Sam's Italian Restaurant has been serving customers since 1973 and is known for its stromboli and samoritos. The restaurant offers a 25% discount on Mondays, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious diners. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the service is satisfactory.
The samoritos, which are chunks of fried dough with a cup of red sauce, come highly recommended. They are seasoned with more than just salt and garlic powder, making them mildly addictive. The red sauce is also seasoned, and the antipasto salad is acceptable, although there is some criticism about the presence of pepperoni in it.
The pizza is described as having a light charring and puffiness on the edges, with copious and decent quality pepperoni. However, it is not sliced well, and the cheese-to-crust bonding could be improved. Despite these issues, the pizza has a loyal following.
The antipasto salad needs some work, as the meats need additional slicing to get a proper bite size, and the tongs provided are not up to the task of salad distribution. However, the salad dressing is seasoned, which is a plus.
The atmosphere is cozy, but the booths are a bit cramped. The restaurant has not been updated since it opened, giving it a vintage feel.
Overall, Sam's Italian Restaurant is a long-standing establishment that serves satisfactory food, particularly the stromboli, samoritos, and pizza subs. The restaurant could improve its pizza slicing and antipasto salad, but the friendly service and cozy atmosphere make it a decent dining option.
