Sammy's Pizza & Italian Restaurant provides pizza, pasta, appetizers, soups, salads, and sandwiches to the Green Bay, WI area.
Our Family History...
Our great aunt and uncle opened the first Sammy’s in Keewatin, Minnesota in 1953. Five years later our grandparents and parents opened Sammy’s in Green Bay. With tremendous effort and dedication, our parents grew the restaurant into the Sammy’s we know today.
Our recipes have not changed since 1958 and additional family recipes have been added over the years. Some recipes date back to our family’s original Italian restaurant opened in 1924 by our great grandparents near Iron Mountain, Michigan.
Growing up, we remember our grandmothers, who lived on the same street in Iron Mountain, making pasta by hand each morning. Today, we still make homemade pasta but get help from the pasta machine purchased by our parents while on a visit to Rome in 1976. We are proud to offer homemade spaghetti, fettuccini, gnocchi, and four varieties of ravioli along with five pasta sauces, meatballs, and Italian sausage, also made by hand from family recipes.
Although pastas are a large part of Sammy’s menu, pizza remains our most popular item. Like pasta, our pizza dough, sauce, and sausage are handmade from family recipes. We use the freshest ingredients to compliment our pizza offerings. The menu includes 11 specialty pizzas, 24 toppings should you wish to build your own pizza, and we are proud to used Wisconsin made Mozzarella cheese.
A member of the Crispigna family is at Sammy’s every day, including our mom, Bernie, who has lived all 56 years of this family business. Our thanks also go out to our hard-working and dedicated staff, without whom we could not be successful. We appreciate all the friends we have made over the years and always enjoy meeting new ones.
