Sammy's Authentic Italian - Harrisburg

Met friends from Philly area Saturday night for dinner, this is a area we moved from that knows Italian. They sat us in a space in which you had to ask the tables around you to move so you can get up if needed. I got a house salad which was small enough for a child to eat, this came with my special of shrimp and scallop carbonara (3 quarter sized scallops and 3 medium butterflied shrimp and 4oz of pasta maybe) $39 plus $10 because I wanted angel hair instead of linguine. We had to ask for more French bread to fill our stomachs, then I questioned whether we were in a French restaurant with the portion sizes. The young waiter tried to clear plates before we could finish without asking if we were done. The noise level in there was outrageous, you had to yell to have conversation with one another. Who goes out to an Italian restaurant and goes home hungry. We all agreed once outside , there is nothing Authentic or Italian about this place.

Had dinner last night with a friend and the food was fantastic!!! I had the steak and shrimp with a lobster sauce over angel hair pasta. I have never eaten anything as good as that. The desserts are to die for. If you want a fabulous dinner, you definitely need to go there.

Loved this place! The food is wonderful and service was friendly. We are a family of eight. The Chief and Stewart answered all our questions and even provided suggestions. It was a great Italian Family Atmosphere. Most importantly, we have a teenager who will not eat anything that isn’t chicken nuggets and chips. The staff asked what he liked and found something he would eat. Thank you so much for feeding my family and making our vacation memorable.

Great restaurant but not if you are Celiac like me. If just gluten sensitive you will probably be OK and with no dietary issues: great!

Food and service was great! The desserts at 12.95 each not so good!
