A friend of mine recommended the breadstick with the garlic butter, so we went there just for that. It did NOT disappoint! The bread itself was so crispy, and it was drowning in flavorful garlic butter. I would absolutely recommend it! Super friendly service too.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

BEST PIZZA EVER!! My parents had their first date in college here. It's never disappointed our family. We always eat here a couple times when we come to visit. Big slice cannot be beat. I've tried to find pizza similar in our area, but nothing can touch it. Side salads are so fresh and delicious house made ranch. Bread is so yummy and fluffy! Tiramisu is good, but the chocolate chip cookie is even better! They sell out of cookies fast. Don't miss the best pizza🍕😋

My wife and I were traveling from Ohio to Berea for our daughter’s college soccer game and wanted to try something local instead of a chain restaurant. Papa Leno’s came highly rated, and it absolutely lived up to the hype! I ordered the 10” Meat Lovers pizza, and it was excellent — you could tell the dough was made fresh, with just the right amount of crisp and chew. Every bite had that perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and toppings. The restaurant itself had a great small-town, lively vibe. There was a line out the door when we arrived, but it moved quickly. While ordering, we could see the staff tossing dough and preparing food right in front of us — you can tell they take pride in what they do. Overall, Papa Leno’s didn’t disappoint. If you’re in Berea and craving good pizza with a welcoming atmosphere, this is definitely the spot to check out!
