Sammy, thanks for creating the greatness that is your stackhouse. The Cinnamon Swirl French Toast was enough for me to take one bite, slam my utensils down, shut my eyes, and let out an aggressive "Mmmmmmm!!!" to the heavens. It was a Sunday morning so I expected there to be quite a line, which there was. Parking was pretty scarce and fortunately saw a car leaving just as I arrived. My party of two was immediately seated and helped. I ordered a boring grilled chicken sandwich with fries, but my date ordered the Cinnamon French Toast. Food came in about 10 minutes. Grilled Chicken Sandwich with fries- what is there to say? It's a grilled chicken sandwich and it has fries. Good enough for me, but I could have a chosen a more exciting dish. The Cinnamon Swirl French Toast was the highlight! Just the right amount of sweetness, the spongy toast melting right in your mouth, and the presentation was enough to make want to order more before even trying it. Sammy's Stackhouse is great, might even say it's worth duking it out in the parking lot for some of a parking spot over. read more

Came here as we were looking for local breakfast spots. The ambiance and building look kind of like an IHOP with a little more old school charm. However, the seats/booths are quite cramped and there's not a ton of room to move. The service was fast but the servers seemed stressed. There's a lot of work for a few employees. My husband asked if the waitress could take a family picture for us and she said she was too busy at the moment. The food included large portions and was pretty good. I got the raspberry blueberry pancakes which were delicious and my husband got an omelette which came with crispy hashbrowns. Plenty of parking out back as well! read more

Breakfast for dinner.... yes please!!! Most days this is my breakfast for dinner go to place but today the patty melt and onion rings seduced me. The meat patty is thick juicy and perfectly cooked. The grilled onions are soft yet firm with a light caramelized sweetness. The bread was soft yet crispy in all the right places. If you like spicy order a side of grilled Serrano peppers which will definitely kick this awesome duo to the nexxxt level. We ordered a side of ranch and ketchup for double dipping decadence! We were going to order pancakes or a waffle but were stuffed from the fantastic flavorful fat patty melt. This will continue to be a good to spot. Service is always good and food is always fresh and hot. Love the classic diner music which is lively but not to loud. Thanks Sammy's for yet another delicious meal shared with great company! read more

Food was terrible. You could probably find way better chicken at smiths than this place. Pancakes are ok but not the best. Food is way overpriced compared to other breakfast restaurants. Expect to my $20 per plate plus $5 for soft drinks. read more

Once one of my favorite breakfast spots, after this visit we won't be back. My teenagers expressed to me how terrible they thought the quality had slipped and that they don't ever want to eat there again. My daughter even tripped that was leaving a 20% tip because the service didn't warrant it either. I told her it was our parting gift! Thank you Sammy's for the good breakfasts and memories made over the years. read more

Not exactly close to where I live; but I'll definitely go there from time to time. I really like places like this that have a down-home diner atmosphere. Great variety of breakfast choices. Excellent food and service. read more

Good place for breakfast all day whereas other breakfast spots close at 2pm. Great pancakes and casual environment.

We came here on New Years Day 2026. Located right off of Tustin Ave in Orange with private parking. The restaurant is very clean with many booths. Staff is friendly. I ordered a hamburger with onion rings and my husband ordered the pancakes with strawberries and bananas with eggs, sausage and hash browns. The burger was large, flavorful and wasn't greasy. I especially liked the onion rings as they are Panko crust, light and also not greasy. The food was delicious, generous portions and great prices. Menu offers breakfast and lunch with so many options to choose from. They also offer beer and wine. Definitely recommend, will return! Great place for a meal! read more

I like the casual family atmosphere and variety in the menu. The countrybpotatoes were tasty as was the crispy bacon, chicken fried steak, and other items we ordered. However, the gluten free pancakes were terrible. I don't know if they changed the mix but it had a tough crust and dry interior and wasn't very tasty. Prior times I've visited the gluten free pancakes were good. Gluten free corn cakes would be a welcomed addition. They also made an error and 1 child in our party of 10 had to wait extra long for meal while others ate; they apologized but it would have been nice if they made some attempt to make up for that. read more

Great portion and fun items. If you are into diner breakfast then give it a shot. Place is always packed on the weekend for good reason! Friendly fast service but very small restaurant read more

AMAZING! We absolutely love this place. The place is always clean even the syrup bottles which are usually sticky at other places here they are spotless. The staff is so friendly & helpful. The food is incredible and the menu is HUGE! We love their huevos rancheros, the farmers omelette & the tuna melt. read more

Food was good, the appearance and ambiance is like any standard American breakfast joint. I would say the price is a little more affordable than some of the other breakfast places we frequent. We were seated on the smaller side of the restaurant where fewer parties had been seated and I think that means that the servers return to that side less often which can mean service is a little slower. We would have like a little more constant service we often had to flag someone down for ketchup, coffee and water top offs. I will say, the one thing I really liked was that the kids coloring sheets were all different and very interesting! Unfortunately they were out of crayons, but luckily I had brought my own. read more

Sammy's Stackhouse has great breakfasts but their turkey dinner is my favorite. They also have a very friendly staff.

