Sammy’s Beach Bar & Grill

Food is very so so, n service is rather sloppy n slow. Sorry Sammy, but your restaurant needs some serious overhaul. Tables were somewhat dirty as is the floor. Not really worth it.

My reviews are normally positive but I just can’t help not passing along my negative opinions here to save others from wasting their money. This is the worst place I have ever patronized in an airport. Both the service and the food was absolutely terrible and over priced. I will NEVER eat here again. I even told the server that we were in a hurry just like 90% of the people in there. It didn’t matter the food came out 30 minutes later no exaggeration. Chicken sandwich ordered was a dried up mess and way too small for the bun. Tacos were also the worst I have ever tasted. Good luck Sammy, stick to making music!

Bartender 35 079 has no customer service skills whatsoever. Attitude and NO conversation ability. I manage a restaurant and lounge and she seems like a government employee who could care less.

This place is AWFUL. Poor service, slow cooks, nasty food. On a plus note, they are consistent. You wont ever have to worry about having a pleasant experience.

Most worthless raggedy place in the entire airport! I have never in all my life had such awful service at any place. I would have rather ate from a vending machine. Service was flat out awful. Never had such bad service, rude waitress, forgot about us over and over. The place was busy but they had several waitresses working there. They should have been able to do far better. Just awful!
They don’t even deserve 1 star

Danger Will Rogers, Danger. Read the other reviews. They are spot on. Sorry Sammy. Time to reinvent your restaurant.

I don’t expect a lot from airport food or drink. What I do expect from any establishment is an at least half friendly staff and a water without floaties.
Sammy Hagar — why?!

This place is just worthless. We ordered a Stella beer and were charged for a Sam Adams. We also received the wrong beer. Kelsie, the waitress was not friendly at all and took fifteen minutes to retrieve a Bud Light which was okay at best. I could have got past these mistakes if the price wasn’t so high but nope. 43 $ for greasy small portions and a bad time.

Simple order… bowl of soup and a beer. Took 15 min for soup to come out and it was cold. Waitress rude when I asked to send soup back. Second bad experience here. Won’t be back to this place even though it’s right by the gate I use every Thursday night.

Two stars because I had sympathy for the waitress. Sammy, get your name off here. You’re a rock star not a chef. Wait until you fly far away and eat there, not here.
I guess I should have just trusted my instincts and my fellow Unilocalers.
I was brave that day. It did not pay off.
I’ll save you the food details.
JUST DON’T DO IT.

I would not recommend eating here. Ever. My server had no sense of urgency at all. It took almost half an hour to get my food. That’s a lifetime in an airport. When it finally did arrive, the seared ahi on my tacos was barely warmed through. You could tell by the texture it was reheated frozen tuna. Everything else on the taco was ice cold, including the tortilla. Seriously, who serves cold tortillas? The «kicked up» fries? Just frozen fries with a spoonful of shaved Parmesan from a tub dumped in the middle. Traveller beware. Avoid at all costs.

I feel like I broke the Unilocal code with coming to this place! There’s a reason why I AM a Unilocaler and I failed to summon my powers by checking the reviews of this place! I wish I would have Unilocaled this before sitting down and ordering! Sure, it was convenient to eat here just because my terminal was literally in front… all because I was being lazy! Never again! With this said, do yourself a favor and look at the horrendous pictures and reviews and walk to the nearest exit before placing an order as you WILL be DISSAPOINTED!
My bf and I shared the nachos, a water, and a sprite all for $ 20+ dollars for a few chips, measly pieces of chicken (most likely grilled frozen chicken strips) with a terrible chimichurri sauce that did not go well with the nachos. We had thought about sharing because for the price, we figured they would be a large order but if we had looked at the pictures on Unilocal,we would’ve realized that:
1. the portion size was too small and we should have each ordered our own meal
2. pictures do not look good and are not worth the price!
To top it all off, the service itself was terrible! There was only one waitress and she wasn’t very good either! We practically waited the entire hour that we had available for one shared meal and we had to get her attention multiple times to close our check. We ended up being the last to board our flight because she took forever to bring our card back!
I’m telling you, if I hadn’t been so hungry and didn’t have a long flight, I would’ve skipped the meal altogether!

Egg (if it really was) didn’t taste like egg, Luke warm, and rubber hash browns… Next time I just eat at Starbucks!

I have passed Sammy’s a couple times in the airport and walked on by like Isaac Hayes. There is a picture of Sammy Hagar in white linen looking very at peace like an older hillbilly White Iverson. Sammy’s is nothing more than a place to drink while waiting for a plane. People need to either wait to their destination to eat or stop expecting dumpy airports to serve them their foodie-​Yelp-​Instagram wet dream on a dirty plate.

Really slow, poor service. Fortunately our gate was right across from the bar so we could see when it was boarding.

I came here for a drink while waiting for my flight to board. The venue seemed very average for an airport lounge. The service was ok, and the drinks were reasonably priced. I would consider stopping in again if I’m flying out of Cleveland again.

My boyfriend and I went here because it was close to our gate and looked decent. We went with their top picks — the seafood bisque and the carnitas — and it came out far from decent. The presentation was terrible, fries were terrible, and the food was just alright. Definitely not a healthy pick either.
Don’t be deterred by the amount of people you see — I would NOT recommend eating here!

Food too cold and fries are
Not kicked up! Barely any season or cheese. Looks like the leftovers. Staff is friendly and attentive. Giving Hagar a bad name need to have a pow wow with the cooks!

One of the worst places I have eaten. We went here because it was the only place open. The table was filthy and the waitress never offered to clean it.
The food was just awful. I ordered shrimp tacos that consisted of plain shrimp, cheap salsa and some type of mayo in a plain tortilla… that’s it. My wife ordered a steak sandwich which came with an embarrassingly small piece of steak and a few veggies on an oversized bun. I ended up eating my daughter’s plain grilled cheese because it was better than the tacos and she wouldn’t touch it.
The service was also lousy but I expected that since it was an airport. All this and they raped me for a $ 40 bill and made me listen to terrible Sammy Hagar music the whole time.

When it comes to airport dining, often the choices are slim-pickin’s.
That said, hubby and I were pleasantly surprised by our eats at Sammy Hagar’s «beach» diner. It was a bit pricey, but that’s to be expected in an airport. Our server was also very sweet! Between the two of us, we ordered the nachos and seafood bisque. To add meat to my nachos would have been an extra $ 4 (!!) so I opted for the meatless version, which wasn’t bad. It was topped with jalapeños, cheese, olives, pico, guacamole, sour cream and a tasty chorizo dressing. I ate the whole thing in record time! My man seemed to like his bowl of bisque (both were served with tortilla chips). I like that our food was presented on black guitar pick-​shaped plates, even if the restaurant soundtrack was devoid of Van Halen (?!).
This is no Wolfgang Puck’s, but it feeds well in a pinch.
