" This has been my family’s favorite Italian restaurant for generations! We love the vibe, and the food never disappoints. The lasagna and garlic bread are must-haves, and they even have a family-style serving option. The waitstaff always remembers our favorite orders, which adds a special touch to our experiences here. Highly recommended for anyone in Memphis! " (*Curated Review*)

" Each dish at Pete and Sam's made me feel like I was having a home-cooked meal with family. The service was enthusiastic, and the food was great overall. The eggplant Parmesan was fantastic, and even the bread was a highlight! The vibe is very warm and inviting, perfect for catching up with friends over a good meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Perfect spot for a casual dinner with friends! Pete and Sam's did not disappoint in flavor or ambiance. The service was friendly, quick, but they could use more attentiveness during peak hours. Prices are reasonable for the quality of food. Would definitely revisit to try more dishes from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was decent, I feel it didn't live up to the hype. The meatballs were good, but the marinara didn’t stand out. The establishment is clean and has an inviting atmosphere, but I expected more from the service. It felt slightly rushed even though the restaurant wasn't busy. I might consider returning, but I want to try more of their well-recommended dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my first experience at Pete and Sam's! The staff was friendly, and the restaurant had a nice vibe. The lasagna was filling and pretty good, but the spinach side was the star of the meal. I could not get enough of it! Overall, a good place to drop in for casual dining. I look forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Even though the ambiance was appealing, I found the food lacking in some areas. The lasagna was good but didn't have that homemade taste I craved. Service was decent, though a bit slow, and my side salad was somewhat wilted. There are certainly better Italian restaurants; however, I appreciate the family-style hospitality here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing experience at Pete and Sam's with my family! Everyone loved their meals, especially the diverse pasta selection. The portions were plentiful, and the server ensured our drinks were never empty. The atmosphere radiated nostalgia, and I loved how they brought back memories of family gatherings. Definitely a top choice for any occasion! " (*Curated Review*)
