Reviews of Eddie And Sam's N.Y Pizza
Pamela Nguyen
So yummy that I had to have a big bite before taking a picture. One of my favorite places for thin crust pizza in Tampa Bay Area. I would highly encourage to get your pizza by the pie if you could. It comes out quickly and extra tasty. Pizza by the slice is still good if you’re looking to sample a variety of flavors.
Mike Shaw
WOW...Best pizza I've had in a long time! Fir The crust was perfect, the sauce flavorful and not too much and the toppings were fresh. Especially enjoyed the REAL Italian sausage that was on it. There's something for everyone on the menu.
It was quite busy when we arrived. Ordered 3 pizzas for our group and they were ready much faster than anticipated.
Be warned... that 20" pizza is bigger that the box looks hanging up there on the wall... not that I'm complaining!
This was our first time here....DEFINITELY won't be our last
Jawad Ali Talpur
This place is quick fast pizza delivery and on top serves delicious NY style pizza. You can name the pizza and they got it!
Service was quick
Employees were friendly
Great for big groups to attend and sit on one table to enjoy pizza.
Atmosphere was friendly
Will come here again
I ordered chicken bianca pizza and tomatoes and garlic half and half pizza 🍕
Thalia Perez
Delicious pizza! We got the gluten free one and it was amazing! I love how they aren’t cheap with the toppings and make sure that each of the slices have good amounts on them. I also love that they have an extra crispy option! Will definitely be back very soon!

Had pretty high expectations for a NY Pizza place and I was not disappointed! I had to try the classic cheese first so I got 2 huge slices and was stuffed! So good, might just be the best I've had. Greasy but in a good way, the crust had amazing flavor as well. Very easy ordering process too. Can't wait to go back to try something different.
Jay Beez
This is the spot for thin crust pizzas just like in NYC. They are fast efficient and never skip on taste. For as busy as they are I've never struggled to secure a seat. Best part is the hot garlic wings 😍🤤 I don't eat pizza anywhere else when I'm in town.
nishant narula
For the Friday night dinner we were looking for a pizza place and we decided to have pizza from Eddie & Sam's NY Pizza. We ordered Cheese pizza and veggie pizza online through their website. The order was ready in 20 minutes and we picked the order from the counter. The pizza were hot and delicious. One of the best cheese pizza we had in Tampa. The best cheese pizza in Tampa. Amazing place to try pizzas in Tampa.
Gourmand
Wow, the New York pizza has made its way to Tampa and it is alive and well. This restaurant goes above and beyond, actually importing water from New York, which is then used in the dough.
The pizza selection is enormous, and ordering by the slice allows you to choose a good variety.
The store has some digital kiosks that you can use to order pizza, or you can walk up to the window of pizzas and order there.
Slices are very reasonable for the size at around $4.25 each.
The pizza itself is fantastic. Excellent quality cheese, and slices are fresh and soft, yet sturdy enough with the New York fold to eat it.
The Buffalo chicken pizza is loaded with fresh chicken and a tangy Buffalo sauce. The chicken bacon ranch has thick slices of bacon and a delicious homemade ranch base that gives a little acidic bite to the rich meats and cheese.
The white pizza is excellent with a creamy Alfredo-like sauce but loaded with a ton of garlic flavor.
Their monster 28” pizzas are served in a comically huge box. This box would not fit through a normal door frame. It is insanely big.
Lisa Jackson
The pizza was so good! Had a Sicilian pepperoni and sausage slice and also 2 Supreme slices... they were amazing! Took me back home to Jersey awesome...
Jonathan Kirkland
STOP! Seriously stop reading and decide that you are going to get some REAL NY PIZZA from Eddie and Sam's. My family and I were visiting Tampa and were lucky to find the shop. You go in an order by the slice or the pie, we ordered a 20" pie and it was ready lickety split. The kids learned "the fold" and everyone was a fan of the awesome crust. Seriously, the three of us finished a 20" it was so good. So now you have read to hear why are you not calling or heading to Eddie and Sam's? Hit that thumbs up 👍 if you agree with me.
Frank Di Leo
Let me preface this review with the fact that I was born and raised in Brooklyn. I have lived in Florida for 22 years now and have had numerous pizzas claiming authenticity. I have some that were good and some that were pretty close to the real thing. Today for the first time in decades I have had the actual real thing!!! This pizza is amazing and is EXACTLY what I remember eating for 30 years
Sentia Dorsey
We looooved the pizza here. Even my Jersey born, super picky pizza lover approved. Great sauce flavor, generous toppings, and a perfectly crisped dough w/o being burned. My only complaint is that we live 3-4 hrs away in S. Florida. Will surely try to stop in here again anytime we're in the area.
jose valentin
We had meat lovers, chicken bacon ranch and cheese pizza slices are BIG and their crust is super delicious. Their pizza are made with New York water it works they are super good!
Christian Pressley
Seemed like legit NYC pizza. They had a very up-to-date self-ordering station. You punched in what you wanted on the computer and paid right there as well. It was very convenient. Pizza was pretty good and very much felt like I was eating a slice in NY.
Natalie Young
Very good! Definitely tasted like some NY pizza! 🍕Great spot to stop and grab a slice in downtown Tampa.
Nandia Powell
We love this place. We have a big family so we get the biggest pie they offer. Be careful ordering this if you have a small car it will not fit. Pizza is always fresh you will definitely enjoy.
Bailey Smith
My favorite pizza spot!! The pizza is very tasty and they have nugget ice! I look for excuses to come to Tampa just to eat here!
lisa jax
First time here! The pizza is amazing! I got a sausage amd pepperoni Sicilian slice and 2 Supreme regular slices and a pepsi... so freaking good! I'm from NJ and it took me home!
Michael Scott
If your visiting Tampa and you find yourself in the city hungry for a slice you gotta come here. All different kinds of pizza deli style ready to go. Delicious!
Ashley Williams
Love Eddie and Sam's. I moved away from Tampa years ago and still, their Chicken Parm slice is in my top 3 best pizzas of all time. A lot of seating for a slice shop and easy to walk to the riverfront park afterwards.
Captain Jack Rack'Em
OMG THE BEST PIZZA I've had in Tampa! Been here over 25years! We DESTROYED this awesome pie! Couldn't even get the pic done before eating!!
Brooklyn
Best pizza in Tampa!!! This is coming from a real New Yorker. Been coming here since I moved to tampa. Worth the drive and traffic to come here. The secret is the water- it's imported from NY. No joke! I saw the jugs of water😱🤯
Elly Bovarnick
Awesome pizza! New York style, thin crust, nice and greasy. Perfectly fulfills the craving. There’s seating inside with all of the toppings already at the table. They do need to work on refilling those jars regularly (especially the Parmesan), but we managed. There are many different sizes of pizza, from two people sharing a 14in to too big to fit through the door.
Jason Ballard
TASTY!
Visited for 20+ years. Pizza is priced reasonably for the HUGE slices and tastes AWESOME. Indoor/outdoor seating. Accept Apple Pay & various forms of payment! Give it a try & leave a rating to help others
Matt Rohde
As a New Yorker and been in Florida for the last eight years. This is the best pizza that I have found! Highly highly recommended!
Ryan
Ordered Eddie & Sams off Ubereats on 11/2. Pizza was a little better than okay but not as good as some of the other pizza places in town. I prefer NY NY pizza or Westshore Pizza over it. Just not as tasty.
Keraj Patel
Every time I've been here the pizza has always been fantastic, space is a bit tight so you might not always get seating.
drewski 15
First time trying this place and the two slices of pizza I got were amazing it had the feel of New York pizza which I have missed for so long best place to go to if you really want that true tasting NY pizza
Edvin Mandzukic
Great pizza. Had a pepperoni and a cheese and it was delicious. 2 slices should be enough.5 star
Addison Vaughn
We are visiting from out of town and decided to give this place a try, and we were so pleased! It’s in a great location. We were able to walk from our hotel (only a 6 minute walk). Once we arrived, we ordered a lasagna pizza and wings. Both were delicious! Not a compliant, but I will say that it was somewhat confusing after ordering. We were unsure what side to stand on in order to receive our food. There were many people in the restaurant during this time, but it was still very fast! We will definitely be back when we’re in town again. Thank you for the great experience and full bellies!!
Matt Bauman
The pizza was great. The wait time was great. It’s in a cool part of the city relatively close to the River Walk. I would have given it 5 stars but when our food was ready the guy took my buzzer and basically chucked the pizza at me without saying anything. I know it’s a small thing but the small things set decent businesses apart from great businesses. All in all, it’s great food at a great price.
Jeremy Glover
My wife ordered a slice of pizza with mushrooms and black olives. Rather than actually cooking the toppings, they just threw them on a cheese slice, threw it in the oven for 30 seconds, and served it to us. The mushrooms and olives were barely warm. I got a slice of cheese pizza and it was good.
Mr. Richard
Don’t even get me started with how good this place is. Staff is always great, and the food is darn good. I used to pick up Uber here often when I delivered and finally went and got myself pizza here after someone canceled and I got their pizza. Boy was it good. I try to get a pizza from here as often as once every 2 weeks to a month. There isn’t a whole lot of seating inside and they have a little outside seating too depending on your time of arrival but you can eat pizza anywhere.
I strongly recommend getting a slice or a whole pie here!
Vegas Vickie905
From NY, we are very particular about pizza. We heard this place was one of the best so we tried it while visiting Tampa. We opted for the gluten free crust (love them for that!) and it was the best pizza either of us ever had by a landslide! Absolutely fantastic!
We will definitely be back!
Christopher Rothstein
Being born and raised in New York, now living in Florida it is hard to find good pizza. However, this little gem in Tampa Eddie and Sam's takes me home.
I've been a customer there for 15 plus years, and will be for life!
The secret to their success, water imported from New York!
Give them a try, you'll thank me later!
Joseph Anthony Jerez
Speaking as a New Yorker this is great New York style pizza!!!! A little pricey (2 slices of pepperoni and a soda was almost $11) but excellent pizza!!!!
Marina Machado
One of the best pizza spots in the entire Tampa Bay, however, the place itself is not very clean. I have been a customer since 2018 and every time we come to dine in, I have to find an employee to ask them to wipe the table after previous customers so we can sit down and eat there. Variety of pizzas is impressive and you are also able to make your own if you choose to do so. The line moves pretty quickly and the employees behind the register are very efficient. Again, the only reason I am giving this place 4 stars is the lack of cleaningness in both bathroom and dining room.
