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 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.

    Perry's never disappoints. We were there this time for Thanksgiving. We had reservations for 7:30 and had to wait 30 minutes as they were backed up, but the service and food made up for the delay. A couple of us had the traditional turkey dinner with more than enough to take home left overs for another meal. My husband ordered off the regular menu and had the sea bass which was excellent as well. Normally we love to go to Perry's before a show at the Paramount Theater and just sit at the bar for appetizers and drinks. They do make the very best Caesars salad we have ever had. I highly recommend Perry's Steakhouse for steaks, seafood or even Thanksgiving dinner!

    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
