We had dinner with two other couples at Papa's last Tiesday, May 14. It is the second time we have been to their new place. The restaurant is about 12 get wide for most of it. This results in a lot of traffic in a small place. People going back and forth by your table the whole time. I was... More

Papa's recently relocated and we wanted to experience the new location in downtown Prescott. We were not disappointed. The new decor was fresh and authentic. Having lived in Italy for years, I felt like I was back! The service, food, and personal attention was above and beyond. Go to Papa's in Prescott and, if you can get in, you will... More

Excellent food, attention to detail, warm/comfortable atmosphere where if you are lucky - Mama might share some of her latest "home" made soup. And did I mention yummy desserts? Yummy...

Made sure I made reservations for 11 people way in advance since it was graduation weekend for erau. Everything was fantastic, from the service, to the food. We were celebrating my mother in laws bday, and they brought her a treat. They also brought my son a treat for graduating. My family commented on how wonderful the food was. They... More

- - with a pasta creation to be long remembered (pasta aglio e oglio). Their menu suggests fresh broccoli for a dollar more -- heck, George Bush may have hated broccoli, but his loss is our gain. I asked how they got it so hot yet crisp - - our server just smiled. Sauteed garlic and olive oil for openers,... More

My wife and I have been regulars here since moving to Prescott almost 2 years ago, and I can honestly say we have never had a bad experience. My wife is Italian (her parents are from Sicily), so we first tried Papa's because of all the good reviews it had received. We have been sold on this place ever since.... More

This was our first time to Papa's and certainly will not be the last. The location is great - in downtown Prescott but just a block off the square so there is ample parking. We were greeting by a friendly hostess who made us feel like we were welcomed regular guests. The décor is very well done and creates a... More

My husband and I have been enjoying Papa's for years. The owners, Donna, Andrea, and family as well as the wonderful staff always make you feel like you are part of their family. The food is just the most delicious, is reasonably priced, and the portions are very generous. The ambiance and decor are lovely and welcoming. The servers are... More

Good beer and wine list. Food was very good. I had the lasagne. It was ok. My wife had the ravioli and raved about it. The ambiance was enjoyable. Very noisy though, so if you are going for a quiet meal, think again. I would however go back.
