Wow, as a native tri-state guy from N. Jersey, and frequenter of Joe's in NYC, Sam's is AMAZING! Felt like I was home. The pie was perfect, the garlic knots were exceptional, and the service was first rate. Run, don't walk to Sam's if you're in north Texas, anywhere near DFW. read more

I am so disappointed in Sams Pizza and Pasta, I have eaten there many times, and the last 2 times have just been a disaster. None of the family are working, they may have sold the business. The last time I came in for lunch and ordered the pizza was just burnt up, i showed it to the counter worker, she said so sorry and offered to make another, i just didn't have the time, Yesterday I ordered a pizza and some pasta, to go, i should have opened the bags, the pizza was like a pre heated day old pizza, not eatable, the pasta was also premade, the sauce was hard and dry on top. Such a bad place today, not recommending this place, likely will close soon. read more

Really great service and family ambience here. Locally owned and a fixture of the community for years! To make this place more awesome is the delicious Italian cuisine they serve here. The pizza to me and my daughter was out of this world delicious! My wife's chicken parmigiana was over the top greatness. We even got a mixed bread Bradley that had some delicious garlic bread in it. I could tell this is the place to be on a Saturday during lunch because I saw a lot of families here hanging out and enjoying their meals. We were just visiting the area and I'm really glad we stopped by. While you are there after the meal I suggest you check out their Main Street. It's a pretty nice spot for a relaxing waking after your big meal. Highly recommended! read more

The setting reminds me of a NY pizzeria where you can grab a slice and listen to mob stories. The service was good and inviting. Now the food which is supposed to be the star of the show failed in my opinion. It just lacked flavor across the bold. From the slice to the calzones, flavorless read more

The pizza was great, if you love thin and crispy crusts then this is the place for you! I personally loved the old fashioned, small town vibe this place gave off. The restaurant was clean and the service was fast. read more

Sam's Pizza & Pasta - Medium Pepperoni Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Cedar Hill, Texas

A fast-casual style concept with counter ordering and food brought out to your table. Drink stations are serve yourself and a complimentary bread basket is brought out before your meal is served. My buddy and I shared both a pizza and a chicken parmesan dinner plate. The meat lovers pizza served thin crust style was a bit too crispy and had an unusual ingredient (could not figure out what it was, but it was off-putting) in their rich sauce. The chicken parmesan was very thinly pounded and served with spaghetti. It was a serviceable meal, but nothing I'd be rushing back to try again. read more

The pizza was not as good as I remembered from years ago at several parties. Perhaps it was because I've always had it fully prepared pizza versus like today by the slice with added toppings when it seemed extra salty and not fully cooked. read more

Sam's Pizza & Pasta - Pizza by the slice. - Pizza Near Me - Cedar Hill, Texas

Had been craving cheese pizza for a few weeks. I was in cedar hill and wanted pizza that wasn't a chain restaurant. Someone told me about Sam's and I was not disappointed. I ordered a slice of cheese pizza and an order of Chicken Marsala. The pizza was perfectly thin like I like my pizza. The chicken Marsala had so much flavor and came with a side of spaghetti ( I cleared my plate ). Very cozy and homestyle experience inside. Sam's was good, definitely will go back because I returned the next day and it was still 10/10. Also the staff is very friendly and helpful when ordering. read more

This used to be one of my favorite pizza spots! I'll admit. It's been a little while since I've been. They've extended the dining area so it's pretty roomy now. I've been maybe once or twice since the expansion. Same people, same atmosphere. I like the old pizzeria feel. Service here has always been order and go which is fine by me. Nothing rude, just get your food and go :) We ordered pepperoni pizza. I'm not sure but it seems as though they've changed something. It didn't look or taste like it used to. It was still good but they've definitely changed the pizza. I'm not a big fan of it. Maybe I need to come back and get another pie to be sure. I will say this, the pizza seemed like it was stuffed in the wrong box and it was cut really funky. Little sloppy. My husband thought it was pretty shady. I'll try it again next time. read more

Sam's Pizza & Pasta - Pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Cedar Hill, Texas