Thomas Katarsky
Best pizza in Florida! Coming from Jersey it is hard to find some good NY style pizza in Florida but I was pleasantly surprised! For those that don't know, these guys get the water they use for their pizza shipped from NY and that makes a big difference in taste and texture. My only complaint is their practice of giving small pizza boxes when you order slices. I was dining in and I got 3 slices served in two pretty good quality pizza boxes. It just seems like a waste to me but that's a small gripe. Don't pass this place up it's great!
Rich Helm
Best local pizza that is closest to NY/NJ style pizza! Ordered the 28" pizza which is huge but awesome taste, not oily, great consistent taste and flavor throughout. We did order mushrooms, which was very light on mushrooms for a $5 add-on-only negative. Other than that, we'll be back.
Legoliz McGiggles
Amazing food, made me feel like I was actually back in New York when I stepped inside. The Sicilian slice isn't quite what I was expecting, but was still very good. The regular pie slices are 100% spot on though! Will definitely be returning when I'm in the area.
Demi Diaz
NEW YORKER HERE! Y’all were not lying about this place. I went twice in one week, first got a pie of the gluten free crust cheese pizza (I ordered through text, really wanted it half cheese/half whatever the basil garlic or something flavor you offer) and they said they would do it. When I received the pie, it was only cheese. But whatever, it was still delicious! I did get a really bad stomachache after but I’m mildly lactose and gluten intolerant — and tried to finish a whole pie alone.
I went back yesterday with my gluten digestive aid and Lactaid for a cheese and pepperoni slice. Waiting less than 5 minutes for a perfectly heated slice of New York pizza.
*Random side-note but the cardboard boxes are a huge waste. You can go NY style and put the slices in a paper bag, or somehow find a creative way to recycle the boxes.
We didn’t have the option in the kiosk to say it was ‘for here’ and ended up piling yet another cardboard box in your garbage can.
Joshua Smith
The 28” pizza filled 5 people the. It was busy but very fast paced we got our pizza within 15 minutes of ordering
Melissa Jean
Yeah...so....I'm about 115lbs and a very healthy eater, decided on a splurge day. There are 2 pieces left. #andaNYgirl
julie williams
Woohoo! Love this place! A refreshing take on authentic Ny style pizza! Love the pepperoni!
Chris Lampe
Standard pizza is very greasy. Sauce is good. Crust is good. But expect to go through alot of napkins getting that grease off. If you fold it, watch for the stream.
I would 100% recommend the Sicilian slices. The bread soaks the grease and they are fantastic!
Jason Hughes
Best pizza I have had. Will definitely go back. Very busy and not alot of seating so I would plan for take out. once you get the order in they are quick to get it out! Finding parking that's free is also difficult if not impossible.
Nancy's Journey to make His name known
I have to be Gluten free and this pizza hands down is the best I’ve ever had and I’ve never gotten sick. Which as a person living with celiac disease is a big deal. I order at least 2-3 times a month. Perfect crust, and fresh ingredients what else can I ask for! The best!!
Colleen Dennis
The pizza was good, the experience sucked. Ordering through a kiosk is not my idea of dining. Vents dripping water on your head. Staff has no personality. Bathroom gross. Gino's NY Pizzeria in Palm Harbor is 100% better.
Hector Familia
Best NY style pizza from Gainesville to Tampa. This is the best. Always perfectly cooked, thin(see picture for the perfect thickness), and just the right amount of grease on the cheese. Also right crispness that when you fold it it does not flop.
HKO 95
The pizza slices are huge but honestly not the best crust. Like I have a few days more in Tampa but I don't think I'm going back.
Good for the dinner I had and fast services.
Kat Autumn
Literally the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life. Tastes authentic, not too greasy and the ingredients are perfect. This spot is my favourite for sure!
Shayne “Mr. Millennial” Torres
I'm giving them 5 stars all across because the way they handled themselves during Gasparilla Saturday was impressive and this was my first time here. It was packed inside and out. Besides the pizza spot across from The Ritz in Ybor, this is the only other pizza that reminds of and actually taste like I'm back in New York. And the Sicilian? Mmm definitely recommend.
Andrew Coward
Very good pizza! First time here and I'd say it's worth the visit if visiting Tampa. Fine crust, topping flavor, and pretty fast service. An experience in itself. 🍕👌 …
Ron B.
10 stars
Finally some great pizza in Florida
Thank you guys keep doing what you're doing !!!
Brianna Coffman
such good pizza. they serve pizza by the slice which greatly helps when I don’t want to purchase a whole pizza. i would recommend their pepperoni and bbq chicken pizza. overall amazing place will come again
Ben Damato
Absolutely one of the best pizza places in the Tampa Bay area! Great selection of different pizzas, some pretty unique ones too! The garlic knots are HUGE
Mike R
First time here. Had high hopes. Pizza was overbaked, crust was like trisquit cracker crisp instead of crisp yet foldable NYC crust. To me, good pizza crust also is a little salty and tasty. This crust had no taste. Could use more sauce too. Maybe in part due to over baking. Might try again if can't find another NYC style pie here in S. Tampa.
Amanda Dziendzielewski
I can't even express how much I love the pizza. It has become my favorite pizza place in all of pinellas and Hillsborough county. You can't beat the price and I love you order by the slice and can do different varieties. My favorite has been the Buffalo chicken and chicken parm slices. ❤
Ronald Jr
Bar far the best pizza we've had since moving to Florida. I highly recommend the meat lovers and bbq chicken pizza. The prices are decent considering the size of the slices. Staff was friendly and we didn't wait long for our order. Even though it was packed we were still able to find a table. I can't wait to go back
Parth Kotecha
Great New York style pizza slices!
We just needed one to be amazed by the great taste and flavours!
Cannot wait to try some other flavours soon!
Quentin Brown
Best pizza I've ever had! Atmosphere, and service were amazing and the slices were huge! Absolutely will be becoming a regular here
Joe Pezzulich
Legendary pizza place in downtown Tampa. Buy a whole pizza or by the slice. New York style. Self order kiosks are very convenient. Great pizza!
Maxine Coimin
The pizza was okay, I've been to NY and I wouldn't say it's on the same level but it's decent pizza. The girl behind the counter didn't have a mask which was kinda disturbing. They had a good variety of pizzas to choose from to.
Asim Soofi
One of the best NY style pizza I've had not only in Florida but along the east coast south of New York. Excellent thin crust, cheese, and sauce. Get the 20"...perfect portion slices.
Demetria S. Lane
Their pizza is absolutely scrumptious! It literally tastes like NY Pizza (I am from New Jersey so I had NY & NJ pizza often). 🍕 My husband & I are obsessed with their pizza! My only correction is they need more seats for their take out clientele.
Stephanie Saint-vil
The service was fast and the food was delicious and filling. Definitely will be back.
Joe Miller
The pizza certainly is up there with the best, based on my taste preferences. No huge excess oil, base was thin and crispy, toppings tasted fresh and sumptuous.
Then comes the service, took me about 15-20 mins from order to box being placed in my hands, Thursday evening 7.30pm prime time, not bad at all.
To sit there and watch the E&S N.Y pizza team at work was fascinating, in that time they easily served 50+ people.
Made the time fly by watching the impressive display, of the staff replicating an well oiled machine.
Definitely looking forward to going back and havimg another pizza there again in the future.
Eboni Armstrong
I visited New York back in 2010. I have not had a slice even CLOSE enough to their pizza…until today. I had a slice of pepperoni! It was AMAZING! I WILL be back!!!!
Matthew Kurto
Amazing pizza and wings!!! Real NY style for sure!!!
Drew Fulmer
Was in town for a conference today. Swung by for lunch. Got two slices. Pep and chicken parm. They were cooked in 3 mins. Place was packed. Couldn’t believe how fast they were. Pizza was INCREDIBLE. Can’t wait to go back. Great job.
Mack Vismusic
If you like oil saturated thin crust pizza, this where you want to be. Nothing special, but tasty. The excellent service saved this place for me and fam. Not especially maintained and a little dingy for the area.
Monica 8820
Food was absolutely delicious. Lived up to its reviews. We ordered meat lovers pizza pepperoni pizza and garlic knots. And I will add the restrooms were 🧼 clean. And customer service was on point ( please hit like if you find my photos helpful ) …
Jose Fababa
Great food! Always super busy, does taste like authentic NY pizza. Close to many other venues. Decent prices. There's and Italian gelato shop inside that also pretty good. Can be a bit disorganized. Lots of seating, but usually fairly hard to find. Lots of tasty options. Must try the buffalo chicken pizza.
Craig Reynolds
Recently moved to Tampa and the obligatory thing to do after moving is order a pizza! I ordered from here and the pizza slices were definitely New York style and huge. The taste was exquisite and I can’t wait to order from here again! If you’re looking for great pizza, make sure you order from here!
P Pongvirat
I’ve never seen a pizza this size with price like this before. The dough is not sweet like many chain pizza restaurant. The sauce is great. The staff was great and fast. You can enjoy NY-style pizza with very cheap price. Try once if you’re in Tampa and don’t want to be regret after leaving
T.L. Frank
it wasn’t horrible, not my kind of pizza. If you’ve had Dina’s pizza in Cleveland, Ohio that’s my style of oizza
false
Pizza was outstanding for a decent price. You go there for the pizza not the experience lol the place is decently dirty. We sat in the outside seating which was quite the experience as we were badgered by homeless and teens smoking weed.
Trevonne Thomas
Man!!!! Listen to this. The pizza was amazing. I had buffalo chicken(very spicy), the lasagna pizza which was my favorite, cheese, and BBQ chicken and bacon. The food was great and the service as well. The location, you’ll have to pay for parking or search for hours for a decent spot. Prices are reasonable. One or two slices will do the job i promise. I can say i wish the pizza was a little more hot. Didn’t seem to have that fresh out of the oven feel when i got them. BEST PIZZA IN TAMPA. Hands down.
Brad Decker
Soooo good! And super fast! You won't be disappointed in this NY pizza joint located in FL!
Val Gillilan
So good! We were visiting from Texas and decided to grab a slice on our way out of town. Glad we did, it was delicious! Wish we would have eaten here earlier in our trip because I could have tried all the other slices they had. I only had room for 1 slice, the white with spinach. It was wonderful! My daughter had the tomato basil and she devoured it. Other slices we ordered were Pepperoni and Supreme. All were enjoyed!
Shawn Larsen
Fav pizza in Tampa, I try and come as often as I’m in town. Great price too!!
X B
Wide variety of pizzas, quick and organized service despite the volume of customers. I ordered a Bianca, a Hawaiian, they had generous amount of topping, the sauce was just enough to create some contrast. They were worth the price. You can sit in or outdoor the choice is yours.
Scott Stanley
Good food. Reasonable with the price. Very busy on a Saturday night. I would definitely eat her again.
