The steak had more fat than meat. The muscle clam pasta was horrible. Frozen muscles Texture like bubblegum. Pasta sitting in a pool of water it was so over cooked it melts in your mouth I’m a bad Way…..

Sammy G’s has never failed us! The food, the service and the ambience are the best! The Calamari is one of the best prepared calamari I’ve had; lightly breaded and very tender! Mario, our waiter was attentive and his recommendations were spot on.

Experienced great food and service during the multiple past times dining at Sammy G’s, and therefore surprised tonight to receive such a mediocre service and meal, especially when entertaining my sister and her husband visiting from the UK. Our waiter (H) got the one beer drink order wrong and then my entree mixed up, so my two guests had finished their meals by the time my replacement entree was served (which was the special and bland). Then, he totally forgot we were celebrating a birthday even though we had notified the maitre de on check in. I won’t be in a hurry to return.

We requested an indoor table and had a lovely booth. Thanks for that. Shortly after we were seated, two groups of 6 came into our section. Both were celebrating things. The fun and energy was high at their tables. It was hard for us to have a nice catch up visit. No one's fault! We still had an enjoyable evening. Thanks to a great staff!

Lovely restaurant with relaxed ambiance and really great service. It’s popular so you’re likely to need to book at weekends. The food was ok. Some a bit weird, like shrimp cocktail that was four shrimps in a watery sauce with no dipping bread. The chicken masala (a top seller) was also in a watery sauce, served with three half small potatoes and a few asparagus spears, covered in tonnes of mushrooms. Go, but stick to the calamari, then try the pizza or pasta dishes.

We had a great meal there last night. Both food and service were great. My only advice for the restaurant would be to get rid of the green concoction that they serve with bread and replace it with butter or some good olive oil to dip the bread in.

The service was very good, especially given that the wait staff had tables in different areas of the restaurant. Our food came out hot and everything tasted great. It was loud, made it difficult to have a conversation. The prices were much higher than on the Open Table app. The restaurant should update the prices, so people don't get sticker shock when they open the menu!

Some of the best Italian food I’ve had since being home from Italy. It was right there alongside the best meal we ate while we were there. The amaretto/cookies they brought out at the end of our meal also made for a very authentic Italian dining experience as well. Best food we’ve had since being in the Palm Springs area since May.
