“Blandest pizza dough I've tasted”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2010
3
people found this review helpful

The high rating on Trip Advisor caused me to check this place out. I love pizza (who doesn't?) and I'm a person who judges any pizza on two things: the bread and the sauce. First of all, if this is one of the best places for pizza in the area, I don't want to know what the worse place is. Well, this is one of the worst breads I've come across, it was very bland. One wonders if this is intentional since the complimentary bread sticks brought to the table are also bland, made from the same dough as the pizza. The flavor of the ingredients and the sauce are thus more noticeable because the bread is so flavorless. The sauce was ok. The pizza tastes and even looks like a Pizza Hut pizza without the greasy crust. It was not a bad place, just not great. One thing I did like is the large plastic glasses they use for beverages since I like to drink alot of tea or soda when dining in.

“Great place!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2010

We saw this on the way to the beach and decided to go there after beaching. When we got there we weren't sure about it being really busy. It was worth the wait and the best pizza I have ever had. The service was great and friendly. The atmosphere was cozy and very family oriented. Not only do they have pizza, they have fudge!!!

“great pies, but will never return”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2010

as an island resident, i have ordered pizza from padre pizzeria many times, but for delivery, never dine-in. so tonight, as we (the wife, the son and i) we talking about what to do for dinner, my son suggests we go eat at padre pizzeria; i say "ok." so we get there and they are a little busy, so we have to wait about 15 min for a table...understandable. about 10 minutes after that, we order, and about 35 min after we order, we see three other tables who ordered AFTER us get their pies. this of course infuriates me, so i go to the front counter where the OWNER is standing and i tell her what is going on. she apologizes, says we don't have to pay, and that our food would be right out. after i sit back down and start cooling off, yet ANOTHER table gets their food. I grab the family and walk out, look the owner in the eye and tell her to forget it. i will never go back.
