Papas is pretty good. Not a fancy place but it’s good for fast food. Gyro is great and affordable compared to other places.

Great food, spicy, can not go as authentic as this. Family owned and John and his wife and son always serves with a smile. The cook is very friendly and proud of his great food(fish bun and fish pastry really worth the calories).

This place is awesome! Doesn’t look like much from the outside or inside. But they make authentic Sri Lankan and Indian food, which is hard to find now and days. Great portions and the food was amazingly good ! Ordered from the Sri Lankan menu. I forgot the name but it was a dish that came wrapped in a banana leaf with rice, cashews, egg and meat. Sooooo goood!!!

Tried them out when they first opened, and ate the burgers(fish), rice, and fries(cheese). It’s usually empty in there, and forget about delivery! You might live a couple of minutes away but they’ll take forever to deliver. Might as well go there yourself than do delivery. The food is fine, just that their service isn’t all that good(a little rude). Small portions of everything else unless you’re getting a burger and fries.

Shortly after we had placed our orders for dine-in, I noticed that there was no restroom, but an adjoining grocery store that sold middle-eastern kitchen staples, such as rice, herbs and spices. The owner began berating his wife in their native language, clearly not condoning the idea of having lent their restroom, which, to me, as a paying customer, was rather insulting. I would not have used it, if it weren’t an emergency, but if you have tables and chairs, customers would appreciate such a basic accommodation. The restroom spooked me quite a bit, as it looked like a janitor’s closet. Or maybe that’s what it used to be, before they decided to put a throne in there. Now I know why that guy was making such a big deal. But fear not… I do not hail from the health department, but am simply a hungry patron who wants some hot food in her tummy. We were told that the Chicken Tikka Masala would take longer, due to the nature of its preparation. I don’t doubt that the creamy tomato curry is a more complex sauce, and would rather wait for something that is prepared fresh than reheated. I was inclined to believe, however, that part of the reason for the wait — despite us being the only two diners there — was due to the obvious fact that the sole chef was short-handed, and was executing both in-house orders and deliveries, as fast as he possibly could. The owner turned his act around, however, by bringing the meal out to us, making sure that we had utensils, napkins, and condiments. Along with the Chicken Biryani, and vegetable Samosas, everything was found to our liking, although they did not blow us away with their flavors. In the extensive time that we had patiently waited(at least 20 minutes — Is this not supposed to be a fast food joint?), I was expecting something out of this world. Papa’s also offers traditional American fast food fare, such as french fries, nuggets, coleslaw, hot wings, cheeseburgers, shrimp, mozzarella sticks, and onion rings. This place needs to hire additional helping hands, if they would like to keep their business running smoothly. The owner also needs to keep his attitude in check(we can see you making a pissy face when you turn your back, sir), because it taints the dining experience. Because of what occurred during my visit, I will not be returning for a second round. Stop by for the chicken over rice from a halal vendor just a few blocks away. In fact, there are several of these popping up all over Staten Island. Unlike Papa’s, they won’t keep you waiting, and their food is not only delicious, they’re made-to-order and cost much less.

extremely unhelpful guy. This place will never receive business from me again. He over charged me once. I ask him why, he was giving me … Then week later he he did the same. Bad service, big attitude… I will never ever go there…

I don’t know the entire menu BUT i’ve tried the spicy chicken sandwhich, cheeseburger, and fries. I think that the spicy chicken is pretty awesome! The chicken they give in the sandwhich is a good portion. Its very tasty and alwayssss fresh!!! The meal that comes with a can of soda and fries is very affordable and taste sooo much better than any local fast food chain. In terms of fries, you do get a bigger portion of fries than other places. The cheeseburger tastes very good as well. I would definitely recommend this place! :)

I am writing this review after just getting off the phone with the extremely unhelpful guy on the phone. After waiting an hour for delivery, I call to find out whats going on with my order. I was told they were backed up, and my order was in line to be delivered, that it would be leaving in 15 minutes. After another ten minutes, I get a call from the delivery guy, asking for directions, having no idea where to go, even though I’m about six minutes away. He was given clear directions, and 20 minutes later he calls again and he is still in the same area he was before. I called the restaurant to cancel my order… I don’t even get one apology… just the excuse that he was new. This place will never receive business from me again

The food is awesome and the service s excellent. Occasionally can be slow. The menu is ridiculously large and you can find any food that you want.

Food is mediocre and the portions are horrendously small. I would not recommend this place if you’re looking to get the bang for the buck.
