Pappanino Pizza

The delivery driver was a bit rude on the phone as well as when he dropped the pizza off. My husband was nice enough to still tip him, but very rude attitude. Also, the pizza wasn’t even hit on arrival. Will not be ordering here in the future!

Don’t know if it was the undercooked crust or something else but my group did not feel good after eating their pizza. For the price you could do a lot better. Asked for garlic as part of the toppings on our pizza and it was massive chunks of garlic, you couldn’t taste anything but garlic.

My first experience here was ok. I went on a whim to get a slice of pizza. Pizza slices were decent, nothing over the moon to rave about but tasted decent. Having tasted their slices with a satisfactory experience, I decided to order a whole pizza. Big Mistake. BIG MISTAKE. The pizza was AWFUL. The sausage tasted OLD like perhaps it had been under-​cooked or sitting out. The sauce was bland and the cheese had a strange taste. Very very disappointing. I tried reheating the pizza the next day to give it yet another chance and couldn’t even eat it, sausage still tasted strange and the cheese reheated looked like something out of a horror film. So bad. This is the first time in my entire life where I have had to throw away pizza. Steer clear of this pizza.

If you are looking for bad quality and service, then this is your joint.
Be warned. They cannot get an order right to save their lives. Twice, we ordered appetizers for a get together and twice, they managed to mess up the order.
A couple weeks back we put an order for 3 orders each of jalapeño poppers, breaded mushrooms, and mozzarella sticks. We called at 5 to pick up at 6. We got there are 6:10. Not only was the order not ready, but they hadn’t started it. To make it even worse, they blamed us and said we showed up 10 minutes late. They said they would make it up to us and give us extra, but they really didnt.
The second time, we ordered the same apps again. Not only did we not get mushrooms (somehow got burnt zucchini instead), the mozzarella sticks were missing cheese! Yay cuz I really was jonesing for breading (sarcasm intended).
To be fair, I have tried the pizza. We experienced similar customer service issues when picking up the pizza in terms of lateness, but the taste was ok

Living east of Ashland Avenue, I’ve learned one, main thing about pizza — there’s none of it. When Pappanino arrived I was thrilled, as many pizza places in Wicker Park, Bucktown or even River North refuse to deliver to our Noble Square pizza desert location.
On to the food — Pappanino is straight-​forward za. It’s homemade — good cheese, good sauce and wallet friendly. One thing I will say, be careful with the meat as they tend to give you A LOT of it. Don’t get me wrong, the meat is good (flavorful, again, tastes authentic Chicago pizza joint), but once when ordering two meats on a standard large za, it turned quickly into a Meat-​za.
Good pizza, inexpensive, fast. A solid option to have for us folks in Noble Square who love pizza and don’t want Dominos on a weekly basis, because frankly, we’re too damn old for that.

Ordered off eat24. Pizza and wings both came cold. Wings were drowning in at least an extra half cup of sauce so we’re super mushy. Pizza was cold and the crust was chewy and tasted stale.

Best little place out there! The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly. Definitely going back over and over again!

The food is good. Me being the most indecisive person on earth couldn’t decide what to order and the employees were all full of suggestions which is a total win for someone like me!

We live around the corner and have ordered from Pappanino several times now this summer. Food is good, great sauce on the pizza. The apps have all been served up hot and well cooked. We will continue to come here for our once a month or so pizza fix.

The service and the food here is top notch. The owner Nick, is a true Italian and it shows in his food as well as his hospitality and service. We had just moved here from several blocks away and had to try the corner pizza spot. The prices were extremely cheap for Chicago and Nick was extremely welcoming. While we waited we decided to purchase drinks and he gave them to us on the house as a welcome to the neighborhood. I thought this gesture was extremely warming and welcoming and was definitely a sign of the good character Nick and his staff here have. The pizza slices and pasta dinner we ordered was ready in about 25 minutes and was phenomenal.
We all come from a small Italian town in Ohio and the pizza and other Italian cuisine there is top notch, so it was surprising to find a comparable place right next door to our new home. I recommend this place to anyone and consider it a true five star.

I am so happy with this place. I live right up the street on Walton and so its so nice to have a great pizza place that I can walk over to and pick up especially when their food is amazing! All their food boils down to quality ingredients and the care they put into it.
I jumped around from pizza place to pizza place usually settling on Connies. However, this is my new favorite pizza place. I love their thin crust and again the quality of their ingredients is so noticeable.
My favorites are the thin crust pizza, antipasta salad, and wings.
Cannot wait to order again.

Just read all the reviews about this place, all great, so thought I was in for a treat… WRONG. I used the eat24 app to purchase my food. Here is why I will never order from PAPPANINOS again. First off I ordered diet coke in my order. Received a call back from Eat24 saying they have no more diet coke, Awesome guys! I will Live… But Maybe you might have thought to take the extra effort to stop and pick up some on the way! Or maybe make sure you have some if on your menu! Not willing to go the extra step to make your customers happy !! Top Notch.
Anyway the bigger problem is they completely got my pizza wrong. Was supposed to get half cheese and the other half with my ingredients. Nope they totally botched the order and made it half sausage half mushrooms and peppers. The person I was with only eats cheese. So I contacted Eat24 telling them I was in no mood to wait for another pizza and thought a discount would be fair.
I could’ve easily returned the pizza and they would have had to make a whole new pie for me. But I simply asked for a discount. They said they would not give one!!! YOU MADE THE ORDER WRONG!!! Don’t know where the others come off by saying this person cares about his business because after that experience he obviously does not. Won’t order from here again. And FYI the pizza is a ³⁄₁₀ AND THATS JUST ON LOOKS… Tastes terrible!!! Much better pizza out there and definitely much better customer service! Good luck to you!!! I’m OUT!

Ordered a stadium size sausage pizza for family members who were over. The pizza was fantastic! Nice crispy crust, delicious sauce! Everyone enjoyed the pizza and said it was great. The owner came out personally to greet me and share conversation. He seems to really care about his business! I will definitely order again and again!

Finally met our new neighbors at Pappaninos! I ordered a slice of the cheese, pepperoni, and sausage hoping it would be enough. To my surprise the slices were pretty huge which provided a good deal! The pizza was delicious and fresh. The sauce was sweet which I like. I also liked that they used real sausage, (not like the small balls of meat like most places). Next time I’m trying the wings! The owner, Nick was very nice and I could tell he really cared about his customers and business. Come welcome Pappaninos to the neighborhood!

Great Pizza, cheese sticks, and poppers. Was quick and veggies on the pizza were super fresh! Will be back!

I am so impressed with my pizza! The crust is excellent! So crispy! And, I used to love the old place that was here Pizza Metro 2, but now I have a new go to pizza place in my neighborhood. A pleasant surprise because most places don’t know how to make good pizza.

Just stopped in for my first time. Very friendly owners. I tried a thin crust cheese and sausage pizza with an order of wings. Great food! My opinion is best Chicago style thin crust pizza around. Great wings as well! I’m happy to have Pappanino’s in the neighborhood.
