General Info
Sam Spera, like many Italian Americans, came to the United States looking for a better life Moving from the small town of Villalba, Sicily, Sam and his wife Anna immigrated to Trenton, NJ in 1951. Hard times meant hard work and Sam found himself juggling up to two jobs to support this new American family of five.

Purchasing a small pizza oven and relying on an old recipe handed down from his Sicilian roots for pizza dough, Sam started turning out slices of Pie for 15 cents each. A smart decision... as it helped his business grow eventually leading him to move to the Southside of 26th Street where Sam's Pizza Palace is currently housed.
