Sad to see them go. Our neighbors and us did go there years ago. Before COVID.

We liked the pizza and the meals. Sad to see them go.

They were a knock-off to the one and true Sammy's Pizza in Northern MN anyhow.

Sammy's Pizza & Restaurant | Established 1954

Never went to one of those the 5.5 years or so I lived in Minnesota.

Looks like both locations: Wildwood and Ocala have closed. The owner had cancer. That must have been the deciding factor. His son Paulie was running Ocala during his treatment. Their food and pizza were acceptable and didn’t break the bank.

Went once. Wasn't a fan, but still sorry to see this.

Sammy’s claimed they were from Brooklyn and that they were authentic NYC Italian but if you believe they modeled after MN, it might just be a coincidence.

The phrase "good pizza in Minnesota" is an oxymoron, unless "Minnesota" is a neighborhood in New York City of which I haven't heard.

Lutefisk, love it or hate it

They actually served lutefisk in the dinning hall once in a while in the rather large and now even larger U of Minnesota dorm called Middlebrook Hall .

There is no good pizza that isn't New York pizza, that's axiomatic. One could debate which borough makes the best pizza, or which pizzeria, but once you leave city, everything else is a cheap imitation wannabee.

If you have new york taste buds.. Throw a pizza on the table from new york and one from the favorite pizza place for every state in the union and put on blinders, sample all of them. Then you would see what I mean.
