Papa's Italian

Quiet place at 3 in the afternoon. Had the place to ourselves. They have a large menu with lots of options even for the kiddos.
I created my own, pepperoni, sausage, bacon, cheddar with their homemade Alfredo as the base sauce, it is pictured.
And the meat sub, all items were delicious.
Our server Karen was attentive and very friendly.

Just had the best meal I’ve had in a long time. Ordered take out; order process was easy, delivery was fast and food arrived hot and faster then the time advised. The amount of food in an order allows me to have leftovers of their amazing home made spaghetti and meatballs. This one high quality place. Order was on time and error free and is my new go to!

Great little feed trough. Great waitresses. Always positive and upbeat. Delicious food.
Been here several times...never left unsatisfied or unhappy.

This pizza joint was a great find! Just outside the cities but worth the drive if you're looking for tasty 'za and impeccable friendly service. The pizza sauce is tangy, and the crust is not too thick nor not too thin. The pizza ovens are well seasoned, making for a delicious old-school pizza joint flavor.

The staff are super friendly, helpful, and quick to refill your glass. Just all-around great service. Try out Papa's Italian Pizza in Zimmerman MN. You won't regret it!

Food was great!

Better than that, was Jade our server.

We have never been here, Jade offered to give advice about the menu without hesitation.

She was polite, courteous, and could banter with the best of them.

Not only that, is she RAN that floor. People came in and she acknowledged them, while doing six other things with a smile on her face.

Drinks were never empty, we were checked on multiple times, and she did it all with the vigor and energy that is rarely seen by someone in their early 20’s.

Jade - thank you for being fantastic. You are bound for greatness with that attitude and work ethic.

We are both still blown away by this experience!

5/5 star service - 5/5 star food.

100/100 Jade

Fun small town spot with tastey grub and phenomenal service!

Meatballs and the pizza pie were favorites at our table!

Our waitress Sara was awesome!

Service was fast, staff was friendly, atmosphere for a Friday after work was warm and welcoming. Pizza was amazing. Can’t wait to try the lasagna next week. 👍🏼😋

I go here at least once a month with my grandma and I have to say I love the atmosphere in Papa's Italian.
The waitress is a doll and is always on point with what you need.
The food is make in a pretty good time and they also have a mini buffet (around 4 or 5 items)
Soups are out of this world!!
They also serve wine and some beers
I strongly recommend this place if you want to just sit and relax without a concent stream of people going in and out.

We have ordered several times from Papa's in Zimmerman. And every time everything was fresh and delicious. It may take a little more time to get to your door but it's worth it. Today, i needed a pick me up and I ordered a Papa's pizza. My sadgirl vibes were strong, but the person on phone took care of me...and I got delicious food 20mins later....everything was perfect.

The lasagna was delicious and homemade. The gyro was exceptional. I'll recommend this place to anyone.

This may be the best pizza I've ever had. The Chicago pan style is my favorite crust. Also my family says their ranch sauce is amazing. They have loyalty rewards if you buy food, so make sure to fill that out and eventually get some free pizza. Never actually went inside to eat, only take out, but it looks a little small. Cheese bread is outstanding and they even have the option to put crushed red pepper under the cheese before baking, so it makes the pizza spicy!! Definitely try that.

It's all in the sauce and crust. Sauce is slightly sweet, not too acidic, and so delicious. The crust is as close to a real neopolitan crust as you can get. Thin, and crunchy without ever being burnt, but with still a good thicker ring around the edge to cure your bread craving. Top those 2 with a perfect gooey stringy mozzarella and fresh toppings, and you have the best pizza in the state in my opinion. I live down in Elk River, and can't wait for Fridays when I work in the area and get to have some of their pizza. The staff is always friendly and concerned that their product is top notch. The perfect mom and pop shop, and blows those chains outta the water.

Great food, they use plenty of cheese! Papa pie in the picture.

Love the pizza here! It's a little spendy but totally worth it!

A small, close-knit feeling place with great pizza and amazing ranch sauce.

For a small town Italian spot this is the best place to go for pizza and pasta!! The staff jade is amazing and very friendly!! Pizza is amazing along with the pasta. I will be coming back for sure!!

Service is always the best and the pizza/food, so good!

Amazing, we drive all the way from South St Paul to eat here. Amazing taco calzone!

We've had pizza all over, from Chicago to NYC and everything in between. Just moved to the area and figured we'd give this place a shot. It's honestly the best pizza I have ever had. Can't pick one negative thing about it. Service was great as well.

I love eating here, I'm not sure how many people realize how good it is! ☺ Great food with an excellent value! Plus always friendly staff. This is where we go when we want to eat out but the account is somewhat low... and sometimes we just go here because the food sounds delicious 😋
