Sammy's Pasta Pizza - Spencer

Fantastic Italian food! Great value and had a wonderful waitress with a very intriguing accent. The house dressing was strange but good! The bread rolls were very good! We had the basics like spaghetti meatballs, Alfredo, and a pasta sampler. So so so so good! You can tell a lot about an Italian place based on the marinara on their dishes. I'm very particular because I make my own Italian at home. We are here after the fair and I was VERY impressed. If we are in Spencer again, I WILL be back! Go here! I doubt you'll regret it.

Great spot to get food, was kinda packed when we got here but was quickly seated, food was all super good!Definitely a nice sit down spot.Parking: Free parking lot

The food was excellent! Never disappointed there. Our server however left much to be desired!Food: 5/5

Located on Spencer Iowa's South Grand Avenue is the gem of a restaurant known as Sammy's Italian Pasta Pizza. This eatery serves up some of the most delicious Italian cuisine around. Their menu includes; Salads, Spaghetti, Home Baked Pastas, Homemade Specialties, Chicken dishes, Veal dishes, Seafood dishes, Sandwiches, Side orders and a locals favorite, their Pizza! Plus, twice daily they make and serve, with each table, their (should be patented) dinner rolls.Our group had their:• Chicken Florentine Mushroom, onions, spinach, garlic cream sauce over spaghetti. My wife absolutely loved this large and tasty meal.• Chicken Marsala Sauteed chicken with fresh mushroom, marsala wine sauce over spaghetti. I absolutely loved this (best ever) large and tasty meal.• Spaghetti Meatballs Meatballs over a portion of spaghetti and smothered with their homemade marinara sauce. Our young diner loved this dish even though it required a face washing afterward.Their quality of superior service is slightly overshadowed by the quality of their superb dishes!Service options: Dine in · Drive through · Delivery

We have only been there once, but not bad. Food was pretty good. But, shortly after we got there, they got slammed with customers. And with only 2 waitresses, we waited over 30 minutes to get our drinks/water after placing our order. With about 15 tables, call in orders, and a drive thru I understand why they had a hard time keeping up. I will go back, to try again to make sure this was a fluke and their service can't be normally this slow.
