it's changed hands more times than an iPhone. While it's tempting to write-off this place, next to Mambo Grill, as more of the same, Sammy's feels substantial. Beyond the requisite rundown of toppings, a section called gourmet pizza caught my eye. An Alfredo pie w/ white, creamy sauce and chix and broc., Fenway pizza, w/sausage pepper and onion, Margherita and spinach pies on "thin crust" could indeed be appealing.
I put thin crust in quotes because one man's crisp waffer is another's thick Sicilian. There is no regulation when it comes to how thin is thin. And what constitutes thin. Calzones, gyros, pasta meals and panini (yawn) round out the mega offerings. Owner Matt, (Sammy's alter ego) seems like the kind of guy that will last more than three mo. He had a firm handshake and intelligent gaze with a note of mischief. In other words, the ideal temper for a pizza man. They open Tues.
