We were looking for a place to eat after a medical procedure and stumbled into Samel's. Boy, were we surprised and very lucky. We had a couple of side dishes and main course dishes. All were excellently prepared and plated. Tastes were huge. A totally unexpected experience. I can't say enough. Samuel's is a small bar that serves food and great food. If you ever have a chance to go to Samuel's, I highly recommend you go there. The staff was courteous and very friendly. We sat outside to enjoy the 80-degree weather. As always, I you liked my review, please "Like" it. Thank you.
My wife and I were on a road trip and stayed a night in Evansville. We found this restaurant that was near our hotel. Both of our meals were fantastic! We had the Brussels sprouts which were delicious! I had a special smash burger, it was perfectly done and delicious. My wife had the steak frites, it was perfectly done, wonderfully seasoned, and visually perfect. The wines were very nice. We would eat there again.
My fiancé and my FAVORITE place in Evansville, IN! We love the classic smash, Nashville hot chicken and the spicy fries. We love this place so much that we got engaged here and plan on doing engagement pictures here as well! 🫶 We love the staff, vibes, food and drinks. Nothing bad to say about this ✨GEM✨in Evansville!
First time here. We were greeted and sat right away. This is a cute little restaurant. I ordered a crispy chicken sandwich, club style. My husband ordered the patty melt. The sides are sold separately, so we ordered the regular fries, with aoli sauce. It was all really good. We also ordered 2 drinks that were really good. We would recommend trying this cute place.
I'm in town for work from San Antonio. After searching and searching I found Samuels. Ended up eating there 3 times in a week. Food quality is too notch but the service is even better. Sat at the bar the first day and had a salad with hot honey chicken, which was not a menu item but definitely should be. The bartender sold me on trying the burgers which I came back for the next day. SOLID smash burger with tons of flavor and the fries are worth their weight in gold. Then the waitress sold me on the steak bites which I came back for on day 3. Im not a sirloin fan but this was the most tender sirloin ive ever had. I'll be traveling through a few times a year and will definitely swing by Samuels everytime.
Staying nearby, Popped in from out of town for dinner, delighted by the simple elevated atmosphere, creative well prepared cocktail & super delicious hot honey chicken on house salad, Samuel’s you made Evansville a great stop! Thank you☺️
Amazing! The staff could not be more friendly. We were made to feel so welcome. Great craft beer and cocktails. We ordered the brussel sprouts, hot honey chicken sandwich, Chicken Milanese and chocolate cake for dessert. Everything was spectacular! A cute little place that knows how to serve great food and customer service.
Amazing little restaurant in downtown Evansville Indiana. Very straightforward and simple menu. Plenty of options but not too many that it's overwhelming. Had the Hot Chicken sandwich, along with some Spicy Fries, and a wonderful drink. Apologies, i was enjoying the sandwich too much to take a first photo. The food was wonderful. Staff was very attentive. And the prices are on point. You can't go wrong here. Highly recommend for something off the beaten path.
Was greeted when we walked in. Restaurant is small but very nice and homey feel. Staff was attentive and helpful. Food was excellent and good value. Would definitely recommend.
I shall call this an "interesting" spot. Love the catchy red facade that hints a dark paneled pub is behind it. Inside has more of a trendy, well-lit, Specialty cocktail vibe. I found it to be an unusual contrast with the basic burger/fry menu. The smash burger and shoestring fries were great and I thought priced very well. It's just an unusual contrast for my basic tastes and not being a fan of trendy cocktails. I would come back for the burger.
