Papajoe's Pizza

This is type of place you get your food and move the heck on. He takes the call barely says two words and your food will be ready and delicious in no time. If you call he might text you instead. Don’t expect any type of award winning service. The food is good and worth it. Pizza has plenty of tuoppings and cheese and the dough soft with a little crisp.

We're new to lakewood and looking for for a new pizza place. They are affordable and It is AMAZINGLY tasty and flavorful! Try it out and enjoy

Small hole in the wall place, but the pizza was excellent! One of the best around town! Prices are right!

I read a review about this place? Locked door, dark, call in your order, your order will be made even without yhem taking your name.... all true. A few weeks ago my brother in law brought us some pizza from here..... and it was delicious. Now yes, costco&sams have pizzas under $10, here a large is 14.99+tax but you get choices, many choices. My niece, her husband and her daughter said, this is the BEST pepperoni pizzas they've EVER had. I agree it is really really good. Their Hawaiian pizza is very good too, and my personal favorite. So I am making this my pizza place for takeout pizza for my family gatherings when pizza is craved. I imagine the locked metal security door is for their protection and safety. With so many break-ins, I'd keep the door locked too if I worked or owned that place. The door has an opening for 3 large pizza boxes to pass thru, they park their car in the driveway so only street parking is available. Quoted 20 minutes, I usually arrive early because I don't want my food to sit and wait for me, but that's just me, I waited a few minutes outside. I only saw 1 person inside, hustling so be patient or order ealier if you need them at a specific time.

Never answer the phone

Pizza is awesome and toppings are generous. But this isn't a place to loiter or hang around. Simply call, state your order, owner will say thank you and hang up. It will be a 15 second call and he will not ask your name or callback number. But trust me, he got the message and will be making your pizza. When you get there you will approach an odd looking black door, it will be closed. If no one is around go ahead and call. The whole transaction will take place through a closed door with a pizza sized hole in the center. They say the shadiest spots have the best food and that rings true for this place. Only downside is the hours are inconsistent and the owner doesn't always answer

Pizza very very good, definitely will be back. Prices good. I'm a picky eater but very suprise that food was super good...
