I don't know if Roma is as good as it was 10 years ago. But it's got to better in Prairieville than Papa John's.



Not sure why you were downvoted - Roma was legit. Was thinking about them a couple days ago. Are they still open?

So I lose this battle every 4-5 years. Drove to the Prairieville location today. Walk in. Young kid waiting on me. Has a mask on. Me too. My wife wanted to try the Shaqaroni pizza. Kid ask me “Delivery or take out?” Well, seeing I’m already here, I don’t think I will be getting it delivered now there Scooter. Order the Shaqaroni. Response—We don’t have those. What? Wife saw the commercial yesterday. That’s what started this shite show in the first place. Apparently this promotion ended yesterday. Ok fine. At this point the manager takes over for the young kid and explains he is ecstatic the promotion ended. It took too long to make the pizza and it’s nothing but a regular pepperoni. Place the adjusted order of 2 large thin crust. One pepperoni and one meat lovers. Also an order of cheesy breadsticks. Tab $52!!! Took the breadsticks off the order. Oh yeah, the whole time the manager was taking our order, he had no mask on. Done.


I agree with you that Papa Johns sucks but you seem like a very difficult person to please and you probably run into issues like these at a lot of places you patronize.

I remember Roma very well from when we lived down there. It was damn good and the owner was super nice.

They moved and Omar left.

Omar wasn't the owner, pretty sure it is owned by the same group who owns Albasha.

Think he said he was retiring. Which is sort of why he moved here from NYC. He always said he saw an opening to bring people good pizza.

Maybe him and the Albasha owner were friends from back in Iraq or something and he moved here to settle with that group. He would talk about it every now and then, but the story changed and was vague.

By this post I can tell you are over 50 years old and that you have never heard of ordering from the specials/coupons. Typical boomer mistake

Aside from the pizza tasting like cardboard crap I have no issues with them. The best reason not to even attempt to order.

Not following this part.... Why does it take too long to make a regular pepperoni pizza ?

You think $32 for two chain pizzas and breadsticks is a good deal? Yall both sound like rubes.


It's a better deal than $52

As far as the mask, they are useless.

Papa John's is terrible chain pizza, a smidgen higher than Pizza Hut. If you want decent chain pizza, try Domino's next time.
You have terrible taste.

Wait. You had your mask on but the manager didnt't but your mask works right? If your mask works why does he need one?

Thincrust tombstone isnt bad when you just want a quick pizza. I add a little salt before cooking to enhance the flavor. Actually not too bad.

I like good pizza as much as the next guy. Jetts, Blue Naples, Elizabeth's, Route 66, Mellow Mushroom, Sticks and Stones.. but chain store pizza like Dominos and Papa Johns just isnt very good to me. Jetts is a chain, but it's good Detroit style pizza. Family wanted Jetts last night so I grabbed one. Didnt have any though. Im on my 3 day health kick..
