Sammy J's Boston's Best Breakfast

My mother told me about this place. I was looking for a real down home place that served a great variety of breakfast items. Im glad I came in and absolutely love the friendly, welcoming atmosphere and the quality of food. I had the eggs Benedict with home fries. It was scrumptious 😋 😍 I would absolutely come back to this place; makes me so happy!!!

My GFs favorite spot to go for breakfast. We were in town and she had to come by. Definitely a great low key spot. Staff was wonderful, caring, and on point.
Got Breakfast #2 and I enjoyed everything no complaints. Serving size is above and beyond.

Thank you!!!

There aren’t many places open for breakfast after catching the sunrise over the ocean. We found this place and it was a great find! The food was good and the staff was so nice. Good variety and a good value. Felt like we stepped back in time.

Went here on a friday morning during bike week, everything about this place was great! very welcoming and friendly service!

I usually don’t provide reviews of the restaurants at which I eat; nonetheless, I felt compelled to issue a review, and in particular, respond to a review previously submitted by a group of 13! First off, let me say that I’ve never had a bad experience at this restaurant! The food is always excellent and the service is fantastic! We often bring our little grandson with us and the wait staff always makes a point of “making over” him!
Now, in response to the review issued by the “group of 13” a week or so ago. My wife, grandson and I happened to be there that morning! We witnessed the wait staff doing their best trying to accommodate the subject group having advised the group that they would not be able to sit them all together (the restaurant is small and not set up to accommodate such a large group all together)! What we also witnessed was this group of 13, a few of whom were meandering in and out of the restaurant, appearing to have a difficult time deciding whether they were staying or leaving! I can certainly understand the restaurant’s wait staff frustration after having to deal with the subject group’s indecision!
I’m sorry group of 13, but felt that I needed to voice my perception of the subject interactions that day!

Had breakfast here so many times, always love the food and the people, nice friendly people and delicious food.

This was a great place for breakfast. Small place in a strip mall. What a surprise. Large portions and moderately priced. Good selection. Servers nice and food came out quickly and correct. We stopped in twice in a week.

Love this place! Great breakfast food and super friendly staff. I got Sammy J’s breakfast #1. My wife got the French toast. My son got the kids pancakes (shaped like Mickey Mouse!) They were all delicious. Our waiter was extremely attentive, friendly, and helpful. Oh and the potatoes were so crispy. This is definitely somewhere you want to go for breakfast if you’re in the area. Even though every table was full and a line of people waiting we were seated within 10 minutes and food on our table within 10 minutes of ordering. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough!

My coffee cup was never empty, the home fries were crispy and delicious, the omelette was fantastic, and raisin toast!! Made my morning! The servers were friendly and food was served fast.

Wonderful breakfast spot. I had a peach waffle. So tender and flavorful. Enjoyed every bite. Friendly service, husband had a western omlet. Really good

Great breakfast! Service is absolutely awesome. Food came out in record time. I'll definitely be coming back

The friendliest and fastest service I have had in a long time. Food was great and hot. Will definitely be back. Update we have gone back every year while on vacation. 2023 back again and never disappointed. Food is good, servers are great.

My husband & I had a great French toast breakfast with bacon at Sammy J's this morning. The service was perfect as well as the diner atmosphere. This was our first visit, but won't be our last. 😊

We have been hearing about this place for awhile and decided to finally​ check out this place. They did not disappoint!!!! Hot food and quick service. Only complaint was the server only checked on us one time. Not a big deal since the quality of food was delicious!!!!

Food was great. Bit of a wait but that is an indication of being popular and good food.

Love the hometown feel! Wait staff was very friendly and helped us make a decision! PS.. chicken fried steak for breakfast..... yummy!

Homey vibe and friendly staff. Definitely beats going to chain diners for breakfast.

Great service and great food. Ashley was amazing!! Each table and chair were cleaned thoroughly in between patrons.

Don't you just love when you find a good breakfast restaurant? I'm not talking a fancy one with a fancy menu. I'm talking about the one that can make the standard breakfast right. 2 eggs your way, meat cooked your way, potatoes not over seasoned or cut to large, and a choice of bread cooked the way you want. It's hard to find.

This morning I had success. We went to Sammy J's on Moody Blvd in Flagler. This restaurant is in a small plaza on the mainland, but just barely. It was easy to find and to get to. Plenty of parking and handicap access.

When we entered we were greeted and told to pick our own seats. Within a minute we had a waitress taking the drink order and pointed out the specials on the wall.

She returned within a minute with the drinks and could see we were still looking at the menu so stated she would be right back -- and she was. We still had time to finish reading but were not sitting idly waiting for her.

We placed our order. My guest ordered the standard breakfast mentioned above. He is a little bit picky. Eggs scrambled well (dry and browned) with Corned Beef Hash, home fries and a toasted English Muffin. He was asked all the appropriate questions and given choices for the different items. He added grilled onions to the potatoes.

I ordered one of the specials named the The Barnyard (breakfast sandwich). It consisted of egg, cheese, bacon, sausage, Canadian bacon, two pieces of french toast and home fries. This was to be eaten as a sandwich but when it came out it was plated so that you could make it a sandwich or just eat it the way it was and save the french toast to have with syrup if you chose to - which is what I did.

My guests eggs were cooked perfectly. He was not a fan of the home fries because they were seasoned - but they were crunchy outside and soft inside. The grilled onions were good and not only could you see them but they were in perfect quantity to enhance the flavor. The corned beef hash was on a plate by itself but was cooked the way he liked it. It was a large amount of corned beef but still not too much. The English muffin was toasted but not buttered. Butter was provided but it was hard to spread due as it was so cold.

My meal was delicious. I was so happy to get to try all the meats available in one meal. The meats were very flavorful and not over or under cooked - my favorite may have been the Canadian Bacon. The potatoes were good but next time I would probably skip the additional peppers that I ordered. They were a little over cooked to my taste. The French Toast was also cooked to perfection.

I look forward to the next time I am in the Flagler area and can once again visit this restaurant and try the Sausage Gravy & Biscuits.

First time here for breakfast. Can’t wait to go back. Ashley, our waitress, was perfect in every way. We watched how efficient and friendly she was with all that came in. Knowing many by name. Gave us great suggestions. We had the breakfast burrito and the ham/ egg Florentine special. Prices were reasonable. Portions plentiful. Best crispy home fries ever! Place was homey and very clean. Clean restrooms. You must try this nice restaurant.
