I grew up eating this pizza… I live in NC now and when I come home, I get it several times because nothing else compares. The taste, quality, and service has been the best I’ve experienced in the past 30 years. From NC to IL, there’s nothing like this pizza!!!

We walked in on a chilly night without realizing that they weren't offering any dine-in option... but they still seated us regardless and made an accommodation. Pizza was VERY good: thought the sauce was really good, and pizza not aggressively salty. Highly recommend!

Have been going here for 25 years, my mother and her family have been going here for more than 30+ years and I have never had a pizza anywhere in these united states (prices from $5 per pizza to $40 per pizza) that comes close to this authentic taste and love that goes into every pizza. You will never find better sauce ANYWHERE in Illinois, "chicago" pizza has nothing on OG Sam's Original sauce. RIP Sam, you created something beautiful and the community will forever be grateful for you and Josie! Everyone should try sams at least once before kicking the bucket. Anyone who doesnt like authentic pizza or good taste will give a 1 star review. They probably call Mcdonalds gourmet. YOU HAVE TO GET DOUBLE SAUCE!!

I recently placed an order for a pizza party, and I have to say that Josie went above and beyond to make this experience absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, she was incredibly helpful, attentive, and kind. Josie took the time to understand exactly what we needed and even made special arrangements to ensure everything was perfect for this important day. Her professionalism and genuine care truly reflect what exceptional customer service should be. Thank you so much, Josie—you made this celebration unforgettable!

If you're looking for a 100% AUTHENTIC ITALIAN restaurant, THIS IS IT. My husband took me here on Valentine's Day in 2023 and it was perfection! at the time, there was no dining in, but they let us which was so sweet for them to do. the atmosphere is calming with classical Italian music that is very soothing. Their PIZZA? oh my GOSH. PHENOMENAL! the sauce is sweet but full of flavor, the crust is thin but PERFECTLY fluffy, and the cheese is to die for. Everything about this place is perfect. and it's so clean in there and just gorgeous in the entire restaurant. I WILL DEFINITELY BE RETURNING. IF I CAN GET THIS PLACE TEN STARS I WOULD IN A HEARTBEAT. THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR SERVICE.
