This is Chuck E Cheese without the fun characters but With worse service and pizza, at higher prices.

They sell premade pizzas Pepperoni, sausage, cheese for $8.50 each. They also sell a Sammy's Special for $ 9.50. Yet when I had three pizzas made up Ground beef/green pepper they charged me $15.50 a piece. It was not explained to me when I ordered that at the most it would cost me $9.50. The manager had a hard time explaining to me why they were more expensive. Don't think I'll go here again. read more

We had a party of 16 on a Friday night. Very accommodating, great communication, awesome pizza Definitely would go back!! read more

Good pizza, high price per serving. I have enjoyed sams for 50 years. Little changesa

Fast service. Great tasting pizza. Staff was attentive asking if we needed anything else Fun game room and very easy parking too

Always excellent; crispy pizza and great service. We visit it every time we are in town.

My family and I were driving through and my husband, who loves pizza, found Sam's off his Google search. We like to try different pizza places on our road trips and Sam's was getting great reviews. We are not disappointed! The restaurant gives a quaint nostalgic feel to when we were kids. There's a little arcade, spacious seating area with open viewable cook area. We were greeted right away and welcomed to choose our own seating. There were a few families already seated but the wait staff was very tentative and we got our drink order in right away. After a few minutes with the menu and a bathroom break for the kids, we ordered. Our pizza fries came out and they were hot and beautiful cooked. The crust was crispy and fluffy, cheese melted with just the right amount of garlic salt. My son ordered some of their new wings. They came out a little after the pizza fries. Unfortunately, being a new item they're probably still working out the kinks but the middle of the wings were cold. Our pizza came out and I told the wait staff and asked if they could put them in the microwave. He said he would take them back. Our waitress came back and was apologetic and said they would make us another batch for here or they could box them up to go. We got them to go since we're working with our three year old on sitting nicely and he was not having it. We got our bill and they were so kind, they took the wings off our bill which they did not have to do but it was very much appreciated. We've been to restaurants where constructive criticism was not received well but we're humbled that there is still an established that knows how to treat their patrons right. Thanks you for providing us with a warm welcome, delicious food and great service. read more

Not very impressed. There is hardly anything to pick from on the menu. The food that I did get was rather bland and over salted. The pizza was very greasy and the "garlic bread" is just Texas toast and marinara sauce. Not very much effort put into the quality of food here. Not a tasty meal and service was lacking. I was seated for a good while before my server came by. Definitely won't be stopping by here again. read more

$30 for a 14" cheese and sausage???? Live in the now Sams. Your store is 1 mile from my home and you're charging $5 for delivery. You're pizza is pretty damn good but not worth $30. read more

A Wausau tradition and staple! Great thin crust pizza! They cut it into little squares. There's a sausage on every piece.

Always the best tasting pizza here in central Wisconsin, consistent, delicious, great service, and always feels like home.

I did take out. Pizza is always good. They have a great staff mostly made up of high school students, what a good group of workers they are...from food prep to wait staff. read more

Wasn't a big fan of the crust or the super tiny pieces it was cut into. Service was great, everyone was friendly, place was clean. Worth a try, if you like their pizza I'm sure it's an amazing place. read more

I give it 5 stars for the pizza alone. I love cracker style crust pizza LOVE IT. I will admit I went in on Saturday night so this place was a lot like a chuck cheese at the time. However tuning that out focusing on the experience my partner and I had I would easily say this is the best pizza in the area. A great place for travelers to experience what the locals like read more

Very good pizza, I recommend to any one needing a pizza to stop by. Why we went here was, they had earlier hours ! We needed pizza for a birthday at home - no one else in town opened before 4:00. Can't understand no one but me needs pizza before 4:00 on packers game Sunday ?! read more

