Sammy's Family Restaurant — Restaurant in Toronto

I would like to comment on Chantel's review. First and formost bashing your waitress with false statements and accusations take any credibility from your review. Bluntly put you are full of it. I am a regular at Sammy's and your attack on your server Janice is just that.I have known Janice for over a year she is the most caring respectable profesional waitress I have ever met and I know she would have bent over backwards to make your visit and order right.Yes glasses get old and scratched from multible runs from dishwasher and in no way would you have been given a dirty glass. You found a hair in your salad this happens it should not but it does. Your other accusation that Janice took your plate dumped salad on new one is also false. I think you were just looking for any excuse to score a free meal or a discount. You failed to tell people you ordered take out so you did not experiance dining in. I will also stand up for each and every server and cook at Sammys as you will not find a group of more caring and hospitable people anywhere. Why dont you give them another try but I do think you owe Janice a...

I was quietly waiting in the parking lot this morning for a nearby African grocery store to open when I noticed staff from this restaurant giving me prolonged, suspicious looks despite me doing absolutely nothing wrong. Without anyone speaking to me or asking if I needed help, a man seated outside (after talking to a staff member) called the police on me.

Thankfully, the police officer who arrived quickly recognized that there was no issue and did not engage with me further. But the fact that I was reported at all simply for being present was deeply upsetting.

On a day that should’ve been joyful (my graduation), I was unfairly profiled and made to feel criminalized for no reason. I expected more humanity, respect, and basic decency. If your team is uncomfortable with people simply existing near your premises, some serious reflection and staff training are needed.

I hope this business learns to treat people with dignity...

If you’re looking for a place where the staff makes you feel like family (without the awkward Thanksgiving dinner vibes), Sammy’s Family Restaurant is the spot. From the moment I walked in, the friendly staff greeted me like I was the long-lost cousin they’ve been waiting for. The ambiance? Let’s just say it’s cozy enough to make you forget you’re not actually at home, except with better food and fewer dishes to wash.

Now, let’s talk about the calamari rings. Oh. My. Goodness. These little bites of joy were like a party in my mouth, with every ring bursting with flavor and juiciness. If you’ve ever thought, “Calamari? Meh, it’s just rubbery,” Sammy’s will change your mind and possibly your life. It’s like they took the ocean, sprinkled in some magic, and deep-fried it to perfection. I might have ordered a second round... maybe.

In short, Sammy’s isn’t just a meal—it’s an experience, and your taste buds will...
