I have to admit I’m conflicted in my rating while posting this. The pizza we just got tonight was delivered promptly (far ahead of the ETA at order) and a decent pizza; however, in HS in the late 90’s, we got Sam’s almost every Friday night, and I remember it being noticeably better. Tonight’s pizza was about a 3, but I gave it a 4 because I know it can be a lot better. I’m hoping this is just a “one off”, and not indicative of a major drop in quality.
If I order from Sam’s again soon, I’ll update my review accordingly.
Good Pizza but what's with the $5 delivery fee along with an added suggested tip of the driver? Who gets this ''delivery fee' $$$? Also a $1 'processing fee' along with general sales tax and all these extra 'taxes' basically doubled the cost of my actual order. Definitely feel like I've been nickel and dimed here which seems to be status quo these days for companies to do to us here in America.
I ordered my pizza over the phone @ 10:30; it arrived @ 11:40 and was PIPING HOT. The gentleman who took my order was VERY polite and friendly; he repeated both the order AND the address to ensure accuracy. The delivery driver was equally courteous and polite upon arrival.
The pizza itself was DELICIOUS; next time, I will order with extra cheese. Toppings (cheese, sausage, and pepperoni) were fresh and GENEROUS (see photo), crust was crisp, sauce was PERFECT. The cherry on the sundae is that they're OPEN LATE and deliver ANYWHERE in the city for a reasonable fee.
5/5 - I admit that there is another local restaurant that is my favorite for pizza, but I will DEFINITELY order again, especially late night.
