Stopped in for dinner, no wait! I ate was the lemon blueberry pancakes! 9/10 so good. Perfect balanced of lemon and blueberry. If you're looking for a good sweet breakfast for dinner or are here for breakfast, I definitely recommend. The hash-browns were alright. Pretty stiff on the top and bottom where they contacted the pan, not a nice sear but kind of tough. The inside was good but the outside was a bit too hard for me. Friendly service and lots of good parking spots! read more

I had heard it gets busy here, especially on the weekends, so I used the online waitlist. It said it was a 40 minute wait but I think it ended up being less than that. We ended up getting a booth, which was nice. Food took a little while to come out, which is to be expected with how busy they are, but everything was great. read more

I always like coming here because of the variety of items on the menu is great..breakfast, hamburgers, baked goods and beverages. The crinkle cut fries are the best. The people are very friendly and the ambiance is fun and comfortable. read more

Solid cafe with friendly service and good food. Kitchen was a little slow... but they might have been all watching the World Cup. Had the club sandwich and it was a tasty version. Milkshake was large and done old school style (a compliment) read more

Great food, generous portions, and a cozy atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly. I'll definitely be coming back!

The Sammamish Cafe used to be one of our favorite restaurants on the Plateau. However, over the last few years they've had some issues. Last night we ordered takeout. Three different egg dishes. It became apparent quickly that they were seasoned with sugar instead of salt. Completely awful. Unfortunately, because it was takeout we could not send the dishes back. Sad that the cook could not tell the difference between sugar and salt. read more

YES YES YES!!! If you are looking for comfort food or amazing pies...do yourself a favor and go right to Sammamish Cafe! This is such a fun, relaxing, and comfortable place to sit down with friends and snag a bite to eat! The servers are all very kind and the food is really full of flavor and they can substitute whatever you want to make your meal better! BUT lets get to the important part....THE PIE! These pies are so full, thick, rich, and delicious! The cream is real and not the fake spray kind and the flavor is the best! I have gotten these for birthday parties, Thanksgiving holidays, and 4th of July parties and every time I bring one people can not get enough of how good it is! Great menu, serve breakfast all day long, and great desserts - what more could you ask for!? read more

Ive been here a handful of times. I come to eat and do work when I need to be in this area. Food and service is always good. Mornings I've been, it can get busy. On this day I came during HH and it wasn't busy at all. Pretty chill. The HH menu has a good selection of food. I also ordered chipotle tacos and wings to go. The tacos were so good and I really enjoyed the chop salad while I was there. The wings were good too. I had them put the buffalo sauce on the side and by themselves they were flavorful. The pieces were a bit big for my liking but overall not bad. Until next time. read more

We have become regulars at the Sammamish cafe and have been treated so well. We know the staff well and know how hard they all work to make this place a successs. The service is top notch and the manager steps up wherever she is needed and is not above bussing tables or cleaning. She is well respected and we adore all of them. The food is fantastic and it is sometimes hard to choose what to eat. They have clam chowder on Fridays and it is delicious. My only criticism would be that the hostess who seats a table also gets drinks for the table (which if the table has 10 guests it can take forever) and that leaves people waiting too long to be seating, but that's a small price to pay for the otherwise enjoyable experience. read more

The food is pretty good, and it's a typical diner experience. The vibe is very cozy, and it's in a very nice spot. The people are very nice, too :) read more

Friendly, good home-cooked style food. Just ask them if you need something specific for your diet like gluten-free and they're happy to recommend something ambience is like a diner and we enjoy going if we want a relaxed meal. read more

Love this place so much that we've become regulars and they know our orders! Can't recommend this place enough for all times of the day!

Not going to lie, I was a little skeptical coming here. The menu in general looks a little generic and basic. But I think that's the point! They're not elaborate gourmet meals. This where you go for some basic comfort food. I ordered the fish and chips and was actually pleasantly surprised! It was pretty good! Service was great. I like the location. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because I feel like the prices are a little higher than what I would expect for basic comfort food. read more

Still my favorite brunch spot in Sammamish! We always get friendly servers and generous portions of food that I can never finish. I love the vibe here. Brunch atmosphere, very lively, extensive menu. read more

My son and I decided to stop here for an early dinner after flute practice at Moore Brother Music next door. We were warmly greeted by a wooden bear, then a kind human. We were quickly seated in a window seat and were greeted by a kind and adept server. She knew to bring a drink refill without even being asked. Nice attentiveness. My son ordered a regular cheese burger and I ordered a lettuce wrapped Dr. Praeger Veggie Burger. Both were tasty and fresh and we left happy and satiated. read more

