Manager just stole from me, ill be calling the district manager. Went to pay for a single XL pizza and when i tapped the card the lady manager clicked the 20% tip on the credit card reader and told me thats how we charge for sauce cups….WHAT?!?! Thats insane, $5 for two sauce cups would already be wrong, but that is straight theft from the customer to her wallet and not the company.

I thought I would give it a try last time was 10 years ago. First tried to order carryout on website. 20 minutes wasted would not accept any cards and poor user experience. Called store an 55 to 60 minutes for $25 pizza and 2 litter bottle. Hope at least the pizza is good.

I’ve known of papa John’s pizza is one of the best all around. But my last order was undercooked like I known it was about the closing time but I couldn’t think of the rush inside those guys to go home

This location is unorganized and not well managed. We live less than miles away but called and are outside of their delivery range.

This is a painful review to write. I have been a customer of the Papa John’s Rancho Santa Margarita location for many years. Due to poor handwashing practices, I stopped going to this location and started visiting the Papa John’s on El Toro Rd (where this review is posted). Customer Service is fantastic and my pizza is typically made exactly how I order. On one occasion, I saw a live cockroach walk across the floor and crawl up the wall on the right side near the drink refrigerator. I pointed it out to the manager on duty who told me it must have walked in from outside. This caused me to stop going to this location for 4 months or so. During that time, I went to Papa John’s in Rancho Santa Margarita again. It looked like much of the staff had changed during my absence and their handwashing practices improved greatly.

as i’m writing this review i’m sitting outside the papa john’s el toro location. this location is so poorly ran and not only are the workers to blame also the franchisee. The workers at this location are so unaware of their surroundings and it doesn’t help that when you call to make an order your call is sent to a call center in the philippines. Elizabeth was bright enough to tell me this morning at 10:40am she was swamped with pizza orders and that she had accidentally cancelled my order after going to pick up my order.

i called to place an order of 6 large pizzas. Call center picked up my phone call and they said they couldn’t place my order. They transfered me to the store, answered, then hung up on me. I called back and call center picked up the phone and transfer me again to the location of el toro road. 10 minutes on the line and no one ever answered. I ended up calling dominoes for my carry out tonight. Terrible customer service.

Forget ordering by phone. Horrible experience with their central phone ordering. You get into a phone loop that you cannot get out of. You cannot dial direct to the store. You can’t check on an order, you cannot talk to a manager if you hit that option. I like their pizza but the corporate management needs to fix their phone service.
