The Rundown:Local Italian chain with friendly service, a decent setting and some solid flavor profiles - but some recipe improvements could be made.The Review:Parents were in the mood for Italian, wanting to try somewhere different we settled on Papa Lozzi. I appreciate their being open for lunch! The interior was had a relatively intimate feeling setting and had a classy bar - though the massive empty area in the back was kind of odd. Not sure if they were remodeling or if it's used for something else but I'd recommend perhaps putting up a curtain wall or something as it detracted from the experience if you were seated near the back.Our server (Brandon I believe was his name) was very attentive and catered to substitution requests (like adding a side of pasta, and adding cheese and pepper to the bread dipping sauce) with ease. The bread was nice and crunchy, and the dipping oil pairing was a nice and classic touch. I love soup and was hoping for some Italian wedding but the soup of the day I understand changes and this visit was Stracciatella. I've never had it before (it was described as "Italian egg drop") and it was a nice light soup. Personally I'm a fan of stock, but I would certainly be open to ordering it again. The strange (and amusing?) thing was the decision to use large table spoons for the soup cups. It took up about half the size! An interesting choice. For the main entree I decided upon puttanesca. They weren't kidding around with the chili flakes and it was a bit spicy for my taste but the overall balance of the olives, anchovies, all blended together perfectly and created a lovely flavor profile for the sauce. I definitely would recommend! Another in our group got lasagna and I'm not sure what it was but the sauce was incredibly bland. Perhaps some salt and pepper? Garlic? Not positive but it was not a dish I'd recommend. I still cannot tell if they did or did not claim to make their own pasta (read mixed info, including on menu). It did not taste homemade so there was that to be aware of in case anyone is hopeful for that crafted taste but it was cooked perfectly.Overall, it's nice to see a local Italian restaurant in the area. While some items shined and others were disappointing, I do think it's worth giving them a visit if you're in the mood for an independent restaurant experience. (Oh and a note - they offer 10% discount for cash purchases.)

This time we didnt feel like going out but wanted some good Italian food, so we ordered online for takeout. The website was very sluggish and wouldn't process our order, so we had to call to get it processed.I ordered chicken parmigiana and a Caesar salad. The chicken parmigiana was prepared in the most unusual way, it was put between 2 pieces of pita instead of on top of pasta. I didn't want the pita, so I had to pick it off which wasn't easy as all the cheese had stuck to it. As a result it was very dry with very little sauce, it tasted good, but not what I wanted.The pesto penne was really good, salad was fine. We also got a caprese salad, but the cheese was too salty and the balsamic had a muted flavor. Disappointed with this experience unfortunately.

Overall, this is a solid spot for filling pastas and pizzas. It won't blow your socks off, but it's a great family dining option for dinner out. The price is a bit expensive for what you get, though. They also have a full bar. I came with a large party, and the servers did a great job accommodating us. They pushed together several tables, and the restaurant wasn't very packed, so we were well taken care of. We ate four pasta dishes, the spinach salad, and two pizzas family-style. It was enough for 8 adults. I highly recommend the carbona and the pizzas. However, I would not recommend the spinach salad. It was a bust. We ordered it for the goat cheese, but the dressing tasted like smuckers jelly. The rest of the food was solid. Good portions. I didn't feel too heavy afterward. Something that detracted from the experience was that one of our tables kept nearly collapsing every time anyone put any amount of weight on one side. When we told the server, she just shoved a door stop under one of the table legs.... I mean, I think you should just get another table at that point. The atmosphere felt kind of run-down when she did that. Overall, I give this spot a 4 because the service and the food are good, but it's your average Italian restaurant.

I am going to give Papa Lozzi a solid 3, no more no less. Straight up on the scale of authentic bs Italian American, this is not authentic, it is old style Italian American. Pasta with meatballs and chicken on a bed of linguini Italian American, so I am using that perspective for my review, as I always do for fairness. Service. Impeccable if a bit slow. Very friendly and lovely gentleman. Didn't catch his name but I really enjoyed him working with us. Ambiance is casual strip mall Italian American. Yet cozy, so good.Food. I had the chicken mushroom marsala with broccoli. It was good!Daughter one had the mussels marinara and it was good. Daughter two had the gnocchetti and that did not have much flavor so thumb down. Bottle of prosecco was really good and extremely cold so good. As I said. Solid 3 stars.

Great pizza. I ordered takeout sausage and mushroom well done pizza. Superb pizza! Crispy and chewy crust. Sauce had chunks of tomato and not overly sweet and plenty of it. Good amount of mushrooms and sausage. The salad was very fresh with a creamy lemon dressing. Unfortunately it was not salad I ordered that was to have radicchio, arugula, and endive.1 star off due to service. I waited over 10 minutes after promised time even though I went later than expected. I had to ask for an update and the waitress became a little perturbed with me for asking. Disappointing with the wait (I think they forgot about my order) and the giving me spring mix instead of the specialty salad I ordered and they never said anything but still charged me the same amount.

Went with my husband and daughter. The food was very mediocre. In addition, there's a VERY loud sports bar next door and it felt like we were inside the bar instead of having dinner.

STAY AWAY!Service was friendly, food was awful.I cannot remember having a pizza worse than this one. Nothing like photos previously posted here (see my photo) - dough was bad, cheese was meh, and there was no sauce (!!!), only slices of tomato. I just read a 1-star review here and their pizza looked much better. We also had a pasta that was super overcooked.

I made a reservation in person yesterday for tonight (Feb 14th). Arrived a little early knowing that today is busy in most places. We were not greeted as the front desk was empty, after 10-15 minutes we got shown to our table and were told that a server will be with us shortly. Was proceeds from there is another 25 minutes of waiting with more people being sat but no server shows up. The worse part was getting tend to after all others before us. We left after receiving water and a basket of bread since the appetizer we ordered was not available. After that we made another reservation to a different Italian restaurant where we are now. Hopefully the experience will be better.