One of my top pizza places ever! Amazing pizza and fun atmosphere. So great that we ate it 2 times in one day and would have had it the next day as well if we could. Cost to worth it ratio: 5 stars (same price as most pizzas, but SO much better!) Pics: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/ivDtB-5JEb197gls30LDNQ Highlights: - Pizza: I have to start with this since it's simply amazing! So much so, I think I need to comment on each part that makes up this winning pie: -- Cheese: best cheese combo ever. Not sure if it's cause it's in the dairy state or what, but the cheese really stands out as being exceptional. Not sure what's all in there but I definitely tasted the sharpness of cheddar and the mellowness of a white cheese. Whatever it was it worked in a BIG way. And the amount was just right--enough cheese not to feel jipped, but not too much so it's oozy overkill. -- Crust: super thin and pastry-like. A small layer of protection from the cheese so it doesn't get all over your hands and gives it just enough crunch to go along with the cheesy delight. -- Square pieces: I just think this is the cutest thing--bite sized pieces. Kinda like mini candy bars so you don't feel as bad eating it. ;-) Super star points for having a piece of sausage in the middle of every piece. Only con to this format is that it's a bit harder to eat the inside pieces, as they are floppier than the crusty ones. You can however, make a cute little pizza sandwich by putting together 2 pieces with the insides facing in. -- Sam's special: I knew it was meant to be when I saw their special is their my favorite pizza topping combination: sausage, onion, and green pepper. 8-) For those non-veggie lovers like the hub, they are hidden so all you see is the sausage on top. Good-sized dollop of sausage too. - Garlic bread: hot and soft with a layer of cheese if you order it like that - Coca-Cola memorabilia: it's just like my house or a mini version of the Coke museum in Atlanta with the collection of bottles, rugs, cars, plates, etc. This sealed the deal for a match made in heaven for me since I'm big into Coca-Cola collectibles. - Game room: pinball, artic thunder (love this snowmobile game), a little carousel, and all topped off with a with Packer helmet ride. - Open oven area: always like to see em make the pizza. - Ice cream bar: cute little soda-shoppy area with stools where you can get shakes and such. - Friendly staff: our waitress checked in a lot and was very attentive, - Hours: open Saturday for lunch unlike the other location which isn't open until dinner. This one is also opened til 1am which is fantastic for late night eats. Helpful hint: when out, call ahead, go pick up the pizza right before 1am, go back out for more drinks, and enjoy it after your done for the night. ;-) And yes, we did that! - No boxes: leftovers and orders come in a bag vs. the traditional box which I'm sure saves paper. Lowlights (my flip side to highlights): - None in Cali--you have to go to Wisconsin for this treat! I hear in other parts of Wisconsin you can find Sammy's that is rumored to be a family member with a similar recipe. - Not open for lunch Sunday: kaboshed our smooshing in 3 Sam's pizzas in 24 hour plan while we were in town I will always make a stop when I'm around--I heart Sam's pizza! read more

PSA: Servers in Wisconsin make 2.25/hr...be sure to tip accordingly!!! If you can't afford to tip you should not be dining out. When I think of the best pizza in the area, it's Sam's 10/10 time. I love everything about the pizza: the size, sauce, cheese, everything! The 'new' owners have made some great upgrades to the menu and the building, while keeping with the history of great service, amazing pizza, and a family friendly atmosphere. I've been coming here for over 20 years and have lived in foodie scenes like Seattle, and with that said I think Sam's is hands down the pizza there is! I have yet to be disappointed. My go to: Sam's Special w/ a crispy bake...it will not disappoint!!!' read more

A local gem. Must go with the pizza; thin crust and oh, so good! As an Everest alum, the themed DCE room is nostalgic & entertaining. Game room is meh, but keeps the kids busy while waiting for dinner. read more

Best pizza in the area! Deliciously thin crust without being the crunchy papery kind of thin. Generous with the toppings. Onions are diced instead of sliced, personal preference but I like that I don't have an entire slice of onion coming off in one bite. The pizza is cut into small squares which is great to just grab and eat. Friendly staff, fast service. Got a whizzer as well (their version of a blizzard/mcflurry type ice cream) and it was amazing as well! Very creamy and consistent with the mix-ins throughout. Nothing negative about the place! read more

Great service great pizza, many many encounters and all have been great, never a bad pizza and they cut them in fun little squares, restaurant has a small game room for the kids also. read more

