Reviews for Sam's Place in New York, NY

This was one of the best Italian meals our family has ever had! I had the Veal Marsala, my wife had one of the specials,... Chicken, artichokes, capers, in a white wine, lemon butter sauce. The kids had Pesto Shrimp Risotto and Beef Raviolis marinara.All very different and each one perfectly cooked with outstanding flavor. The service was great. The bread, breadsticks withbutter and olive oil was brought to the table promptly. Sam's Place is a smaller restaurant with great character. I stronglyrecommend giving Sam's Place a try. Read more

Absolutely the best Italian food we've ever had. The owner and staff were spectacular! We had mussels, veal marsala, shrimp... alfredo and had to try the marinara. Atmosphere was impeccably cozy and warm. Read more

One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been in New York. Excellent service, delicious food, cozy atmosphere.

Needed a quiet meal by myself on a business trip. I found this super cosy Italian restaurant. It was a lovely spot to enjoy some... great homely pasta, I had penne bolognese, and Italian wine. The service was good and it was a nice homely atmosphere. Read more

Cozy, friendly, a place that feels like and tastes like family. Very quick and attentive service, immediately made me feel like... home. The food was tasty and comforting - fantastic calamari. My only “complaint” was that the food felt a bit too much onthe salty side for my taste - but it didn’t take away from the flavor at all. Makes for great leftovers too! Read more

Wow! So happy to start my New Year dining experience at such a great establishment. All around a fantastic experience. I made a... reservation on Google Assistant and they prepared a four seat table for us. The seating was comfortable. The napkin art was anice touch. We couldn’t be under the tent but they moved two heaters near our table to accommodate so we weren’t cold. Theytreated us very nicely. The bread for the table was fresh and crunchy. We started with the calamari which had a fantastic sauce- more on the sauces later. I ordered the special clam stuffed with crab meat and shrimp. It was the large size because thesmall comes with two. It was toasted to perfection on top and I could see the real lumps of shrimp and crab! The clams sat ontop of a LOVELY lemon sauce that put the dish on top. All of the people at the table live together and tried each other’sdishes. The mussels were tender. The risotto wasn’t overpowered with too much pesto. And the chicken portobello sauce wastangy and rich. Every plate was delicious and you wouldn’t go wrong getting any of these. We also drank some nice wines andfinished with the ricotta cheesecake and cappuccinos. I can’t wait to visit again for the cute indoor dining one day. Read more