David Orlando
The best pizza in downtown tampa, and it’s no questions asked. My parents love them, my siblings love them, and now my family will only eat pizza from Eddie and Sam’s.
Haus
This is our go to pizza place. It is ALWAYS busy and that should tell you something. They have the closest N.Y. style pizza in Tampa. You can easily fold the huge slices just like when in N.Y. They have a variety of pizza's and sale by the slice as well. Have been here several times and have never had a bad slice or pizza. Yummy😋
Sam B
Great spot for some good NY style pizza. The individual slices are huge and well priced, 2 was enough for me and I normally eat a lot! Also open late for an end of the night feast! I would thoroughly recommend checking this place out! 🍕 …
Neil Korotash
Tough to pin this down but ended up giving it 3 stars as there was lots of good and lots of bad. First, the good: It's a unique place with lots of character, lots of options, some tasty combinations flavour wise (we had buffalo chicken pizza and the supreme), we received our food quickly, and it was good value. On the down side, we didn't have great service. The fellow we ordered from had his headphones in and took our order but didn't explain where we had to pay. Then, when we tried to fill up our fountain drinks and both machines were out of pepsi, the staff member we informed looks annoyed - like we were inconveniencing her. I said the pizza flavours were good, but the slices we ordered had crispy crusts. I always finish my crusts on all kinds of pizza, but couldn't eat these as they were hard, crunch, and not too tasty. Lastly, the garbage! We ordered 5 slices total and they gave them to us in 5 boxes instead of using paper plates. Boxes & garbage were piled up outside the restaurant litering the streets etc. Restaurant should take responsibility for the outside garbage as well and reconsider the amount of waste that they are generating!
Helen Thomas
Crusty and delish! Just the right amount of grease and cheese...yumm. Recommend classic cheese or pepperoni, very much NY pizza! Lots of individual slices to choose from and a Tampa FAV...very busy! Gargantuan pizza boxes were also rolling out of there...we were told each box holds 28‐32 pieces per box!😮 Definitely will return when visiting Tampa again😊
Colorado Home Roofing
This place has awesome food! I order pizza and wings. Cheese pizza, Supreme Pizza, pepperoni pizza white pizza.
Employees are friendly very helpful. It gets busy at lunch and dinner times to dine in but worth it. Delivery is quick. Top notch place. True New York Pizza. I grew up in New York. So I know pizza, it's my favorite food. Enjoy!
Anthony Pranio
Went to visit to this pizzeria because being a Brooklyn guy, I was obligated to. I chosed a regular thin crust slice. At first sight, it looked like a NYC slice. But when I picked it up, it was extremely greasy and had a major flop to it. And as of the taste, it was ok, not great. Most of the taste came from the grease and nothing else.
Dave v
Pizza was amazing and top notch flavors. Takes me back to when I went to N.Y. 5 stars all the way.
Dylan Morin
Pizza is GREAT. I mean like I drive 25 minutes from Clearwater to come eat here great. I’ve tried alot of NY style pizza and none come close. Crust is perfect and the portions/slices are generous. Dined in and got my pie in under 5 minutes. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Watchman
Really busy pizza shop. Lots of by the slice choices that are so numerous I could not even count them all. Even with a line of customers it only took maybe 7 minutes to order and get my order. They do not sell alcohol. Outdoor dinning as well as indoor Sunni g to choose from. Slices are a reasonable price for the size.
Daniela Lao
This is our preferred pizza place in Tampa. Haven't found a NY style pizza place in Tampa that comes close to the real thing. I was born in NY and YES it's the water...unless you have that NY water you can only come close genuine tasting NY pizza.
I typically get 2 cheese and the hubs gets a cheese and a meat lover's. We've also had the white and sicilian pizza otherwise known as Neapolitan pizza (its square, almost like a deep dish but better).
Anything we've had has been tasty, well made, and actually reasonably priced. And yes, they sell by the slice.
Service is always good, it's always clean, and the attached gelato place is convenient and offers even more space.
More great things: There are around 3 or 4 TVs that play various sports channels and the Coke Freestyle machines are great. Plus the water is free and taste great. If you're in the area and craving lunch or a late night pizza, I definitely recommend this place. We actually drive from Lutz even if we're not in the area and make a day out of it by walking the Riverwalk after or heading to the aquarium (we have passes). Note: kids like it too; I see parents with their kids here all the time. I also bought my 7 and 8 year old nieces and they really liked it. One slice is pretty big so you may have to cut it in two for little kids though.
Brian Breeding
So the pizza is good. Not the best I’ve ever had but definitely really good. Seems to me like theres a little too much seasoning in the sauce. Its fairly priced as well and they have a wide variety of pizzas. Just sucks that it is in downtown where it’s miserable to park.
Robert Gledhill
By far the best New York style pizza we've had in the state of Florida so far
Ashley Enwright
We tried three slices. The lasagna the white pizza and the Brooklyn bridge. The lasagna pizza was our favorite. nice family atmosphere we were able to catch the end of a game. After the pizza picked up a few cookies from the attached gelato store. A must-try.
Tim Delaney
My favorite pizza in tampa. Love how they do it by the slice. Buffalo chicken is my favorite. Fast and reasonable prices. This pizza truly reminds me of growing up in New York.
Brian M
Best, new York pizza in Tampa Bay! If you are partying anywhere near downtown or Curtis Hixon Park make sure to stop here!! Great desserts and ice cream too!
Fonzo Afre (Mr. Real Reviews)
Quick, fast and the quality is on point. An authentic pizzeria experience smack in the middle of downtown Tampa. Great location. Clean front of house. Even better service and selection. Can't go wrong.
Kevin Cormier
Place was great lines were long but they still got us out of there with our way to big 28 inch pizza. Pizza was great no complaints at all. The service was amazing. Drunk customer was annoying complaining about waiting for her pizza for an hour and the employee owned her by showing the lady her recipt with the time of order and the time it was now and she had only been waiting 15 minutes. Awesome job got a show with great food. We will definitely be back but I'll tell you what it won't be for the 28 inch, not unless we got another family with us. Great job yall.

Best Pizza in the Tampa area for sure. Their eggplant pizza and cheese pizza and tomato basil was great. Favorite Pizza spot in the area. (Water comes straight from NYC)
MIKE DISCO CYCLOMANIACS
This is the best pizza shop in town in my book. So many different pizzas to choose from. This is the only pizza shop that has a 28 inch pizza if you can eat it. The slices are all so big and very tasty. I've been going here for years and this place stays busy and why not when the slices are always fresh. Recently the owner Mike who is a friend of mine just renovated the place to make it easier for customers to get there food quicker. He takes care of his employees which on turn produces dynamite food and service. If you want great pizza and atmosphere of big city life then come on down to Eddie And Sam's. You won't be disappointed.🌀
Keith Landers
Went downtown to try this tonight. Place was crowded and staff was indignant. But we ordered a Togo pizza and it was very, very, very good
This is truly great NY pizza
Order it Togo and enjoy. They also have ton of slices to go
We got a Medium 20’ with Sausage and pepperoni and it was 23.99. It is huge. Wife and I could not finish half of it. They make one size larger that is even bigger
Blinkachu05
Great place to get a quick bite of some quality New York pizza. Service is quick, and the location is convenient if you're downtown for an event or even just hanging around.
Donald V. Stokely Jr.
I came all the way from the sticks to get a Sicilian only to get beat out by some undeserving kid. Nonetheless, they are still hands down with no compare the best pizza in town.
Daryl Hietpas
Prices have increased (like many places) and dine in atmosphere is ok but great variety of slices that are quickly toasted to solve your hunger while downtown.
Erin Watts
You haven’t had pizza until you’ve had Eddie and Sams pizza! They have every topping combination you could have ever dreamed of, and it’s authentically delicious! (Did I mention they import NY Water?) prepare yourself for a HUGE slice of yummy pizza, and don’t be scared away by the $4 a slice. ITS. WORTH. IT!!
Przemek Jaglowski
Centrally located downtown, Eddie & Sam’s serves some of the best pizza in town. The garlic knots are absolutely huge and the Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza is to die for.
If you come on a Friday or Saturday night don’t let the line intimidate you - these guys move QUICK.
Robin Davis
Average pizza place with a cult following. Closed 2 days a week so you know they're printing money. Good for them.
Kyle Veatch
Very good New York style pizza. The slices and pies are huge and everything was nice inside. I always like places that have newer technology to order and they have tap to pay. Only downside might be there is limited seating inside.
Josh Carden
I absolutely love this place. Amazing pizza and amazing garlic knots. I HIGHLY Recommend Eddie and Sam’s. They have plenty of Choices so there is something for everyone. They also have dessert which is a little pricy but definitely worth it.
Robert Yee
Great New York Pizza. If you've ever been to a New York Pizza Parlor, Eddie & Sam's will be very familiar to you. Large variety of Pizza by the slice or whole pies & never a very long wait even during the busiest of times. Their pizza dough is made with water imported from New York & that certainly helps to make their pizza taste authentic. I'm a native New Yorker, so I know New York Pizza
Desiree Gladdue Simeon
Best pizza in Tampa! We order it every week, just the best.
Sandy Marsh
It was okay and worth a stop if in the area but I wouldn't make it a destination. I feel like it used to be better when they weren't as corporate. Flavor was a bit lacking from what I remember.
cacrt camlmrt
So many choices!
I had the meat lovers and a slice of lasagna pizza, both were great. Topping were heavy and very filling. The crust was flakey with a hint of sweet.
My wife and son had the pepperoni and a slice of cheese
Give it a try well worth the hassle to find a place to park.
Jamond Alexandre
Gotta love the pizza by the slice here! They got all kinds of toppings and pizzas and they have different types and things like calzones and more! It tastes great and the prices are pretty reasonable, great place to stop and eat after hanging downtown.👌🏿 …
Kimmy Nvan
Amazing thin crust pizza place! We went on a Saturday and love their array of pizza by the slice options! Plus the concept minimize the wait. Can't wait to try them all!
Addey
This place is by far the absolute best pizza I have had hands down. The slices are amazing!! Great prices too!
Ella Ackerman
I crave their pizza daily. Wish they were open everyday. 4 stars - haha. I’m gluten free and it’s been great. Please open monday and tuesday.
Don Dejong
It says a lot that any time you eat here it’s always packed, yet service is always very quick. The ONLY issue I can find with Eddie and Sams is the amount of grease. It’s a little more than I’m comfortable with, but that could just be my personal preference. If you hold the slice up, the grease never stops. The taste is exceptional though!