Terrible Dinner I Took my Family for Dinner here for Valentine's Day 2/14/26 I ordered the fried 4 Pc Chicken Dinner if you can call it that! Chicken was so small and Dry I could not Believe it. We all laughed when it came to table! I told the Waitress about the Chicken and she offered to bring more. But Chicken was Dry as it can Get again. So Disappointed with this Dinner I just Left it all there. I did give my Service Dog the Mini Breast. My Wife ordered the Sirlion Steak Cuts with Grilled onions and Mushrooms Also not Great at All!! Portion was small for $23,99 Waitress said she was Sorry than brought the Bill of $78 dollars I am seriously tired of wasting my money at these Restaurants for food. Oh Plus the Tip!! Breakfest Though Here is Great But Dinner Don't Waste Your Hard Earned Money Here!! read more

Came here because a TikTok video made it look good. We wouldn't come back. Maybe they got new cooks or had an off day but below is our review. The restaurant wasn't busy at 9am. We got a seat right away when walking through the door. The restaurant had a weird layout feeling squished and when you walk in the entrance felt like you were walking into their kitchen. Bathroom is suuper tiny too. Tables are real close where you feel you are dinning with the table next to you. Food didn't have much flavor and pancakes weren't cooked fully. Veggie omelette didn't taste fresh. Asked for extra plates and they were dirty and we had to send them back. Coffee wasn't anything special. Didn't get offered a refill until the entire meal was done. Much prefer iHop than Sammy's. read more

I am always apprehensive to go into a little diner because you never know what type of environment it is or the quality of food you will be served. I was pleasantly surprised by Sammy's Stackhouse. A friend wanted to eat breakfast and chose that place. I went inside while waiting for my friend to arrive and was seated at a booth. I quickly noticed that everything was clean -- The syrup dispensers, the floor, the tables. The waitress was pleasant and brought my coffee right away. I ordered a senior breakfast with an egg, bacon, sausage, ham, hash browns, and pancake. It was delicious and huge. I highly recommend going for the old school vibe and retro music. A true diner classic. read more

Wanted to try something new while we were out running errands, and happened to drive by here and decided to try it. Parking was available, but it was a crowded lot. We arrived and put our name in and had to wait maybe 10min. On a Saturday morning, that isn't too bad. I ordered coffee and the pancake combo with bacon, hash browns and scrambled eggs. The pancakes were the nutella ones and I was excited to try them. The combo part of the meal was fine. As you'd expect from a breakfast house. The hasbrowns were almost as thick as a cake, but cooked through so I was impressed. The pancakes were a bit dry. My first bite was jarring without syrup. I had to add syrup so I was able to chew and swallow the pancakes. They were tasty, but dry. Overall, pretty standard breakfast place. Might return if we are in the area and don't feel like a long wait. read more

Tried Sammy's again not long ago. We were seated quickly, then promptly forgotten about. Waited for about 15-20 minutes hoping to order beverages, and the server never even once looked our way or came over to the area where we sat. Finally just got up and walked out. Won't be returning. read more

My favorite breakfast place. Love the Crepes! Lingonberry are my favorite. Super Clean and friendly

First visit, won't be the last. Went in hankering for pancakes and weren't disappointed. The three-stack was more than I could eat, likewise for my wife. Service was excellent and as someone else said, the place was pristine clean, even the men's room. We want to try their offerings other than breakfast. read more

Stopped by this lovely little place while dropping my dog off at the vet. Walking in, I was immediately transported to an old fashioned diner from the decor to even the music that was playing. I absolutely adore old fashioned diner aesthetics so I was immediately hooked. Now the decor is one thing but how is the food and the service? Fantastic. My server (I believe her name was Espie) was very friendly and asked if I wanted coffee immediately after being seated. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the blueberry pancakes with eggs, sausage, and hash browns and was blown away. These blueberry pancakes make IHOP's pancakes look pathetic in comparison. All I can say is that if you're ever in the area and have a craving for some good pancakes and good coffee, give Sammy's Stackhouse a shot. I'll definitely have to try the chicken and waffles next time I go. read more

first off this place used to be an old ihop from (guessing) the 70s. but that's not the best part! it's absolutely frickin SPOTLESS. you know their staff is *working to keep it that clean, but they're super FRIENDLY! their gigantic portions are picture perfect; crispy & fluffy where it should be etc. everything was v fresh tasting. if you like diners, this is a good one. seriously though - the staff is awesome. read more

My husband and I have been enjoying Sammy's for years. We go for breakfast for dinner, and it's never crowded. This makes us sad, because everyone should be there. Hence, the yelp review.
