Build a Business Your Family Is Proud Of
Sam & Louie's began with one location in Omaha and grew into a Midwest favorite serving hand-tossed New York pizza and Italian classics. Our president started as a dishwasher in 1994 and worked his way to ownership. That's the kind of story our franchise model is built to create.
A Proven System With Room to Grow
Our restaurants are well suited for any size of community, with flexible building options, strong training and support teams, and a menu that's won Omaha's Choice Best Pizza five years running. You bring the drive; we bring the playbook, from site selection through opening day and beyond.
Every location is locally owned and operated. That local ownership is the whole point: restaurants run for the enjoyment of the guests and the neighborhoods they serve, providing jobs and becoming the place a town gathers.

Five Reasons Owners Choose Sam & Louie's
Avoid Challenging Management Situations
Owning a franchise allows you to step away from difficult management environments and become your own employer, giving you the power to create a positive workplace culture.
Human Connection in the Restaurant Industry
The restaurant industry thrives on human-driven culture and community. The emotional connection, warmth, and personalized care provided by servers and chefs offer a unique soul that AI can never replace.
Build Equity
Traditional employment rarely offers the opportunity to build equity. Business ownership allows you to invest in, grow, and eventually sell your enterprise, providing tangible long-term rewards and financial independence.
Achieve Greater Flexibility
Owning a business gives you more control over your schedule, letting you prioritize important family milestones and a better work-life balance.
Create a Legacy
Sam & Louie's began as a family business and remains one today. Our president started as a dishwasher in 1994 and grew with the company until becoming the owner. Build a business that provides for your family's future.
