Sammie’s is a little taste of old Italy in downtown Austin. It celebrates the great ‘red sauce’ institution—inspired by old school, legendary Italian-American restaurants. The menu offers classic dishes in a casual but sophisticated, retro-designed space that is both lively and comfortable, capturing the essence of a night out at your favorite neighborhood joint. The space consists of a central dining room overlooking Shoal Creek and 6th Street, polished wood bar, Mildred’s Room (a private dining/wine room), and wraparound patio dining area. Please note that patio seating is weather contingent.


The menu offers riffs on standards including Housemade Mozzarella Sticks, Clams Casino, and Caesar Salad a la Tommy; timeless pastas like Spaghetti with Meatballs, and Linguine Vongole; and Sammie’s Classics: big portions of iconic plates like Chicken and Eggplant Parmigiana, Veal Marsala, and Baked Manicotti.

    Absolutely delicious across the board. We had the fried mozzarella, calamari, lasagna, and chicken piccata, as well as drinks, wine, and the cheesecake for dessert. All amazing. Perfect birthday dinner.

    The old school nyc little italy vibe was nice but sadly the food was not mind blowing in any respect. We were told it was family style portions by the waiter but they really a portion for one. really pricey for what it is.

    Magical, drove in from Dallas to have dinner here with my daughters. Our server was polite, never intrusive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was spectacular, the meatballs, all of the pastas, but the snapper was the star of the show. I wish you guys had a restaurant in Dallas!! I can’t wait to come back again on my next trip.
