This establishment has been an staple of city island for many years. It has its own parking. Seafood is good never heard a complaint. Little expensive. Def a treat. Service is a little slow.

The lobster tails were delicious if you go broiled. So much butter! Id steer clear of the fried options. I got some fried scallops that were really wet and soggy when bitten into.

Service was a wreck. The food was good, but could have tasted better if we had a better experience. I also feel like we got a better value at Lobster House. Very pricey, and no dessert.

The food lacks seasoning. Also, you can split one portion between 2 easy! Margaritas are good!

Sammy's has huge portions and a great location. But the food is just OK. Try somewhere else, like The Black Whale.

I took my wife out for birthday and my food never came out. The waiter came to my table twice and didn't notice that I wasn't served until it was brought to his attention.
