" I had high hopes for Sam's after hearing about their pizza. The garlic knots we ordered as an appetizer were delightful and addictive. However, the pizza itself was disappointing. I tried the stuffed Chicago deep dish, but it felt bland and too doughy without any character. The staff was friendly, and the restaurant was clean, but I hope they can improve the pizza's taste to match the hype I heard. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience at Sam's! You know it's a good sign when the owner is so passionate about his craft. I ordered the Sicilian pizza, and it was cooked to perfection. The toppings were fresh and generous, and the crust had that beautiful homemade touch. The ambiance was relaxed and welcoming. I also appreciated the friendly service; it felt as though we were family. I would highly recommend Sam's to anyone who loves pizza, and I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came across Sam's after searching for pizza in Daytona Beach, and I couldn’t be happier! Their coal-fired pizza hit all the right notes. I opted for the garlic knots and a meat-lover's pizza, which both blew me away with flavor and freshness. It was clear that high-quality ingredients were used throughout, and I couldn't finish my meal because the portions were sizable. The whole dining experience was elevated further by Sam’s personable nature. The restaurant itself is small but cozy. Can't recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sam's Coal Fired Pizza is everything I hoped it would be and more! The quality of the pizzas is outstanding. I'm a huge fan of their Detroit-style special with sausage! The flavors burst in my mouth and every bite was an absolute pleasure. I had the chance to meet Sam, who is incredibly passionate about his craft and engaged with customers, which makes the experience feel even more special. Their seating is a bit tight, but the great food and warm atmosphere completely overshadow that. Also, the prices are reasonable given the portion sizes! I highly recommend checking this place out. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love Sam’s because of all the rave reviews I’s seen online, but my experience was underwhelming. I tried both the New York and Chicago styles, hoping to find my favorite, but instead found both lacked the crispiness I expect in coal-fired pizza. Although the flavors were decent, the textures were not what I had hoped for. I also found the seating quite cramped. The service was nice, but I left feeling disappointed and wished I'd gone somewhere else. Maybe I just caught them on an off day. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say, my expectations based on the hype were high, but my experience fell a little flat. I tried the Chicago deep dish, and while it was decent, it was not what I remembered from my last visit to Chicago. The crust ended up being quite soggy, and the flavor was fairly mild. The service, however, was friendly, and the restaurant had a nice vibe. I appreciate what Sam is trying to do, but I hope to see improvements in texture and flavor to make it more authentic! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a less-than-stellar experience at Sam's. The pizza I ordered ended up being undercooked and soggy, which was disappointing given all the good reviews I'd heard. The toppings were tasty, but the crust didn't deliver as expected. The atmosphere was buzzing with energy, and the staff were attentive, which was a plus. I'll probably give it another shot in the future, but this time I'll make sure to order it extra crispy! " (*Curated Review*)
