Wow this place was incredible for brunch! We stopped by and split the Pressed Egg Sandwich, Broadway Benedict and Tres Leches French Toast. All 3 were excellent but the Broadway Benedict was particularly awesome, such tender pork. Can't miss the French toast either, it was decadent. Service was also top notch. It's well worth checking this spot out if looking for a great brunch. I can't wait to come back and try some other menu items. Edit: I went back again for the regular weekday menu and was equally impressed!

So excited for the opening of Sammy + Paco's! The food was excellent - definitely the best lunch I've had in St. Pete in awhile. Creative takes on familiar dishes, with impressive attention to detail. Mom loved the fish tacos. And the chef graciously veganized a couple things for me (they're still working on the menu, I think). Great atmosphere, lovely staff. We'll be back!

1st time at Sammy & Pacos, (big fan of Lolitas). The entire staff was warm and welcoming! My father had the El Loco Burger. The burger had short rib piled on top which was juicy and flavorful. The char flavor of the burger came through. I had the Broadway Benedict. The poached egg was delicate and cooked to perfection. We will be back!

Sammy and Pocos is a HIDDEN GEM in St. Pete! The perfect place to go for brunch if you wanna take your family here, your significant other, or if you’re just looking for a hangover cure. Mark is my absolute favorite person here and is SO helpful and sweet. Y’all gotta try this place. The matcha and the food is amazing!! Plus they have a sunflower mural on the side of their building and it’s great for pictures!

Sammy & Pacos is a small town gem on 5th Ave! The staff are wonderful—so friendly and helpful every time I come in. The Cesar salad is truly one of the best I’ve ever had and so unique! Highly recommend a side of their freshly made creamy onion dip to accompany the house made potato chips—next level! Everything is very thoughtfully prepared, so this restaurant has a very boutique sort of feel but in the most comfortable sort of way. Don’t miss out on their adorable flower-laden front patio! Update: S&Ps is still amazing. Love love the unique and refreshing quinoa tabouleh and cannot get enough of the amazing potatoes as a side. The friendly staff (hey, Mark & Brody!) and the personal touches they add to the bags and containers make this restaurant feel especially warm and cozy!

Omg! Where to start …. From the moment we walked in, the bright & airy colors, the wallpaper & lighting captured my heart! Love when I walk in somewhere and immediately feel at home. We love Lolita’s SO much, so wanted to give their sister restaurant a try… it will now be one of our new bfast/lunch spots. We ordered the brisket burger, grouper tacos and a side of toubuleh. All was incredibly tasty and fresh… appreciated the size of the sides - ample to share with the table… absolutely love the vibe of this new St. Pete gem. Only wish I could’ve crack open some of that wine/bubbles while I was there for a longer ‘brunch’ experience, but I’ll head to Lolita’s for dinner tonight to get my fix!!! Thank you to the owners, Alex & Kelly for investing their heart and soul into this city and giving us damn good food!!!

Wonderful place with excellent brunch menu offering tasty takes on the usual brunch items. We had a Reuben Cuban sandwich mash up along with the Broadway Benedict, which throws in a delicious pulled pork with crumbled plantain chips! Amazing service from the staff and incredibly cute decor paying homage to the cafe's feline namesakes round this out to be five ⭐ stars for us!
