Great food every time! The philly is by far my favorite but the gyros are not far behind. Service is hit or miss but they always know how to cook up great food.

When I need the best cheese curds in the city(I’ve tried a ton of places) I come to pappys. I visit this location so frequently the cashier knows my order upon walking in. I’m always greeted with a friendly smile and two questions. The cashier says one of two prices of the two different foods I order. The cheese curds are amazing and to die for so are the cheese.

The Italian Beef Sandwich was good, but not worth the price waiting 15 minutes. I wish the staff made it clearer as to what constituted an «upcharge». Apparently, I paid 50 cents more for cheese and 50 cents more for peppers. To me, the bread was more memorable than the roast beef. This sandwich has nothing on the one of Portillo’s fame in Chicago.

The Italian beef is amazing! The giardenera is the best I’ve ever had. This is a simple quick and delicious dinner or lunch destination. I’ve thought about trying something else each time I’ve gone, but can’t stray from the dipped italian beef!

I have hit this place a number of times. There are so few options for this type of food in the twin cities. Had the Chicago style dogs along with a Philly cheesesteak. All were great. The Chicago dogs are only $ 2.69 or $ 3.99 with fries. Talk about a bargain. The dogs were stacked with peppers, onions, relish, pickle and a tomato slice. Fries were great. I am no expert on Philly cheese but it was very tasty.

After running a few errands today, I decided to try this place out for a philly cheesesteak. I looked over the menu board for other options, but decided on the philly anyways. I looked over the board for sides, but could not see fries on the board. I saw onion rings, mozzarella sticks and some other items, but no fries. This seemed strange to me. I placed my order at the register for a philly. He asked if I wanted a meal or just the sandwich. I found out a meal included fries and a beverage. I ordered it as a meal for eat in and paid the $ 9.45. I got my 16 oz cup for my beverage, which like most quick serve restaurants is self serve. I was surprised at such a small cup, but I am ok with that. If I want more soda, I can get a refill at no extra charge. After a few minutes my order was ready. It was in a to go box. The guy remembered it was for eat in and transferred it to a basket. Now how does this happen? He asked if it was for here or to go. I told him here, but for some reason my receipt shows take out. I take my basket of sandwich and fries to a booth. The booth was cleaned appropriately. The window sills could use a dusting. It could use a fresh coat of paint. While they are at it, would be nice if they select a different color. The yellow is not a decent color to me. Looking at my sandwich I was thinking this is supposed to be a philly cheese. Where’s the cheese? I opened the sandwich up a bit and finally saw some. They use swiss on their cheese steaks, but not very much. The beef to bread ratio was perfect. It had plenty of beef and some chopped peppers and onions. The roll was a nice sub roll, lightly toasted. They call it a 7 inch sandwich. I am not so sure it was, but close enough. The sandwich was very good. The fries were decent too. It was a perfect size sandwich for this«formerly big eater». Looking over the take out menu, I saw they had the regular size(7 inch) and a large size(12 inches). I did not see that option on the menu board of a regular or larger size. Why? Seems silly to me. How can I order a large sandwich, if I do not see it available on the board? Doesn’t seem like a good business practice to have a customer ask if there is a larger sandwich. A good philly is one where nothing more is needed to make it a tasty sandwich. No mustard, no ketchup, no hot sauce, no mayo. Nothing. The beef, cheese, peppers and onions make it flavorful enough. This did not disappoint in that area except it could use a bit more cheese. I had to look to see if there was any cheese. My disappointments with this place are: 1. Getting the order wrong. I ordered for eat in and it was written up as a to go order. One person, one order, not busy. That should not happen under these circumstances. 2. The take out menu lists a combo at $ 7.98. A combo is not listed on the menu board. The combo came out to $ 8.78 plus tax. I understand prices can increase. But get rid of the old printed take out menus and get new ones printed up. If they keep the same layout and adjust the pricing accordingly, it will not cost much to get new menus. The sign says Chicago Style Eatery. It’s been 20 years since I was in Chicago, so I can’t comment if this a Chicago Style Eatery or not. They have Chicago Style favorites, Chicago Dog, Maxwell Polish, Italian beef, etc. But do these items make it a Chicago Style Eatery? I think not. But others may disagree. I might return at some point for other items knowing full well the incompetence of the owner/management not training the employees the importance of listening to the customer and owner/management being too cheap to order take out menus reflecting the current prices.

The wife and I have been coming back for years now, always excellent. The prices have crept up over the years, but the food is totally worth it. We lovr the Italian beef, but tgr dogs and chicken are also great.

