Sam & Ella's Chicken Palace 419 North Muskogee Avenue, Tahlequah, OK 74464

"This could possibly be some of the best pizza in Oklahoma. We were greeted and seated really quickly. The Menu has many specialty pizza options and also a create your own option. You can choose a small, Med? Or large, and I feel like the value on all the sizes is phenomenal. A small pizza can feed 2 people easily and is great for a mix and match option for groups. Roxy was our server, and she really was on top of things and made sure we didn't have any questions and we got taken care of. I was very impressed with the quality of the ingredients and texture of the pizza throughout. There is plenty of dining area and seating for parties of all sizes. If I had to be picky on anything, it would be the inability to marry this pizza with some tasty local beer. We had an excellent experience and will be back for sure."

"Just want to say, this place came as a recommendation from a friend when we were at the lake this weekend. When they told me the name, I thought he said, “salmonella’s”! I was like, don’t Eat the chicken!! Could not have been more happy with the decision. We were told by our friends to order the pickle pizza. When he told me that, I thought it sounded gross. When we got here we ordered that and a Rock island Red. They hand toss the dough to get your pizza ready. So it does take just a bit longer. But really not bad wait time. We got some marinara and ranch with our pizza. Their marinara is homemade. Really really good. The pickle pizza was good. I would order it again. No problem with crust on it. Crunch but light on the corners. He folds over the corners of the crust. Really an artist! The Rock Island Red was really good. They have been in business since 1998. Family owned and operated. Service was good. Also the sub sandwiches that came out to other people looked amazing. This will be our new spot to leave the lake with."

"Ordered the Supreme pizza, cheesy bread and stuffed mushrooms, to go. The mushrooms were tasty, very rich but good. The cheesy bread was over cooked and bottom was hard as a rock. Pizza was an absolute disaster. Burnt around the edges, pepperoni crumbled it was so dry. It was like eating a work boot. Suggest you go to one of the other pizza places in town. Recommendation: 0"

"Not what it used to be. This is the second “not so stellar” experience recently. Not sure we’ll be back again. The first time, they burned our pizza. Took us over 2 hours to eat. This time, they burned our food again. Not once did they offer to refill our drinks, we were borrowing from each each other until every last drop was gone and we were sucking on what little ice remained. Actually, they only returned to our table after bringing our food once to ask if we needed the ticket. Just very disappointing. $75 ticket to boot. The Sam & Ella’s we’ve all loved through years May very well be a thing of the past."
