I used to eat here all the time with family when I was younger. I'm happy to say, after more than 20 years since I had last been there, the food is still amazing and the staff is wonderful. My chicken-fried steak was tender, had a crisp coating, and wasn't dry at all. The gravy on it was equally amazing; thick, velvety, and flavorful with chunks of yummy sausage. The pancakes were fluffy and delicious, with a perfect generous amount of butter. I highly recommend stopping for a bite anytime you're anywhere near that part of Sacramento.

Great mom and pop! Excellent customer service. Food and prices deliver a great breakfast! The chicken fried steak and country gravy is bomb!
Love this place. Feel totally welcomed and comfortable. Best home cooked food. Big plates, very good prices.
Old time Greasy Spone, just what I was looking for. Went for breakfast ordered their Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs. Deliverd hot, tasty & quick. Everything was eggzactly how I liked it (see picture.) And the table (like all around me) had all the condiments I desired. The steak was so tender I didn't need to use my knife, the fork worked great.
I'll be back.

Sammy's Super Omelet- was phenomenal and the Reuben sandwich was 5stars, this is how a Reuben should be, Awesome.
I really enjoy Sammy's. It's a Sacramento landmark. They offer good home cooked style food with terrific service. This is an old school 50's or 60's diner and I love it for what it is. Good food, good people, good service at reasonable prices. You can easily pay twice as much at some swanky place to be seen. But this is a great place to catch up with an old friend over a couple eggs over easy, corned beef hash, potatoes and rye toast. I can't vouch for their lunch or dinner offerings, but this is a great hidden treasure when it comes to good old fashion breakfast places.
