    Heard rave reviews so had to come check it out for myself! It's not obvious from the street where this place is but just trust that you are walking in to the right spot! Follow your nose :) I missed the sign but there is a small one outside. The owner, Sam is very nice and friendly. It's a small space inside but several tables. I imagine seating can be challenging during peak times. We went on a Wednesday evening and no issues with parking or seating. The meatballs are the best! 10/10 for me! I love the FLAVOR! You get 3 meatballs per order. They are nice size and I think the price is fair. The sauce is very good as well. I would definitely come back for these! I tried their most popular pizza the Jefe. It was just ok to me. To be fair, I don't like pepperonis but I picked them off as the person I went with loves pepperonis. I couldn't taste much of the sausage. The jalepeno ricotta sounds amazing but I couldn't really taste any jalepenos or spice to it. I did appreciate the pizza dough was airy and crisp and not chewy and "doughy". I wouldn't order this again but would like to try another pizza ; most likely a build my own. As far as drinks, there is a cooler with canned and bottled water. There is beer and wine available as well. There is free tap water.

    High Plains Drifter Pizza

    High Plains Drifter pizza at Sam's Square Pizza is an award winning and I know why. First, the crust is a perfect crunch on the edges and a sponge dough in the center. The cheese blend pulls as you grab a slice. Who doesn't like a lot of cheese! The pesto and smoky maple syrup take it to the next level. Stop by and say hi to the owner. You won't regret it.

    Went to Sam's Square Pie in Fountain Square for dinner with a friend and the food was absolutely incredible!! Parking is terrible to figure out, but that's FS for you. This pizza...holy crap. Best pizza in Indy! The crust was crunchy, soft and bounced back. Truly can tell by taste, looks and texture that's it's made in house. If you haven't been here yet--you're missing out.

    Sticky Icky
    Andrea G.

    This is a small place with a ton of cool art inside. There is a parking lot in the back of the bldg. We were greeted by the owner, Sam, and he took our order. We got the Sticky Icky. The pizza was amazing. A small was very filling for two people. Would recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

    From the outside, it's an unassuming spot on 10th street but it's totally worth a stop! The staff was so friendly and the owner was so warm and genuinely welcoming to everyone who came in. It seemed like there were a lot of first-timers in and I really appreciated him telling us where to order, etc. right away. We ordered garlic knots with vodka sauce and a "just kissed my baby" pizza. Each came out pretty quickly and both were incredible!! We could've eaten that vodka sauce with a spoon. Will definitely recommend and be back again! Lots of parking available in a lot behind the building and on the street off 10th.

    Carryout - perfection

    It's all about the chewy and cheesy crust from Sam's Square Pie. It truly sets it apart from the pack. Not to mention the beautiful box design For Christmas this year, I gifted my husband a "diy weekly pizza pass" and we kicked things off with Sam's. The pie made its way home still hot and we loved the sweet salty dough, paired with the chewy cheese, honey glaze combination. It packed a punch and we'll definitely be coming back for more. They offer a small dine in space but we opted for carryout. It was faster than I expected for a deep dish style pizza. Highly recommend!

    Greeted by the owner when we walked in. That man doesn't know a stranger such a nice guy. Hugged me and thanked me for coming in. It's order at the counter service. We order two pizzas and garlic knots two canned sodas. The food was fresh delicious. If you want water it's free in a water cooler by the register. Also bottle water for purchase. Just go the vibes were good and buying local is always better . Keep in mind it's not Pizza Hut so the pizzas you get from those places aren't available here.

    Sticky Icky
    Sydney T.

    10/10 -- easily one of the best pizzas I've had in Indiana, hands down! We ordered the El Jefe and the Sticky Icky and both were absolutely incredible. The ricotta on the El Jefe truly takes it to the next level and seals the deal. I'm already looking forward to going back to try more of their menu. If you've been debating it -- just get the pizza. It's more than worth it. The service was impeccable and the vibes were fantastic from start to finish!

