“ (Delivered 10/19/21 TU @ 5:30pm): John was quite a papa of pizza delivery; he may be your daddy! Because of my laziness and a promotional email coupon, I decided to redeem it at the local Papa John's Pizza in East Hollywood. Mind you, I've been eating a ton of pizza since early September from various locations as well as the homemade variety. Needless to say, I loved pizza but the amount of pie that has been eaten over a span of a month was obscene! How was my first encounter with this parlor location!? PURCHASE Garlic Knots w/Marinara Dipping Sauce 8pc ($6.49): Large chewy and puffy mounds of bread covered in garlic butter and parmesan cheese, I thoroughly enjoyed these and would've been satisfied with this as an inexpensive meal. However, I was disappointed in the lack of any actual garlic pieces or barely an aroma https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=DZjIWyhqVTcgXkEAYglEBw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Honey Chipotle Chicken Poppers w/Garlic Dipping Sauce 10pc ($6.99): Lathered in tangy sweet honey chipotle sauce oddly paired with garlic dipping sauce, these poultry nuggets were made with white meat but were unevenly cooked while the outer breading was more soft and at times mushy than crispy and fried as I expected. I would probably pass on these next time https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=MuLw_MLqPQPQNs_4IoKfMA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Original Crust Philly Cheesesteak Specialty Pizza w/Garlic Dipping Sauce Large ($19.99): I loved a properly made Philly cheesesteak sandwich in my case plenty of thinly-sliced seasoned steak, spicy peppers, chopped white onions, all stuffed between a flaky loaf and lovingly topped with Cheese Whiz - brilliance! Their pizza version swapped the Cheese Whiz with a ton of mozzarella cheese, lacked the onions, and wished there was more steak and spicier peppers. Otherwise, this was a hefty pizza that had enough Philly cheesesteak essence with a crispy crust and garlic dipping sauce I used for the crust. I'd order this again but might have a can of Cheese Whiz on hand and some chopped onions just in case https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=nT23Og-8vsYHM0h6Ku_g8Q&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. SERVICE Ordered online where the process was very streamlined and user-friendly, I placed my order in minutes and was able to use the promo code at the final checkout step. You were also given a tracker and had the option to receive text message updates, you were able to follow your order from start to finish. The delivery person ($4.99 fee) called me when he arrived with pretty boxes https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=GNn62NiE77MS0VA79YyxVw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw and piping hot food - bravo! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance) Familiar with their brick-and-mortar location (from the outside at least), they were located inside a small strip mall shared with several businesses with plenty of metered parking along the main drag of Vermont ave. and all surrounding streets, I was in the comfort of my own home on my couch - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Having never been inside their location, I had no idea what to expect. Maybe if I decided to order takeout one day (I don't think they had inside dining) I'd provide an update with pictures. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL As a first-time customer of East Hollywood's Papa John's Pizza, I was pretty happy with my experience and would definitely consider them again. I honestly couldn't think of the last time I had Papa John's Pizza from anywhere. Plus, I rarely bought from a chain pizza joint unless I was starving. The prices were comparable, the food was good but not great, the menu was varied enough, and the service was more than fine. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $40.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS ”
