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.

    Wonderful food, atmosphere, and the server was attentive and at the same time very down to earth and did not give us a feeling of being rushed. We've been To Aba a few times and the food is always spot on. Incredible flavors and presentation

    The hosts where lovely and offered us the kitchen seating over the bar - such a cool experience! I Our server was attentive and the drinks came out quickly for all being craft cocktails! This was my partners first time here and after being sat for maybe ~ 10 minutes ~ we booked another reservation for next month! We got bone marrow, caesar salad, rigattoni, yukon potato's and the porterhouse! Our server did talk us out of the tomahawk which was smart, considering we have Turkey leftovers to eat but we WILL be trying it next month! Thank yall 🤍 Also a free desert and a card signed by all the staff for my partners birthday was such a cute touch! We'll see yall soon!
