Sam's Pizza - Highland

We went in later on a Sunday with out of town visiting family. It was a hour before kitchen closing and the waitress gave us menus. Then about 3 minutes later she come back and says her manager closed the kitchen because of a emergency at home . So we gather up our things then the drunk sounding kitchen manager slurs out. Hey y 'all can order I 'll cook it up. Meanwhile the other drunk friends who are laughing aren 't helping. So we walked. Dude. OST his establishment probably $100 or so In orders on a slow Sunday. Will never go here again. Pizza previously was mediocre at best. Find some place else!

Over the years I've heard positive stuff about Sam's Pizza, from both locals and non-locals. I finally went there last year, and have been there a couple other times for their lunch buffet. As much as I hate to say it, their pizza does not impress me. I'll explain the pizza: it may seem like St. Louis-style but its not. It is not cracker-crust with provolone. Instead, it is like something you find in the frozen foods section in the supermarket (not DiGiornio, but like Totino's and Red Baron). I don't know the best way to explain the crust, but more like chewy/crunchy. Next time you're in there see for yourself. Take the cheese, sauce and the toppings off and you'll see what I mean. Its like the place doesn't even make their own crust. I respect places that have their own recipe. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe they do make their own crust, but I have yet to be convinced. On the other hand, some positives: the service was great, and the restaurant takes pride in the Highland community, as shown all over the place. The place has so much potential, I wish the pizza could live up to it. Apparently this place is hopping on the weekends with the drinking crowd of all ages.

Their pizza is fantastic. Best in town. Nice atmosphere. Family friendly place for all. You can drop by and have a drink at the bar. Super beer selection.

They have amazing chicken tenders (spicy garlic and hot are my families favorites), cheese sticks, and St. Louis style pizza. They also have a nice selection of draft beer.

10/10 literally the only pizza place I order from in town anymore! Great customer service and staff Food is amazing! They have a great bar and it's a great atmosphere
