| - After reading the reviews we were on the fence about eating here, I'm glad I ignored the reviews and went in.
First off I really don't understand what all the hubub is about it not being Sammy's or that the ordering is confusing. If you have never eaten at a Fast Casual (Chipotle, Panera, Chick-Fil-a just to name a few) restaurant that has the exact same ordering process there's a sign as you walk in that tells you how to order - you grab a menu, wait your turn and order, they give you a number and they bring you your food. How is that confusing? It's called fast casual, many companies have done this Panda Inn = Panda Express, PF Chang = Pei Wei to name a couple.
Regarding it not being Sammy's. I wonder if these people complain when they go to Ruth's Chris that it's not Morton's or that McDonald's isn't Burger King. I don't get that, if you wanted Sammy's why didn't you go to Sammy's? Makes no sense. A review should be written on the restaurants merits not that its not some other restaurant. Again, glad we ignored these reviews.
Arrived as they were opening for lunch. Got in line, reviewed menu, by the time we were at the front of the line we had made-up our minds.
Gal working register was very friendly and apologized for the wait . . . this surprised me as we really were not in line that long. Long enough to make-up our minds, maybe a minute or two more.
Ordered a four cheese pizza for my 13 yo son, wife got a chicken hummus wrap and I got the mushroom pizza and hummus small plate. Thought I'd mention I was stuck between two items so I thought I'd ask the gal running the register her opinion. Gave me a great reason to order one over the other and I'm VERY glad I took her advice. Grabbed our drinks, sat down and I'd say that in about 10 minutes we had our food. Didn't seem long at all, my son even commented on how fast it was.
Pizzas were awesome and quite filling. My son who typically only likes pizza hut cheese pizza (yuk) loved his. I was only able to eat 1/2 my pizza and my son ate 3/4 of his.
Wife's wrap was great! Peppers, olives, crisp lettuce and hummus (might have been more in there). I asked her what she ranked it and she said a 10. Came with coleslaw or chips and she upgraded to fries for a buck. Fries were very good, cooked to perfection and a nice seasoning.
The hummus, damn the hummus and pita was good, so good, probably one of the best I've had and a very healthy portion (see picture). So much in-fact that I after the pita slices were gone I used pizza crust to finish every last bit. LOVED THE HUMMUS!!!!
Food a 10!
Now the misc. items:
Staff was friendly and helpful, restaurant was spotless (even bathroom), great decor, lots of natural light, they have a nice patio, prices are average and about what I would expect for the quality of the food. I didn't feel that anything we ordered was overpriced. Menu had a great selection of items for everyone.
Bottom-line we loved this place and will definitely be back. A great Fast Casual option on this side of town.