    First time here. I've seen a lot about this place and heard that it was one of the best pizza places in town. And it lived up to its billing. We started off with the garlic knots. They were really soft a great garlic flavor on them and had some cheese to dip them in. They were very hot and were really excellent. Not too heavy but still really good. Also, we had the El jefe pizza with sausage, three kinds of pepperoni, hot honey and ricotta cheese. It was incredible great cheesy crispy crust nice thick Detroit style crust. And the toppings were excellent with the sauce on top and then topped with a dollop of ricotta cheese. The honey gave it a really nice sweet flavor and some a little hot aftertaste. The pepperoni was great sausage was great overall it was one of the best pizzas I have had in town. We got drinks out of the refrigerator, canned and bottled. But they also have a bar, but we just chose to do cokes. The atmosphere is really cool lots of Indianapolis area memorabilia kinds of things and references. A really cool space very welcoming friendly. Small seating area, maybe six or eight tables. But plenty of space for us. The guy that helped us to get our order in talk to us through the entire menu and was very friendly welcome rest in and told us to have a nice week when we left. Highly recommend.

    My husband and I with the owner. You can see the restaurant in the picture. We ate the food too fast to take a picture.

    We are in town for the Indy 500 and decided to try this local eatery. The pizza was beyond delicious! We ordered the El Jefe and my husband reports it is the best pizza he's ever eaten in his life. I don't disagree. The restaurant has an eclectic vibe and the owners are fabulous people. They're very welcoming and happy to give us recommendations on what to order. The whole place had an eclectic chill vibe with 80's music pumping at the perfect volume to enjoy and also be able to have a conversation with the people around you. We met locals and enjoyed the game on the TV in front of us at the bar. The restaurant probably seats 25 people with 7 to 8 tables and a bar that seats about eight people. They serve beer and wine spritzer's. I found them on Yelp and as always, Yelp did not disappoint!

    Good gluten free pizza is hard to come by, but Sam's Square Pie knocks it out of the park!! My expectations were exceeded with their GF Detroit style pizza and I cannot wait to order again! The crust, sauce, cheese, and toppings were perfection!

    Just Kissed My Baby Pizza
    Ariyanna M.

    First let me start off by saying that the owner is wonderful! I feel like the atmosphere of the place just makes you feel like you're in for a good time. As for the food itself, one of the best pizzas I've had by far. I loved the crispy edges, the jalapeño ricotta cheese gives it a nice touch as well. A lot of flavors going on. They also have beef pepperoni for those who don't eat pork, a very nice substitute. Absolutely will be coming back.

    Granny style
    Hannah W.

    Talk about the nicest people ever??!! Sam's square pie was delicious. We ordered granny style "vodka roni granny" and added pesto and burrata. We also got garlic knots and tiramisu.. which were delicious. This place has good local beers on draft and a fun vibe inside. The owner, Sam, explained the menu to us and guided us on our order. 10/10 no notes!! (We street parked for free right outside the restaurant)

    Loving Cup (drool)-I liked the art in the box, too!

    I am really interested to try the Sicilian style from here, as no other pizza spot in Indy has really made an effort to feature that particular style. Went to website to order but not seeing where I can specify which style pizza to order. Any help?

    If you have instagram send me a direct message. We only make a few due to the amount of pans and time spent on the Detroit style. The Sicilian is twice the dough and 12 slices feeds 6-7.

We ordered a half-and-half pizza with the Spicy Bee on one side and the Bazbeaux Special with pine nuts on the other. Everything was delicious. It's all made fresh to order, so it took a bit of time to come out, but that's exactly why it tasted so good: fresh ingredients, a crisp thin crust that stays sturdy under the toppings, and great flavor throughout. With many toppings to choose from and a good beer and wine selection, there's a ton to explore here, and it's very vegetarian-friendly, too. The service sealed the deal for us. The staff was extremely friendly and kind, and our waitress was the highlight. We ended up staying a little past closing and started to rush, but she reassured us to take our time and enjoy the meal instead of feeling hurried. That kind of genuine hospitality goes a long way.

Our pizza came out surprisingly fast, especially considering everything is made fresh. We ordered pepperoni, sausage, and red onion, and they absolutely loaded it with toppings. Crispy, blistered crust, gooey cheese, and enough pepperoni to make me stop counting after about bite three. It was honestly love at first bite. One tip: don't skip the restroom before you leave. I won't spoil it, but whoever decorated those walls and that door clearly had some fun. King Dough nails that balance between casual neighborhood pizza joint and destination-worthy meal.
