I have learned, to not ever eat at a place where they are standing outside with a menu trying to get people to come in. Don't go, save it for another place more deserving. more

Our regretful Sammy's experience took place at 6 pm on a Sunday. Most of the people on here are raving about the 2nd floor balcony view of Bourbon Street. We ate inside but the atmosphere in the restaurant is not bad. After ordering our drinks of soda and placing a food order they brought us french bread and salad. They... more

I have been to New Orleans many many times and have never stopped at Sammys. We were walking around the quarter on St. Pattys Day and hoping for a catfish Po-Boy.

When in New Orleans I always make a point to eat at least one meal at Sammys. Where else can you sit just six feet above Bourbon Street and have a wonderful meal that dosen't set you back a day's pay? The menu is varied enough to accomodate almost everybody, the staff is very friendly and really appreciates your patronage.... more

A traveling companion suggested that our group try Sammy's for dinner, and it turned out to be a great experience. Sammy's is conveniently located on Bourbon St. The decor is ordinary, but the service and food was anything but! The barbequed shrimp was outstanding. The crawfish etouffe was delicious. The red beans & rice were classic! Even the appetizers we... more

Get the trio, and try and talk them into an extra crawfish pie! We drive out of our way on the way to Florida for the pies. more