Sam's pizza place is the perfect place to go with the family, children's outings, birthday parties for kids, etc. The atmosphere is "fifties" and there is a game room for the kids. There are t.v.s if you want to catch a sporting event. Sam's pizza is good, not great. The night we were there, our pizza crust was over done. There is nothing really special about it. My husband wishes he would have ordered a malt while we were there. This was a great place when our girls were young. Not really our first choice for pizza now that the kids are gone. read more

Highly recommend! I usually prefer NY style pizza, but this pizza is outstanding. Thin crust and cut in squares. I ordered a cheese. Ate the whole 12" pizza myself! Crust was crisp on the edges and the sauce was perfect - not too sweet, not too bland. Cheese was superb. Also ordered cheese toast, which was good, but a little too much garlic for me. Pizza was promptly ready for pickup as promised. I would definitely order again!!! read more

From the Milwaukee area. Came up to the area for work and stayed down the street from Sam's at the Country Inn and Suites. Decided to try Sam's out and was not disappointed. Pizza was ready quick and tasted delicious. Good crunchy thin crust and the cheese was awesome. Had cheesy bread as well, which was quite good (I don't usually get sides though so). Would recommend if you are in the area. I am glad they aren't close to where I live, I'd gain a lot of weight eating here. read more

I was in the Wausau area on business and a friend said there was one restaurant in the Wausau area I had to try. It was Sam's Pizza Palace. I would not say this is the best pizza in the world, but it is defiantly in my top 10. If you like thick crust pizza, this is not the place for you. Their crust is the perfect balance between too thin and hand tossed. There sauce and cheese are balanced so one does not overwhelm the other. They have a wide selection of ingredients and they make sure you have some on your pizza. Even the next day, their pizza was good. The service was great and friendly. This is a small town pizza place, not a chain, you are treated as a friend, not just another customer. I love the decor. I am a Coca-Cola collector, so all the memorabilia on the walls and in cases is worth the stop. The place is clean and large enough for big groups. The make the pizza right out front so you can see the care they put into each pizza. You can only get beer at Sam's Pizza Palace, one of the reasons I did not give it a higher rating. I like wine with my pizza, but that is not the end of the world, they do service Coca-Cola products. read more

Sam's Pizza has become a Wausau staple when it comes to Pizza. Why you ask? Any kid growing up who played sports, was a boy scout or was active in any organization knows Sam's Pizza because of... PIZZA PARTIES. Sam's is always the first choice to hold end of the year parties. It has a small game room with video games to keep kids busy while your pie is tossed to perfection. Sam's Pizza is for thin crust pizza lovers. With tasty cheese, spicy sausage and everything in between, Sam's offers a perfectly balanced pizza that is greasy as it is good. They also offer malts, shakes and old fashioned desserts to cap off that great pie! If your a Coca-Cola collector or buff, this is a MUST STOP. The inside is littered with Coke collectors items you probably couldn't see many other places. Sam's will continue to flourish as it holds a special place in the hearts of many, remembering the times spent here as a kid, enjoying fun games, having GREAT pizza and socializing with your friends after D.C. Everest football games. Sam's is a Wausau staple and well worth the stop if you love thin crust pie! read more

My family is from Wausau and I grew up on Sam's. Their pizza is the best - 5 stars all the way. Stopping at Sams is a requirement when we're all in town. Do yourself a favor and go to the original location on Elm in Wausau. The Schofield location is a disaster. We've given it several tries due to the size of our group (Elm Street is very small!) and every time has been a nightmare. Tonight we called ahead and ordered 5 pizzas for pick up. We were told to come pick up in an hour. When we got there they said it would be ready in 15 minutes. Then we were told 10 more minutes. When we checked again they suddenly didn't have our order -which we had already paid for. Extremely disappointing and also not the first time this has happened to us at this location. We've never had any issues at the Elm Street and will only be going to that location from now on. read more

Ordered delivery last night from here. Three pizzas and double order of cheese bread. Food was great and hot. Wonder if it is relation to Sammy's pizza from Hibbing and the valley. Tasted similar and great. Will be back next time in town. read more

Very clean establishment. Staff & owners friendly & accommodating. Pizza was really good -sauce was a little salty though. Excellent thin crust and enjoyable. read more

Best pizza I've ever had, I now come here on a weekly basis even though I'm a couple zip codes away.

