on Citysearch Jun 29, 2010When I first went to Pizza Papalis, I looked at the menu and thought people had to be crazy to spend $15 on a small pizza. I actually left and refused to support a place that would charge that much for a pizza (I now know that... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 15, 2008As a Detroit native, now living in Atlanta (much love to Nancy's Pizza- u guys tried), I can say that Pizza Papalis remains at the top of my list for deep dish pies. The pies are packed with fillings such that every bite is... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 12, 2008The Deep dish is excellent, each drop is worth every dime. I prefer seafood, but sometimes go for the deep dish with pepperoni, and extra Italian sausages. When ever its my turn to pick all my friends know where we are... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 12, 2006Pizza Papalis is sooo good!! I agree with the post below, it is better than most Chicago deep dish. Although the wait time is long, it is definately worth it! Their chicken strips are very good and so are their salads.... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 20, 2006I've been endulging in the simply fabulous Chicago-style deep dish pizza at Pizza Papalis since I was a child. I'm 27 now. Their spinach deep dish pie (Popeye) is the most incredible food find in all of Greektown... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 11, 2006This place is average. The pizza is piled high and is pretty decent. The price and the wait are not worth the time. The people are rude. I would say this place is average, get a $5 pizza from one of those fast food places.... (more)

on Citysearch May 03, 2006<b>In Short</b><br>Elbow-to-elbow pizza fans crowd the place waiting for their pies. Expect a 35- to 40-minute wait while a deep-dish bakes. If time is of the essence ask for a flat pizza. Crusts are softer than most... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 15, 2006Ive eaten pizza 5 times a month for the last 20 years. You dont come by pizza this good too often. Great beer prices, phenomenal pies. For those worried about cost, rest assured. Its worth every penny. This is the real... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 19, 2005If you want great pizza in Detroit and don't have time to get to Chicago, this is the place. Ambience not for romantics, groups are perfect. Found the pizza to be great but slightly over priced but not unacceptable.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 06, 2005My fiance and I went to Pizza Papalis for the first time this past weekend. The food was good, but don't bother taking any home. Reheated it sucks. Also, I thought it was a bit expensive for two people. $20 for pizza for... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 26, 2005I am a traveler by trade. There is not a place that I have been that has pizza that taste this good. The crust is just right... just fluffy enough, just crisp enough, and it doesn't matter what you get on this pizza, it... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 26, 2005Who are you kidding? Anybody that says their pies are better than Lou Malnati's, Giordano's, Gino's East, or any other authentic Chicago deep dish pizzas is just pulling your gullible legs. At best, they are just... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 06, 2004Boyfriend and I ate along Greek Town and this was 1 spot we both agreed we had to try. We're from Chicago, so we know Chicago-Style Deep Dish pizzas. The atmosphere was live & kickin'. It is kid-friendly, and consists of... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 24, 2004Growing up in Detroit, I knew Pizza Papalis was the best pizza. It wasn't until I moved to Dallas, TX that I realized I was right all along. Nothing compares to Pizza Papalis! Now, I have my Mom bring me a pizza when she... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 29, 2004There's a Buddy's and a Pizza Papalis within about a block of each other in Dearborn so I decided I'd try out the Pizza Papalis. Now I wish I would have gone to Buddy's. Never have I not finished my half of the pizza for any... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 11, 2003Great atmosphere, good service, and the best pizza in a 100 mile radius. If you get it to-go, make sure you use metallic silverware. The pizza is so thick, that plastic stuff might not hold up. Park at Greektown... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 18, 2003I need to preface this review by mentioning that I'm not the number one proponent of chicago-style, deep-dish pizza, I'm a thin crust man. Even given this, I find Pizzapapalis overrated. The crust is so thick that its... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 06, 2003If you want stuffed pizza, then this is the only choice outside of Chicago. You'll wait to sit and it takes a good 45 mins to get your pie but it is worth the wait. (more)

on Citysearch Mar 06, 2003...this is one of the best pizzas I have had evah! As with all of PP's pizza, its rich, cheesey, the sauce is wonderfully favored, and you actually have large chunks of seafood (as opposed to tiny shrimp-like processed... (more)
