Fresh food, reasonable prices & nice service with some grumpy faces!

Pandemic victim. Used to be OK, with decent food,. Sadly, now they are understaffed, chain level food quality, and struggling service (they seem understaffed). Every restaurant has a life span, and I think Sammy is on its last legs. Cheap happy hour and decent drinks. Recommend if you have no other options and don't want to spend too much. Pizza slightly better than frozen.

If you are going for a salad they are huge. For me half would be more than enough. Delicious. Had to leave room for desert :)

Great place! Love the handsome bartender. Didn't get to try the pizza (I'm low carb) but looked really good.

Tommy Bahamas was closing early so thought we would give Sammy’s a try. The place was completely devoid of customers. First warning sign. Only one waitress on duty. Second sign. Now for the food and drink…Co2 tank empty so no drinks. We Settled for a nasty warm powdered lemonade drink. The garlic cheese bread tasted like gasoline. I took one bite of my Hawaiian pizza only to discover it had no taste but what I did taste or smell was old and stale. My wife’s order also tasted stale also. Bottom line, we left with upset stomachs and frustration on how a restaurant can serve low grade understaffed dog food and still remain open?The waitress was nice though. Next time we will be wiser…Avoid this place at all costs.

Worst host service ever my family and I walk to the Africa American host he ignored us .I go inside and ask a waiter she gladly put on the list but once inside we get flat soda we get burnt pizza what chief would let There craft out the kitchen with a whole burnt pizza it was to many thumbs down it felt a little like we don’t want your kind back here again .this place didn’t feel welcoming.and the Hawaii Pizza was disgusting

We went back two days in a row! Shrimp tacos the first time which were delicious! 2nd time pizza and salad ?Highly recommended. The servers we had both days were excellent!!

Great food, lovely waitress, pleasing atmosphere, and a good happy hour menu and prices Monday through Friday. We ate dinner there on a Friday night around 5:30 pm. Soft, pleasant music playing in the background. Higher quality silverware and white cloth napkins. We will be going back soon.

It wasn't planned, but turned out to be a great friend to meet a friend. Come to think of it, I randomly met a person there years ago and we are still friends.Like most places short staffed, but admired how the staff on duty kept things moving so well. We didn't at all feel like the wait for service or food wasn't terrific.My Hawaiian pizza was more than enough, so looking forward to great leftover pizza tonight.

Went for the messy sundae we'd had before and loved. Turned out we really liked the fish tacos and Mediterranean flat bread too

Took over an hour to get a cold pizza delivered. Phoned to complain. Was told that driver also had a “large “ delivery. Very disappointed in receiving a cold order. Would not recommend. Sammy’s did not seem to care

The service really sucks, we were waiting to be seated and after 10 minutes nobody assist us, I went to the bar and the waitress was very rude when I told her that we were waiting. The first time that we came, the food was terrible, the pizza was burnt. I won't come back.

Agonizing wait, salad was a bowl of boring dressing, waitress was sweet

It was very evident upon walking up that the restaurant was experiencing a short-staffing issue ---- but wow, those who were working were making up for the situation! Everyone was kind and efficient, getting us seated as quickly as possible. The pizzas and beverages were great and the server did a good job. I'd go back to Sammy's.
