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.

Has been my favorite pizza in Wildwood for over 30 years. I have tried Mack's and others but they fall way short to Sam's. You must have something personal against Sam's to not have them in your top 5. Can't take you seriously anymore.

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!!!