Want a taste of the Windy City in St Paul go to Pappy’s. They have all the delicious foods that’s found in the Chicago eatery’s. The prices are cheap and the food is good. I’ve never had a bad meal there. The neighborhood isn’t Beverly Hills but it’s part of the experience you may get a free show out of the deal.

First time here. Chicken gyro was legit and will most likely come back. We ordered to go and they gave it to us eat in style and when I politely asked for boxes since we ordered to go, the girl at the counter sighed and acted like it was our fault. This was actually pretty annoying since she also forgot part of our order and we were very polite.

Gotta go five star on this one. I was just there with my son and his fiancé and everything we ordered was fantastic! Although it has a fast food atmosphere and not much for ambiance, I wouldn’t have expected anything more. It’s a ghetto-style eatery, but it was clean and well maintained and the staff was friendly. I had the gyro and it’s exactly what I would expect in a good quality gyro. They even put the cucumber(dill? — I forget) sauce on the side which I really appreciated. The sandwich was overflowing and had plenty of gyro meat. My son ordered the pizza pocket, although small it tasted fantastic. He also ordered the hush puppys and they were amazing. His fiancé ordered the mafia sandwich and she said that was delicious as well. For dessert, my son ordered the lemon cake to go and it was phenomenal! Granted, it was in a plastic wrapper and was not made by Pappy’s, but he shared a little with me and Wow! TIP: Don’t go for the«value meal». My son did and it cost him an extra $ 2.99 for a soda and some fries. Totally not worth the extra cost in my opinion.

I have been here several times, and all of the times were really good until this last time I visited. The wings have gotten really small over the years, and the food quality wasn’t that great. The service wasn’t bad at all, but it’s always been fairly good, with that being said I can only say what I know to be true. This place to me was so great that I used to go every weekend, but not anymore.

The Pappy Burger makes all other burgers irrelevant. So, with the One Burger That Rules Them All right here in St. Paul, why would you go anywhere else? Not to mention pinball and Ms. Pac-Man to pass the time, this should be on your regular rotation of restaurants.

This is my favorite restaurant on the planet. The owner is this incredibly nice dude who I don’t think has the best grasp on english. That said, he does have the best grasp on food. This is the hidden gem I take all of my friends to. Anytime someone comes into town and wants somewhere unique to eat, I take em to Pappy’s. The Philly Cheesesteak sandwich is to die for, and always ask for extra seasoning on the fries. You’ll thank me later.

Not the greatest service or the cleanest place — almost made me want to take out instead of eating in. However, the food made up for it. I love Italian Beef and am always looking for new places that sell it. Unfortunately, most places outside of Chicago have not met my expectations. Pappy’s did! I love that they douse your sandwich — so much to the point that you have to use two hands and/or a fork. Expect to be using lots of napkins :) Also, great location. It’s literally down the block from me. Double score!

Best Gyros in town. I have had so many different variations. A gyro is a gyro blah blah blah, but it’s good here. RECOMMENDED: try the GYROBURGER!!! A unique and fullfilling item!!! Price is friendly too!

I was not at all impressed with their overly greasy, lacking in flavor, gyros. The fries were good, but that is about the only positive thing about the food. My wife had a Chicago dog which she described as «Meh. I’ve experienced better.» Will not be going there again because just from the internal appearance, it didn’t seem like a very clean place. I don’t exactly expect to see it on Kitchen Nightmares at some point, so don’t get me wrong. It wasn’t filthy, but when the stuff you can see is questionable it is a real concern because you know that a lot of proper cleaning and preparation cannot be seen by the customer.

I went to this place because of two reasons… 1. the Unilocal reviews were almost so i wanted to see what it was all about 2. I was starving and had just gone to U of M Family Physicians for a check up down the road… I asked the nurses if they had recommendations… She said Pappy’s. So we went! Very New Yorker service… No real nicities but straight business… Here’s your food fast and go away kind of attitude. I had the Chessesteak… made to order. Yum. Fries were crispy! They even had hot sauce ready to go. This is a really good location for a restaurant and the food is fresh. I highly recommend it.

Another place on my «I live really close and need to check it out» list. Having been to Uncle Franky’s a few weeks prior, I was in the mood to compare the Italian Beef. Good news. Very similar… which means… a damn hot mess of deliciousness. Cheap, tasty and you’ll not want to do much of anything for an hour or two afterwards. I’d give the nod to Uncle Franky’s mostly due to location/atmosphere. There are some east side thugs that revolve around Pappy’s but there’s also a lot of cops that tend to eat here. Either way. They are now on my list of «I’ve been to once but that was a while ago and I really need to go again and try something else.»
