It is a good idea to be carrying in those parts (people are paying $1m for condos there? yikes!) but I love the Tampa Theater.
First, you are totally surrounded by hippies, young and old.
Second, they have an organ that rises out of the ground with an old dude jamming on it.
Third, if you go on a Saturday you can buy the best pizza (the plain cheese is the best) in the state around the block. $5 for two slices and a soda:
Eddie & Sam's NY Pizza

The best pizza in town
Eddie and Sams is a favorite spot for myself and my coworkers to visit any day of the week. I can honestly say that this is the closest pizza to a real New York pizza - just fabulous. If you can handle the orders taken quickly and yelled out, along with a hot restaurant with no air conditioning, it's well worth it in the end!
Best Pizza in Town!!!!
Eddie and Sam's is by far the best pizza I have tasted, I would say its as good or maybe better than alot of the pizza places in N.Y !!!! I love the atmosphere and the hustle and bustle of the place. I've never had a problem getting whatever I wanted (even chicken rolls) at anytime even after 7pm and now they are open on Saturdays aswell I take the kids, the service is great. My personal favorite is the tomato basil,mmmm! A must if you are in downtown tampa.
Great food but no desire to work
Eddie & Sams provides a refreshing change from the typical pathetic Florida Pizza joints. Unfortunately, unless you can get to its Downtown Tampa Location during the hours of 9-5 you will not be able to experience it. It seems that after 5 O'Clock the ovens are either broken or they are all out of the delicious chicken rolls. What irks me, is that they should simply whip up another chicken roll but they simply dont seem to care about the consumer. Its a shame, the food is absolutely amazing, its too bad they dont know how to run a business
One of your favorite customers
I live in Brandon. I visit Eddie's and Sam's at least once a week via the Selmon Expressway. This Pizza restaurant is by far the best I have ever tasted in Florida. I am originally from Philly with many relatives in NY. I realize the hours are not for everyone in Hillsborough County, but plan a day, take your friends, itis well worth it. The lunch specials are awesome. "Hats off" to you guys at Eddie's and Sam's. You have my business and I tell everyone to stop by and get a wonderful pizza !! |