Z
Best white pie in town, hands down. Their crust is amazing and I NEVER eat pizza crust, blasphemy? Not here, they changed my mind!! I LOVE Eddie & Sam's blend of cheese and bread. I order at least 3X a month for delivery or stop in on my break from work. SO. GOOD. Check them out!
Frank Cali
Having grown up in NYC (actually Brooklyn), I have to agree this pizza is authentic NY pizza. Slices are huge and a great location.
Simonne Valdez
This pizza was not even the largest size. Went with some family and everyone’s appetite was satisfied. Pizza, great! Staff, great! Environment.. if you’ve ever been to a little pizza shop in New York, that’s what it felt like however much less crowded of course. Eddie and Sams have ALL TYPES OF PIZZA. I personally like pizza with broccoli 🥦 (am I the only one?) and they have more than one broc options. Yum! If you’re downtown Tampa and casually taking a stroll, stop by Eddie and Sams for a slice or the whole pie! They are located right by Curtis Hixon. Hard to miss. Enjoy!
Mulla
Great pizza, especially the regular cheese. Huge portions. Crowded though so we got the box and went to Curtis H park across the street.
Daniel St.Pierre
SPOT ON! I heard that Eddie And Sam's was among the best pizza joints in Tampa so today as I was driving through the city, i stopped by Eddie And Sam's for a slice of cheese pie...
And what a slice it was!
Although the crust is a little on the pale side for my taste, the perfect blend of New York water, Italian tomatoes and cheese made for an awesome slice of cheese pizza.
Parking is a bit tricky being that Eddie And Sam's is located smack downtown Tampa.
Needless to say we'll be back to Eddie And Sam's when we're looking for top notch pizza downtown Tampa.
To him who has an ear, let him hear. #TGBATG
Corey Laisy
Pizza is great as always good price. Really could use some fixing/ updating inside. But over all a good place.
Todd Jones
Busy place! They pump out delicious pizza like a well oiled machine. So delicious!!! $27.76 for 20” pepperoni and bacon.
combat veteran
Pizza is absolutely delicious. Real NY water to make the pizza. You can taste the difference.
Michael Travis
Best NY style pizza I've ever had. Employee Georgie should get Employee of the month!
Aruj Chawla
This pizza is huge! I included the 13 inch MacBook for reference. The box barely fit through doorways. I have to say I was very impressed with the pizza. Delicious. The toppings to cheese to sauce ratio was really good an pretty consistent through such a large pizza. This would be a party pleaser. Warning this box will not fit in human sized fridges but well worth it. One star down bc the garlic knots were a bit plain on the inside. The impromptu garlic bread on the right was delicious. Overall great experience would whole heartedly recommend.
Nethan Watkins
Awesome pizza and very fast by the slice
Ginna Marcela Rincon
The best pizza that I have tried ever in Tampa Bay! They have many delicious options 😋 my first time here and ofcourse I'll be back soon …
Jose R. Vergara De Lima
The pizza is really delicious but the place is messy and dirty. By the time you manage to find a place to sit you are surrounded by boxes and other supplies.
Bob Russo
It's a good place to eat if you like authentic New York Pizza and Deals they have are excellent
Nicole S
I was skeptical on New York Style pizza in Florida, but this placed was very tasty. Parking can be a bit difficult but definitely worth the trouble. I really liked the self-order kiosk, it made things go super quick. They offer a good variety of pizza by the slice - I really enjoyed their white pizza and pepperoni. I did takeout and it traveled very well. The small boxes were flimsy so just make sure to hold from the bottom. They were well staffed for a Sunday early evening and very friendly. They were quick to check on my order when they saw me standing and waiting. Pretty sure I was in & out within 10 minutes.
Ben Badger
Best pizza I’ve ever had. I make of point of stopping here every time I’m in Tampa.
Foxy 3737
If you enjoy white pizza they have the best pizza. Authentic new york pizzeria
Greg Carlile
I'm not quite sure if they still bring the water from NY to make their pizza but this place used to be my favorite pizza place around but it doesn't seem the same as it was before the Covid shut-downs in 2020. It's still good pizza but the last few times I've been, the pizza toppings were very light. And, given their prices compared to other privately-owned pizza places, I think you can find pizza that's just as good at a more reasonable price. If you're in the area, they're worth trying but I honestly, and sadly, won't go out of my way to get pizza from there anymore.
Lana LaFave
Best pizza in Tampa! Lots of options to choose from, lasgana pizza was absolutely delicious. Can't wait to try all of the options one slice at a time! This place also has gelato & canoli, can't wait to try those as well!
shane ketchum
Only been here twice, but both times it was great! Big NY style slices of pizza. Lots of great varieties to choose from. You can get little sides of parm, red pepper flakes, and marinara to go with it. The little extra touches are nice. It was super busy the first time I went but they still got everyone through the line efficiently, they know what they're doing! They have some tables outside to sit at or you can walk across the street and sit by the river looking across at Univ of Tampa.
Delicious pizza and fair price. You should definitely check them out!
Dave Cope
Great pizza spot in downtown Tampa. Walking distance to parks, shops and other places to eat. They have a large selection on their menu
Carlos T.
The pizza was really good. Service was good, though you do order from a kiosk. That was really a great feature. Easy to order. I would give it 5 stars had it not been for the cleanliness.
The back dining room was messy full of boxes and supplies. The bathroom was needs cleaning and the front dining area needs some serious TLC. The trios and walls are dirty.
Overall, the pizza was great but the dining experience was bad. I felt a little dirty and made me wonder if they’re not taking care of the dining room, are they taking care of the food prep area.
I hope they fix that soon.
Allison Maddox
So much to choose from! The Sicilian is really good also but I didn't get a photo of it!
Downie
I was recommended to this place and it was worth all the walking I had to do to get there. The service is great and the staff were kind. One of them even wrapped up the three remaining slices so I wouldn't just throw them away.
anthony carpenter
The food was great, the service was great as well. We ordered a whole pie and a couple of slices. The pizza came out quick cooked perfectly and the employees we also very attentive to our needs.
Mercedes J Sanchez
My son loves pizza 🍕 He can eat it every day. My hubby told me of this place where the pizza slices are bigger then the kids heads. Well ain't that the truth. I'm a New Yorker and this pizza is legit. Many options available.
Ms Opinionated
The pizza is amazing! It was busy but the service was quick. If you are craving some good NY style pizza this is the place to go however parking is a bit much. There is a parking lot right across the street from the restaurant but it was $15 dollars. There is parking you can pay for along the street but it was busy so I couldn't find a spot. Please be aware there is car patrol walking around checking license plates and making sure you aren't illegally parked. I saw several tickets being issued in the 20-30 mins I sat outside eating my pizza.
Jisoo
Hands down the best NYC pizza in Tampa. Affordable, big slices with premium toppings & taste
Rique L
It tastes like N.Y. It looks like N.Y. But falls short on the thin crust. New York pizza is not thin crust it’s hand tossed. Great neighborhood pizza though!
Debbie Donovan
Newly moved from the BX to Fl 2019 so you know I was going through withdrawals!!!! I drove 1 HR to the Pizza shop shown on Fox 13. When I tell you it was EVERTHING, IT WAS EVERYTHANG!! 2 slices left on the 14 inch pie.
Esteban Mendez
I have traveled around the globe just to explore pizzerias! I felt the heavens opening up when the slice from Eddie & Sam’s Pizza touched the tip of my tongue! The song by Johnnyswim, “Touching Heaven” started playing, and my hope for humanity was restored. Who would’ve known, what my heart was searching for, was beneath my nose the whole time! Thank you Lord Jesus for giving them the skills needed to master the art of a slice and thank you Eddie & Sam’s for being passionate about what you all do! I highly recommend to experience Heaven on Earth! 🔥
JP G
Simply put..The best Pizza in town! Try the Sicilian it's delicious!
Rick Dean
Average pizza slices at best. Okay price but this NJ boy is not impressed!
OctalChaos
Whooohoooo yea really good pizza and next door Gelato it pure perfection
Jim Darrell
Always grab a slice or two when I'm in town. Fast, friendly service and fresh slices ready to go any time of the day. There's a good reason this place is always busy!
Matt S
Best pizza in the Tampa Bay metro area and in my opinion, it's not even close. There's a few other good pizzerias in this area(Toby's Little Italy in St Pete/Pizza Haven in Brandon are 2 other good places that come to mind) but most are just average or not really good. Eddie and Sam's is on a different level than anything else I've had around here!
THOMAS WISNIEWSKI
I only had a slice of meat lovers and it was okay, they cut the pizza uneven so it was kinda small. I'm sure the guy behind me was happier because his wasn't lol. I doubt it was worth the 4 dollars and I'll stick with little Italy's.
Steve B
I was in Tampa for 4 days. I ate here for lunch for 3 days. The pizza is out of this world! I never waited longer than 2 minutes for 2 slices. They are that fast. They have a nice little Gelato bar as well to satisfy your sweet tooth. I had their New York Style Cheesecake. Awesome!
Jonathan C
Chicken Bacon, BBQ pizza. Oh My God!!! That shiz-nit was on fire 🔥 spent my very last dollar here today and it was worth it. Thank you Eddie & Sam
Soror Stacey Francis
Great tasting NY pizza in Tampa, FL. Just have to park where it’s affordable. 😀 …
Alicia Manning
The BEST NY style pizza in the Tampa Bay Area! Hands down! 😋 Absolutely delicious! …
Nathan Sejour
Closest thing to NY Pizza since I've moved here. It's worth the trip downtown.
Guy Kramarski
Best pizza in Tampa. Closest thing you'll get to NY! Hands down!
SCOTT LEVY
Four words: real New York pizza. Everyone claims it, but these guys deliver it. Closest to the real thing I have ever had in Florida. Get the giant slices. Bigger than your head.
Leo Estevez
Hands down the best Pizza I have had in Tampa.. if you are from NY and know pizza you would definitely need to make a stop here.
Tara Rogers
Looked and looked for the best NY pizza in Tampa and finally found it!! I say NY Pizza instead of NY 'style' because this is the real thing! Perfect crust..hands down the best NY Pizza I've had outside of the Big Apple!! Will return every time I'm in the Tampa area!!
Allen Whisler
Pizza was good, wings were better. I grabbed food for take out and it was ready when promised. The staff is helpful and friendly
Levele
(6/822 visit) Had the chicken parm and white pizza slices. No complaints. Everything tasted great. The chicken was tender and the parm complemented it well. The white pizza was a blend of different white cheeses. That was delicious. Will be back to try their other menu items.
Diana E.
Delicious cheesy good pizza. They get water from NY to make their pizza. Service is fast and always friendly.
Sir JeTs
Every time I've come and ordered a pie from this establishment, I was never let down. The quality was always on point with my pizza. Will drive across the county just for this the pies/pizzas here.
