About this restaurant

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

    Great service, and the food was so good! A lot of the food is huge portions, and you can have leftovers. I really recommend the chicken parmigiana!

    It turned out that half our order was the wrong dishes, and the food doesn’t taste any different than a cheap Italian restaurant. I’ve been to Sammie’s a few times now, and every time the food isn’t great - Sammie’s is all hype and not worth it.
