Fabulouso! Good Food and Good Prices! They got everything on the menu for everyone including the kids. I'm usually a take out guy but there are plenty of seats and some televisions on the inside you can glance at. Good air conditioning to keep it cool from the warm heat. Soda Fountain available and there are bathrooms around the side up front.

I will not return. This was my first experience at Sam's and I would not return if someone else was paying the bill. We ordered food at 7:09 and didn't receive our food until 8:20. The food was terrible. Burger overcooked and cold. Seafood was mediocre at best. One employee was walking around with ear buds in his ears talking on the phone the entire time. Another poor soul was eating alone and waited over an hour for his food as well. Should have been a red flag when we talked in at 7 on Saturday and the place is empty.

This place is great. Very clean and refreshing atmosphere. Service is great and food comes out really fast. The food here is so good. Everything we got was cooked to perfection. The fried food was not overdone. The fish was very moist and tender. The shrimp were tender and not too chewy. The portions are good size too. I was amazed at how big the shrimp are that you get with your meals. The oyster po boy is one of my favorites. I ate here with 9 other guys and they were all full and happy when we left and we will definitely be back to try some more. Highly recommend.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Alli Jo · Mar 2025

We had the 22, which was to be fried and came grilled. No big issues with us, we aren't too picky. We had shrimp Alfredo, good flavor, nothing spectacular. Fries were crisp and delightful, hushpuppy was good and you could taste the insides, verses just being a ball of rock or mush. Was disappointed in the peach pie with ice cream. Not what I imagined, as I saw fresh cake slices on the counter. The staff seemed overwhelmed, misplacing orders or confusing orders. Quite busy, probably due to lent, but I believe this place could be successful with a little bit more flair and a better attempt at customer service. We can hear multiple complaints about how long it has taken to receive food. We waited 30 minutes. Guy next to us was here before us and still didn't have his food. In summation, decen

This place is soooo good 🤤 me and my boyfriend ate here today, he got the shrimp w catfish and I got a chicken po boy. We got fried pickles and hush puppies. We ended up just sharing it all and it was amazing. I definitely recommend this place. Not only were the ladies super nice but the atmosphere was so comforting and clean. The music was lovely too. If you want a good spot to eat, go here.
