    I ordered a large Mac and large yams. It’s 3 yams in 2 small containers and the Mac is like one serving with maybe an extra spoon. I thought large side dishes were suppose to at least feed 2 people guess not

    I have given the Shaker Heights store at least four chances to get an order right over a period of 1.75 years- both using Uber Eats and in the store. Three out of five times my order is missing my okra. Four out of five times the fries are old/not fresh. The fish is overcooked as you will see in my picture. Once I ordered on Uber Eats, on a holiday, wh3re the store said it was open. The Uber driver gets there and the store is closed- noone in sight. If you want Sam Sylk's go the the Euclid Ave store in Cleveland or Arlington Ave in Akron- I haven't had issues with those stores.

    Just moved back to Cleveland two weeks ago after being away for a long time. To come back and see Sam Sylk has his own restaurants made me smile. I enjoyed listening to him on the radio when I was a kid. I ordered pickup via the DoorDash app and picked up my food with no problems. The catfish sandwich is the bomb. I’ve had catfish in other cities but Cleveland folks make some of the best catfish. It was so good. Can’t wait to try out the rest of the menu.

    I ordered a. Catfish dinner and three wings with sauce. The catfish dinner was terrible, it was tough and chewy. You tell that it was cooked in old grease. The wing were ok but had very little sauce on them. I’m sure i won’t be eating there again.

    I ordered a catfish dinner and the food was amazing. I don’t typically eat greens, but the greens, yams and macaroni and cheese were awesome. I’m definitely coming back.

    Ordered through GrubHub just now. Received my food in time. Did not receive fries for one meal. The ones we received were cold, very skinny, a little hard. No coleslaw on one of the dinners. Hush puppies were real hard, received two. They were suppose to replace the bread.

    Rode past and had been wanting to try it. Had a fish sandwich. It was ok, and was cooked and done really quick. Nothing bad to say, if your ever in the neighborhood stop by for a quick bite

    NEVER AGAIN. Fiancee ordered two fish sandwich meals, one catfish, the other orange roughy. Number one, it had no flavor at all . The batter was plain as day. Bread was soft and chewy, not in a good way; tasted on the verge of stale and improperly stored. The fries were unedible. Tasted like some cold second hand McDonald's fries. Tartar sauce, no flavor. How that happens is beyond me. I try to support black establishments and always will, but Sam Sylk, yeah, NEVER AGAIN.

    I last had delivery from this location in 2022. It was good then. The Garfield location was awful, so I was hesitant to order at another location. I'm glad I did. I ordered on DoorDash (the menu is a bit confusing on there, so read through it before building your cart). I ordered a perch(fried well and perfectly seasoned) dinner with Cajun seasoning on the fish, Mac n cheese (creamy and flavorful), greens (SO good), hush puppies (crisp on the outside, tender on the door inside and well seasoned) (the dinner option was blacked out so I got bread with my dinner (which is fine). I think 1 slice isn't enough for 3 pieces of fish tho. I'm glad I ordered hush puppies because they didn't come with my dinner even though it's on the description). Fried okra was crispy. They were out of sweet potato pie but left a nice note and replaced it with peach cobbler (a lot of crust! And not too sweet). The Diet Coke was fountain and not too much ice. I also appreciated that they included condiments, utensils, napkins and that everything was sealed. I'll return soon! *Request can you all please include perch and waffles on this menu? Fulton Road has it and it's delicious

    This whole meal was absolutely delicious. The bag came fully sealed. The food was still super fresh when I got it. The 5 Wing & Waffle was amazing. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and crispy and the strawberry waffle was fluffy soft and yummmy. The Perch Sandwich was fire too and the fish was crispy. This was the best meal I've ever had from them I can't say enough great things.

    At first I stopped eating at this location because of the quality of the food . Since I haven’t had it in a long time & it was close I dub back & babbbby when I say them wings was fire!! crispy, fresh & small just how I like them. Fries could have been a lil softer and more sauce but overall good I’ll dub back again lol .

    I had the two piece perch dinner with fries. The perch wasn't done all the way.They probably need to change there grease and the fries tasted soggy. And they took too long given me my food.

  • 4/5 Kim L. 6 months ago on Google
    Chicken wings too small for $1.99! Fries were like McDonald's fried okra delicious! Food was tasty but I just can't get past those baby wings for 1.99!

😠 DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL! Ordered a Caesar salad & they gave us honey mustard dressing, salad had an old egg in it that was turning green around yoke. Lasagna was also nasty. Annnnnd….Got all the way home to realize they had left an entree out of our order, which required another 30-40 minutes round...

👍👍 Honestly you would be hurting yourself IF you don’t try this “food+the service”! I’ve traveled around the world and in here I loaded my bowl with everything on the menu to try them. Everything is 10 out of 10 quality and taste. And pretty reasonable prices for the quality and portion they give you!...
