Was craving pizzas and decided to try a place I hadn't yet. This brought me to Papa Luigi's. I ordered a 14" pepperoni and sausage with some extra cheese. I also ordered a Cookie Butter Banana Cream Pie. Yes, you read that right; heaven on a plate. And yes, you also read that right, it was most certainly heavenly. My tastebuds were singing hallelujah. Was the food worth it?! Absolutely not! This small slice of pie cost me $14!!! It was still delicious. Do I regret it? Yes! But I was doing a happy dance. Hands down, not worth it at all. Should you try it? Yes. But it's not worth it. So delicious though. Like for real. So good. The pizza and the pie were so yum. Not worth it. But definitely give it a try! Also, this was technically through DoorDash. I had no qualms with either. Will I come back/reorder? Yes. But it will not be worth it! But I'll hope it'll still be as delicious as this time. TBC...

Papa Luigi's Tiramisu: Papa Luigi's opened in 1982 by founder Sal Purpora. He's since passed running the business on to one of his sons, but they still use Sal's mom's Sicilian recipes. The restaurant has plenty of menu options, but I'm skipping to dessert. I'm told tiramisu translates to "pick me up" or "cheer me up" and it certainly did. Its origins are disputed to be from the Italian regions of Veneto or Friuli-Venezia Giulia. It is a coffee flavored dessert made with ladyfingers dipped in coffee or espresso, layered with a sweet, whipped mascarpone cream, and flavored with cocoa. As it is made with coffee there is caffeine in it, but it is a miniscule amount as typically only a half cup of coffee is used for an entire cake (and this is just one piece). I've never had a dessert with a texture quite like tiramisu. It's difficult to describe, but it is rather interesting. It has some cake-like properties to it, but it's "spongier" and there are the layers of whipped cream. I say spongy, but soggy might be more accurate as it's dipped in coffee/espresso. The whipped cream is my favorite part as it's sweet, rich, and pairs perfectly with the more bitter flavor of coffee. If you love coffee and dessert than tiramisu is a must try. Doughboy approved.

Can't believe I haven't reviewed this place! This is our go to pizza place. The pepperoni pizza is my favorite. Not only is the pizza delicious but they also have great pasta dishes! The servings are quite large. Our family recently used them for catering our Christmas celebration for 18 people. I worked with Janet and she was great. We did the pizza party package which included garlic bread, salad, pizza and mostacholli pasta. If you pay with card, there is a service charge, so if you can, pay with cash.

Grabbed a 16" pepperoni and sausage with 12 Buffulo wings through DoorDash. The wings were surprisingly good as I typically don't like breaded wings. The sauce was very flavorful and the wings had plenty of sauce on them. The pizza was hand tossed and came with plenty of toppings. Although the pizza was round, it was cut square. It's not bad pizza for the price but a bit on the chewier/thicker side.

I recently placed an online order and selected fresh mushrooms. Immediately after, I realized it mistakenly said canned mushrooms. I called within 30 seconds to correct the order, but the person on the phone said they couldn't change it because it was already made. There's no way it was prepared in just 30 seconds.We order from here regularly, spending $50-$100 every week during summer pool parties. It's disappointing to lose a customer due to such inflexibility. The timestamp shows I called less than 30 seconds after the order was confirmed. Are you seriously telling me you made the entire pizza in 25 seconds and couldn't make the adjustment?

Craving some pizza before I fly home, an easy drive close to the MKE airport. Sat at the bar, service was great and the atmosphere was really nice - a newer brick place and was pretty clean. I was a bit confused on the pizza choosing between original thin; thick; or hand tossed as it seemed like there wasn't much difference. Went hand tossed, and the bottom still had a nice texture without being too crispy. It's a no brainer to come back as the pizza was great

In A Nutshell:-Papa Luigi's was a god-send for a pre-carb up meal prior to my triathlon.-It was near the bike shop I rented a bike in Cudahy.-I really enjoyed this no-frills Italian restaurant that appears to have a rich history serving up delicious eats.-I sat down & ordered a delicious Angel Hair Garlic Chicken Pasta meal.-It came w/ two big pieces of buttery garlic bread too.- I really enjoyed the amount of food that I got, it really was tasty, the chicken was so tender & the flavor of the garlic sauce was amazing.-The thin angel hair noodles were piping hot & cooked al dente.Overall, the service here is also very good, I would definitely recommend grabbing some food here.

The pizza is always good. The service is always good. The only problem is when we get there after 7:30 pm, it seems they are always vacuuming and cleaning the floors. This makes us feel like we are being rushed out the door. Closing time is 10 pm on weekends.
