Are there any delivery services that go here?

No unfortunately.

Why is it have been coming to sammys for over 20 years and now it's horrible.

I think they may have a new person doing some of the cooking. We were there a few weeks ago. It wasnt the best. It was like little tiny pieces of meat. It was over cooked. Dry as heck. I told him and he didnt seem to care at all. We are going back this week. I hope it is better this time. I have been going there forever never had an issue. So one back day wont stop us from going back. Let yous know if it's better this time.

Is this place cash only?

Yes cash only

BEST Donairs and Falafels in Burlington! Good quality Halal meat, spiced and cooked perfectly. Would be good to get with the times and have a few more veggie options (like pickled red cabbage, peppers, etc). A bit pricey, especially the drinks. Great people, great food. Cash only!

This place was unbelievable. Fast and friendly service with amazing food! Word of advice though... Only go for the hot if you can REALLY handle heat. Flavourful but mouth scorching. Will definetly be going back!

"So you like the juice huh?" Yes, and everything else. True donairs with proper sauce. Not just gyro meat with a different presentation. Meat was a bit dry, but had a wonderful taste. Lots of sauce. They wrap it in plastic as well as paper to cut down on the mess.

This is by far the best donair in the world. The sauce..... oh the sauce! Give me a straw. It's that good. I like to buy extra sauce. Great service and always a nice environment. Thank you Sammys!!! I drive all the way from Niagara to eat here. Love it.

This review is based solely on my food experience. Let me first say that customer service was excellent. The food on the other hand was microwaved and the meat was very very dry. We also got some baklava which was also very dry and stale. I really wanted to love this place =( . Would not recommend for quality fresh food. All the best Sammy's ❤️

People who go there, have a way of turning into regulars!! Regular Donair and a Pepsi $11. All you need to satisfy a hunger. Not like any other Donair you will find. Highly recommended!!!

Really like this place. I've been going for years. Was talking to a guy from Halifax that said they were no good, not authentic, and that I had to try Halifax donair. Sammy's is way better in my opinion. I get the combo plate. The extra charge for the hot sauce feels a little nickel and dimey but I pay because I'm addicted. Careful though, it's freaking hot!

I asked for chicken shwarma on salad...it was dry without any sauce, expensive for the portion size and staff appeared kinda put out that I was asking for this modification to the menu. I won't go back for this item again unfortunately. I believe their donar is very good.

Been a fan of this family owned establishment for more than 30 years. I was a customer when they were on Fairview St. The owners are amazing people! The food is top shelf, I’ve enjoyed every menu item. Service is friendly and quick. The restaurant is clean and bright. Worth a try if you’re a newbie. You won’t regret!Cheers!

Having heard about this place from a friend, and knowing they've been a Burlington institution for 35 years, I had high expectations. The Donair was closer in consistency to gyro than I was expecting, and $10 seems like a lot for a takeout sandwich. I also dislike places that don't take debit or credit. I'm sure it contributes to the bottom line, but it's 2018 and I almost never have paper money on me.

The donair didn’t disappoint. Warning: I ordered mine spicy and the guy warned me it was hot, suggesting I get medium, he wasn’t kidding. I eat extra spicy food all the time and this was no joke. Their “hot” level should be “suicide” but I enjoyed it regardless (the guy did warn me).

I have been going to Sammy's for years. The donairs are always amazing, with good portions and the most irresistible sauce you can think of. Everytime I go, when the food comes my mouth waters uncontrollably. Ten thumbs up. As a bonus, it is a family owned and operated business, so I always try to support those businesses.

Just killer. The regular donair is huge and messy and delicious. If you're not a monster go for the junior size. If you are, be prepared for a treat. I haven't tried anything else... yet. This mom and pop shop delivers. Bring cash, they don't take debit/credit but have a cash machine on site.

I have been coming here for years. The food, prices, and service changed and not for the better. The food is not as fresh anymore, seems the Donair is always dry. The prices went up and the portions are smaller. I don't know how they can justify charging those prices. The service, well, it won't hurt to put a smile on their faces once a while. Seems like they hate being there. Overall, I would still recommend it as it is better than most Donair places around the area.
