Papa's
Our restaurant is home to Indiana's best pizza and one of the places that has helped make Culver famous. At Papa's we are more than a pizza place; We are a family owned and operated restaurant that is also known for our hand cut steaks, thick chops, our fall-off-the-bone tender ribs, succulent fresh seafood and amazing pasta dishes.

We are also home to a quality selection of premium vodkas, an extensive wine list that will suit all tastes and 30 draft beers that focus on regional craft breweries. Come in and enjoy the comfortable atmosphere in either our bar or dining room. At Papa's, you're part of the family!

My father, Jim McCormack, started Papa's in 1976 with a dream of creating a place where customers were friends, families could call their own, and generations would always remember their great times at a Culver institution, Papa's. My mother Marion, and the McCormack kids, thought he was nuts. Jim was a graphic designer.
At Papa's, we pride ourselves on offering a wide variety of food and spirits, using only the highest quality ingredients. From our award winning pizza, hand-cut steaks, and fresh seafood, to our extensive selection of fine wines, 30 draft beers, and large cocktail selection; we strive to offer the customers of our restaurant the very best dining experience possible.

Very good pizza and salad with the house dressing;but, it is not affordable. 4 adults cost $120. We did order 1 steak, but no alcohol or even sodas.

This place was the only place open in Culver today (July 5th). Gracie was our server and she was AWESOME AND PHENOMENAL. They were very very busy and she and the staff did the best they possibly could. We live in Florida now, but would definitely come back. Their pizza and nachos are top notch. Highly recommend!!! Thank you Gracie!!!💜

Food was excellent. Had prime rib and it was such a big steak, i had to take half home. Cooked perfect. Veggies perfect. Even the salad was good. They arent stingy on salad dressing like most restraunts.

The filled mignon was top notch. Perfect medium rare; our party of 7 was completely amazed. Also patience was exercised with us extremely well, as 2 of the 7 were toddler twins. WAY better than the Harbour House in Bass Lake!!! Best steak dinner around period.

Worst dinner I have had in long time. I asked the waitress to have them cook my steak longer was still rare. All they did is put my plate in the microwave for 2 minutes and steak was still raw. She didn't offer new meal or a discount. 40$ for a microwaved raw steak. Will never return poor service and the cook needs a teaching lesson on how to cook a proper steak.

Poor service. My boyfriend waited 10 minutes for a refill on his pop. The waitress only checked on us 3 times within an hour and they were NOT busy. We waited for about 30 to 45 minutes for the food. The only good thing was that the spaghetti tasted like it was made fresh. The food is definitely not worth the cost of it. Definitely recommend Fridas over them!

Love this place especially the music memorabilia (with me and my husband being music nuts). The food is always on point. Never had a bad meal here. Even the high prices don't keep me away. Food to not miss is the pizza, calzones or anything on the specials... I've been told before that "the owner is from Chicago so his pizza must be great!" This is not Chicago style pizza which is classified as one of two styles.... the thin, tavern style, square cut (which I grew up on) OR deep dish. Papa's is a great Papa's style pizza.

I really enjoyed the pizza (papa's special) especially coming from Culver Wings. Unfortunately I was on foot and walking my pizza home for my roomate and it was confiscated... the lady seemed really unhappy about it too... My bad I wanted to try something better but I get it NO outside food. Anyway it was delicious come in and enjoy a great pizza you won't be dissapointed...
