Owner David Zimmerman will appear before CB3's SLA committee tonight to license 112 Stanton St. between Essex and Ludlow...
In May, as we first reported, Community Board 3 approved an application for 191 Orchard St. between Houston and Stanton.
We're not sure what happened with the Orchard Street space ... as previously mentioned, it had been vacant for nine years and needed a lot of work to bring it into service. Apparently, Zimmerman and Sammy's team needed to move on from the location.
The method of operation (questionnaire here) will be similar on Stanton Street as it was proposed on Orchard Street ... and the same as when Sammy's reigned on Chrystie Street. The proposal calls for six tables to accommodate 66 guests... and a "Sammy's Dinner Show" twice-nightly (6 and 9).
Sammy's closed in early January 2021 after 45-plus years of serving up ice-encased vodka, smeared pitchers of schmaltz and enormous platters of meat from the lower level at 151 Chrystie St. between Delancey and Rivington.
The restaurant had been shuttered since the PAUSE of March 2020, and this wasn't a business ready-made for delivery or outdoor dining.
112 Stanton St. was previously home to Sushumai Asian Fusion.
Tonight's SLA meeting starts at 6:30. Find the Zoom link at this link.
This is a hybrid meeting, and there is limited seating available for the public — the first 15 people who show up at the Community Board 3 Office, 59 E. Fourth St. between Second Avenue and the Bowery.

Sammy's is one of those unique places where you'll never forget the night(s) you spent there. Sure, the end of the night may be hazy, but you'll still remember the schmaltz, the steak and the dance party.
Dani Luv's "gag" that sort-of-kicks-off the night makes me laugh every time I think about it. I won't spoil the gag here, but hopefully it makes a return soon!
