Food was good and service was really great. Will be back. Had a simple breakfast bacon, eggs, sour dough toast and potatoes.

Tried this place out because I was craving some eggs Benedict. The English muffins at the bottom were nice and soft, the ham on top of the muffin was thick and seasoned well, and the eggs came out just like I requested...over medium. Wish the hollandaise was slightly thicker but it was flavored well. Hubby got the chicken fried steak andd that he said it was worth coming back to get again. read more

Everything I have had here was good! Breakfast, lunch all very good!. Had their Mexican breakfast twice! Breakfast enchiladas are great. Sandwich's are great! read more

I've been coming here for about 2 years now. It was one of the better priced breakfast places around. And from one week till the next there prices went up $2-$5 on their menus with little orange stickers over the old price. Their breakfasts combo went up $4. I find it crazy to raise their prices so much. So I'll not be going back having to pay $20 for eggs,bacon, potato's and a pancake. Every person that sat down complained to the serves about the prices. I don't see them lasting much longer. read more

Prices are fair food is diner food portions are generous. restaurant needs a little makeover or freshen up but other than that the service was great. read more

Ok. You get nice portions, but it lacks flavor. Got the French toast combo. The French toast was good. The syrup was kinda thin. The country potatoes were bland. The potatoes had big pieces of bell pepper. I ordered over medium eggs, came out on the edge of over hard. Not much yolk dipping. My wife got the 2 egg breakfast. Again, hash browns had no flavor. We got some salsa to mix in our food. The salsa is good. The sausage and bacon were pretty good. The service was very good. Very pleasant people. The building is clean and is a nice atmosphere. read more

Good service. But don't order eggs rancheros .the salsa is ok but it also has chili beans.some people may like it but not good. My husband had eggs and home potatoes he did not like it was not good either. read more

I love this place! The servers and staff are so nice. The food is well portioned and good. The "diner" ambiance is fun and casual. They have American and Mexican foods available. Danielle is my favorite server. read more

When I come home from LA, I like to leave the city early and get a start home. Using Yelp, I pick out a restaurant somewhere in the Foothill communities--preferably a mom and pop locals place. I bookmarked Sammy's and entered in on my GPS unit. As a tip to others, the entrance is on the west side of the building. Sammy's is in a corner building of a retail center. Once I figured out where I needed to go, things were OK. The counter person seated me immediately and left menus with me. A runner came to offer coffee before I had much time to look at the menus. There is a lot for breakfast. I opted for the Carmen omelette--having sour cream, cheddar cheese, Spanish sauce, green chili, and avocado. I had a choice of potato and chose the hash browns. For my toast, I chose rye which is my normal choice. I had a coffee refill before my omelette came. That doesn't indicate a long wait. That's because I drank it quickly and there was a person circulating refilling coffee for customers. The omelette had a bit of spiciness to it from the Spanish sauce and the green chili that I didn't need to ask for Cholula or Tapatio. Again my coffee was refilled. Since there are a number of places for pity stops on the way home, this was fine. Total cost with tax--$13.99--a normal breakfast price and good value for the meal. Sammy's is a good stop in Upland area. read more

Ambiance is basic diner but place is clean and staff is friendly and helpful.. tends towards an older croud, but they offer something for everybody... blinzes are lovely and their mexican food is very nice. I love their salsa. Home town items like meatloaf and burger are enjoyable too. read more

Delicious diner fare! Friendly, fast service. Whenever I'm craving crispy hash browns and perfect pancakes, I go to Sammy's. read more

I was very happy with all the food here! We tried the pork chop and meatloaf dinners. Both come with a side of either garlic bread or corn bread. The garlic bread is like texas toast. It is on a thicker slice of bread that was soft and chewy. The cornbread is a smooth (rather than crunchy) texture and comes with butter. The pork chops (two pieces) were seasoned and juicy. It comes with mixed veggies and mash potatoes (it's a good mash) with a white gravy. The yummy meatloaf (two slices) comes with mixed veggies and mash potatoes, all with brown gravy. I am sure you can ask for alterations if you wanted. It is part of an outdoor mall so there is lots of parking. And it might be a little confusing, but it shares the same standalone building with another restaurant, so keep going around the building, it is there! If I am in town again, I would definitely stop by. Check out the menu, there's a little something for everyone! read more

The food is delicious, and the customer service is pretty good. I was sat down and taken care of immediately, and ambiance is oldies diner type. Definitely recommend! I got the Aztec breakfast and pancakes. read more

