As as far as Italian food and pizza in Florida goes San's isn't all that bad, but its still a far cry from NYC standards. The staff and owner are nice enough, and the place itself is clean with a nice equestrian decor reflective of the horse country area in Ocala. Last night we ordered a chicken parm hero, eggplant parm dinner entree, and cheese calzone. Large portion for the entree which came with a side salad and pasta. Garlic knots too. All were good, so no major complaints, but nothing wowed me. Passable for Florida. Can't wait to get some real pizza when I get back to NYC! read more

Orignal owner sold this location and pizza is nowhere close to what it was under prior ownership.

The worst pizza I have ever had. Greasy with thin dry tasteless crust , too much cheese compared to the amount of sauce, and no seasoning. It tasted like I was eating a goopy greasy piece of cheese. Also a terrible after taste. So upset I wasted $30! I am not eating it. read more

Best Meatball sub I have found in Ocala! Salad was amazingly fresh! Highly recommend Sans! read more

ordered Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo Pasta and I was very disappointed. It looked Iike some kind of puree. I ordered a Cesar salad as well but seeing this makes me not even want to eat it. Complete waste of money. I won't come here ever again. read more

It was the worst pizza and Caesar salad I have ever had in my life. The pizza lacked flavor, the sauce was water-based.. same goes for the Caesar salad. The best thing about this dish was the dough and the ice water. The service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere was your basic pizzeria. . But I must say they have great music playing in the background.. I would definitely not recommend this place. I would never come again. read more

Unfortunately this place was mildly disappointing. I've been on a hunt for a good local pizza place to support and this would have been a good contender. The butter chicken pizza smelled more like butter chicken than it tasted. In fact, the pizza didn't taste much of anything. That being said, the dough was cooked perfectly and there was a viral-worthy cheese pull. The pieces of chicken were of good quality and not overly dry (just bland). Really wish there was more butter chicken sauce or even a side thing of butter chicken sauce to dip into to add more flavor... The garlic knots didn't have any perceivable garlic, be it taste or visual. Plenty of Parmesan, and very heavily seasoned, but hardly any garlic taste whatsoever. Not a lot of butter or oil to the knots also made it dry. The dough had a great taste and was also cooked perfectly well, though be warned the knots were more firm than soft pillowy. Marinara sauce cannot be reviewed as I am biased to it (not a marinara fan). Staff were very friendly and food was made promptly as well. *may return after a while to see if things have improved since it shows so much promise* read more

I've been going to San's for years. The new owners have changed some things. They don't put enough toppings on any more, the pizzas aren't like they used to be. I've tried several times but have been disappointed. Skimping on the ingredients doesn't lend itself well for the customers. I used to order several for parties and taken them to friends but I haven't gone back since the last time I ordered. They took a great place and made it less than mediocre. read more

Pizza is more than food to me. It's a passion. And Sans Pizzeria proved to be one of the best pizzerias ANYWHERE. I ordered a sampling of 3 different large pizzas. 18" is considered the standard large in a New York City style pizzeria, and Sans did not disappoint. I ordered a large plain cheese and a large pie, half eggplant half meatball. I also ordered a grandmas pie, which they call Grandma Jane's. Wow, wow, & double wow. The plain pie was excellent; the perfect ratio of sauce to crust to cheese. Without a perfect ratio, the magic of pizza can't happen. Too much of any main component throws off the final product. Not Siegfried & Roy magic, more like David Blaine magic; very amazing. The eggplant slices were ridiculously good. The meatball slice tasted awesome in my mouth with plenty of tasty meatballs scattered on top. The Grandma's pie was exponentially delicious & super thin with really tasty, thick splotches of grandma's style sauce sitting on top. I also got garlic knots which I can only describe as the most f#*king delicious garlic dough balls ever. What makes Sans SO on point is that they understand how to construct a pizza by hand (only one guy making all the pizzas. I guess he's got the magic fingers.). Not too much cheese, super thin, great sauce, tasty crust. And, their prices are on point too. Thank you Sans for giving this boy from Brooklyn a taste of old Bensonhurst. And who says Florida doesn't have great pizza. 10 stars here!!!! read more

Having heard good things about this restaurant for about a year, and being on that side of town, I decided to stop for a late lunch. The place was almost empty, but it was late for lunch and mid week. I was greeted and directed to sit wherever I wanted. Drink order taken, soft drinks are Pepsi products, a disappointment for a Diet Coke fan, but no menu for a bit. Prices are reasonable and the Italian choices plentiful! Although I thought I would get pizza and salad, there was no combo offer and the entree combos were interesting, complete, salad, garlic knots and entrees. I decided on manicotti, and salad with house Greek dressing. The salad, was not a handful out of a bag but lettuce, chopped tomatoes, onions, peppers, onion... garlic rolls wet hot and garlicky. The manicotti was delicious! It was made with, what appeared to be fresh sheets of pasta rolled around a delicious cheese filling, good sauce and topped with plenty of melted cheese! I also got a to go, my daughter's favorite, pasta with vodka sauce. She loved it! Next time I'm out that way I'm trying the deep dish pizza, I'm a fan. My main concern and criticism is, get Fox News off the TV. In this day and age, too political for a public place.... I have dinner for 2 more nights ...thanks Will return to try pizza, probably read more

This used to be the best pizza in Ocala. Now it is under new ownership and is terrible! Half the toppings you used to get and doesn't taste nearly as good! read more

Food is ok, but not spectacular. Service is usually good. It's small, no booths, and pretty cold. Bring a sweater. The food taste has changed under new ownership... just not the same. read more

This is my 2nd time ordering at Sans. I went to pick my food up the first time and inside it was nice and clean. The workers were very nice. The first time I just ordered the meat lovers because that's what my husband loves and they did a very good job! My husband and I loved it so this time we ordered the meat lovers pizza, and the butter chicken pizza, which was amazing. I have never had Indian flavors on a pizza before but I always order butter chicken at Indian restaurants so it was kind of fun to be able to order it on a pizza! Antipasto salad was a great - the size was perfect and it was yummy. We also tried their stuffed shells which we both thought were delicious. The delivery was very quick too! I highly recommend going to this place. We have not been disappointed!! read more

Great food, friendly personalized service. Loved the Pizza. Glas he reopened with the same great menu.

