Sammie's

The 20 Best Downtown Austin Restaurants - Austin - The Infatuation

"Sammie’s feels like it was snatched out of a film about the Italian mafia set in some city with long alleys. Where comforting bowls of handmade pasta and warm, dimly lit interiors are more features of necessity than design. Come to Sammie’s when you want some of the best lasagna you’ve probably ever had, and an order of chicken parmigiana bigger than your head. And if you didn’t make a reservation weeks ago, stop in and try to grab a seat at the bar, where you’ll be able to chew your pasta in sync to a cocktail shaker soundtrack and a display of red suit jackets." - nicolai mccrary
