I had the lobster bisque instead of the house salad with my meal (chicken penne). Service was great. The food is good but nothing spectacular. I can see myself coming here for a quick bite whenever I'm visiting the area. read more

Food is really great! The gluten free crab cakes were delicious. Server was so sweet.

The restaurant was busy but we were seated immediately, had some really good bread brought out and our food was out within 10 minutes of being there. The food was amazing and they give you plenty of it. The staff was very nice as well. Will definitely be back! read more

This was our first visit but so far it's exceeded my expectations!!! From the Food to the Service to the Ambience !!! It was all Amazing!!!! Thank you for such great food and service, it was such a pleasure for the entire family!!! read more

Very good food! It is very close to where I live too so that makes it extra nice. The staff are very friendly.

Food is amazing been plenty of times...but for your service and who ever answered the phone your restaurant should get less than a star. If someone calls and you LITERALLY tell them a time when y'all are closing. And we get there 35 mins before y'all close and then y'all lock the doors and go uhhhhhh yeah we decided to close early when we call. When y'all have so many cars still in the parking lot. We drove over 33 mins to get to your establishment. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE... Had to sit in your parking lot for 30 mins calling places on who was open. Thank you for ruining our day. read more

Our food took forever to arrive and when it did it was cold and not at all appetizing. When we complained to the manager they didn't care and was quite rude. We used to frequent regularly but will never go back. read more

Amazing food! Great service! Teriyaki chicken and mashed potatoes are AMAZING! I could literally eat this every day!!! So yummy

If they had 10 stars I would give it to them.. the service was the best by far I've had and that's saying a lot being tho I travel as much as I do. I wish I would've gotten the gentleman's name when we went, but the energy is 1 of 1 so chances are if you go you'll get to see him in action. The food is as amazing starting with the appetizer we had the shrimp... very well executed and hit on every cylinder. Then the lobster bisque was very tasty and served at the perfect temperature.. finally my entree the stuffed trout I believe, it was so perfectly seasoned and the sauce I could tell was made fresh to order which they are known to do with every order. It's rare to go to a place now days and to say it everything was good. I will recommend for sure and will find myself becoming a regular here thank you for all you do as a whole. read more

Last nights birthday dinner at Sammy G's was absolutely amazing. I wish I had more of that Tavern Chicken. All around, it was very tasty. The only thing I didn't understand on the dish was the sliced tomato. I ate it all still because it was just that good. The server did very well with our party of 10. Due to my friends bday, they brought her out these yummy puffed donut inspired pastries. I'll go back just for those, but couldn't find the name of the dessert on the menu itself. Thanks for a wonderful night. read more

Sammy G's is one of my favorite places. Such a great menu- shrimp tacos are my favorite! We always have excellent service- wait staff is very knowledgeable of menu and can always make suggestions or recommendations. read more

I had the salmon and a few appetizers. The shrimp appetizer was delicious while the calamari was a little too done. My main course of Salmon, sautéed spinach and corn was perfection. I had a Hibiscus margarita too which was amazing. Highly recommend here! read more

We went here to celebrate my husband's birthday, and I'm pretty sure we were their first patrons of the evening! Our waiter said he'd worked here for 13 years (let's take a moment and respect!!!) and he was very attentive. I had melt-in-your-mouth ribs, and my husband ordered the pork chop. As good as my dinner was, I had a righteous case of food-envy!! Thankfully he's a good sharer! read more

Excellent spot for a large group. Good food and great service. For the past three years we have taken a group of athletes here while in NC for a competition, and the service is always good and the food delicious. They take reservations in advance which is really helpful, and they have our table for 20 ready for us when we arrive. The meals are all plentiful which is good when traveling with high school athletes! The menu had a good variety of food which pleased everyone. I had the salmon and it was very good. The server was attentive, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. Highly recommend. read more

Excellent place to eat. Food is fresh and inventive. I have eaten many things on the menu and not once did they disappoint. Service is great and all staff are friendly. Great ambience and food. Highly recommended! read more