Kathy Cicchini
Great authentic NY pizza to go to downtown Tampa and they allow skates 2. Great place and great service...
Javier Rodriguez
The pizza just like home. I recommend anyone thats from up north stop by and try a piece of home. Thanks guys
Utica Craig
I love pizza so the size and taste of these slices I had were absolutely amazing. I can't wait to take my boyfriend here. Pepperoni & Bacon is to die for!
Yochanan Bey
Pretty good pizza...not necessarily NY Style good try though.
Jordy
First visit def makes me wanna try more items. Had the eggplant parm pizza. Soooooo delicious
J. Patel
As a New Yorker. This place is awesome! Amazing pizza place in Downtown Tampa. Go Yankees!
Joshua Bullard
After eating here I went out side and a car had flipped over with someone trapped inside, I proceeded to flip the car over and save the person trapped. I'm not sure if the pizza gave me the strength to do this but I'm also not not sure the pizza gave me the strength to do this.
Michael H (Hamp)
This was my first visit to Eddie and Sam's. The restaurant was packed but orders moved faster than I expected they would. We ordered to eat-in. The Sicilian slice was fantastic. The regular slice and mozzarella sticks were good. I'd definitely come back on my next Tampa visit.
Yash Pandit
variety of pizzas. chik parm, lasagna, white sauce, etc. iconic in tampa!
John A
Great place for New York style thin crust pizza. Huge selections of slice of pizza. Two slices should fill up most hungry person. Try new or any off the wall combo pizza. I would defiantly eat here if you are in the mood for pizza. Lots of indoor and outside seating available.
Jordan W.
I just visited St. Pete from Nashville and I will have to come back to visit every chance I get so I can eat this pizza more! Very good pizza! You can get whole pies or by the slice. The crust holds up to a good fold and the sauce is amazing!
Brian Egbert
Loved the assortment of flavors! They all looked good the 3 I picked were all delicious!
Julie Marmolejos
Being from the Bronx NY, I know what NY pizza tastes like. This is as close to home as you can get. Thank you Eddie and Sams for brining home to Tampa.
Adam Camara
Great pizza and service... The young people working here made me feel like a king
Rudy Gonzalez
Sat out on the sidewalk on kinda dirty tables with not enough chairs and homeless folks hawking our food. E&S just trying to give it a true NY style, I guess 🤷🏻
Tam Huynh
Best pizza in town, pretty close to to neighborhood Brooklyn pizzeria, it do bring back memory.
Brianna Sukop
Literally the best pizza you will have in your life! 🍕 …
Shelby Copans
It was kinda hectic when we got in there, it wasn't really clear where to go to get drink cups. It is wicked cool that you can order in these tablets, even though they were extremely busy there was basically no wait time. The pizza was a greasy, cheesey, New York style pizza, delicious!
Kenneth J
Walked here after waiting over 45 minutes at a Mediterranean restaurant down the street. Glad I did because the pizza and wings were delicious. Probably the best NY style pizza I've had. The wings were just as delicious, great flavor and nice and crispy skin. My only gripe is that if you are a perfectionist the artwork will drive you nuts because it seems whoever put them up didn't spend too much time making sure they're all level or hung straight, lol.
Miguel Huertas
Great NY tasting pizza. Always best NY pizza.
Shaun Sanders
INCREDIBLE! Extremely tasty, family loved everything. Pizza, salad, cheese sticks. Get the 28" pizza, well worth it to have left overs.
Efrain Brito
This is an excellent Pizza 🍕 place ever they remodeled the Restaurant and now we can move and sit down better. This is an real New York Pizza taste and they serve by Slice or Complete size. I’m always recommend this restaurant 100% because is an excellent place by the price and taste …
Peter Pham
Best pizza in town 10/10. Fast service and good prices.
Greg D
Eddie and Sam's has changed over the last 10 years. The place is busy and full of staff. The pie is ok. For me, the crust was too crispy and dry. The toppings were thin and not nearly enough sauce or cheese.
What was once the place for pizza in Tampa is no more. Goodbye old friend, I will always remember what we had.
Franco Colomba
First of all I love pizza like I love my mother so I take every bite crucial to this review.
Pizza was a solid 6/10 which is somewhere between good - and could be better - but not the worst I've had.
I get it they use NY water but that shouldn't solemnly be the secret to a successful pizza recipe.. The crust was crunchy but had no flavor. The sauce also was missing that pizza flavor that usually accompanies dank pizza rivals found in other pizza famous places.
Last but not least the one thing I will say that's on a positive note is the various selections of toppings at this pizza place is good to see. Not many other pizza places which are famous for superb flavor have many selections so I give my hat too them for this!
Overall definitely not a bad pizza and enjoyable but ive had muuuuuch better and not a pizza that'll make me remember the place nor does it have that "wow" factor.
PS. The line to ordering can be messy and hard to tell where the line begins. Also employees should monitor the drinks more.. I ordered orchata and it was empty. Took 15 mins for them to replace it which by the time they did so i was already done with my slices 🙃
PSS The other room had a motorcycle in it and was unorganized and just felt like a garage and not a welcoming experience for being in such a prolific spot in downtown Tampa.
Jacob Stiller
I’ve never seen such a variety of pizza by the slice, this place should be a standard!
Britny Minturn
The variety of different types of pizza was great, but the pizza itself was a bit greasy. While having a ton of people on staff, the experience was very much "figure it out" and the people behind the counter seemed a little annoyed if you attempted to ask them questions, due to interrupting their personal conversations.
Tony Santiago
Best pizza ever!! Lasagna pizza, chicken Parm pizza highly recommend. You can't go wrong with any of their slices. Huge NY style slices.
Nicholas Morgan
Great place! Lots of different flavors/toppings to offer, nice employees and great drink selection!
Highly recommend :)
They also have a lot of indoor and some outdoor seating. Great location downtown and an attached gelateria.
Jeremy Tungate
We travel down from Indiana yearly and this is a must stop!!! They're pizza is amazing with all the choices you'd want and quality service!! Thanks Eddie & Sam's. Look forward to next time!!!
Derrick Urgent
Forget all the rest of the "NY Style Pizza" places you've seen in the bay area. THIS is what New York pizza looks & tastes like. Ordered a few times and the orders have always been ready on time despite the many orders they have to fulfill. The only negative is attempting to phone in an order. The phone number is useless as it sends you into an endless loop.
Tricia C
Great New York style pizza. This place has been discovered as the place to get pizza in downtown Tampa. Owner Tom is from the NYC metro area and brought that wonder crust thin crust pizza to Tampa since 1998. Gianormous slices, pizza is very authentically delicious. I would have given them a 5 star but on a Sunday they were crowded and only had one bathroom working.
Yuselis De Armas
A little small, but good pizza and fast service.
Twitterpatted
Ordered chicken Parmigiana wrapped in dough and it was GREAT. Also cheese pizza with anchovies and loved it. If your in downtown Tampa give them a try.
Jennifer Moore
People come here for the pizza which is the best NY style in the Tampa Bay area.
Rahul Agarwal
Authentic NY style pizza! The slices are massive and they have a ton of different types. Make sure to get the lasagna pizza!
Tyler Brady
Pizza was great! 🍕🍕🍕 happy my friend recommended the place to me. …
Derek Wells
Excellent place. Fast (it was busy) every worker had a positive attitude. The pizza was awesome as well. Definitely will come back if we are in Tampa again. Great job Everyone!
Tammi Crowder
Very good pizza! This was my first time here. My son brought my husband and I here. It was a very busy place even though it was after a typical lunch period. My only complaint was the small eat in area. We found a table outside but many people had to take theirs to go because there was no seating available. With the business they do, seems like they could get a bigger place. Anyway, great pizza!
Manny Vazquez
The Pizza here is amazing. Taste just like New York pizza! Every time I in Tampa this is a must stop.
Andrew Ferguson
Best pizza in Tampa. Decent, fast , well organized service. Can be a little intimidating your first time, but you'll catch on quickly. Well worth it. Highly recommend this spot.
BalancedLion Maiden
I forgot to get a pic because it was so good! I ordered a supreme pizza slice with 6 med buffalo wings, it was the best! Definitely worth a visit if you’re in downtown Tampa and craving authentic pizza!
Harry Brownfield
If you're a recently transplanted or visiting Northeasterner, this is the most viable pizza in the downtown area. Not quite to the level of coal-fired New Haven Pizza but definitely on par with "pretty good" New York pizza. I mean this as a complement, there are entire states without a pizza that rises to this level.
The huge size is a hilarious novelty but doesn't cook as evenly- get the middle size for the best out of this pizza. Also, not a lot of convenient pickup street parking spots, plan accordingly.
Amol Fish
Great pizza. Had a friend visiting from nyc with me who validated the new york cred. Unfortunately the fire department cleared out the block due to a fire around the corner in a chinese resturant.
Tiffany Hollie
They have a variety of pizzas, speedy service and the pizza slices are huge!! Came from out town and so glad I stopped here! Will come back again
R W
Totally disappointed the first time I had this pizza it was so delicious. This time it was oily tasteless mess.
Jasmine Vega
Probably the best pizza in Florida for a place to go to like NY pizza!!
Andrew Ingeneri Jr
Best pizza in the state. Im here every weekend.
Nicholas Null
Delicious and quick pizza for lunch if you're working downtown Tampa/ Channelside area. My favorite pizza shop in the area.
Giosia “Gio” Mogavero
I loved this. Being from up north, this is what I miss. Crispy delicious pizza. You will love it!
Santiago Gonzalez
Great, thin, crisp crust and flavors on point. Solid pizza place
Black Hydra
The pizza was mid but I loved it, the design used in Italy was copied wonderfully in these pizzas and while it didn't hold up to the TREMENDOUS hype by most people that talked about this Pizzeria
I like the professionalism the workers here showed me and by their professionalism I can tell why people LOVE this place and come in daily
The employees are amazing at their work and their ability to communicate with others is top notch
Amazing experience and I will share this place with friends and family
Brian Roders
Love this place! Really good pizza great environment
Ak Strong
So many selections of Good Pizza & Topping combinations it's hard to say where to start. It was very good and I definitely went back 2 more times while working Superbowl LV! I never Ever seen a Pizza Place like this Before
Luz D Ramírez Hernández
A transplanted New Jerseyan (just like me) recommended Eddie and Sam's N.Y. Pizza to me. It's everything she said it was and more! It is truly the best pizza I have ever had outside of the New York metropolitan area! Eating the slices of pizza I was transported back to New York/New Jersey where pizza is king and done to perfection. My brothers raved about the place and stuffed themselves! I even ordered a cheese calzone to eat at home, and it, too, was heavenly. Eddie and Sam's N.Y. Pizza is now in my GPS for return trips!!
