Wanted to try new pizza experience we decided to give Papa John's a try, ordered the daily offer of large pizza for 31 dh and it was amazing, we had the turkey ham topping and it was yummy to the core, fresh pizza oven made for you with a delicious topping make you go yumm.
The daily deal is a good offer and must try.
Seating easily available in festival center food court.
Parking also available.
The pastas are super heavy! Personally I like the house pasta.
Pastas come with breadsticks, if you finish the entire plate be ready for a good sleep.
I have ordered spicy ranch pizza and their cheese bites countless times and every single time it’s the same consistent yumm taste. I can easily say that this is one of the best spicy ranch pizzas in Dubai. The ranch sauce is combined with jalapeños gives it a kick. The jalapeños are not too spicy or sour. Their cheese bites are delicious too. Fresh stringy cheese on medium crisp bread base. Pepperoni rolls are perfect eaten fresh. I am not a pepperoni fan but these rolls are likable. They often have offers. Specially on Tuesdays. Also available on entertainer for buy one get one free.
Located in the festival city mall. Nice place to hangout with friends when we come to the mall for shopping. Each of us ordered pizza for one selecting the pizza of our choices. It consisted of a small pizza, cheesesticks and a drink. Loved the pizzas here. Had a good time, worth a visit.
If you're a pizza lover then you must try out Mexican Ole flavor at Papa Johns. The quality of the dough is always fresh and soft at this branch. I also like their chicken wings and have them with my meal.
We always love to eat chicken spicy ranch because its our all times favourite from many years, other pizza outlets also introduced this flavour as well but they can not compete this flavour. We sometimes add pineapple in half of our pizza just to add some more flavour according to out taste buds.
A nice papa johns place, always busy because of excellent taste. I would recommend chicken spicy Ranch. Add chicken wings if you feel Pizza is not enough for one.
Food and service is great. Wait was not long at all despute a large order. Would definitely eat here again if I crave for pizza while at the location.
Got take away from this papa's when I was in Dfc. We ordered the spicy ranch meal for one and a medium stuffed crust pepperoni. Both the pizzas were yummy and worth the money paid. I've only had the small size of stuffed crust before and tried it on medium only now. The crust being stuffed with mozzarella seemed a little less than the small size stuffed crust. It was tasty but pizza hut crust is better but the garlic butter dip as a combo with sruffed crust was great.
Ordered for a spicy chicken ranch meal which came along with cheese sticks and their famous garlic butter. Loved the food, will definitely visit this outlet again someday.
pros: quick service, friendly staff, quantity, quality, reasonable rates.
cons:
Good, yummy pizza that’s fresh, flavorful, without being all greasy and heavy. I do wish though that Papa John’s would bring back their pickled pepper - red pepper flakes just don’t have the same kick.
Ordered a family meal with spicy chicken ranch pizza which is simply amazing the crust toppings and the ranch sauce is the perfect combination the starters chicken poppers and potato are really nice, a place to visit once a while, parmesan sticks are recommended
We ordered with buy one and 2nd free coupon, the pizzas were yummy and the amount of cheese and stuffing were perfect, service is fast, good customer service and ample seating space in the food court.
I have been here plenty of times.
Even though most of the people don't like Papa Johns , I'm a big fan.
I love the garlic sauce and the chili that they serve along with their pizzas.
While compared to other pizza joint's they are time consuming so if you are starving please don't order from here because you will seriously loose your patience. It took about 40 mins for us to be delivered.
But it's different in taste and since it's in a food court you have plenty of places to sit .

