Three generations of the Sampino family have been making sausage, pasta, and memories by hand — since the day they picked up a sledgehammer and decided to build something great.

65 years of craft. Every sausage, every pasta, every detail made by hand and it shows.

The Sandwiches That Built Our Reputation

Every sandwich at Sampino's is built on fresh ciabatta, loaded with house-made ingredients, and served with a complimentary green salad. Because that's just how we do things.

The Meatball Sub

Sacramento's most-talked-about sandwich

House-made meatballs — hand-rolled the same way Bill has done it for decades — piled onto fresh ciabatta with marinara, provolone, cheddar, shaved grana padano, garlic aioli, and diced pepperoncini. The one that made us.

Chicken Parmesan Sandwich

Breaded. Crispy. Unbeatable.

Lightly breaded chicken breast, house marinara, melted provolone and cheddar, tomato, balsamic vinaigrette. The ciabatta holds up — it has to. A Sacramento lunchtime staple since the beginning.

Same food. More courses. A few more candles.