Rocio interiano
The price is reasonable and the pizza is amazing, buy it by the slice. They make their though with New York water to get the same taste.
Jason Petry
Some of the best pizza I have ever had. When another local restaurant did not work out for us we went here and couldn't have been more happier. Hot wings were awesome. Pizza was fantastic. Definitely recommend!
Regan Hershey
Sicilian, white, and plain cheese are all incredible. Highly recommend.
Luke Weaver
Even though I don't eat pizza anymore 😩 by the looks of this long line the cat is out of the bag! 😸
There's good reason why people line up for a slice. I was still out in 10 minutes even with the super line. …
Lisa Kothe
Great pizza! All kinds from white, to eggplant, to lasagna pizza.
Anthony Robertson
Amazing Pizza One of if not The best in Tampa. Coke Mix machines are a definite plus although I would have expected Pepsi from a NY Pizza place. Lol
Edward Gutierrez
Bada Bing bada boom...fuggetaboutit ,it's been there so long because it's good pizza. The people that work here are workers..been enjoying their food since 2002.
Jason Padua
My first visit was yesterday and I was very impressed! The touch screen ordering was very user friendly and efficient. My Chicken Parm pizza slice was huge and very tasty. We were all very happy with our pizza! I would definitely return to this restaurant next time I am in downtown Tampa!
austin g
Very good pizza. I really enjoyed the chicken bacon ranch one.
Arthur Duclos
Best pizza I had since I left Brooklyn in 1993 my son recommended it to me he was right it's delicious
Kodie Blackhook
Ok so just stopped here today. Im from NY and am usually skeptical about people who claim NY pizza. However this was it. I mean it was like thin crust NY pizza, but thats what it taste like. The pizza itself was a job well done. The crust tasted like home to me, and they used the good topping such as the old world style pepperoni. The cheese wasnt quite right for NY style, was kinda stringy unlike the stuff they use in NYC but it was good either way. The anticipation of consuming evry last delicious hot bite of salty spicy pepperoni and grease filled goodness, had me biting into before it could even cool. There service was spot on as well, the staff were helpfull and friendly and the it was fast service, so remember to drop a lil something in the tip jar for these good folks. I gave it 4 stars but i wish i could rate it 4.5 stars cause it is what the place deserves. If u find yourself downtown tampa, grab urself a slice and soda you will not regret it.
John Gulla
Excellent NY Style pizza with a very tasty crust. They have many by the slice flavors and all are delicious. Great family atmosphere as well. I always enjoy going here.
Rodney Hernandez
Was worth the walk. All ingredients were fresh , and the crust was authentic New York. If you like a tasty pie, look no further, Eddie and Sam has got your number. I will be back again!
David Waszmer
This is one of my favorite pizza parlors in all of Florida. You know everything at the restaurant is going to be great when a plain cheese slice is as great as it is here. If you're downtown, definitely check out Eddie and Sam's.
Shady Oasis
Best pizza in Tampa. Just like up north.
Victoria Goldrick
This is the best pizza in Tampa Bay. If you're from the northeast, and are looking for good NY-style pizza, this is THE place.
Michelle Mullis
Amazing pizza. Fast and friendly staff.

As a kid from the Bronx who struggles To find quality pizza. This establishment hits the mark. I had a pepperoni pizza. A white with spinach a chicken Alfredo and a pepperoni with sausage and they were all amazing!
Franklin Smith
This is some of the best pizza I've ever had!

Michael Triana
Eddie and Sam's never disappoints, last night we snuck in 10 minutes before closing time and they treated us with the best customer service. All smiles, great pizza, I've been coming here for years, and will continue to do so!

I don't live in Tampa but EVERY single time I visit the area I have to stop here. I'm a vegetarian so finding a vegetarian pizza 🍕that you actually can stand is a struggle, sometimes.
That's not the case here, all of their ingredients taste fresh, the crust is always made to perfection, and the customer service is phenomenal. A place like this just makes you want to keep coming back!
Thanks for being such a great place to eat at whenever I come to town.

This pizza was amazing. I'm from NY and pizza in Florida well let's just say I finally found 🍕 PIZZA. This will be my place to go. The staff was friendly and the facility was very clean. I'm a very satisfied customer. …

Not impressed! Their cheese slices are some of the worst in Tampa recently..super dry like cardboard for at least the past two times I have been here. If you order from here, do not order plain cheese..get something different with toppings. The chicken parm pizza was interesting at least, but it is scary if you cannot get the plain pizza right. So weird since they have so many loyal fans. I also tried medium garlic wings on my last visit...a little pricey, but they went SUPER heavy on the garlic. I didn't mind it, but it would choke a vampire for sure! In the end, I would rather go to Ybor and eat at NYC for a slice...larger, cheaper, and the quality is consistent. I would still eat here, but it is just not amazing, to me, like everyone raves about.
Kristen Tilrico
Great za, awesome crust. White pizza is the best in town.
Alexandra Charabieh
Ive never ordered from the menu but if we're downtown in the area I take my kids for pizza- they have a huge selection of legit nyc (size and taste) pizza slices readily available they heat up and we eat in or take to go. I always get the eggplant parmigiana pizza ! Best pizza in the area for sure.
Richard Holsten
One of the best pizza restaurants in the area... I don't live close... But every time I'm nearby I stop for a pie!
candace S
Stefano's Gelato is here as well. Best toasted coconut Gelato...I sampled a few options and it was hard to choose just one.
Daddy Daft
Some of the best pizza I have ever had
Bill Thane
This place is absolutely rocking. We visited on a recent Sunday and although it was extremely crowded, we ordered and had our take out order in twenty minutes. The ability to produce excellent food so quickly is impressive.
odali maury
I love the pizza. The best crust and many toppings. Very nice staff but the place is a little dingy. The reason I don’t go often is finding parking Downtown is a pain. Once I had to pay $11 for parking across the street. If they had another location in Tampa other than downtown we would go all the time. I definitely recommend everyone try it even if it’s only once
Tonja Breeding
It’s not the best pizza I have ever had but it is good. The staff was very friendly and we got our pizza pretty quick. Their location sucks and parking is horrible but still good pizza.
Dawn Ruelo
Their pizza is so delish!! This is the chicken parmesan pizza!!! It's a must try if you love chicken parmesan!!
Suzie Urbaez
If you are in the Tampa area this sis great place to stop for pizza. Excellent New York pizza. The taste is on the water they use straight from New York. 👍🏻
Glenn Christiansen
The pizza was absolutely delicious and is a true New York style. I love the crust, just the right crispness and thickness. My only complaint would be the cleanliness of the bathrooms and dining area.
Ashley Ebanks
I don't leave reviews often but you deserve one... lightning fast service on the pizza side and your pizza takes me back to my childhood in New Jersey! The lasagna pizza is amazing! Thank you!
Russel Weich
Amazing pizza & you won’t find any pies bigger than theirs!! I was curious if they really used New York water, like their website claims… so I asked. They showed me the pallets of 5 gallon water jugs they get delivered regularly from NY.
I must finish by saying: this is the only thing from NY I am a fan of!! NY in Tampa!!
Dove H
I went here because I saw it was ranked #1 pizza in Tampa for 2021. It lived up to the title, absolutely delicious pizza! I highly highly highlyyyy recommend the lasagna pizza! It is the pizza topping combo I never knew I needed but now don’t think I want to live without. Would recommend.
John Delgado
Was okay, nowhere near new york pizza but edible.. overpriced too
Brandy Wyatt
One of our favorites! We go often, sometimes looking for any excuse to "swing by" downtown to go! Prices and pizzas are top notch!
Michael Nathanson
My favorite pizza in Tampa. I live in south Florida, and every time I go to Tampa, I go here. I like the Buffalo chicken pizza with some pineapple juice. The best!!
Doris ale
Clean, fast service. Ordered 4 slices for my husband and I. I ordered 1 slice of white and 1 slice of tomato and basil both had fresh ingredients not greasy and not hard. The tomatoes were the perfect consistency and not mushy at all. Loved every bite! Hubby got 1 slice of BBQ and lasagna. I kno he loved it because he barely said a word! Refillable drinks from a machine dispenser and plenty of space to sit. First time there but def won't be my last.
J.M.B
Used to be closest thing to NY pizza you could get for Tampa, but has become very inconsistent, getting stingy with toppings, price is getting ridiculous, always overcooked lately, and you can only get the 20 inch, if you go down in size they have not quite learned how to adjust the dough as it is a totally different pizza, too thick for NY style. Still better than what most people in FL call pizza but for $22 bucks you might be happier saving $14 and get dominos lol
Andrew Meravi
Pizza is still great despite expanding the business. Quick service. Only gripe is that they are closed Monday and Tuesday.
Pa Sc
WOW. Authentic New York Pizza in Florida. Amazing.
Lanitra Sanchez-Moore
Ive been coming here for years, and I love the pizza. The ingredients are fresh, and the service is always good. The only issue is parking, and the restaurant can't control that. It's in downtown Tampa.
Annie
Delicious pizza up from New York and we know pizza back again from last year just as good and just as delicious!
Destiny Cartagena
my boyfriend and I love going here. THE BEST FOOD EVER !
James Scully
Best pizza in Tampa, maybe all of Florida!Just like authentic NYC pizza. Some complain it is a bit pricey, but they use top-notch ingredients, great quality cheese, and substantial toppings. I think the price is well worth what you get.
REGINALD BELLAMY
Great pizza and dessert. Try the tux bomb if you are a chocolate lover
Robert Kaiser
Delicious huge slices, I tried 3 different pizzas and can't figure out a favorite!! Sooooo good, best in Tampa in my opinion
David Boglarsky
Excellent pricing. Love their crusts crunch! They use good cheese here!!
Massiel Mojica
Best pizza. I felt like I was back home. The taste the smell the people. If you are ever around downtown Tampa is a must to have a slice in this place. Satisfaction guarantee.
Krim Campbell
Very clean and great customer service. Pizza was delicious. Real New York style!!. Will be back!
Michelle Fong
Pizza was great. I got the white pie with chicken, spinach, and garlic as well as a plain half pepperoini. One of my brother's go to places
Kristen
Tasty pizza offerings and friendly environment. Casual restaurant good for a quick bite. Very busy on a Friday night. If eating in you grab a buzzer and pickup your pizza. Might be hard to find seating.