It is a nice place to have lunch or dinner with friends as the place was not noisy. I came here to meet with our church group and I am glad they picked this place because of its relaxed atmosphere and good food. I had Malibu chicken burger and it was tender and juicy. It consists of chicken breast topped with ham, cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomato, pickles and mustard on a ciabatta bun. I accompanied it with green salad with my burger. Our server was friendly, helpful and attentive. We came here for dinner on a weekday and parking was plentiful. read more

It's a great breakfast diner on the Eastside. Place is family friendly and very welcoming atmosphere in Sammamish plateau. Staffs are friendly and very attentive to your table. We've all ordered half breakfast items and all came with side dishes that were ample to fill you up. Omelette and breakfast Benedict sandwiches were all freshly made. Bacon and ham were cooked to perfection. There is ample parking in the mall. If you're in the area and looking for a relaxing PNW vibe diner, check out Sammamish Cafe. Bon appetite! read more

Came here to grab a bite to eat after arriving in Seattle. They have a good size menu with many options to choose from from breakfast food to dinner and lunch. They serve all foods all day long and what i had was delicious. Addiiotnslly their drinks are great too and they don't skimp on the liquor lol. It has a diner feel to it but is very large and not loud. read more

Hands down the best breakfast for dinner place in the area. This place is a local chain with a couple locations around the Seattle area, all with different names, but the same menu. I love this place because they serve breakfast for dinner which is one of my favorite meals that's hard to come across. I honestly don't think the food is exceptional or anything, but really good quality for a place serving a wide selection of dishes. I've been to this location and many of their other ones many times and I can say it's pretty hit or miss knowing you can either get really hot and fresh food with quick service, or be waiting an hour to receive cold food. That being said I give this place 5 stars just due to their ability to serve breakfast for dinner and would recommend it for a breakfast dinner, and less of a brunch place knowing there's better breakfast in the area. read more

Hostess was odd, and waitress is good. Dine-in around 6:30 pm. Seated by window booth, place was dirty, looks like they don't bother to clean up after breakfast/brunch hours. I can see falling food such as dust/greasy, m&m candy, fries and crumbs on the ground by window shelves. Bloody Mary is good, Mango Margarita was blah! Foods was way too salty for pot roast, I wouldn't call it "Seattle's Best Pot Roast" and waited for 20-30minutes for this. read more

I waited about 5 visits before writing this because I know some businesses have bad/off days and I really like these kinds of diners. The food is variable in quality from very good to great. The portions vary depending on what day you come in. Will not return and tell all my friends that say, "it looks good" that the food is good but it's not worth it for the bad service. Place is clean though. read more

Ok one more EDIT.... A few months ago I did something I really didn't want to do.....I wrote an unfavorable review. For some treason one of our favorite restaurants had taken a nosedive in quality in several respects. A huge downturn in service friendliness and in the food served. Well, something changed and a massive turnaround happened. Someone listened! We have even there probably five times in the past Otho and all is FIVE STARS! Except for one thing......the RESTROOMS! They have been in DEPLORABLE condition! Not always but too often to be acceptable. Problems include.....no toilet paper or seat cover. Floor soaker with urine! And just filthy everything. I know...one patron can trash it in one visit. Kids are the worst! I suspect you follow a schedule but it obviously needs more monitoring. Not an easy task but much needed. Again your improvements are commendable! read more

