Went there for our first time and it was fantastic! Make reservations, which we didn't know we needed. However, there was a seats at the bar which is perfect for us. The bartender recommended food and we accepted, and so pleased we did! Calamari, prawn linguine and sausage linguine. His service and response time was impeccable. We also added the house wine to our meal which was a very good cab. No tap beers...the tappers were all fake and just for the look. Lol. Overall....we will be returning!

We love this little spot, we wish we could keep it our little secret, but I want them to be in business forever, so we have to share the love. I can't say enough about how good the food is and the cocktails are delicious. I had prawn linguini and an old fashion. Several on out table had the salmon special, which they all said was out of this world. Our waitress Ashley was so warm and wonderful, we ask for her when we go. A lot of the staff is family, and they are so invested in the restaurant's success. They stop by the table to say hello, and make sure you are doing well. This place is a true gem.

What can we say...food, service, and ambiance were all perfect. So much so the owner/chef checks in with you personally to make sure your expectations are met. Very friendly and accommodating staff, true attention to detail. A must try!

Enjoyed my second visit to Sampino's at Joe Marty's. Awesome dinner once again. Our group enjoyed Spaghetti Carbonara with Shrimp,my daughter went with her usual Chicken Piccata and my Son went for the Sausage with Peppers over pasta. Each of us ordered the excellent 4 course dinner. Salad, Bread, Entree and dessert, that will probably end up going home with you. Calamari, Bruschetta and a couple of Martinis to start and you are on your way. We had the privilege of being waited on by Giovanni a Grandson of one of the founders. Knowledgeable, considerate and very personable. Great recommendations on our Entree choices too.

Thank you to the Sampino family for all of the efforts put in to make my grandfathers celebration of life absolutely perfect. They really took care of everything, from the delicious and wide variety of food, to serving my grandfathers favorite cocktail, to even docorating the restaurant with my grandfathers favorite flowers. They are truly so professional and personable. The food was amazing, the service was impeccable and the atmosphere created allowed for our guests to relax and reminisce on good times while making more memories. My heart is so full with appreciation and gratitude.

The Sampino family is second to none in hospitality, professionalism and excellence! When you taste Sampinos food you taste the love and passion he has for food in both the restaurant and deli. The perfect mix of seasoning and ingredients is amazing. This is our new family favorite restaurant! The restaurant is a statement piece in itself with the wonderful nostalgia you only find in a Sacramento great restaurant! Thank you Sampino family!

This place is phenomenal from the service to the meal. Don't leave without having the homemade pasta, such a treat! But not all made fresh in house (spaghetti, linguini). Call ahead for reservations because this is a popular place!

The food was really good I had meatballs and a Caesar salad and the "Marty Burger" gave the meatballs a 9/10 and the Marty Burger 9.5/10. The Ambiance of the place was a lot nicer than I anticipated there were baseball memorabilia all along the walls and even the jerseys were framed and some were autographed. The service was great they were dressed in suits very sleek looking and very professional. Even the chef came out of the kitchen to ask us about the food highly recommend

Sam pino goes above and beyond any expectations you will have for food . It’s not the food that should only attract you here it’s the experience. The family the friends the co workers .
Oh, how I adore Italian cuisine! My visit to Sampino's was an absolute delight--it's undoubtedly the finest spot for authentic Italian food in Sacramento! The ambiance is perfect, with great music and a friendly staff to top it off.

Omg I finally tried this place it and it was SO good! We waited about 45 mins for a table but honestly it was so worth the wait. Service was phenomenal and the food was on par too! Literally such a cute date spot as the lighting is very low but warm. I throughly enjoyed my meal and eating here! Best Italian food I've had in Sac so far (:

The owner is great and they play two of my favorite movies of all time in there, can't go wrong. They will always make things right if there are any issues don't hesitate to let them know they care about the community. Great place we come here for birthdays sometimes and I come myself if I want a Italian.

The only problem with Joe Marty's is that they aren't open enough. There are SO many times we have tried to go here and they aren't open. I love their sandwiches, meatballs, bruschetta, garlic bread and cocktails. The staff is always friendly, and the bartenders always take good care of you and are attentive to well-crafted drinks. This is a classy, old-fashioned restaurant that's great for a date night. Love love this place, please expand your hours! :)
