Went in for lunch with two friends. Place seemed a little small, rundown, and in need of some TLC, but those places can often be hidden gems, so I soldiered on. Service was very polite and attentive. I ordered a plate a fried oysters, fried chicken livers, and fried shrimp. One friend had a fish sandwich, and the other had a gyro. Food took a little longer than expected, and the soda machine wasn't working 100%, but I remained hopeful. Unfortunately my hopes were dashed when my food came. I should say, the shrimp was extremely good well seasoned crispy juicy everything you would want in fried shrimp, and my dining companion really liked the fries that came with his fish sandwich. That's about all the praise I can give it, my oysters were a little gamey, and my chicken livers were absolutely drier than the Kalahari and tasted like fishy sawdust, no amount of hot sauce saved them, and for the first time in a long time I threw out food. The fish sandwich, and gyro also didn't win any awards. They also completely forgot to bring out my friend's dessert. Right as we were finishing up a moldy spot near the ceiling AC vent dripped water right into my dining companions cup, which was just the icing on the cake, which is ironic, because we never got my friends slice of cake. This place needs a lot of help. read more

I ordered a Cuban Sandwich and received sliced loaf ham, lettuce, tomato, onion, 3 slices of pickle, mayo, provolone chess on untoasted, unpressed bread. There was no mustard at all. Why advertise a culturally appropriated sandwich and not know how to properly prepare it. The food has changed for the worse and is no longer being prepared as it was initially. read more

Food is excellent and fresh. A little pricey, but worth it. HOWEVER As of today 03-03-25 the website menu is NOT accurate and they would not honor the pictures and pricing. Of course everything is going up but at let people know. That is why I am including a picture of their current menu. If you look closely on the back it reads "prices are subject to change " so watch out. read more

We were introduced to Sam's for the first time from some local friends. We decided to go through the drive-through on our way home this early evening today Sunday, January 11, 2026. We met Mandi who was very kind courteous and welcoming and gave us her recommendations based on my asking for them. The food was excellent! You're mild sauce is fire for the wings! The wings were great.! The shrimp was wonderful and we wanted to send a kudos/shout outto Mandi for being hospitable and kind. We will definitely be back and we will definitely be letting our friends know to make sure that you frequent Sam's seafood and grill As a person who manages 150 people in the healthcare industry, it's always great when you have employees who understand kindness, and customer service, nothing over the top just kind and courteous so thank you to Mandi. read more

Great food at reasonable prices. Been there several times. Food is always good. Pan seared Bass is my favorite.

I would rate Sam's a 3.5... sometimes my food and service is a 4-star fast food experience (quick and delicious), and sometimes it's not. I visit this restaurant frequently for the chicken. The tenders are really good and a great price. The wings are hit or miss; however, when fried well, they are really good. The side salads are also great options, since they aren't just plain and full of lettuce. Overall, give it a try! Does the job for a quick dinner option in Leesburg. The prices continuously go up, but that seems to be the norm these days. Looking forward to the special deals coming back. read more

Wife had the fried shrimp and was happy so I was happy too! I tried one of her shrimp and I agreed they were good

This is a good go to spot. The drive thru is always super quick. I've never had any problems with my orders when I go here, no matter what time it is. I tend to stop by here late, after a party night. The chicken and ranch here is so good. It's hits that right spot that is needed. So get drunk, eat this chicken when you need it. I always do. read more

Everything is cooked hot and fresh... I have to be honest! I was too greedy to post ALL the food! They have a drive through and everything was and is cooked the order! Yes hot, ready, & delicious!

Great local fast food place with out of the box options!! This place has menu items that most other fast food restaurants don't: jalapeño poppers, fried shrimp, fried mushrooms, gyros, and more!!! Price is also VERY reasonable, if not cheap. Quality food, great options, and quick service. What more could you want from a drive thru restaurant? read more

When staying in Leesburg Florida there are some very interesting places to eat at. Sam's should be on the top of your list. This place is clean as can be. The food is cooked to order and very fresh. Hot and delicious! We came in this evening around 630, and let me tell you this place has a steady stream of locals coming in and ordering. Most take it to go, bit we opted to eat in. We settled for the shrimp plates, added to that the calamari and a side of okra. Everything was very good. No it was better than very good, it was excellent. If you find yourself in the middle of Florida and are looking for a great place to eat you can't go wrong here at all, read more

Great food. A bit smaller blackened tilapia more French fries than usual. Shrimp was fantastic

Although our food was pretty good, I was very surprised that none of the employees were taking ANY precautions regarding food handling. None were wearing masks, hair nets, gloves, etc. The back door was standing wide opened. In this day of the Covid virus, I feel that simple CDC guidelines should be followed, especially in the food handling industry. I will not go back to Sam's under these conditions. read more

Everything was delicious, fresh, and cooked quickly to order! The only minor suggestion would be a little more butter for the grilled fish and maybe include a few hush puppies. But next time I'm in Leesburg this will be a must go to!! It was fun to see this building go from a SunBank (way back in the 1980s) to TCBY yogurt place, to Krystal's, and now to a delicious hope it continues on for a long long time Sam's Seafood and Chicken place! read more

Really not bad at all for fast food seafood. Way better than Long John's. My only issue is the false advertising. They have a picture in the window of their shrimp bowl loaded with shrimp, but in actuality you just get 8 shrimp. read more

Shrimps were fresh, mozzarella sticks were good. I really wasn't expecting much but I was surprised on how good the food is!! Will definitely eat here again. read more

We were looking for something reasonable, but a step above the local fast food places. This was our first visit to Sam's and we were pleasantly surprised. Our shrimp was lightly battered and cooked exactly right. The fries were very good and servings were generous. The staff here were all good natured and friendly. We would go back to try one of the rice bowls or the grilled shrimp or fish. read more

My husband and I stopped here and I have to say we were very pleasantly surprised. It looks like a very typical fast food place but the menu and the food are far from typical! We both had the shrimp rice bowl and it was full of veggies, beans, rice and shrimp, seasoned well, and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be going back to try other things on the menu. read more

I ate here a few times when they first opened. Today I went to the drive through and ordered the Fried Shrimp and Onion Rings. I took it home about 3 minutes away. I originally checked the bag and thought I had Cocktail Sauce and Tartar Sauce, it wasn't tartar, it was Ranch. The onion rings were soggy and greasy, I tried to crisp them up in the Air Fryer to no avail, way too much grease. The Shrimp were not quite as bad, but not crispy either and very little flavor. I ate a few bites and couldn't eat anymore. read more

I have to give it up for these guys. The menu is pretty large but I've found them to be pretty consistent. The food quality is good and so is the value. A great place for the family as there is something for everyone. Probably the restaurant we frequent most for these very reasons. Keep it up! read more

This place was excellent. Pulled in not expecting much but needed something quick. It may look like a fast food place (and it was fast) but the Seafood Platter was as hot, good and fresh as any place I've been. I ordered it fried but you can get it grilled or Cajun also. This place should have a line around the block! It was that good! Don't know if it's locally owned /operated or the story but whoever owns this place and whoever was responsible for my dinner tonight, great job! read more

Great very fresh seafood every time we went there. Like the fact foods is cooked when ordered. Only thing I don't like is take out food is served in Styrofoam containers. That stuff can be toxic! Please, there are better recyclable options. workers should wear gloves if she has fake nails. read more
