"A quaint, Baltimore fine-dining establishment. The hostess and staff are all in one. The entire staff is eager to serve you. The food! I can't put in words. My meal left me in tears of enjoyment. The atmosphere is intimate and quaint, but styled for family outings. We had the Shrimp Scampi, Pappardelle Alfredo (with shrimp and crab), and the Chicken Francese. The prices are shockingly low. I would have paid $50 for my meal, EASILY! As you can tell by the tip I was blessed to give, in comparison to the bill. I asked and was given the opportunity to meet the kitchen staff! I was honored and will be going back really soon!"

"I am giving this restaurant a 4 rather than a 5 for two reasons: 1) the hostess was rather unpleasant when she discovered that our friend had asked. for a table for 2 and not for 4. This issue was quickly fixed. 2) the desserts were a little disappointing..However, the rest of our meal was delicious and we very much enjoyed the setting. We started by a large house salad and then three pasta dishes and a fish. Everything was beautifully seasoned. We had a very tasty meal."

"Thank you to the entire Sammy’s Baltimore Team for a very special rehearsal dinner celebration! The food was absolutely delicious, your staff is friendly and accommodating and your space is beautiful. Meatballs were some of the best ever, salmon, chicken parm, salad and desserts were faboulous! Our group of 60ish had an amazing time. Thank you for making it so memorable!"

"Delicious pasta and calamari. Husband loved the cocktails - boulavardier sour and Manhattan. Cozy and warm. Service was good but slowed due to show at the symphony hall. Would definitely return."

"Had a disappointing experience at Sammy's. Our table of four waited over 45 minutes for our meals. Our server was sympathetic and apologized twice, even mentioning that two other tables were also experiencing long delays. Unfortunately, no one else on staff acknowledged the situation. The food itself was fine. We had two meals that were simply rigatoni in butter sauce (for the kids) and they were far too buttery. Our other two meals were prepared well. And, very unusual for a Baltimore Italian restaurant, there was no bread served with the meal. We had a bowl of dipping oil when we arrived at the table, but perhaps the restaurant no longer serves bread. Our table was in the basement, which was far less enjoyable than the main dining room. The basement felt rough, less elegant, and much noisier. We would have considered ordering dessert, but the long wait left us pressed for time to make our next event."