Edward Jurczak
This was my first visit to this lively pizzeria here in the heart of downtown Tampa's business district. This restaurant has multiple dining rooms with plenty of seating. They offer a large selection of pizzas to choose from, all by the slice during the busy lunch hour. The atmosphere is both pleasant and lively and the staff is very helpful. Prices are about average and the food is excellent. Definitely worth a visit when stopping for lunch. Update: A recent visit did not disappoint. The pizza continues to please and I tried the lasagna pizza today and it was fantastic!
Travis
Delicious pizza friendly employees and very organized for how busy it was
Livia Hughes
FIRE!! NY water so you know it’s real. Best pizza I’ve had in a long time. The margherita, eggplant parm, and Sicilian pizzas were amazing. Will have to stop by every time I’m in the area because it’s just that good
Carolyn Doulens
Best pizza I've had since moving from Connecticut!
Thomas Gratz
I don't see how the restaurant could possibly have such a high rating here at Google. The restaurant is rather dirty inside. The pizza is ok, but still not at any high standard compared to really good and original pizzas.
Jason T
Eddie and Sam’s being a small pizza place it sure can be busy. I went with a friend on a Saturday afternoon and it was surprisingly busy for going at 3:00 P.M. Eddie and Sam’s does Pizza mainly of multiple sizes and the average wait on a given day is at most 5 minutes for food. I had a single slice as did my friend but everything was finished in under 5 minutes. I would definitely go back to Eddie and Sam’s N.Y Pizza if I was staying downtown again.
YayIts K
Am I in NYC? Basically!
There slices are great
The service is super fast
Luis Palau
As usual, the place is crazy busy. Took someone who had never been there. I got the 2 cheese slices deal and they got a meat lover and a lasagna slice. In pure E&S fashion, the pizza was perfect. The cheese was perfectly melted, the crust was paper thin and the sauce was there to marry it all together. Had the pineapple agua fresca and it was delicious. This IS the best pizza in Tampa!
Jacoby Johnson-Wilson
This is by far the best pizza in all of Tampa Bay and I don't say that lightly!! Many places claim to be NY pizza but this place truly is!! I promise you won't be disappointed by going here! There isn't alot of inside seating or outdoor seating but you can always get it to-go!!!
Brent Bethel
Great pizza joint. Recommend you try the lasagna pizza, which was awesome. Also, try the hot garlic wing sauce. The marinara was on point
David Toneff
Recommended highly never had a bad piece of pizza here ever. Huge selection of pizza by the slice. If you remotely like pizza you're going to love this place.
They bring the water in from New York to make the crust, it's the best.
Carl Webb
Pizza was good. Sicilian was great. Bathroom smelled like an open sewer
The Kennedy Konnection
As always, love love love the pizza. Nuff said! Ordering online or at the counter is hassle free. Wish there was a big display of the menu, NY style. Otherwise, good seating outside for eating. My teenage daughter is torn; there's another pizza place close by & she felt like she was cheating on them!(lol)
Michael Mullady
The pizza is amazing and among the best in Tampa. As a native New Yorker I wouldn't say this is the best NY pizza but it is definitely good! Unfortunately I cannot give five stars in good faith because of their covid procedures or lack thereof. We saw many people in line not wearing a mask and it was extremely crowded. The tables even the outside ones were too close together. I will come here for a to go order but only that until this pandemic is over.
Drew Shiner
Delicious New York pizza. This Jersey boy was very happy.
Jeff Schmeling
Closest thing to authentic NY Style pizza I've had since I visited NYC 17 years ago!! I want to find a place like this in Minnesota!!
Miguel Diaz
Now this is a pizza joint. Love everything about this place. I just wish I had one closer to me. Quality, variety and large slices.
Tay Josephine
Authentic New York pizza!! Very delicious and the pizza's are huge. Only complaint I have is the cashier was frazzled and shorted me $10 in my change back but I corrected it. The restaurant could use more seating as well for as much foot traffic it receives. I would go back.
Chris Knoof
Fantastic New York Pizza. I was born and raised in New Jersey and this is the closest thing to home! The NY water in the crust truly makes the difference. You can taste the freshness and quality of all topping ingredients as well! Thanks Eddie & Sam's!
Margo Locust-Fuentes
Reminds me of my home NYC! I've been going there for over 20 years.
Nicey Cilenti
Quick service, great choices plenty of seating inside and outside
L M
Best pizza I have ever had in my entire life. Period. You must try it! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 simply delicious! …
Ron Leibfreid
Lovely Grandma pizza! Courteous and fast. Salvaged my dinner after a bad experience across the street!
Laurie File
Holy cow this was probably the best pizza we have ever had and the slices were huge! We went at lunch time on a Saturday and it wasn't nearly as busy as when we walked by on Friday evening. Would highly recommend.
Misti Russell
Y'all. Go here. BEST pizza, ever. Closes at TEN. Pizza is heated up right before you get it through the oven. So many varieties and just absolutely delicious!
Mercedezz Joyner
This place has the best pizza in downtown!! If you want pizza that makes your mouth water just by looking in the window... Stop in and get a slice of nice... Friendly service with respect and a smile... I brought my daughter here once in 2019 and will continue to go for my favorite slice !
Amanda Whitman
Ordered from Uber eats so it was all cold when we got it that was super disappointing. The white pizza is phenomenal but I paid 1.99 to add broccoli and they literally put one piece of broc on each slice it was pitiful! The bbq wings were good.
Mitchell Castillo
I was a little put off by the volume of people going thru but can't be mad at a place being popular however when the case that's storing all the pre-made pizzas is being cleaned with spray while the pizzas are in the case that's just poor management. As far as the food when I found something I liked the sound of I went with buff chicken pizza and I like hot stuff but that sauce was insane hot. I couldn't even finish it but I took it back and they let me exchange it. The pep sausage piece was good though.
Release The Kragle
I'm from North Carolina and one thing we lack is good old fashioned New York style pizza. Was in Tampa visiting family and had to give it a try.
Easily the best pizza I've had outside of NYC itself. Hands down have to go here. If I had to give it one critique, maybe cook the wings a little longer.
sharon Brantley
Eggplant Parmesan and tomato basil are my favorite
Chris Sampson
Love love love Eddie and Sam's. I travel the state for work and am based out of Orlando, and I will say two things. One, I stop here every chance I get. Two, this is the best pizza I have found in the state of Florida. I have tried a lot of pizza from all over the state and this one takes the cake. My favorites are the lasagna, supreme, and good ol cheese. They're sicilian is good too if you're in the mood for it.
Carl Frodge
Pizza was good, they don't serve Tacos though
Erika C.
Authentic and absolutely deli. We travel from Spring Hill at least once a month for a day around downtown and some gooooood pizza!! Loveeee this place.
Marissa Ellis Serrano
Amazing pizza. They had it ready for us and even though we ordered mozzarella sticks once we were there it was only a few min wait. Even though it's a small place they were all CDC compliant! We always try to grab a meal there when we are in town!
Veron Coleman (Billy Ray Valentine)
The best possible 🍕! New York style for real. Perfect crust. Perfect cheese! NY sports on the tube! …
Evelyn Flint
Lives up to it’s name! I did not expect to find good New York style pizza in Tampa. On par with Philly’s New York style slices, and reminded me well of my Long Island childhood. Very glad I happened upon this place!
Joe Civita
Had some business downtown and came across it after. Saw the sign for 2 slices and a drink so came in not knowing what to expect. The pies are huge! As I sat to eat saw the sign saying the water used for making dough is NY water. There was a particular crunch to the crust reminiscent of pizza in NYC. Delicious and good selection of fountain drinks beyond the standard sodas. Will probably be ordering for delivery a lot now having tried it out in person.
David Hernandez
Loved the pizza there it is like New York pizza is suppose to taste
Jadzia
Delicious big slices of pizza and very nice places to sit. Plus the ice cream shop inside of it.
Emily E
Had the 14 inch Bianca with spinach and grilled chicken delivered to our house through DoorDash. Our pizza arrived in under 20 minutes!
The pizza was delicious, the ricotta melted in your mouth. My husband and I shared the 14 inch pizza and each had a slice leftover for the next day. We will definitely be ordering again!
Cris Peter
Their white pizza is very tasty.
Gilles Haun
Great place to eat with a top notch quality pizza. Plenty of items to order on their menu - go there and get your pizza then take it outside to a table and enjoy the day in downtime Tampa.
Jessie Nunez
As a native New Yorker this pizza is good. I will go back again but nothing beats home. The crust isn't the same but the toppings on the special slices made up for it. I had the spicy barbeque the Hawaiian.
Jenn Garrison
Best pizza place in Tampa. Many selections, by the slice or by the box and gelato
Joshua Schneider
Eddie and Sam's has always had amazing pizza, and now they upgraded their ordering system, making it easier to order if you don't want to wait in line. If you want pizza in Tampa, this is always the first choice.
Hudson Starke
Delicious. Traditional real New York pies and slices. Great joint. Average about 3 bucks a slice for flavor packed deliciousness. They even sell a 28 inch pie for those with the munchies. I highly recommend for pizza fans to check this place out. You wont be disappointed, they're fast and sling food out like crazy.
Dru Evans
I loved it! Best pizza my son has ever had. Service was great. Staff have a sense of humor and food quality is high. Saw many nationalities in there, so it appeared to be enjoyed by many.
Devon Ingandela
Pizza is great (good as of 9/25/19, used to be great), but not best in Tampa great. I've been buying by the slice at lunch and their new conveyor oven they use for reheating single slices crisps the crust to the point that it's brittle. Their whole pie is much better only cooked once and in a proper oven. That being said I'd still recommend checking this place out. -- Edit 09/25: dropped to three stars. Quality has gone down and price has gone up.
Sean Singh
Hadn’t been here in a while and was surprised the quality of the pizza had dropped off. Got a selection of different topped slices and all were just okay. It just wasn’t the NY style pizza they had before.
Ronda Berry
Very cool NY style pizza spot in downtown Tampa. Counter service, lots of different slices available. They say the pizzas are made with New York water! We used to live in NY and miss the pizza, so when we came across the amazing reviews for this place, we decided we needed to give it a try. We were very impressed with the pizza. It was great!
Joe Mccullough
What can I say that hasn't been said already, they are the best I found in Florida
Kendra K
Whenever we visit Downtown Tampa, we eat at Eddie and Sam's. It almost tastes like real New York pizza. The Tiramisu is to die for!
Kelly Hendricks
I had the opportunity to try the plain cheese pizza, the white pizza, barbecue chicken pizza, and tomato basil Pizza. All four were delicious and do remind me of New York pizza from all the times that I have been in New York city. They are great for a slice or a whole pie.