Hubby's favorite pizza joint. Best thing about these pizzas is that it's not dry and the garlic sauce which is served gives a whole new flavor to the pizzas. Baked and cooked to perfection.
Papa Johns.....nice pizzas and i like the sides chicken stips pepperoni etc......staffs are also very friendly......but the waiting time is litttle difficult......
Always a great time with Papa Johns pizza and friends!!! Ordered the Spicy Chicken Ranch and Green Garden Special Delight. Spicy Chicken Ranch is grilled chicken with ranch sauce , tomatoes, jalapeños and mushrooms . This is the only pizza we order for non vegetarians. And the Green Garden Special Delight is a good pizza for vegetarians. It is mushrooms , black olives , tomatoes , jalapeños and have a yummy alfredo sauce base. For Pasta lovers, this is one pizza which you must try . Generally the pizza always comes comes with a small box of garlic sauce . But sometimes they usually do not have garlic sauce. So to dip the pizza, a small box of tomato paste is given.
If you have the Entertainer App, it becomes really convenient as you can buy one large pizza and get another large pizza for free. And if the pizza is shared amongst 4 people , then it becomes really cheap per person.
My hunger for spaghetti was greatly satisfied! I didn’t expect much but I like the taste of Papa John’s spaghetti. A little bit Italian with a twist. I specially love those extra cheese and spices. I actually finish the whole order by myself. :P
The chicken barbeque that I ordered was delicious and the presentation of the food could be improved. The staff is kind and the prices are considerate.
Pizza is most desired and complete meal to satisfy hunger. Papa John's thin crust Pizza with Cheese, Chicken and mushroom is my favorite.
I will request management to introduce whole wheat base as well.
The best kids pizza ever. The little one loved it and ate it all without the need for any prompting.
Attitude of staff require quite an upgrade. The saving grace is that its in a food court and you really do not have to get any service.

Tried for the first time in DFC and liked it a lot. Pizza is not that good but the sides such as cheesticks and pepparoni rolls and with garlic and butter sauce makes its yum.
Cheese sticks along with garlic dip has always been my all time favorite . No matter what I make sure once a month to visit Papa Johns and have their sticks . Ordered for the same it was freshly prepared and served super hot to me within 10 mins of time . The sticks were incredible like always super cheesy , crunchy and good in taste . Staff people were decent and pricing wise PJ has always ben pocket friendly .
Just another Domino's Pizza... nothing more, nothing less. The store is clean, staff is professional, food is good.Overall, Papa johns is awesome!!
The best pizza in town.
I have had pizza's all around town but nothing beats Papa Johns. Sadly this is the only proper branch they have, all other branches are at petrol stations or inside mall food courts.
Last time papa johns was really crowded as usual and you have to wait for a while for your table then stand in a line to order the service is not good overall but food is great
Papa johns has some great value deals for individual meals which is for 24 dhs/- with mini cheesesticks and your choice of pizza and drink which i think is great portion and an ideal meal for lunch .Love their well done classic pizzas straight from the oven freshly baked .
Definitely recommend 👍

As the name suggest and also my favorite Pizza station in town..Papa John's you just rule my heart.They always surprise me with their delicious pizzas and also their additives which obviously have to be chicken wings.Too delicious to resist it.
Love their staff,ambiance,food and of course the hospitality at its best.
For Pizza cravings, definitely you can go for Papa John's... I usually order online and they haven't failed me yet. Food come still hot and fresh. No hard pizzas for me yet.
I found papa johns very okay. I ordered chicken florentine. Pizza was really okay. Compare to pizza hut or Domino's... papa johns was fine but that good not that bad.

You got a pizza my review Papa John (Pun Intended) I am not really a pizza guy anymore but this place serves some real tasty varieties of fast food pizza. their starters and especially the sauces go well with the pizza's.

