Sam's is an old school NY System spot that definitely knows how to handle their business. As expected, the wieners were completely on point in every way. From the nicely steamed buns to the great quality weiner, served hot, to the perfect amount of mustard and tasty meat sauce with perfect texture to the finely chopped onions, this is how it's supposed to be. The onion rings were crispy and perfectly fried as well. Not greasy at all. Not homemade either but you're not really going to care that much because they are very tasty. The owner free handed and eyeballed the coffee milk right from a gallon jug into the cup to absolute perfect ratios. Much better than those places that have it on tap. This is a great spot for lunch if you're looking for some wieners and fries or onion rings. Super friendly service. Reasonable prices. Nice people all around. It's a great little, locally owned and operated business and those are becoming fewer and further apart nowadays. Support these kind of places or they will go away. read more

Walked right in to a small quaint spot in Warwick, RI. No gimmick, bs or anything extra, just a nice local feel from a family owned shop since the 60s, with some delicious dogs! The service from the family was excellent, and the fresh and delish weiner + fries matched. I've been on a hotdog kick lately, and this did the job! Check it out! read more

After eating ourselves full around Warwick, my friend insisted we eat a wiener all the way from here. It's a very simple place. Maybe four tables? The wieners come with mustard, onions and meat sauce. This is a no nonsense place. Get your Werner's, eat them, and get the heck out! The coffee milk was very good. It's a great place for a quick bite. read more

Sam's New York System - Coffee milk. Simply delicious - Fish & Chips Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

This place is ALL original. Some of the best wieners around, and old school lunch counter atmosphere to match. I prefer less onions, but either way their meat sauce is amazing and the buns are always perfectly soft and delicious. Don't forget the classic coffee milk. We come every summer when visiting family in RI! read more

Sam's New York System - Cawfee milk, wieners all the way, fries and cheese curds - Fish & Chips Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

While I can't attest to the wieners, as I don't eat meat, this place was a winner! My friends did enjoy the famous wieners but the friendly staff and other patrons set it apart. We stopped in after seeing this place in a local paper and were not disappointed. Everyone welcomed us and gave other local recommendations. The fries, grilled cheese and fried pickles that I did have were great as well! Would definitely recommend. It's definitely a no frills kinda place but that just added to the charm. read more

The best in RI wieners. Made how you like them. Fries go well with the wieners. Fast, quick ordering. Friendly TEAM employees. Counter, tables & chairs if you'd rather eat-in read more

Their wieners and French fries are yummy. You would not believe the menu in this little place! Ambiance is meh... but it's a wringer joint! The cook is quick and efficient! I love to walk in and get it hot and great! Best weenie place since Onyville read more

Hot, fresh,well made wieners, French fries good as well. Fast,pleasant service, nice staff. Parking was fine.

The Weiners (served all the way) were outstanding and the Chef was very pleasant and amusing. The other customers were also very friendly - one was from Cleveland enjoying his first weiner. read more

We got the weiner combo and 2 weiners "all the way". Service was fast and friendly. Loved the staff and expediency. The restaurant has a few tables and counter seating. Relatively quiet, and would definitely eat in if we had the time. read more

Great local establishment in West Warwick, Rhode Island. I had a craving for hot weiners and ended up with more. This place is a hidden gem with a friendly welcoming staff. The customers are great too as they praise the place that has been around since 1968. So, besides hot weiners,, I purchased clam strips and rice pudding (home made by the owner's mom. The food is made to order and always fresh. I highly recommend that you stop by and give Sam's NY System a try. Very nice portions that will put a smile on your face once you have a taste... read more

Their hotdogs just seem to be getting shorter and shorter. They do not have thee appearance of a normal hotdog. They really look like Vienna Sausages, but larger. They have weird blunt cut ends. They are good but I truly believe I'm getting less and less for my money! read more

Quintessential weiner joint tucked away in a strip mall in Warwick. The rolls are fresh, the dogs are grilled nicely and the sauce is meaty. Extra points because these dogs do not give me extreme gastric distress... Nice friendly service and reasonable prices in a well kept shop. No inside dining due to Covid but we found a curb in the lot and enjoyed al fresco on a nice sunny day. read more

