Family owned, same location for years. Food is always made to order, you can see them prepare your order with an open kitchen. Great friendly atmosphere, old world Italian decor. Never had a bad meal. Our women's Poly Towne Club went there monthly for years before we disbanded. We even had our last meeting there. They've struggled since the pandemic and they've complied with all the requirements for safety. This place has always been clean even the restrooms. Very family oriented with even a pinball machine and crayons and place mats with activities for children. My favorite place for the best

I only order pizza here, and the Hawaiian pizza is the best I have ever had. Sauce to the edge, lots of toppings and lots of cheese. More toppings than any of the chain pizza shops.

Want to try it again, maybe. Had it delivered and it had zero flavor and was ice cold. The garlic bread is pretty much the worst we've ever had. Going to have to try it again there. Threw almost all if it away

Love it!!! Just as wonderful and tasty as I remember it!! My only problem was that I didn't get the bigger size pie!! I'm a Barberton transplant in Akron and this little gem is always on my mind when I make it back home. Keep up the great work Peppe and Luigi!

Asked my father in law where I could get my wife and I some good wings. This is is the place he suggested. I assumed he was mad at us for some reason. Bland, dry and overcooked wings, salad very basic and "Large" pizza would be a medium at 95% of any other pizza place. Thought I chipped my tooth on a piece of the pizza. Pulled whatever it was out and it looked like crumbles of burnt food cooked over and over. Oven crud or unclean pans I assume. For the price I should have just went with my gut and got the usual GIoninos.

Honestly, the prices weren't bad. Had the chicken cacciatore. The food was by no means horrible, but it was very bland. The sauce was ragu lacking any seasoning. The grilled chicken wasn't bad, but not a trace of garlic or spice in the Entire dish. Even the garlic bread barely had a garlic taste.
Needless to say, I don't think I'll be coming back. The service was nice and friendly, but the food was just too bland.

Been eating Peppe & Luigi's for 35 years. Still our favorite. Super greasy in a good way. Probably not how everyone likes it but it's a once a week staple in our house.

It was my first time eating here not long ago, my boyfriend and I ordered pasta meals mine chicken Alfredo and his was chicken parm, we also ordered two salads and some "bread sticks". The breadstick were literally not even breadsticks, they were just hard twisted up pizza dough. They were very over cooked and had no flavor at all. The only flavor you got from it was from the garlic butter sauce to dip them in. The chicken Alfredo was ok...the chicken was not seasoned just plan grilled. The chicken parm sauce was flavorless and watery. The salad however was very good. The service was

To go order = 8 pc mixed chicken w 12 JoJos. Chicken tasted good but breading was not very evident.. thin layer. Pieces were pretty small, she even threw in an extra piece since 3 were tiny. Potato not overly seasoned but fine w/ me. Food was hot n ready fast but then again nobody was in the restaurant.
Now for price. $15 was real steep for the amount of chicken tho the JoJo portion was decent.
U know who's got surprisingly tasty chicken.. Giant Eagle prepared foods! Sorry Peppy Luego.

I went there for lunch and had to take out the woman at the cash register was very polite and very friendly it's a nice homie type of Diner that gives you the feel that you can definitely bring your family there and feel welcome. I got their wings which were Barbecue & Mild and they both were really good the prices aren't too expensive and they have really good business hours I recommend if you want pizza or pasta or wings and you're in this area this place is definitely a place to try out.

A local Pizzeria handtossed pizza. The sauce is so snooth and delicious and who doesnt like mozzarella cheese not a big fan of blended with provolone. . Ordered a side salad with house dressing. They offer traditional summit county sides. Jo Jos..chicken dinners,. Impressed with the pizza. Sometimes you dont want thick crust. Next time i would be interested in checking out pasta.

For thick crust advocates, beware.
The crust here is fairly thin, not pan or "Chicago style."
If you're most interested in what's on top, the sauce and toppings are all first rate. And the crust is a fine representation of the thin crust genre.
We got take out, so I just have vague impressions of the dining room, which simply silently said "pizza joint that has been around for a while."
To me they all seem to have a similar ambiance....booths that have seen a few too many derrières, charmingly eclectic decor, etc., but somehow cozy and welcoming despite a few possible

In our continuing search for the best pizza in our new area we tried this place today. We did not call ahead but placed our order and waited. The place itself needs a serious revamp. It smelled weird and was sort of dark and dingy. We crossed our fingers and hoped the pizza wouldn't reflect the atmosphere. We ordered 2 jumbo pepperoni, and a salad with Italian dressing. Our order took about 15 mintues, awesome, since the last place we went took 50 mintues for 2 large pizzas. Once we got home and got to eating we were blown away by how delicious the pizza was. It was cooked perfectly

As a kid we would go to the Pepe and Luigi's In Green 30 years ago. I remember loving the pizza and the ice cream we got there afterwards. That Pepe and Luigi's closed years back. I knew that there was another restaurant with the same name in Barberton for several years now, but wasn't sure if it were the same as the place I remember as a child. We finally went there and I must say, we were not disappointed! The pizza was the same as I remember. My wife and I shared a large (medium) pizza. The pizza has fairly thin crust and great sauce and toppings. My dad got the fried chicken
