About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
  • Lively
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.

    Our waiter Sailf was fantastic!!! He was cheerful, helpful, and so accommodating. The food and wine were exceptional as well. BUT, we may never go back😢we asked to be moved to a booth because the noise level was off the charts. That did not help. It was SOOO cold that my delicious dinner was cold before I was half way finished. So, sadly we will not be back.

    Always solid. Service great. Extraordinarily noisy last night as you could have thought you were dining at a club.