The fish n chips - frozen square sandwich fish blocks, and frozen fries. no coleslaw. no flavor. small portion for $14. very disappointed. This is RI - NO frozen fish n chips! read more

Great menu with easy choices to select from. Cozy place with lots of memorabilia. Service is friendly and fast. Plenty of seating if you choose to dine in. I highly recommend you visit Sam's New York System and give them a try. read more

Sam's participated in the Richmond Town tree lighting. I honestly wasn't sure I wanted to try a food truck NY system dog but one whiff and I was in line. The wieners were great, soft, warm roll and a super tasty meat sauce. We will for sure be making a drive to brick and mortar location. Be sure to get a couple "all the way"! read more

We were in Rhode Island for a track meet and colleagues who are from RI said we had to have NY System Weiners. Sam's was recommended as the best choice in the Warwick area. A modest place, clean and friendly we sat at the counter. Ordered 6 Weiners all the way and asked to have a 7th wrapped up to go. Buy 6 get 1 free By the way. Had a coffee milk too & my son went with the shaved steak and fries. All were delicious and though a little smaller than regular dogs very filling. The meat *sauce* was tasty and all flavors melded well. We enjoyed watching lots of Weiners being made. While we watched the cook/owner gave us a lesson on NY system Weiners. We'll be back. read more

Weiners are always good just wish they where open later weiners are always better at 1am

Good food if you can stand the scenery Sam's is a relatively small place, just a few tables and a counter with a limited menu. I suspect a lot of people order food here for take out. The meals are good and inexpensive. Not a lot to choose from but what they make they make well. Hamburgers, cheeseburgers, grilled cheese, chicken sandwiches, hot wieners, and of course fish and chips comprise they majority of the menu. Some appetizers like wings, mozzarella sticks and jalapeno poppers are available but that's pretty much it. You take what they have or you go somewhere else. The portions are quite generous for the price and the food is consistently good. I guess when you make the same few things over and over you get pretty good at it. This definitely isn't heath food but it fills you up and certainly isn't deceptive. This place is exactly what it looks like. The service is quick and to the point. Not a lot of amenities or irrelevant platitudes. Here's your food, shut up and eat it. Not rude or unpleasant, just New York efficient. People come here for the food not the socializing. A pretty cool and cheap place to go if you're in the mood for a quick burger or some fish and chips. Just be warned, it is a New York place. That means the decor is New York and of course that means the inevitable shitty Yankee pictures will be hanging from the walls. Not just pictures but in this case posters. Huge posters. I can see why most people take the food to go. Sitting under a huge poster of Derek Jeter or A-Rod definitely can take your appetite away. Good food if you can stand the scenery read more

Service was trash and chaotic, food was good tho

Wow, this place is awesome. We're visiting from Boston and wanted some fast, tasty food. The guy behind the counter was very friendly and served us up 3 wieners. Normally I'm not much of a hot dog fan - my wife and I both loved these! read more

Very good - simple little spot where you can oh my God sit and watch the chef prepare your order I had the wiener basket with two wieners prepared all the way and french fries and the chef asked me if I wanted salt on them or not which I thought was really nice and they were hot and delicious and really cool really interesting authentic Rhode Island cuisine read more

Went for lunch with Kev-dog. Classic wiener. It was perfect. I just had one and that worked out great, there was no post traumatic heartburn or gross burps. Also had fries - average and a cheese burger - average Wiener was the shining star. Guy behind counter also had shirt unbuttoned at the top with some Chest hair showing which made everything feel so much more authentic. Highly recommended. Don't play games though just get wieners here. read more

Sam's New York System - Fish & Chips Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

They put the NY in NY System. A NY Yankees museum on the walls. One of the oldest and best Wiener Joints in RI. For those reasons alone any lover of NY System has to try this place. I sure miss having me some. read more

The absolute best hot wieners in RI, hands down!! Whether I order takeout or delivery my food order is always prepared quick and delicious. The staff are always very kind and the restaurant is always clean and tidy. If you're looking for a great meal that doesn't break your bank Sam's New York System is for you! read more

