Sammio's Italian Restaurant

Honestly, the food was really good. It was quite hard to choose what to eat since there was such a large variety of options on the menu, and it all sounded delicious. Staff was quite friendly, and made sure everyone had the correct orders, as we were a party of about 15 people. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for an Italian restaurant.

Our server, Taylor, greeted us not with a hello or even a smile, but with a dirty look like we had already done something wrong just by showing up. I understand folks have off days, but good gracious we hadn’t even sat down yet and already felt unwelcome. From there, things only got worse. Taylor barely acknowledged us, acted like every question was a burden, and we had to wait forever just to get our drinks. No refills, no check-ins, no kindness — just attitude. We felt completely neglected while other tables seemed to get at least basic service.

To top it all off, the restaurant was filthy. The floors were sticky, the menus were grimy, and don’t even get me started on the bathroom — bless it, I’ve seen cleaner outhouses at a county fair. I’m not a fussy woman, but I do believe in common decency, and this was severely lacking. We came in ready to enjoy a nice meal together, but instead left feeling ignored and unwelcome.

I won’t be back, and if Taylor’s still working the floor, I’d suggest others steer clear too.

Great place to eat

Average..

Good service

We had a large group for lunch to celebrate a birthday. We were mostly the only table in the restaurant. Our service did not reflect this. However, there were two servers who were at one point waiting on our table, but it took them a very long time to help us every time we needed something. Most of our group liked their food, and some were overcooked. The dessert was still frozen. Who wants to eat frozen cake, and tiramisu?

No longer open as of 10/25/24

We had my mom’s birthday celebration at Sammios on Raeford Road. The waitress was friendly and helpful. Our orders were very good and we had no issues that I’m aware of.

The prices were reasonable. Around $10 for pasta’s. Around $15 if seafood was added. She kept our drinks refilled and brought the food out fast.

I’ve had much less at restaurants in Fayetteville costing much more. Mom enjoyed it. We brought her cake fresh from Publix.

I recommend for the quality of food and for the reasonable prices.

Always love eating here, Sabrina is the best by far and makes us feel like family. I purchased to go food this time and was disappointed in the lack of sauce they are putting on the ziti.

Update 10/24 the restaurant has had a makeover. The staff has grown. The food the last few times has been delicious!! I get smothered chicken with Marsala spaghetti! The hubby gets the spaghetti combo! Tonya is a new favorite server since Sabrina went to day shift! We dined inside last night!!

I love Sammio's, my coworkers and I come here for lunch a few times a month on Wednesdays and the food and service has always been great. I am vegetarian and love the options they have available. It is a great affordable dining options with super sweet staff.