Been here recently at festival city. Since theres whole lot of changes happening at the food court ivo renovation, most of the outlets are shifted and new seating arrangements provided till all is done.
The outlet was crowded hence chose the alternative seating. Chose the pepperoni pizza and the supreme pizza. In 20-30 mins it was done and didnt delay.
Pizzas as usual were good. Now next time eill wait for the food court renovation to be done to dine in.
A great Pizza place, their service, food and location is very convenient. Their located in the food court but have their own seating area where you can sit down, look through their menu and place your order. I recommend trying any one of their pizzas! They're very delicious! Oh and their cheesy sticks are also very very yummy!
Being vegetarians we had only one pizza option to choose. Taste was OK (not bad ). When compared to the quality of the food PIZZA Hut can be rated better than papa john's. But I highly appreciate the service here. Although the place was crowded on weekends here the staff here are really too good and they provide quick service .
I usually love having my pizza from papa johns! chicken ranch is my all time favorite but this time it wasn't that good.. I felt that it was a bit dry, and even tho it's the small size I should've had some chicken in my chicken pizza :) the pasta wasn't that good either I felt that it needed some spices and specially some salt!
Entertainer voucher zindabad! Used the offer to buy one large pizza and get one free.
We asked for half and half of both pizzas and got to taste four different flavours.
Ordered the chicken bbq (very good), garlic chicken with jalapeños (spicy and note served with chicken sausage pieces), turkey and pineapple (good) and papas most popular mixed meat (good).
Pizzas taste best when hot! Enjoyed it.
As the mall is having some renovation taking place this place seemed overcrowded. There were limited seatings the ac was either kept at low or was not sufficient for such a big crowd. The food they serve is fresh. If you a family of 4 I would recommend you to take the faimly meal which is economical. You have choice of 2 medium pizza, one salad, I recommend you to try their spicy chicken ranche pizza, hot and spicy chicken pizza, chicken strips. One thing I must appreciate them is that they told us it will take them 20min to serve the order due to holiday rush and exactly in 20 min the food was on our table.
Difficult to get a sitting place especially after lot of food court is taken for some construction, we got a offer from zoom enoc of two medium pizza for 66 there is no afdons and the pizza seemed small for 66 there is no area to sit and dine and we ordered takeaway and still had to wait 30 min to get our pizza
I just loved the iftar all you can eat 29 aed offer. It good if we go in a big group for this offer since more the people are there more varieties we can try.
Well i like papa johns since my college days specially for the cheesesticks. I think papa johns serves the best cheesy garlic bread compared to the other pizza brands. And, this time we ordered meal for two for 49 dhs and it was more than enough for us both. #yummyfood #pizzalovers #cheesesticksmyfavorite

Ages ago I had been to Papa John's in India and I did not like it at all, but my friend and I were in the mood for pizza and this was the only one in Festival city.
We ordered the Mexican Ole pizza (and made it a meal - with chicken wings and drinks - which is much more cost effective). The description looked very tempting. It took about 15 mins for them to prepare. The whole meal cost just AED 49 !
The pizza tasted really good with juicy chunks of chicken, cheese and the vegetables. They did not offer any chilli flakes or oregano seasoning along with it which was a bit of a dissappointment.
The pizza was quite filling; the right amount of ingredients; the base was just right as well.
The chicken wings were finger lickin' good (yes, I know this is not 'that' place, but yes, they were that good)! They came with a tangy spicy dip on the side which really enhanced the taste a lot!
In fact, this made the pizza taste a bit bland at the end.
I'd suggest to try the chicken wings. The pizza is good too but I wouldn't say great.
P.S. The photo is of the chicken wing on the pizza, so that's not just the pizza by itself.
Good appetizers (cheese sticks) and amazing veggie pizzas, quick service and friendly staff.. Have always been greeted while entering and exiting.
Really amazing place for pizza
Really tasty pizza
Also must try cheese sticks
Their garlic sauce n pasta sauce are good
Nice Pizzas! They have a simplified menu which doesnt confuse people even after having a lot of varieties. Value for money and great taste.

They aren't kidding when they advertise about how pizzas bring about good times and fun. Papa Johns has really nice pizza- one of best among all generic fast-food outlets you can see everywhere. They have some decent pasta too- I had their Papa's special pasta (bake- chicken) and their pizzas- the Mexican pizza + Bbq pizza.
The restaurant is at the corner of the foodcourt in Dubai Festival City (on the right side food court, after KFC, Villa Tuscan, McDonald's etc) its easy to miss if you dont walk all the way to the end of the food court. The biggest plus point being it has a dedicated seating area and not just the foodcourt seating. I like that, feels more like you are in a restaurant and not in a regular food court.
The Papa's special pizza is crusty on the top with baked melted cheese covering with yummy flavorsome tomato sauce and chicken garlic, mushroom drowned penne pasta. I usually spice up everything a bit more so I added some dried red chilli to it as well. Just for even better. Definitely one to try, people.
The Mexican pizza maybe called so because of the 50-50 ratio of topping space between jalapenos and cheese. Hey I'm not the one to complain, I loved it! They also give this nice garlic oily dip which is quite yummy provided you have it poured over your steaming hot pizza.
I dont mind showing up at Papa Johns every now and then, they've been good to me :)
At 30 Dhs for a decent pizza/pasta meal + drink, its not so bad :)