As a typical RI'er, we wanted to find a wiener joint closer than heading to Olneyville. After reading some reviews, decided Sam's was the place to try. Less than 2 miles away, can't beat that- natives! These wieners (and I love that word) are pretty damn tasty! I'm not a fries gal, but those were soft and yummy, not the least bit burnt! Ordered mine all the way! A bit pricey inflation is what it is, so no more dollar wieners! We will be back! read more

This is a very special review for me. Not only is it my 100th review (Yea!!!) it is also my 1st review as an Elite Yelper !!! Rah, rah, rah !!!! I am currently visiting my home state of Rhode Island. When "home" I always seek out my RI favorites. Newport, maple walnut ice cream, coffee syrup, and of course,, hot wieners!!! What is a weiner you ask? Well, it's a very small, orangey colored "hot dog". This delicacy is served on a steamed bun (so it's hot and soft) and it's a MUST to order it "all the way" which means it has yellow mustard, chopped raw onion. a meat sauce, and sprinkled with celery salt. Mmmmmm. heaven on a roll !! And Sam's makes them pretty darn good. I also ordered some fries for my grandson and they were pretty good, very creamy, not at all dry & hard. Years ago, in a good weiner joint (it is NEVER a nice restaurant, but a dive, as is Sam's. A few tables and a few seats at a counter) the guy making the wieners used to line the buns up his arm so that he had about a dozen of them lined up his hairy arm. Ewwwwwww... not at all It was a marvel... and we loved to see how many he could do at one time. I'm sure the department of health put a stop to this because I do not see that happen any more. :-( I have no doubt that every time I visit my son, I will come to Sam's. Cost me $10 for 3 wieners and a medium order of fries. Bring cash! I guess that's pretty good, but I remember when they were $1 each! They will give you one free one if you order 6 however. So if two of you go and get wieners, it's easy to eat six because these are small dogs! But I LOVE them !!!! read more

I'm from Chicago and these are the best hot weiners I've ever had. Actually if you haven't tried one you need to stop in, but you'll order more than 1 read more

Always amazing! Don't ever change! I don't go often, but when I do it's exactly what I wanted. 2 all the way with a side of fries, yum!

I've lived in RI all my life. Throughout my childhood I heard people talk about wieners. And I would giggle... Then when my SO called them GAGGERS. Well, that made me giggle even more. But there's nothing funny about them. After living two decades in this wiener obsessed state, I tried my first one HERE at Sam's. It was like onion topped meaty mustardy heaven on a bun! I like my gaggers "all the way." I can't compare these gaggers to other places, as I've only come to Sam's since. But I'm addicted. The only downside is that they're closed Sunday's AND it is CASH ONLY! read more

I give the home-made onion rings five stars. Period. I give the wieners 4.0 stars. The best we've had recently. The counter guy was good to us too, even if the guy is a Yankees fan, which shows everywhere in the shop. Menu looks real good, and we're coming back for other stuff. If you are a Yankees fan, you should go here on principle. We have been to three wiener places this week, me, Andres and Omar. We agreed that Sam's was better than the last batch we got in Olneyville. Hard to find, so if you look for the Subway Sandwich on Sandy Lane, you can find this place. It's in the wedge of stores between Sandy Land and West Shore Rd as you're heading to the ice rink, and then it's immediately on your right. We spent 45 minutes just looking for the place. read more

Before you come at me for talking about the chicken at a mostly wiener place.. let me tell you about how damn good the chicken was. I was feeling some chicken tenders and I love NY System places. I was not disappointed in the slightest. Some of the best chicken I have ever had. Sams has that fire regardless of what you get. Ive been in maybe 5 or so times in the last month or two and every time I go, no matter what I order, I am happy I went! read more

Worst wieners I ever had, cold and tasteless, they are more of a hot dog​ than a wiener, never again

The food was delicious. I'm from Maine, where we don't have Weiners. The staff suggested I get them, "all the way." It was a great choice. I also had the coffee milk. In Maine, we could buy pre-made coffee milk. Here, they mix milk with a coffee syrup. It was very good. The staff was friendly and helpful with having me experience a Rhode Island food staple. I highly recommend Sam's New York System. The only drawback, they are a cash only establishment. It was definitely worth going out to get cash. read more