Came here twice by an app's recommendation. First time was just one other person and myself and service was prompt, polite, and fun. It was very busy that day. Food was pretty good. Second time I came was with four other adults, and we had two children with us. I was not impressed. It wasn't as busy, but service didn't seem quite as attentive. My wife and I wanted our side replaced with other things. I was replacing toast with a fruit bowl. I didn't know the fruit bowl would be mostly cantaloupe which I don't like. That was my blunder, I should have asked. My skillet's eggs were bland but the rest of the skillet was great. My wife was substituting tortillas with fries. Both the toast and tortillas were subbed with fruit bowls. At first we thought the extra fruit bowl was just a nice gesture, but when we asked if we could get the fries we asked for, we were told she didn't put the fries on the order because it would be really big. So quite literally our order was changed for us without our approval or input. My wife's re-fried beans were way too salty. She also told me she was supposed to get breakfast potatoes with her plate, but there were fries on her plate instead? It's all so very confusing. If we get that server again, I'll ask for a new one or leave. The food isn't good enough to deal with service like that. P.S. my mom had to ask for her garlic bread twice before she got it. read more

Have eaten here a couple dozen times and I have always felt well served and the weekday breakfast is a winner. Recently a neighbor who would eat in shop 2-3 times a week had surgery and after inquiring they made sure I could pick up her senior orders for her to pay in cash. Everyone is great here and it it appreciated. read more

My family and I visit Sammy's Cafe at least once a week for either breakfast, lunch or dinner. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious.

Nothing spectacular or to rave over about. The restaurant is very clean and dated. Waitress was extra nice and kept the drinks coming. Food was meh. Refried beans and rice was dry and enchiladas was lacking red sauce. Pork chops was on the salty side. Portions was on the bigger side - God blessed obese America. read more

Went here by accident. So, how does a person get here by accident you ask? While looking for another place to eat, you accidentally turn around in this parking lot and decide to try this restaurant. Why Not. Glad we came here. Nice design of this place, cool decorations and wonderful people that work here. Bacon, eggs, country styled potatoes and then I throw in all my hot sauces... plus ketchup. Glad we stopped by. read more

Yet another Breakfast Day out. Sigh, I did it because I am collecting way too many bookmarks. Yeah, right. Sammy's is a cute, bright, spankin' clean, newish café right along historic Route 66. They have an extensive breakfast/lunch/dinner menu that competes with Denny's and Coco's in my humble opinion. Our first meal impression was just OK. Not enough to keep us coming back, but not so awful that we wouldn't try it again. Mr. B's Breakfast enchilada was a belly flop. It was filled with ground beef and eggs and pico de gallo, topped with an enchilada sauce and cheese, with beans and potatoes for sides. The meat was unflavored and uninspired. Disguising it as an enchilada proved nothing. It is one of a substantial list of Mexican entrees on their menu but poorly represents this area where more authentic ethnic food offerings can be found on every corner. Too bad. My dish was better. A huge breakfast that included two strips of crispy bacon (crazy good tasting but not smoked), two link sausage (also good flavor), and a scramble that had ham, cheese, real mushrooms, onion (next time it needs to be cooked longer) added in. The country potatoes were sliced thinly but cooked nicely. I substituted pancakes for the toast/biscuit. While small, especially after having just visited Red Hill Coffee Shop where the pancakes are the size of hub caps, these two were light and tender. The flavor could have been greater, possibly because I was disappointed they came topped with margarine, but glad I tried them. Overall, our experience justified why I would stick with their more Americanized dishes (turkey, meatloaf, pot pie, pot roast, soups and sandwiches). For those over 55, and for kids too, they had discounted lists of entrees that seemed interesting. Sometimes, simple, plain food has its appeal. read more

Good food, coffee, service, very polite, friendly remembers their regulars. Alot of food for the price

So... First time here... Probably not the last. Classic diner with plenty of seats Pros: Very friendly service: lots of smiles Clean restroom!!!! Very fast service: breakfast plate was in front of me within 5 minutes Food quality was good and portions were just right...I had $4.99 weekday breakfast special bacon, eggs, potatoes, and toast ) English muffin for me) Coffee is very good. Hot, Fresh and plenty of it! Just want I want from a breakfast diner Cons: (only here because it is a review and it could be improved) Despite the very good cleanliness of the entire restaurant the carpet needs to be shampooed! Oh... It's also kinda hidden... On west side of a free standing building just west of the gas station. Really that's it! I'm not a complainer! I will be back! Thank you for a very nice experience! read more
