Sammy's Woodfired Pizza Grill - La Mesa

We had a large group in our family. We called the day before to.make reservation and confirmed with the hostess. Family came in on Sunday for 3PM reservation and the hostess had to call the manager because they did not have it written down and had to wait about 30 min. We understand that things happen but would assume this of a place that just opened and they have many restaurants around the county. We were seated together in the front of the restaurant and at times was difficult to wave down a server.

Skillet pork belly arrived tepid,eggs overcooked, condiments not on table.Presentation of entre POORLY done.Overpriced!!

Everyone in our party thought their food was way too salty. I sent my fettuccini alfredo back and got a chicken sandwich instead it was 3 chicken fingers on a bun I was expecting a fried chicken breast it hardly tasted like anything, but that could be because my taste buds had not recovered from the shock of the salty alfredo. The service was just ok. When I spoke to the waitress, she even agreed saying all of their food is salty, so I dont understand why they still serve it this way. I dont mind salty food when it should be salty, but you should still be able to taste the other flavors. For example, an alfredo sauce should taste creamy, buttery and garlicy not so salty that you wonder if the lid of the salt shaker fell off when the chef was salting the food. The truffle fries tasted like salt and hardly any truffle taste. It was a disappointing first experience. The prices are too high for sub par food, so we will not be going back.

Nice, large restaurant. Went early morning Mothers Day (8:30) for breakfast. Food was good and the waitress was excellent. Negatives: they were very short staffed. Long wait to be seated not because of crowd but no one tending the front of house wait to be seated . No sugar free syrups. Long wait to order. All these could have remedied with appropriate staffing and a couple of bottles of sugar free syrup for those needing it. Very noisy. Overall 4 stars