Usually I take pictures for my review but, we only had a medium pie with x-cheese, pepperoni, onion and sausage and there are plenty of pizza pictures (and they are accurate). So let's talk about the pie, the crust is nicely done with a great cook. It's light with a slight chew. Compared to NYC pizzas I have had, it's close! Topping were fresh and evenly proportioned. As NYC pizzas goes, I would say the crust could be a bit thicker (it's the fold. if you know, you know) the flour just toasting the underside of the pie and those little pools of oil from the pepperoni. Hit that with the dried oregano and bada bing Your in NYC. The NYC theme is through the place and it does have that NY feel. The service was great and the guys working the counter are very helpful. There are a lot of other items on the menu and I look forward to trying something else. Enjoy read more

Placed an online order for pick-up, and the family thought the pizza was really good. Ordered sausage, and added black olive and mushroom on one half. Lots of those toppings were added (though it didn't really cover half...but wasn't a biggie). Crust was good, good amount of cheese. Also added one salad which was also pretty good. Overall a good experience and we would order again. They supplied us with paper plates for our group when we asked, and the staff was friendly. read more

a great reasonably priced neighborhood restaurant. The family and staff always courteous and food excellent . quick service as well . take a group : they have plenty of room . read more

Second time here but I decided to take out instead of dine out in . I ordered a small pepperoni with Italian sausage . Nice size small , thin crust with the right amount of grease. On my first occasion, we saw so many people coming In for the pizza that it inspired me to try on my next visit here. Quickly made so there was no wait on arrival after calling ahead. Very tasty pizza! This place seems to never miss! read more

Great food The people were very friendly and helpful since it was our first time. We would for sure come back. read more

I love coming back to Sam's Pizza and Pasta. My brother and I usually come once a week to order their pizza! Service is also great and friendly. This place is cute and inviting. read more

I had the opportunity to go to Sam's Pizza in Cedar Hill Texas. The week of spring break March 2026. I ordered linguine with white clam sauce. I couldn't tell you how delicious it was. One of the best and I'm from Washington Heights in manhattan. Also the people that I was with enjoyed their dishes as well. The food is fantastic and the pizza is phenomenal. The customer service supreme. You will enjoy the owner. A true New Yorker!! read more

Love Sam's! I prefer to dine in, but it's also our go-to for take out pizza. The meat lover's is excellent.

Got take out. The pizza was pretty big but they don't cut it for you. I am sure if you ask they can! The pizza is NY style for sure - big floppy pieces not crispy! The Stromboli was packed with meat which was great. We got marinara sauce on the side which was yummy and the sauce on the pizza was light so would recommend getting extra on the side if you like it saucy. read more

We love Sam's! Had a large party and had no problem getting a table for 9, and even though order is at counter they brought our food out to us, took care of us, adults and kids all loved their food, and ambiance allowed us to have a great family meal. We have always had great service and wonderful food at Sam's. Highly recommend them for a trouble free experience with everyone leaving happy (with leftovers!) read more

This review covers two visits, both regarding online orders. Food: The pizza is good. Your fairly standard New York style pizza. I had an entire supreme pie and two slices of sausage previously. Pasta dishes are decent but nothing mind blowing. I haven't had a chance to try their sandwiches (for a reason). Service: Fairly typical service. Nothing to write home about. I will say both online orders I've made, they've gotten something wrong. First time, they got my pasta dish wrong but given the distance (Desoto - Cedar Hill), my fiancé and I just ate it. Second time, I ordered a chicken parm sub and got a chicken parm pasta. Still good but not what I ordered. Ambiance: The interior of the place is very homey and has that pizzeria-esque feel. The place sits right in Cedar Hill historic area (?) which is a nice slow pace area. Overall, this place isn't bad but it could be better. There are other family owned pizza/pasta places that do taste better. Joe's in Arlington off Matlock is 5/5 for me so there's no bias against this type of food or place of business. There's just better! Will update this review in the future. read more

I love this place. The service is always so great, and the food is always so good. It's my favorite place to take my kid or to just go by myself and enjoy my own company. It's tucked off and cozy. You can tell its family owned and just feels like a happy place. Great food, great prices, you can't beat it! read more

Its my first time to this pizza establishment, and I am excited to return. I've been looking for a delicious spot near my home, and I've found it. Food is great and staff very friendly. I was a little confused when entering as one orders and sits without the initial payment, but I was rapidly greeted and invited to take my time and have a drink while I decided. I had the eggplant parmesan sandwich and it was amazing. I also had the calamari as an appetizer. Although the slices were a tad small, the flavor on was on point. I highly recommend this place. I also enjoyed the classic local pizzeria feel. It's very authentic and feels like home. read more

Great place. Service has always been amazing. Pizza and pasta at its finest. Must try.

