Sammy G's Tavern

I had a big party of people so I really got a good feel for how the meals looked and how the waitress responded to our requests; AMAZING!I had brunch in mind but others wanted the main menu. The brunch menu was very limited but I was feeling more like brunchy eggy stuff. Almost everyone else went w the main menu. I was a little disappointed in the limited brunch menu as I had specifically come in at brunch hour which goes on till 2:00pm. I ordered crab Benedict and fruit. When it came it looked lonely sitting on the plate w no garnishes and fruit was meh. That cost $18.99. The Benedict was good though. Most folks meals started w a salad and various main meals came out next. Made me wish I had ordered from the main menu.The waitress was very good with getting all the meals and drinks out in a timely fashion, no complaints from anyone. Just 1 server was able to handle our table of 14 people! Kudos to her!Sammy Gs is a great lunch or dinner restaurant with a full bar. I recommend checking it out! They have lotsa good food and friendly staff.

3 /12 starsCame here to celebrate a birthday with a group of 7.They immediately seated us upon arrival per our reservation time.The food and drink service was pretty fast once it got going.The room we were seated in didn't have as much ambiance as the rest of the restaurant. It was a back room with about 4 long tables for larger parties. The only problem was that the lighting in this room is very bright compared to the rest of the restaurant. If it could just be dimmed it would make it feel like you weren't in a dining hall. That's basically the only thing I don't like about the venue.Everyone seemed generally happy with their dinners. Nothing amazing but good all around. We had meals ranging from the salmon, chicken teriyaki, pasta, and rib eye. One member of our party commented that the pasta sauce tasted "milky" versus flavorful. They bring little bread rolls with butter to the table to accompany the meal. Some meals came with salad. I asked for no onions; there were onions.I mentioned to the server it was birthday dinner for someone in our party. They brought out a complimentary dessert for the birthday guest which was very nice.

We were a pretty big group who went for brunch on a Sunday and our server was pretty impressive. She remembered our orders when food was being served and didn't make any mistake when she returned each of our credit cards. I love their bread, sweet and bite size. The Crab Cake Benedict didn't disappoint, quite tasty and fresh. Seafood cravings satisfied. Be careful when driving into the parking lot from the left side facing the restaurant. No one was harmed haha, but a few of us hit the curb since it's hard to see. Not the restaurant's fault!

Food is always on point here, once again portions size is not in your favor if you eat a lot like me. I order my go-to, which is the stuff flounder it's always on point. You get fresh bread which melts in your mouth, the salad is always on point I eat that with thousands island, didn't order an appetizer this time, order a dessert which was the foster, moist pound cake with bananas Carmel and topped with icecream. 5 star environment, bigger portion for entrée and this would be a 5 star review, for 25 dollars for the stuffed flounder i remeber it being more. Service is always great here

Attended my husband's work company holiday dinner and our meals were delicious , as always. Sammy G's in one of my favorite High Point restaurants. The staff and service is top notch and they take great care of you. We always leave satisfied and full. Our tables were filled with a few round of appetizers . One of the appetizers that stood out was the Thai shrimp .It's one of my go to apps. It's covered in this creamy Thai sauce & has so much flavor. Some places call it bang bang shrimp. As our main course , I had the crab stuffed flounder. I recommend this dish to anyone who loves seafood and fish in general. This came with sautéed shrimp ,spinach , and asparagus on top, mixed in this creamy sauce . The flounder was very good and the crab really paired well with all of the different flavors and textures in this dish. My husband got the steak and shrimp as dinner .The steak was flavorful and not tough . It paired well with the 2 sides that it came with . We finished off with the tuxedo cake. The marbled cake was very moist & had chocolate ganache with tiny crunched pretzels around it .

I had a wonderful dining experience at Sammy G's, where the amiable and accommodating service made all the difference. From the moment we walked in, the staff went above and beyond, even replacing a spilled sample from our beer flight without hesitation. It's those little touches that elevate the experience.The timing of our visit was perfect for the Half-Price Wine Night, so I indulged in a 9 oz glass of the Reisling and the pour wasn't stingy. I also highly recommend the Hibiscus Margarita--refreshing, vibrant, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness.For the main course, the Blackened Salmon was, as always, perfectly cooked. The seasoning was on point, and the fish was moist and flaky. Don't overlook the Creamed Corn and Spinach accompaniment--it's a surprisingly delightful (perhaps not for kids ) pairing that adds richness to the dish. The Crab Cakes were another highlight, filled with plenty of crab meat and minimal filler. While they were tasty, I'd personally recommend serving them with a remoulade rather than the standard tartar sauce to complement the crab's delicate flavor.The Brussels sprouts were just a touch too crispy for my taste. Still, the smoky bacon flavor made up for any slight over-crispiness.Overall, it was a great experience with great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

Sammy G's is a well-loved local establishment in the north High Point area, and the namesake is that of Sammy Giannopolous, a well-loved restaurateur in the Triad. You can find his fingerprints all over this tavern with several dishes clearly inspired by his original Italian restaurant up the road Gianno's (though that has since changed hands). There is a bit of an Italian flair to this tavern, though you can certainly find American favorites like burgers, fish and chips, etc. as well.We visited a few days before Christmas last year, and the joint was decorated for the season and hoppin! Our server was attentive without being overly so, and all the dishes came out in a timely fashion. We had an order of the house chips as an appetizer, and they definitely don't short you on the portion here for these. The chips were crispier, which I like, I am not one for floppy chips.Dinner came with a house salad, greens were fresh, and I was happy to see that the creamy italian dressing that I grew to love at Gianno's was here for the taking. For dinner I had the stuffed flounder, and while it wasn't disappointing, I was hoping for a bit more flavor from the sauce. Flounder and shrimp are of course kind of bland on their own, could have benefitted from more zing. Overall, I was pleased though.Sammy G's is a great place to take a group or a date anytime of year, and the menu has enough variety to please any palette. We'll come again sometime!

Sammy G's has the best selection in their menu; from appetizers to salads to sandwiches and burgers to steaks !!! And, as a bonus, they also offer Brunch on Sunday !!! Plus every meal that I have ever eaten has been a wonderful experience !!! From the chicken and waffles to a delicious filet mignon !!! If you're looking for great food and service you should try Sammy G's .

First visit but not our last ! Enjoyed a tasty and satisfying meal of Blackened mahi, with Parmesan creamed corn, and a house salad with their own Creamy Italian dressing. The wife's dish differed only with Salmon. All very delicious and served quickly. Finishing with a sinful Bananas Foster (Nana's Foster) for dessert. Kudos to our waitress, Charlotte, who was very pleasant and accommodating. Looking forward to our next visit and exploring the menu further.

We came here after hearing that they have gluten free crabcakes and were pleasantly surprised to find that not only do they have GF crabcakes, they are able to do many gluten free menu items. We did get the crabcakes which is an item that is very hard to find GF, and they were terrific. We also got the shrimp (not GF) which were just as tasty.We had wonderful service at the bar and our food was fast and delicious as well. We will certainly be coming back, although maybe not every week as the price was on the higher side. For that price they certainly don't skimp on portion size and quality though, so we didn't feel that Sammy G's was overpriced in anyway. The space is large and looks like a good place to bring friends or a group as well.
