Reviews for Sammy's Woodfired Pizza & Grill in La Mesa, CA
Like many places..the menu has many tasty dishes..and some not so good..just depends on what you order. The big problem is... staffing...specifically, they seemed understaffed which made our dining. experience really slow.. It is a place that you dontwant to give up on but you keep hoping it improves. I wouldnt risk a first date here (if I were still single) nor bring thekids if they were starving and prone to melt downs. Read more
Overdone crust and reduced amount of toppings. So overpriced for what you get. The pizza used to be delicious on a consistent... basis but it seems like they are cutting back on ingredients&quality. No mas. Read more
Absolutely cursed location. Each of the last four times I came here the service was terrible, seemingly due to staffing. The... wait at this location is routinely thirty minutes longer than the location a ten minute drive away. But what really promptsthis review is coming to a less than half full restaurant, being told to seat myself, and then sitting for fifteen minuteswithout being offered so much as a glass of water. The $25 chopped salad is great, but I?m never coming back. Read more
Ordered through Uber eats and I felt hustled. Pizza definitely isn?t the size you would expect for the price. Long story short,... I paid over $50 for two personal pizzas. Read more
Stopped here while charging at the Tesla Superchargers recently. Cute place, clean comfortable. I can't eat wheat or eggs and... still found lots to choose from. The hubs ordered a pizza and he thoroughly enjoyed it (he says it'd score a 5 out of 5). I gotthe chicken lettuce wraps, which were OH SO good! The chicken was flavorful and I do believe that was Butter Lettuce served withthem (whatever it was, it was WAY better than iceberg). They had a good drink selection. Our waiter was polite, helpful, andattentive. The bathrooms are clean (of course, I didn't actually see the men's but accepted the hubby's report on it) Inaddition to being yummy it's right beside the superchargers. We'd totally go again! I forgot to mention - 3 times I heard themanager actually THANK an employee. Three different times, three different staff members, the manager on duty said either 'thankyou' or 'I appreciate you'. That made me feel good, there's nothing worse then hearing a manager put a staffer down on the floorin front of customers. Thanks for reading my review! Read more
Be aware that the pizzas are personal size despite being $16+ each. The flavor is also very underwhelming. The sauce on the... wings was good. Read more
This is what a $10 "shareable" order of truffle fries gets you at Sammys. There is also no measurements for the pizza on the... menu and it appears the same size as a medium from most places and only 6 slices of subpar pizza. Definitely not worth the price Read more
I ordered Mushroom Orzitto which is the least expensive item and the only vegetarian option on the Pasta menu. The portion was... smallish, especially considering the price, and there being no side dish included. And $4 for a soda (even with free refills)seems a bit high. Sure, the food is a step above Olive Garden, but I think I'll take a step back until my income matches thisexpectation. Read more