I would probably not come here as much but thats only because of 3 thing for some reason the food or pizza is sweet and i don't like it like that. Number 2 i did not like spaghetti and meat sauce but i think that i would like regular spaghetti more but the inside was cool i liked all the baseball decor they were super fast delivering i would wish many other restaurants if they had service like this read more

Found this place on yelp and wanted to come try it because at had the most reviews in the area by far. Place has been opens for many years and had a true New York style vibe to it which I liked and it was family owned and operated. Ordered whatever the cashier recommended to me. Pizza was good! But nothing out of this world & a little to greasy. I also tried the fettuccine Alfredo pasta and that wasn't good at all. However the staff was nice to us, and the pizza which was the main reason we came for was good! Towards the end a lady to seemed to be the owner said that all her desserts are homemade. They were also good but nothing out of this world. All together I was happy with Sam's pizzeria and would definitely come back if I was back in this area, I'm giving the food a 3/5 but finishing with a well deserved 4/5 because of the story on this place. Cheers, read more

Came for the first time after seeing the reviews, Was absolutely disappointed! Ordered a shrimp scampi that had 4 pieces of shrimp, the pasta tasted so bland they might as well hand me the condiments. My wife had a Alfredo pasta and it was no better No taste and the chicken seemed frozen out of a bag. read more

The service was top notch every one we encountered was very pleasant and professional. The food especially the sausage and egg sub was great. Loved the ambiance of the restaurant very vintage with many historical photos all over. read more

Great place to go to for real Italian food. Pizza is definitely the same as you would get in NY....Probably because the family that owns Sam's is originally from the Bronx.They are ABSOLUTELY CUSTOMER ORIENTED...Someone wrote in a review that the place has been in Cedar Hill for 15 years. Actually these folks have been there more than 25 years! I love going there, and I don't mind making the trip from BEDFORD. read more

I visited this establishment after hearing from a friend that their food was amazing. I called the store and will say the gentleman was very friendly and gave great recommendations. I ordered the medium everything pizza which was more like a supreme and a slice of stuffed pepperoni. I was told my order would be ready in 10-15min. I then proceeded to drive 15 min and picked my order up. Had to wait on the stuffed pepperoni and the line was long. Lots of people eating inside and picking up orders. So I would assume the pizza was good. Here goes I took my first bite of the stuffed pepperoni and it was extremely greasy. However the crust was amazing and full of flavor. The medium pizza with all the toppings was nice but not worth the $30 tab I paid. The flavor was good but really pricey for me to not be super happy with my experience. Thank you for the opportunity but not sure if I would return. read more

Excellent food. Definitely give them a try, you won't be disappointed, especially if you love NY style pizza !

I only had a slice of the stuffed pizza it was ok not enough cheese for the amount of meat.

I think this past year we've been smashing some Sam's pizzas & pasta's which is a good thing we love to support local. One week we ate and order 4 times in one week hahahaha. I've been trying out their pastas and I'm super impressed. My wife got me into it and I agree with her they don't shy from the ingredients they don't shy from portions either. The pizzas on the other hand are amazing NY style with one criticism, the toppings, it can be sparse at times? I've had it at times where it's just right. So for example here we've ordered a large pepperoni and I barely could get 2 pepperonis on a single slice yeah it's pretty bad but not too bad that it'll keep me away, because the pizzas are amazingly simple yet astonishingly tasty to me. Simple, yet satisfying! Plus very good pizza to preheat on the griddle or frying pan later lol Thanks to this Family Restaurant, all who work and support this establishment thanks. read more

Amazing first-time experience! We brought the whole basketball team, and from start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The complimentary bread was a delightful surprise--fresh, warm, and absolutely delicious. Each of us ordered something different, and every dish was mouthwatering. My 8-year-old devoured his entire bowl of spaghetti and even asked for more! We dined on a busy Friday night and were so impressed that we're coming back on Sunday to explore more of the menu before heading home. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for fantastic food and great service! read more
