I'm so happy this wonderful restaurant found its way to Vegas. I originally found it in California, so when this came to Vegas it makes my LV trips all the more enjoyable. Happy hour starts at 3PM and that made my favored dish (mini duck tacos) even better. Seriously though, the pizza is great, but the mini duck tacos are one of the best things I've had in my life! I hope they always keep it on the menu. The Flatbread Crackers with butter are also on my list of favorite things. I swear, if there was a Sammy's in Houston I'd eat there every week!
Tried going to the southwest location yesterday after I received a $100 gift card for my birthday. Had been going to there for years but it is now permanently closed. So we ended up going to this Sahara location for Happy Hour. Apparently that Las Vegas restaurant gift card has a few different options. We had a few drinks and a couple appetizers from the Happy Hour. We also had entrees from the normal menu. Abigail brings the check and it totals $128, I hand the 100 in gift card and my discover card for the remainder. She walks away then comes back telling me the check is now $166 because I cannot use the gift card during Happy Hour. Never does it say that on Sammy's menu or on the gift card's website. Never saw it on Sammy's website either. Abigail says there's a sign on the bar that says it. The bar that is on the other side from where we were sitting with our kids, thus impossible to see. Very silly. I reluctantly tell her ok to charge me the $38 more. How are they going to change the price and add to the check AFTER it has been presented? Besides, only a few of the items on our check was from Happy Hour. I can clearly see now why they are going out of business. I have been working as a server/bartender for a decade now and have never experienced anything like this at any place I have worked at or dined at. This is the first negative restaurant review I write ever. I am very understanding when it comes to my industry, but this was just unfair and silly. Sammy's Woodfire Pizza you should probably not participate in that Las Vegas gift card since you are loosing customers. Thanks for leaving a sour note on my birthday! (The Short Rib Entree sucked anyway.) Abigail your service was good, I'm sure there's better job opportunities for you than a dying company.
My 1st drink was bland, which tasted as a real carbonated water, not a soda, except the 2nd one. And, when I grabbed the first slice of my pizza, many toppings fell miserably, slumped for failing to stick and stabilize. Even though the waitress I had was nice and caring, and that pizza was delicious, it wasn't too bad at all despite the harshness and flaws.
I orders the salmon on this trip thinking I’d eat healthy; the rest of the meal was pretty good and the others in my party really liked their meals (they didn’t have salmon). My salmon was dry and I’m not the type to have them redo my meal when everyone else already has their meals and is eating. Then I have to watch them eat while waiting for my fresh meal, by the time I get it, they are done and have to watch me eat. No thanks. I just make a note of the place and don’t go back or get something else if I absolutely have to go there again.
Good food, good atmosphere and friendly service.
Steven was a great server. My first time there. Food was great
Food okay, waiter was awesome, but management stunk. Would only take a gift card for full price items, not happy hour items. Our bill was $275 with some of it full price menu items and manager would not separate the bill and declined the gift card. I will be writing the corporate office. 2/5/2022 evening manager who was an asian women of no help and no customer service at all
Cute place! Great food, friendly staff, quiet, feels a little more upscale. The bartender said the full menu, which is quite large, is served 24 hours!
First time there. With a friend who's been there many times. Really good service, nice appetizers (pork pot stickers & meatballs w bread). Main meal was Angel hair pasta with shrimp, really tasty and Alan had a mushroom pizza, again cook the way he likes it. The ambience Sammy's is excellent. Low lighting, clean booths, nice table layout. Reminds me of a 50's & 60's look, but modern. The host Ann, came to every table to check in. Sorry forgot to take pics of the place. Also if you come to eat by yourself (like I do sometimes) they have a dinning bar (gaming is nextdoor), near the action of where the food is prepped. Note; you can eat out side the door entrance, they have a fire pit. Really nice.
Great food. Had Balsamic Glazed Chicken Salad and tasted the Margarita Pizza as well. Loved of the solid! Full of flavor, had basil oil in it, and it was just delicious and certainly big enough in the individual size. The pizza was good sized and I very much enjoyed the garlic sauce on it and the fresh ingredients of mozzarella, tomato and basil.A large group of us ate outside and it was a little disturbing because people used that door into the restaurant and they walk right through the middle of the good sized party that we had to avoid walking through the tavern / bar / very smokey area.
