    We have been fans of SammyG's for years. But last night was a great disappointment. We hosted first time guests - the table was in a horrid location almost forcing two of us to try to eat at the edge. The waiter refused to provide separate checks for the two couples. Really? in 2025 you can't provide separate checks? If this is a restaurant policy, shame on SammyG's. If this was the waiter's policy - shame on him. Bummer experience - but the food was their usual very good.

    Our first visit. Wonderful place for lunch! Great service and great value as well. I had the Insalata Di Ciya ( pro tip- add a couple of prawns and my wife had the Fruit Chicken Salad with the yummy curry flavored chicken salad. Plus bottomless champagne for only $9!

    Fish and chicken pizza were ok. I wish the fish came with smash potatoes in addition to the green beans. They served too many green beans.

    The garlic bread is so delicious and so was my wedge salad. The salad came with creamy garlic dressing with chunks of blue cheese on it, and sliced red onions… so delicious. My main dish was the mushroom ravioli in a cream sauce. I really splurged today. My sister and I go to Sammy’s every time we vacation in Palm Springs.

    The ambiance is very nice. Service was also very good (Humberto). The rib eye (Chianti) and lasagna was tasty as well as the kids spaghetti and meatball. We were here before and would recommend this restaurant.

    This restaurant is beautiful with indoor or patio seating. I recommend the patio as it has two lovely fountains. The service is prompt and top notch. Servers know their food well. Wine menu is extensive and cocktails as well. The food is really the star here! Excellent lasagna the very best. Looking forward to dining here again.

    I was ORDERED AND THREATENED by a female egoed out GM to delete my honest review on the last dining experience that was 100% truthful about a family celebration ruined by a rude stressed out server who didnt like it that we had to return an order initially ordered with requests for certain spices to not be put on meal due to life threating allergy illness' as order came out wrong with things we cant eat. ... We wiill not return nor will several other friends who interestingly enough said they had issues with same server on other occasions. These people have jobs because of us..its a shame as we ve gone to this location since day 1 of original owner who was a family friend who is going to be very upset to know of all this as an item on menu named after him!, way before rude gm was ever a usa resident..on to Johnny Costas!
