Biography

Biography: 
Sam’s Pizza Palace, family owned and operated since 1957, is one of Wildwood's most famous pizzerias and a favorite among locals and summer visitors. Located on the south side of 26th and the Boardwalk, Sam's serves up a simple menu of pizza (including plain, pepperoni and white broccoli) as well as birch beer with crushed ice.
 
Sam Sperra and his wife immigrated to Trenton, NJ in 1951 where Sam opened a “Lunch Truck” serving sandwiches as well as homemade soups. After a visit to Wildwood, Sam decided to open a steak sandwich shop on the Wildwood boardwalk at 24th Street. Before long, Sam purchased a small pizza oven and started selling pizzas to hungry boardwalk walkers. Sam's was soon so popular that he moved into a larger restaurant (where it is still located today) and focused on pizza-making. The rest is history.

Was always a Mack's guy when a youngster during my summers in WW. But now we are Sam's all the way. I will grant you there have been ups and downs through the years, but they are by far the most consistent on the Boards.

Tried all the slop this website has recommended, and NOTHING compares to Sam's. This is hands down the best pizza you'll find at the Jersey Shore. Clearly this "pizza tour" has something against this delicious pizza place!!!! TEAM SAM'S!!!!

I been going to sams for over 30 years. I love when they make the pizzas in front of you. The crust is perfect the sauce had a sweet flavorfull taste and the cheese blends in to sauce and crust in a pizza heavenly way that no one can explain. The pizza is that good. A favor among the locals. Go there and you wont regret it!!!

Sam's is the best on the boardwalk and for me, it wasn't too hard to decide on that. There's decent pizza all over the boards but Sam's wins on consistency factor... perfect crispiness and delicious sweet sauce every time. That's the most impressive thing about it - you can expect the same quality every time you go there. Service can be "meh" due to crowds and the price continues to rise but as far as taste goes, it has yet to be beat. Do yourself a favor and get a whole pie to eat in instead of a slice. And Mack's? I actually think it's pretty good, but I'd never take it over Sam's.

Sam's is always a go-to - especially if you are just walking by. Always consistently turning out pies at the fly-by window, always hot and always crispy. No re-heat necessary. Best consistency on the boardwalk. Flavor may be better elsewhere, but always a hot slice here.