Great place to eat. Huge servings whether it is spaghetti and meatballs, Philly sub or pizza with their wide variety of toppings. We neither can eat it all and take the rest home. Delicious. read more

The pizza has gone completely down hill with the new owners. Dough is overworked and tasteless, zero seasoning. The sauce has changed, it's watery and the same as the pizza, Zero seasoning, cheap cheese and improperly layered. Even when well done had a thick gum line where the water that has been added to the sauce prevents the dough from cooking. The pesto bread had no garlic at all and as basil, garlic, olive oil, pine nuts and Parmesan cheese are the only ingredients that's just sad, very very sad, that it has drop this low, that fast.... I would definitely not be coming back. read more

Great food. Friendly staff and a family atmosphere. The owner takes care of his guests. We stopped off for dinner on our way south to Tampa and glad we did. We had a Greek pizza and Caesar salad. The crust was crispy and perfect. The salad dressing was delicious. Lots of families eating and stopping in to pick up. San seems to know everyone in town. read more

The pizza we had was the worst I have ever eaten. Do NOT recommend! I would not let my dogs eat there. Maybe I was there on a bad day.

EXCELLENT CASUAL RESTAURANT with great food and friendly, efficient service. Shanna our server was attentive and efficient. we love their Stromboli, New York Style Pizza and Italian meals we have had there. The crust is always amazing. Good prices and an overall great place for a casual meal or takeout. Great job guys! read more

Okay let's be fair. If you're a gamer, the reason why you're here is because of Sans from Undertale. I was among that group. I saw a flier in the mail for Sans Pizzeria and just had to check it out. When I got there I found the inside to be very homely. They had TVs you could watch while you wait for your meal. The place definitely had the classic Italian Restaurant Vibe. The staff and especially the Manager Samson was very chill. I would go in to the restaurant dressed up in cosplay and they would LOVE it. Any restaurant that is chill with that level of shenanigans is a ok with me. Obligated to, I asked the question if they actually knew who Sans from Undertale was. They didn't. They did explain that the name Sans is short for Samson who created the chain of restaurants. The food is very quality and all for a good price. Just be warned, they WILL tip shame you though. Which I should go on record and say, what people these days DON'T realize is, TIPPING IS OPTIONAL. Tipping a thing that you do out of the kindness of your heart if you have the extra cash and wanted to reward a server for good service. It's like giving food or money to a homeless person. It is not illegal to not leave a tip. No one will fine you or unalive you for not leaving a tip. You gain nothing from tipping a person. You tip someone out of the kindness of your heart should you choose to. People who act so entitled that they feel they DESERVE a tip and will shame you if you don't is absolutely terrible customer service to the point I want to report it. I WAS going to leave a five star review for this place because of the quality of it's food, but this tip shaming stuff is unacceptable. Now I can only give it a 3 star review. read more

Sans Pizzeria - They even have their own security to prevent you from getting to the kitchen. Ha, I'm just kidding. It's just me. They chill like that. - Italian Near Me - Ocala, Florida

The margarita pizza I ordered was just flat out terrible. The new owners do not know how to make a pizza the crust was HARD as a rock, break your teeth hard. NOT going back anytime soon!! read more

On the recommendation of a co-worker, we decided to get pizza here instead of our favorite place. The place is very clean and the servers are attentive. We ordered the garlic knots and a chicken Parmesan pizza. Everything was fresh and hot and tasty. The sauce served with the garlic knots was full of flavor. This is a great place for Italian food. We will definitely return. read more

So I tried calling my order in as I have done in the past...No answer. So I made the drive anyway. I was expecting to see the owner behind the counter working, but was instead greeted by a different "new" owner. Well, he was very nice, but the food has gone waaaay down hill. I only gave 2 star because he seems really nice, but has no business in this business. read more

Toppings taste cheap, especially the sausage and the cheese. The crust is bland and tough. Don't think I'll try it again.

Great calzone and pasta Alfredo. The bread is made in house. Everything tasted great. Owners are horse lovers. read more

I walked in for a few slices and a drink one afternoon and didn't think too much of the place. However, do not sleep on San's. The quality of the plain Jane cheese slice was tremendous! Huge, New York style slices that are cooked to perfection. San's mixes authentic New York pie with southern hospitality in the staff. So far, best pizza in the County. read more

Hands down best pizza in Florida. Originally from NJ, been living in Florida over 10 years now and have had my share of crummy pizza down here. The pizza was perfectly done, crust was crunchy, cheese not greasy and sauce wasn't sweet or loaded with Italian seasonings. We happen to stop here by chance on the way to the winter fair. $13 for a large 18" pie and very friendly staff. My son had a bit of a meltdown and they immediately brought him over a coloring book and garlic knot! read more
