Sam Sylk’s Chicken And Fish

So I eat here for lunch often! It seems that the service is declining. I love the lunch special for $ 3. Lately, there is no sauce, no ketchup… nothing! The staff is too busy joking and playing around in the kitchen to even notice people have walked in to place orders. I get the wrong food often… however, I’m glad they changed their fries! I hope the service gets better. The chicken bangs! Try it!

This is the worst restuarant cheap quality of food they put they my shrimp po boy on a hot dog bun the fries were cold and hard the green beans was real salty I will never visit this place again

Sam Sylk’s on Lee Rd. Well let me tell u. I heard so much about this place. I had to see if the food was good. I order the shrimp dinner and perch sandwich. The food is not good. This is my second time eating it. The fries was not done and greasy. The hush puppy was old. And the shrimp taste like they was cooked in old grease. The coleslaw look nasty. I didn’t touch it. It was all just nasty. NO MORE SAM SYLK’S for me. The service was not good either. I walk in the girl see me. She sit for 5 mins. acting like she don’t see me. Walks to the back and then come to the front and ask have u been waited on. REALLY!!!

Finally tried Sam’s place & really wanted to like there food. Got a perch dinner was flat out terrible taste mushy & pieces were very small dinner cost 9.99 $ should have cost 6.99 $.Fries were cold coleslaw was just not good. Also got 3 wings nice flavor but just plain & way to small for 4.50 $ Finally the lady at the register went to move her car in back leaving customers just standing there waiting to get there order in, bad when your trying to start up a new business… Unfortunately I won’t be back especially when there are other fish & wing places within a mile or two from this spot… My money is good all the time so should the product… I wish them the Best!!!

Saw them on TV the day they opened double dipping shrimps in batter before frying. Very anxious to try them out. Could not get them on the phone to call in a order. Drove by a few times, limited parking. Finally got in.
The place is dirty. Floor hadn’t been mopped or swept and it was only 3 PM. Long wait because they were filtering the grease. Not a problem waiting but I watched them do this using a long yellow hose which was dirty and the cooks kept touching it! The cooks had on latex gloves but I never saw them change them.
I got jumbo shrimp and chicken wings.
The coating slides off the shrimp so you end up eating a naked shrimp. The shrimp did taste fresh. Billed as jumbo but were not. Just a regular size shrimp. Very disappointed.
Wings were good but small.
Lots of fries, too many.
Won’t go back.

We tried we patronized with this place my family ordered 4 perch sandwiches and a 3 wings with fry special on 3÷26÷15 the fish was hard and cold and had no taste the fries were terrible cold and tasted burnt. And the chicken was nothing to write home about. Its a shame we spent close to $ 30.00 on this we wont ever order from here again

The chicken was good it was fried perfect but it was too much salt you can feel your blood pressure rising as you eat them you know that ain’t good for us black folks we already got high blood pressure in our genes. But if they hold out on the salt it’ll be perfect

So I was going to wait til the GRAND Opening to do my review of Sam Sylk’s Chicken and Fish but decided to do it now since reviews for me are ALL about FIRST impressions. So here goes.
My first impression of Sam Sylk’s was that it was easy to find and parking was readily accessible. We walked in and the brightness of the orange and green décor immediately perked me up despite the lateness of the hour. We were greeted by a lovely young woman who informed us they’d be closing soon so to kind of pick up the pace in making our dinner selections. Not a problem… Lol. The dinner selection however, was interrupted by the cashier recognizing BH. They went on to have the ‘Where Do I know you from?’ convo and after a few moments I decided on the wings with fresh cut fries and BH decided on a polish boy.
Waiting for the food was a pleasant experience. The two tv’s in establishment were tuned into Empire so I made my way over to one of them to enjoy the show. Sam came out from the kitchen to interact with those waiting for their dinners. Covered in flour, it was nice to see that he was a hands on owner. We spoke for a few moments then my attention went back to Empire! Sorry Sam. Lol. BH came back from the restroom and Sam spoke to him as well. Come to find out, this dude has a heck of a business sense but we won’t go into that, this is about the food right?!
After we received our meals, we leave and head home. The AROMA from the food was soo delightful and I couldn’t wait to get home to enjoy. I cracked open my chicken and fresh cut fries and the first bite of fries (lightly drizzled) with Sam’s special sauce was mmmm mmmm good! It didn’t taste like any of sauce that I’d had before (and there have been many). It wasn’t overly sweet or overly spicy/​tangy. It was juuuuust right and just Sam’s. The chicken was seasoned and fried perfectly. No abundance of batter here! BH’s Beef Polish boy was perfectly messy in all its glory. He had cheese added to it and I swear he inhaled it in 3 bites. Neither of us offered each other a taste. We’ll just consider that an mere oversight. Lol.
Overall the location, décor, service and most importantly, the FOOD were a hit! BH and I will certainly make our way back there soon! Thanks for giving us another option in this food category Sam. You did your homework and it shows! Great job!
The Savol’s!
