Classic old school Italian gem, from pizza to pasta etc, come casual, chill and enjoy the history. Tell Lou, BIG Steve from sunny Sheepshead Bay sent you.

Best pizza in NYC!!! I love the owner, he is an old school Brooklyn classic and the place feels like stepping into a time capsule of the past.

Pizza is incredible the rest of the food is slightly above average the wait time for food (besides pizza) is longer than average . Cool vibe inside the owner Louie is a hoot I love going here . It's a 4.6 outta 5 my overall opinion .

Lou is awesome! Sam's Pizza: Elevating the Slice Game Having sampled both Newpark Pizza and Sam's, it's evident that Sam's Pizza raises the bar in the realm of savory satisfaction. While Newpark Pizza boasts its own merit with great flavors and quality ingredients, Sam's transcends expectations, delivering an unparalleled pizza experience. Firstly, let's talk crust. Sam's crust achieves the elusive balance between crispiness and chewiness, providing the perfect foundation for each bite. It's sturdy yet airy, with just the right amount of char to add depth to every slice. Next up, the sauce. Sam's has mastered the art of sauce distribution, ensuring that every inch of the pizza is kissed with tangy, robust tomato goodness. It's not too sweet, not too acidic - just pure pizza perfection. In conclusion, while Newpark Pizza may hold a special place in many pizza lovers' hearts, Sam's Pizza reigns supreme in the realm of deliciousness. With its impeccable crust, mouthwatering sauce, generous cheese, and top-notch toppings, Sam's has undoubtedly earned its place as the pinnacle of pizza perfection.

Very old school Italian place with classic red sauce dishes such as meatballs, chicken parm and ziti. Went here for a bday and had to sit in a tight booth even though there was an empty table but the guy who took our order was very friendly. Ordered the plain pizza, chicken parm, meatballs with ravioli, and baked ziti. Chicken was very tender and cooked perfectly, enough to feed two. Baked ziti and ravioli were also a hit. The pizza was the crowd favorite, comes out steaming hot and has a good crust. Cash only!

Went for dinner at Sam's on Tuesday evening. A place where you can expect quality standards and an old-school environment. Quality: Sam's is one of the oldest Italian restaurants in Brooklyn, and they keep that traditional mentality. All the cocktails on the menu are standards, and the Martini excellent. We ordered a Pizza, half cheese, half sausage and mushroom. It has a coal fire style, sauce with a little sweetness, and a good texture balance. It belongs in the upper tier of pizzas, but be aware they only do full pies. We ended our meal with a slice of Cheese Cake, very good as well. Quantity: Large and filling food, stiff drinks. Value: Cash only and some prices missing from the menus. $14 for a Martini. $27 for a Pizza. $5 for the Cheese Cake. Ambiance: Sam's is a classic pizza spot and Italian restaurant located in Cobble Hill. It is the basement floor, so you enter down a few steps. The inside set-up seems more like an event hall than a restaurant. Two massive areas, with the tables and booths squished against the walls. A bar sits towards the center. Italian sculptures, art, and maps can be found along the walls. It has the scent of ingrained cigarette smoke as well as settled wood, for me it caused childhood basement smells to flood back. Traditional pop played softly in the background. Crowd: A couple of regulars and two small families. Service: Old-school service from a guy who treats everyone like family. Expect playful jokes and fake frustration during your interactions. Parking: Some parking on nearby streets.

I love Sam's. It's super classic old school Italian. The place hasn't been redone since it opened. I love it. There is even an old phone booth in there. It's so warm, cozy and charming. It's one person manning the house, he's done this all his life so he will just turn you away if it's too late or if he's too tired and has too many tables even though the place isn't filled. This is a homey restaraunt and you feel like you are treated like family when you dine here. It's just a classic place and I love it. The food is good portions and affordable. Really tasty. Their pizza is my favorite but of course the day we come they didn't have pizza! Something to have to do with the dough machines. That was okay though. We got meatballs, ravioli, a side of meatballs, chicken parm and spaghetti and veal cutlet and escarole, two bottles of wine and two pieces of cheesecake. A lot of food for 4 people but I was hungry! We got there at 6:30 on a Saturday and didn't leave until 9:30. It reminded me of having dinner in Europe where the waiters don't care and you can sit there all night. It was so nice to relax and eat and catch up. The chicken and veal is pounded very thin. Everyone loved their food. I really liked the meatballs, super light and not heavy at all and great flavor. The sauce is very sweet and vibrant. The pasta is cooked perfectly Al dente. The ravioli were big and delicious. Loved the bottle Chianti we got. The cheesecake here is my favorite, it's real Italian ricotta cheesecake. Def try it. All this food under 200 with tax and tip. They give you complimentary bread for the table and plenty of it. The French fries were also very good, more like potato wedges but they really hit the spot. We moved from Brooklyn and the one place I miss is this place. So glad we were able to visit and eat here. This is my favorite pizza place in Brooklyn so I hope next time we visit they have pizza. But no matter what they have it's all delicious!
