand why she acted that way. We were nicely dressed, were polite, no complaints made. Nothing negative on our part. Even if she was having a bad day, there was no reason to be like that to us. There are so many restaurants in this area where you are treated nicely. It will be a while before we give this place a second chance.