Lottie Phans
Hands down one of the best New York style pizzas I’ve ever had. For you foodies out there you know what makes a good New York style pizza. Perfectly Crispy crust throughout and soft bite dough. I hate it when the middle of a pizza gets soggy...not here! Fresh ingredients and the toppings were perfectly cooked, perfect amount of cheese and sauce. I dream about the pizza here and to this day have not been able to find another place like it. The only other pizza that came close to this one was in little Italy in New York which we were not able to find again after our second trip to New York. Our search for delicious pizza such as here continues!
nancy earley
Pizza was NY Style which is why we went. Delicious! Quick, courteous service. Price is right. We sat outside however and we were approached 3x by people asking for money or help. I understand the issues we are facing however I had a 5 year old with me and it was 7 30 PM. Was not the bar crowd. Was the dinner crowd. So. Not sure I would return to eat there again.
Marco Diaz
Pizza was delicious and Huge! We ordered 2 of the 28" pizzas for 8 people and customized it however we wanted (highly recommend the eggplant one). But be careful, as these pizzas are very BIG. Chicken wings were great as well. We had so much leftover pizza and so we shared a few plates with homeless people nearby.
Benjamin Chang
Pretty good! I like how they give you red sauce to add on top if you are a marinara lover like me
James Lorenzen
Haven't been here in a few years. Took my wife and kids here also met my sister here. It was all their first time and loved it. Very good pizza. I can't wait to come back with them.
Dave John
Great pizza! I'm from New Jersey and I love Jersey and New York pizza! So far out of any one down here in 12 years they have to be the closest to the real thing. Still not exactly the same but the best you can find down here! They import their water from New York state which definatly helps the taste of the pizza dough. I live an hour away and any time I am near here I have to stop for pizza. It looks like an upscale New York City pizzeria inside and out. Place is clean and looks new. They offer order in and take out along with lunch specials. Great place to try if you want to get as close to New York pizza by just living in Florida!
Bed Bug K9 Experts, Inc Inspection You Can Trusts!
Their pizza is amazing! Susan or Suzy rather is amazing. She is truly one of a kind. She is patient, quick, professional and courteous. Let's not forget friendly. We were told when we 1st moved down here that we should try them. Unfortunately took us almost a year before we could get there. Once we did though, we were hooked! Since they are almost always so busy and packed, we have been ordering online and have it ready when we get there! So, not so bad having to deal with the packed store. But, they are packed because they are just that good! Lol. We are from NY, and NY is known for their pizza - this is better than most of the pizza shops in NY! This is a personal testimony.
Andrew Elekes
My favorite pizza restaurant period. A must stop whenever I'm in Tampa or St. Pete. It's not too far off the interstate and you can get in and out pretty quick. The only pain is having to find a parking spot downtown but try the lot in front of the Catholic Cathedral and walk it.
You can't go wrong here, different flavor slices for everyone's tastes. My favorite is their buffalo chicken slice.
Amber Wallace
Delicious, delicious pizza. What makes it so good is they import their water from Brooklyn. We could not believe how much of a difference it makes in the dough. They have a great selection of different pizza and they put a lot of toppings on each. The atmosphere is just OK here, nothing special nothing fancy. You don't need that with how good this pizza is. I really like the Coke machine. If one of the newer machines. The parking across the street charges a flat fee of $15. So you my want to find street parking.
Keith Brookins
Ordered the 14 inch lasagna and 14 inch supreme. When ordering a full pizza it takes roughly 25 minutes, but they make it fresh to order. The pizzas are New York style, large slices and a well cooked crust. The lasagna pizza is my favorite of the two, with creamy ricotta cheese, seasoned meat, sauce and mozzarella. One thing that let me down somewhat was the sauce itself. The pizza as a whole is great, but the sauce needed something more. I felt that the sauce needed seasoning or more time to mature to make it more robust. Other than that one part, the pizzas were delicious and I would gladly go again!
steve justice
Great New York style pizza. Great crust with a good balance of crispness and chew. Cheese was quality and the sauce and crust had good flavor as well as the toppings. Service was quick and all the employees were friendly. They use water from New york according to them to make the dough. I would highly recommend this place.
Talisa Knight
Pizza was pretty awesome! 4 of us all had the same opinion. 2 of our friends have eaten pizza in NY and said it's by far the closest so far. We all bought by the slice. So many delicious options to choose from. For being downtown Tampa, I expected to pay nearly double for what they offer. Price is quite fair for what you get! Would definitely recommend and certainly return!
Antonia Colon
Feels like HOME!!!!!!! WAY TO GO!!! I've finally found great pizza in Florida I will be back way more than my Gym would like.
Andi Simplyandi
You can get anything and everything on your pie.....so delicious!
Mike Williams
Pizza is amazing! My only dislike is the Tiramisu cake- it was like pudding. It's served in a small, plastic bowl. Not even close to being Tiramisu. I think management should consider taking it off the menu. Outside of that- food is really good.
Kenneth Winslow
Great pizza and great service. Its downtown, so the parking sucks. If you go during lunch time, its gets pretty nuts, but it's worth it. I remember going there in the early two thousands and it has really changed since then. Bigger, cleaner, and more space to sit and enjoy your pizza. Definitely recommend the place.
Komo Denman
I took my 14 yr.old son !!! And he was like "pop" this pizza is " Fire"!!!& I was like "No it's lit" , as the youngsters say" 😁, Great memories" , With blessings " More to come !!! Thanks 👍🏿 …
Danielle Harding
Love Eddie and Sam's! Used to come here often with the kids on the way to bolt's games pre-pandemic. So wonderful to finally get back out on this beautiful Saturday and enjoy some amazing pizza!!
Chris Guarraia
We were there when the All-State music students (band, orchestra, and chorus) were all let out for dinner. At first, we were concerned about the line that went out the door, but after reassurances from other patrons, many of whom were associated with All-State, the line did go quickly. We might have waited a total of 20 minutes once we were inside to when we ordered. The pizza was delicious, especially the Sicilian and the buffalo chicken pizzas. Very reasonably priced. It is definitely worth subsequent visits.
Ae Green
Authentic NY Pizza - Nice TV monitors with various programs.
Chris Smith
Pizza is always great, service is speedy if not a bit gruff but that adds to the ":charm". They churn through serious amounts of customers and pizza. Great pizza option if you go with several people as everyone can just pick and choose what kind of slices they want-they seriously have 20-30 different choices at any given time. Despite long lines never seem to have wait all that long to order and get your food.
robife3
First time here. Pizza was very good. Had the buffalo chicken, cheese, and a supreme slice. Got wings as well which were good. Will definitely be back with the family to try them again.
Marissa Miles
EASILY the best pizza I have ever had. They’re always packed for lunch but the line moves super fast. I walk a mile each way for this pizza, past other pizza shops. That’s how good it is. Their spinach and ricotta slices are my favorite! I cannot say enough good things about Eddie and Sams!
Jim Leonidas
So I have been coming her for the past 4 years and while it started out great I used to drive 30 minutes to come here the quality has fallen big time the past 6 months.
The crust now is so thin its difficult to do the iconic fold. Sauce and Cheese is now so sparring its lost most flavor.
I will try it again when I'm downtown but its not worth any special trips now to go and grab a couple slices.
Darren Huggins
For some reason we always find that the pizza shops in downtown anywhere are the best. Eddie and Sam's is no exception.
My wife and I always try something different because the selection is huge. This time my wife ordered the white and Sicilian pizza. The white had a nice garlic taste with big dollop of ricotta. The Sicilian had a nice crunch on all the edges. I chose the Brooklyn and the meat lovers. The Brooklyn was chicken and bacon. The meat lovers was my favorite. It was loaded with sausage, ham, pepperoni and meatballs. It was a pretty hefty slice. We also ordered one cheese slice because it's a tradition.
Would highly recommend Eddie and Sam's to anyone.
John Brown
Easy to see why this is a busting place. Many varieties of good pizza by the slice or whole, a few other Italian entree menu items, served inexpensively and quickly in a deli style line...downtown in a big city. It's not as good, though, as pizza made to order, say like Mellow Mushroom.
Henry Cartagena
Lots of choices to pick from. Aside from each slice being very flavorful, I've always believed the crust is what makes the pizza and this place knows what they're doing.
A N
I've had pizza all over the U.S. and none are as good as Eddie and Sam's for the price. There's a reason this place manages 4.7 stars across 1800 reviews. It really is that great. You might have slightly better tasting pizza elsewhere (slightly) but it will be way more expensive. A huge slice of buffalo chicken and a garlic knot? $3.50. Can't beat that and it tastes AMAZING.
Luis Celpa
Normally excellent pizza. This one time the taste was off. However, the staff can be a bit friendlier. The New York attitudes can be dropped. In Florida you treat others nice and are respectful. If I want NYC attitude I'll go back home.
Note: no one was disrespectful. Just the cold unfriendly vibe from the staff behind the counter.
Tyler Anderson
Eddie and Sam’s is my favorite pizza place in all of Tampa. One night, I was with my dog and couldn’t find parking anywhere nearby and I didn’t feel safe to leave the car running blocks from Eddie’s, so I brought him with. I called my order ahead, the cashier said she could help me out and it wasn’t an issue at all. She was so kind and definitely the reason I’m writing this review. They do a great job with their customer service and it seems to me to be a great job from the top down.
Caroline D
The best pizza in Tampa and surrounding areas.Just had it for the first time and wow wish we lived nearby to have it weekly ! Definitely will be visiting again. Priced right and the bathrooms were immaculate went there after a run wasn't expecting that. Had the BBQ Chicken pizza and hubby had brooklyn bridge pizza.
Eric Applegate
I love this place. I am a born and raised jersey guy and know good New York style pizza when I taste it. I am in love with this place and it’s the only pizza place downtown I will order from. Highly recommended!
They also offer a huge 28’ pie. Enjoy!
Ronald Giroux
Hands down the best Pizza in Tampa. Served in a traditional NY pizza shop fashion. Tons of fresh options and large hot slices. If you haven't tried it yet, it's worth the trip. Parking kind of sucks though, but that's no reflection on the fantastic food served here.
Jessica Kush
Delicious! Great pizza place in Downtown Tampa. Wide variety of options during lunch. If you're looking for a good NY style pizza, you've found it.
ebby
Best pizza in the city.
Definitely the place to go if you're looking for pizza.
Prices are not ridiculous either.
Ricardo Kendrick
Here are a few things I liked about Eddie's. First, it feels like a local pizza joint. Second, they have some BIG pizza slices. I had one and my friend had 2. Third, it was a casual place to eat. You could eat outside or chill inside. My guy recommended it so we are here and caught up with each other. So I feel this is a good place to spend with family and friends, eat good pizza and still have conversation and a good time. The pizza was a little greasy, but the actually taste of it was really good. I enjoyed my slice!