High Point keeps surprising me! This restaurant is a vast improvement over another establishment that was located on this property a few years ago! The decor is nothing special, but it's clean and updated and the bathroom is well maintained. The wait staff and front of the house staff are friendly and warm. We were here for a surprise birthday party and were seated way before our guest of honor was to arrive. We had the Trio Dip appetizer while we waited. It consists of about a cup each of guacamole, bean and queso and freshly fried corn chips (8.99). The guacamole was tasty but missing those nice chunks of avocado that I like. It was basically green and not very appealing. The chips were crisp and not overly salted. My entree was the FRATELLIS Steak Salad. Somebody tell me what that means because Google says it's a Scottish band. The Salad consisted of mixed greens, Granny Smith apples, dried cranberries, mozzarella & feta cheese, candied pecans and a fratellis house dressing (11.99). It was topped with a tender thinly sliced steak. It was delicious with so many flavors mixed in every bite. The dressing is a mix between Italian and sweet balsamic. Get it on the side as they tend to over dress the salads. My husband had the Crab Caesar but substituted grill chicken for the grilled crab cake. The Salad came with romaine hearts, creamy caesar dressing, diced bacon, parmesan and herb croutons, parmesan cheese (9.89). The chicken was tender, moist and served warm on the salad. All in all we were well taken care of and the portions were a good value and not too huge. I took half my Salad home and it was good the next day. We waited a bit for our food but the company was good so I didn't mind much. The group agreed the food was good but not necessarily memorable . I recommend this place if you're passing through High Point. read more

Consistently delicious food tailored to the way you want it cooked. Service is terrific. It's a warm setting to relax in with friendly waiters every time we go. Quality ingredients make all the difference. read more

Came here for a birthday party one evening, first time trying it out. Ended up getting the special of the night, mahimahi with 2 sides! It was sooo delicious, and fresh tasting! Will definitely have to come back out here and check this place out as a date night. It is a tad bit pricy so I'm keeping it for the special occasions! read more

Decent experience. So we decided we would try out this very established establishment on a cold winter night. Our server was spectacular, like super professional, I could tell he was in the industry for years. So the lobster bisque, was above average, but not the best, it was a bit cold. The steak, was however great, I enjoyed the tenderness and the Smokey tones of the meat. The star of the show was the desert. Which was the banana foster, the bread was actually banana bread. I highly recommend that. 5 stars for the desert, 4 stars for the steak but, 2 stars for the soup. It was a snow day and I understand and have no issue with the fact that it took forever for my food to get here. I will return one day when it sunny. read more

Well rounded menu! We had both salmon dishes and they were great. Super friendly service. And for the higher end items on the menu we thought their price points were very reasonable. Great vibe! read more

Sammy G's has a nice environment to eat but the eats just aren't that good. Wife and I both tried the surf and turf. Both steaks were not cooked as ordered - twice. In all my years of eating out, that has never happened. For the money, we certainly expected more. Manager assisted in replacing our steaks, but the meat was just not good. Also, the shrimp had no flavor. Perhaps just a bad night for the cook, but we'll probably never return for a second chance especially not at their price point. read more

In town for business, we were recommended Sammy's from the hotel. Man....am I glad they sent us there! Upscale atmosphere, friendly service, and the food was VERY well prepared. The salmon came recommended by the bartender, and was delicious. Will definitely stop again when staying in the area. read more

Food was delicious. Nice portion sizes. Especially for the fish sandwich. Service was friendly and prompt.

Food was very well prepared. Fried calamari and French fries were not at all greasy! Good prices for excellent food. Our server, Hootie, was very attentive and quick. Unfortunately the kitchen was a little behind and it took a bit longer for our entrees but it was worth the wait! read more

Wife and I decided to drop in for an early dinner. Service was good and the food was great, I had the fried flounder and shrimp. Needed a bit more seasoning, but other than that was awesome. read more

Pleasant atmosphere and varied menu plus a very friendly staff who remain vigilant to the customers' needs.