Great pizza, good service good arcade, so expect it to be busy Friday's and Saturday nights.

Food is excellent and staff is amazing!! Keep up the good work!! My favorite pizza is sausage and mushroom!

Great pizza! Best family atmosphere that we've seen so far. Cheesy breadstick appetizer is good but looks like something you threw together in college. And the sauce that is served with it taste like someone simply dumped Italian seasoning straight into canned tomatoes sauce. But the pizza is fantastic! And super affordable! And they have a large play area for kids. read more

Stopped here on Saturday late afternoon with my daughter as we were just passing through town and wanted a pizza. Ordered a pizza along with some garlic bread and everything was delicious. Nice crispy thin crust, just how we like it. Staff were friendly as well. Only knock was there were people standing right outside the entrance smoking so we got a nice whiff of cigarette smoke on the way in. Would definitely recommend! read more

Sam's Pizza is my absolute favorite pizza of all time! The crust is thin and crispy and the sauce is just slightly sweet! We always order sausage and onion with mushrooms on 1/3 (for my husband). Normally at other places, we'd order pepperoni, but at Sam's, the sausage is the best! And the onions they use are also slightly sweet-give the onions a try! It's impossible to pick up your pizza and not drool from the aroma! It smells so good! They hide the mushrooms under the cheese, so we are always looking for which 1/3 is my husband's-but he says Sam's mushrooms are great, and they are generous with them. The pizzas are cut in small squares, not like a pie. And every small piece has a fairly large sausage on it! It's a very unique pizza and we are addicted! You can also get them 1/2 cooked and finish baking at home if you want to ensure it's nice and hot. Also, you can order a day ahead of time and get them partially cooked and frozen! When we lived in the country, we did this a lot from the Sam's in Wausau, but now we are just a few miles away from the Schofield store. Sam's has spoiled us and we never want any other pizza! There is no comparison! read more

We were Sam's Pizza lovers for years. After the sale of the business the new owners need to go back to the original way that they were known for. Ordered a large pizza with mushrooms, beef, Canadian bacon, and onions. Ordered it half baked and picked it up. Cost was now $33 DOLLARS. The beef now looks like sausage not crumbled as before, Canadian bacon comes as large round pieces and before was small cubes. Pizza is not like it used to be. Also most of the time the center is not baked completely like doughy. Going to Angelo's now. read more

We had the pepperoni and sausage! I highly recommend this over any chain pizza. Crust is thin and crispy sauce flavorful, toppings taste and cheese was just right. Price was very acceptable. read more

Good pie, but not great. Not even the best in the city... but it sure does beat the chain-restaurant offerings. Very friendly service (well, this is small-town Wisconsin so that's pretty typical). The decor tries to be kitschy, but fails in that respect... its just kinda dumpy, dark, and worn-out. read more

These 2 locations are Wausau staples. Good pie. Since I can't make it to Zaffiros in Milwaukee anymore, this place is somewhat (sort of) close when it comes to 'za. read more

This place is a classic. I have been going here since I was a kid. From birthday parties to Christmas parties to meeting friends after a high school football game or dance, it was always the place to be. They have great thin crust pizza! It has a classic feel with a game room and the staff wearing white uniforms and the women in skirts. You can watch them make your pizzas behind the counter. They also have ice cream sundaes and floats. read more

We were looking for a low key place to eat on a Sunday with a toddler. Sam's reminds me of pizza parlors from my childhood. They have arcade games in the front, and friendly teenagers waiting tables. Pizza was good, and the little slices gave you amnesia about how much you ate. We didn't have to worry if our toddler burst into a happy song, or played with his Legos at the table. Everybody was pretty chill, lots of families and Wausau locals. Will come again. read more
