I had the privilege of having a very nice young lady by the name of Zey help me this evening, pleasant and very helpful. There, award-winning fried dough is award-winning. crusty on the outside nice and warm and fluffy inside. There pizza is delicious also. I did order Korean teriyaki chicken wing but I didn't have the opportunity to eat them yet. Thank you guys for the sample, absolutely delicious.

When I was a child, I always would say "Papa! Papa! Will you make a pizza for us?" And my Papa would smirk and say, "Oh no no, I am not a pizza papa." Every day he would boil chicken and we would eat it, and we would have to smile and say, "Thank you Papa." It took me years to eat a real pizza. It was a beautiful May day, when our friend Christopher graduated college. All he wanted as a gift was a well crafted, greasy slice of pizza. We called all across Boston and the answers we got were: "No!" "Try again later." "We're sold out idiot!" But one place said, "We got you." I remember my Papa saying, "I am not a Pizza Daddy." But I realized, my cruel father was not what I needed. I needed a Big Daddy. And goddamn did I get one. Fried Pickles A Free fried dough A 4 pizzas A

I love the food at big daddy pizza. The steak and cheese sub is delicious this time we had the steak and cheese egg rolls (with pepper, mushroom and onion ) and the fried dough desert. They are really friendly and perfect service from Zeynab

Great pizza joint located on Western Ave in between the Harvard Athletic Fields / Businnes School, Speedway, and the River. Located just off the 86 bus line - it is worth a pit stop. Pizza slices are large but the crispy crust does just the right job keeping the topping on top. Steak and chive is a nice mix and the Everything should be tried by everyone. You can’t go wrong tho with the Taco pizza - a personal favorite of the owners. Great service, great pizza and plenty of seating. Interior is often adorned with decorations from the most recent holiday, and everything is made with love year-round. Hoping to see more foot traffic making its way inside! Big Daddy's pizza will have you saying "Mama Mia!" - Check it out!

I have lived in Cambridge and Allston for 2 years. I have tried all the pizza places but this is the first time I have tried this place. It is very clean, the big slize is very tasty, they have good products and the employees are very friendly. I hope they have branches in every location.