The food was outstanding but it appears this restaurant is having the same problems others in the service industry are having. Good servers are in high demand. Again, the food was outstanding but the whole experience is ruined with below average service...bordering on poor. read more

Average food. Menu is nothing to write home to mom about! The one thing that I do not like is there are no strong pasta dishes. I ordered an Irish coffee and you'd think they would make an expensive drink with fresh hot coffee. Not the case. read more

Nice spot for pretty good food. Everything we had was pretty good, the waiter was really Honest about what to get and what was not that great. read more

Consistency is their superpower, I don't frequent often and when I do, never an issue - hats off to Sammy G's

Our absolute favorite place to eat in High Point. Jeff takes great care of us our favorite server. Everything on the menu is fantastic!

Great spot in Highpoint, NC. Stopped by on our way south and glad we did. We were seated right within our reservation time at 7 pm. We had a party of 8 and the service was excellent. We had the Onion straws, pretzel and house chips apps and they were excellent. Great selection of local beers. The pineapple glazed ribs and fried shrimp combo was excellent. Will definitely be back. read more

Great food and the service is impeccable. Very good drink prices as each day has a drink special. Food is always served hot and delicious

Excellent food. I had the fried green tomatoes. They came with a jalapeño Jan and pimento spread. All home made. The jam gave it pop and the spread gave it acid and creaminess. I love green tomatoes but they become uninteresting after awhile but not with these toppings. I polished it off quick. Next came Stuffed flounder ( with crab and shrimp). I was afraid to order this because it is usually a frozen crappy restaurant supply item but not here. It's made in house. Flounder was tender and soft and he stuffing was actually a crab cake - also home made. Delicious. Oh..... and a great selection of local brews on tap. read more

Horrible experience. If you don't have the staff to handle the HP market close part of the restaurant. It to 75 minutes to get our salads, 85 min to get out appetizer, and 2 hours to get our food. Then one of the dishes had hair in it. Horrible managed restaurant. read more

I'm town for a conference and stopped here at Sammy G's for dinner and wow. So good! The service was incredible. McKenzie was our server and she really took care of us. I went for the pork chop after the busser/SA described it to me, and it was delicious! My friend ordered the lobster bisque and that too was fantastic. Big thank you to McKenzie for making our impromptu stop for dinner turn out to be the highlight of our night! read more

I have been going to Sammy G's since they opened. I have never given a bad review. My friends and I went last night for dinner. We arrived and ordered by 6:30. At 8:00 pm we received our food. My friend asked our server (Jeffrey is was wonderful) if we could see the manager. The manager walked over a few minutes later, asked us what how we were doing. My friend told him we had waited 1.5 hours for our dinner and could he compensate us somehow. His response was "well we are busy". My friend said "where" as the bar had numerous empty tables. So regardless of whether they were busy it was not a good response and was inappropriate. As someone that deals with customers on a daily basis, the first thing you do when you walk up to a table is to introduce yourself and ask what the issue or problem is with our visit. And, you immediately should apologize and say you are sorry for the bad experience and try to appease the customer. He didn't introduce himself, he walked away and said I'll take care of it with no apology. We had to ask our server for the manager's name. For the first time since 2009 I don't plan a visit back all because of Chuck the manager who has no people skills and had the attitude that our experience doesn't matter. read more

Sammy G's is our favorite restaurant in High Point! Food and service is always excellent. Dema is especially good as bartender/waitress. We usually eat there for a late lunch which makes it quieter. It can be noisy at night. I love salmon and that's about all I get there but vary the sides. I've never been disappointed. My husband has tried many different items and has always been satisfied. I'm always hesitant to recommend places because people have different tastes and expectations, but Sammy G's is one restaurant I'm not afraid to recommend! read more

One of the best meals I had in High Point. The calamari is a must! The shrimp tacos were overflowing with ingredients. The food was absolutely delicious! read more

Very disappointed with the service and food. We came out for lunch on Sunday and were seated promptly. Waitress was nice and took our drink order. Pretzel app was good but we got that before our drinks... Service was very very slow. Took a while to refill empty drinks. Food finally came and was cold. Waitress had to be flagged down to address problem. Asked for ranch a couple times with we never did get any. Asked for fresh fries and after 15 min or so we did receive fresh fries but long after we had already finished the rest of our meal. This restaurant was too expensive for the outcome to be this. We probably won't be back. read more
