I researched reviews and so glad I did. Early Saturday dinner near the theatre and the staff at the hostess desk was so welcpming. Seating choices were dining room, tavern side, patio or speakeasy. No pressure to sit where it was convenient for the server. Server came out to patio often, never felt forgotten or rushed. Food was delicious, fairly priced for the quality, and lots of variety to choose from. Highly recommend!

We had the most warm welcome to this restaurant. We were rolling through town on our way home after a weekend in hill country. Nadine, (I hope that was her name.) was very pleasant and knew the menu. She repeated the specials for my husband since he wasn’t listening the first time (🤦🏻‍♀️). She was great and the food was wonderful. My husband got the salmon dinner with mashed potatoes and broccoli. I got the chicken panini, which had a spicy aïoli, arugula, and tomato on a warm bun. The bread was side, the chicken tender. I also had a cup of the tomato bisque. It was slightly salty but good overall with a great consistency. The restaurant was small (max occupancy 75) with the restaurant on one side and the bar area on the other. There were a few tables on the sidewalk out front too. They a

I hate to leave an average review because I do really like it here! The atmosphere is cozy, the staff are all very kind and welcoming. But I did have an incident with the food I ordered. I have gone to Sam’s Table twice, my first time was lovely but my second time wasn’t so… I have ordered the Rib-Eye steak (cooked: medium), the regular mashed potatoes, and steamed broccoli. The meal was alright, pretty good for a smaller town. But as soon as I left the restaurant, I felt off. When I returned to my home I felt sick and then I threw up for about 2 hours. My partner ordered the same meal as me and he said he was feeling a bit sick too, but I was the only one who threw up. I’m not prone to a weak stomach and I can definitely “chow down” lol so portion size wasn’t a problem. I would still reco

★★★★★ 5.0 George Vernau · Oct 2025

This is a pretty solid location for a meal, especially in downtown Huntsville. Though we didn’t have a reservation, the manager gave us a seat in the tavern area, which is family friendly and has a cool atmosphere. I received good service while at this restaurant, and the food was tasty as well. I ordered the 3 Chicken Tacos, a menu item under the Costa Rice entree section (I’m not exactly sure how these tacos were particularly Costa Rican, but they tasted great). The chicken was flavorful and well-accompanied by the vegetables. I ordered an unconventional side of mashed potatoes with my tacos, but though an unusual choice, they were relatively light and fluffy. I also got to try this restaurant’s burger, which had a very sweet bun; the patty tasted good paired with everything else, but I

A was our waitress… she did a great job of thoroughly explaining the menu! I had ceviche and my husband had shrimp tacos. It was five stars all all the way.!!!