LONG WAIT ON SHORTEST DAY IN THIS SEMI-SWANKY SIT-DOWN JOINT Actually, closer to 3 1/2 stars. An old friend and his wife invited me to come to dinner with them on December 21, 2023. They took me to the Sammamish Café in Sammamish WA. This was on a Thursday night. Nevertheless, we did have to wait about 20 minutes before we could be seated. But that was fine as we just simply took a little walk around the shopping center for about 10 minutes before returning to the restaurant. About 10 minutes or so later, the name of our group was called. If we had to wait 20 minutes on a Thursday night, I can only imagine the wait on a Friday or Saturday night would've been longer. DECEPTIVELY QUIET ATMOSPHERE BELIED THE CROWD? OR WAS I DISTRACTED BY ROSES? But the generous portion of their delicious grilled chicken salad was worth it, as well as the camaraderie I had with my friends. The atmosphere was also suitable for me. But it did take a while for us to get waited upon and an even longer while before our order arrived. But the waiter said the place was fairly crowded, even though it did not seem crowded enough to justify that long a wait. It just did not seem that noisy. You be the judge as I took a photo inside the restaurant. But because I enjoyed being with my friends, it was not too big a deal. (this was a rare occasion in which I actually stopped to smell the roses). But once the food came, I considered the whole experience worth it. My friend treated me, so therefore I did not pay close attention to the prices, but they seemed to be moderately priced. GREAT FOOD! GIVE'EM A PASS WITH THE WAIT, BUT WE WERE A LITTLE WINCY RE: NO APPLEPAY We were kind of disappointed that they do not accept Apple Pay. The Digitally dexterous millennials and generation Z crowd (who can tap out a text message with one hand) may not care, but us fumble-fingered baby boomers, consider having to dig our credit cards out of our wallets a "pay cut." In my book, If they did have mobile pay (Apple Pay and Google pay) and the wait were not so long, that would have bumped them up to an overall 5 stars. But they do get five stars in the food quality department. (so THAT'S explains the long wait!) Bon appétit! read more

Needs more hot sauce options! At least Cholula. Will get into the great things about Sammamish cafe in a moment but first, I want to voice my only criticism: Needs more hot sauce selections. While this may be our go-to breakfast location, it has the worst hot sauce selection of any breakfast place in the area only has tabasco and tapatio on request. Hot sauce aside, Sammamish Cafe has everything else i look for in a breakfast place. Great service, friendly staff, online waitlist, best breakfast food in the area (and i think i have tried almost everything), good atmosphere, strong coffee, good mimosas. read more

We came for brunch on a Saturday and it was packed! Thankfully seating at the bar is walk in so we were able to get a seat quickly. The service was friendly and prompt. We started with a mimosa and an Earl Grey based cocktail (I can't find the name of it on the menu). The Earl Grey was pretty interesting as it had the taste of the tea, and also the lemonade but also the taste of the alcohol - we were not so sure it all came together into one unified drink but are happy that we tried it. The waffle with the heated syrup was a nice touch. The waffle was also different than the kind we were originally picturing but we liked it, the only thing is that it would be nice to get more than just one thin waffle in an order. We particularly enjoyed the fluffiness of the omelette. The bacon, avocado, tomato, and sour cream along with the sweet salsa tied so nicely together. The hash browns could have been crispier and we would have liked if the toast that came with the omelette was served on a separate plate and toasted more (it wasn't very crisp when we got it). read more

Wow - top notch all around the food is delicious and they do not skimp on serving size! If you are not hungry don't come here....unless you just want a nice drink in the wonderful bar or to sit on the patio soak up the filtered sunlight. They are crowded at the normal times you would expect for a larger breakfast place...aka mid-morning to early afternoon but we were seated pretty quickly. We've eaten the breakfast duo, which is 2 breakfast sandwiches on english muffins with a fruit cup, the sandwiches were perfect. We also had a traditional club which was also delicious. read more

Relaxed cafe based on lunch and dinner visits. Noisy inside at 1/4 or 1/2 capacity. Food is just OK based on a small sample size. $70 for a burger and salad is a lot. I know that food and employee costs have gone up, but still... I've heard and read on Yelp that breakfasts are this cafe's thing, and that they are very popular for that. I was unable to get a wine list. Having our server verbally rip off this long list of choices at lightning speed was unhelpful. I was also unable to pay using my phone which was also unhelpful. Please join the nearly every other business in the US which accepts electronic payments. This restaurant is a couple minutes from the house. It's quick and convenient to us but doesn't entice us to return often. read more

I love diner food, but not my recent lunch here, and i don't understand why the long queue when other places also have good food and similar ambiance. To the Cafe's credit, their reservation system works well. Your entire party just gotta be there when they call and start your 30-minute countdown. Post-pandemic though, prices have gone way up, and the portions of fish in my fish-and-chips had gone down. What was once one fillet about 8 ounces came as three 2-3 ounce pieces, over-breaded and over-fried, but billed on the register tape as "4 Fish & Chips"--which i noticed only after leaving. I did see immediately, the ordinary food-service-quality coffee billed at $3.95 each. The relaxing casual ambiance ought be even nicer and the queue shorter when they can seat on their outdoor deck. Don't go until then. read more
