The steak is always cooked to perfection, and the baked potatoes are absolutely massive! Our favorite appetizer is the shrimp--it's consistently delicious and something we look forward to every visit. The drinks are always made perfectly, too.

The atmosphere has that classic, old-school steakhouse charm with a warm, family feel while still being upscale enough to make any meal feel like a special occasion. Whether you're planning a date night or celebrating something special, this is the perfect place. We always leave looking forward to our next visit! read more

Had an amazing dinner at Sam's steakhouse! I'd heard so many good things about it, but this was my first time, and it totally lived up to the hype. We started with the appetizer sampler, and wow, everything was fantastic. The crispy t-ravs were perfect, the crab cakes were delicious, but the real star was the shrimp Louisiana. Those shrimp were so flavorful and juicy in that garlic sauce...absolutely incredible! For my main course, I went with the ribeye, and it was huge and charred to perfection. The cook on it was spot on, just how I like it. And the loaded potato? Also huge and packed with all the good stuff. Plus, they had complimentary bread and some seriously delicious old fashioneds. Our server, Tyler, took great care of us all night. We're definitely going back! read more

Stopped in on a whim on a Thursday evening after being at Kutis nearby. Not very busy. Service was top notch and I honestly felt bad I stopped in for a more casual dinner than they are known for. The house salad with Mayfair dressing was delicious and really hit the spot! Really enjoyed the crab cakes, Louisiana Shrimp and big round toasted ravioli's. Will be back for a special occasion and order a steak because darn did they look good. And the potatoes! read more

The water is a little too wet. Everything about this place is great. Luke makes one of the best Bloody Marys in Saint Louis. Sam's is a true old time steakhouse. Great prime rib. Baked potatoes as big as your head. Great atmosphere. Live music in the bar. If you've never been, add to your to do list. read more

Wow this place was gorgeous walking into for the holidays! Christmas lights was a vibe! Came here with family for my bfs bday. We all got French style prime ribs and surf n turf. I personally like the cowboy ribeye more. Everything is big portions so worth the price. We got reservations so came in right when they opened Saturday at 5 but by 7 place was packed. read more

Old school Steakhouse with an excellent staff both in the dining room and at the bar. Started at the bar for some nice cocktails, wanted a Calumet Bourbon, but ended up drinking something else. Moved to the dining room and we had the Prime Rib and a Fillet. Both done to perfection, both served with the paper wrapped Baked Potato. The bread and salad were both good, not great. A great experience for the old-time supper club feeling. I would feel great bring my kids or my grandparents here for any special occasion. We were walk-ins on a Tuesday night, and had no trouble getting a table, but when we left - every table was full. 2 people with drinks $140. read more

Sam's Steakhouse - Great bar at Sam's. Nice Bourbon selection. - Steakhouses Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

We had a lovely dinner at Sam's. All of the food was great and it had great service. It's a nicer restaurant with someone playing piano. For two people to have a 6 ounce fillet each, upgraded sides, salad, bread, an appetizer and a bottle of wine, it was about $200 total. So pricey, but nothing outrageous and probably less than some other steakhouses. Everything was great, but probably my favorite thing was the crabcake appetizer. And the warm bread that they brought to the table was amazing! Probably some of my favorite free bread I've ever had. read more

What a festive atmosphere! Sam's is decked out at Christmas time with very tasteful decor. So many white lights set a beautiful backdrop for dinner. We made reservations, walked right in and were seated. The service was excellent throughout the whole meal. Our drinks were never more than half empty. We started with the appetizer sampler. The toasted ravioli were large, circular and very flavorful. Shrimp Louisiana was lovely but could have used a bit more flavor. The crab cake stole the show with a delightful sauce. For dinner we had the salmon - perfectly cooked with a lovely sauce. And the porterhouse. My dining partner ordered it medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. Dinners are served with a mixed greens salad (the Mayfair dressing is great) and a baked potato. The potato was served piping hot and had a great texture and flavor. Overall dining at Sam's was a wonderful experience. read more

First time coming here to celebrate our Anniversary!!! At first we thought we were underdressed and needed fancy clothes but all was good!!! lol We were quickly seated to a table and the entire wait staff were very attentive. Your water glass will never be half full. The Moscato and Tito's and soda were good. Started off with the Smoked Porkbelly Deviled Eggs. They were yummy. Who knew drizzling maple syrup on them would elevate the taste. I could have used more PorkBelly!! The Ribeye was amazing!!! And the Grantwood Filet with Bernaise and Lobster was good, but lacked seasonings. The Salads (Wedge and House) were good. We were treated to a complimentary Piece of Flourless Chocolate cake to celebrate!!! The cake was good but Rich!!!! read more

Sorry for the late review, 4 of us went to Sam's last Saturday. Sophia was our waitress, she made the evening so enjoyable. Service was spot on, the food was second to none. After the dinner she suggested we go to the bar. Once we got there Tom Kelly was singing and the evening finished with a bang. Thx so much for the evening Lauara. read more

Superb. We loved everything about this place. The ambience was charming "upscale steakhouse". The service was delightful. And the meal - I had the Peppercorn Strip - was outstanding. A perfect cut, perfectly prepared. In a town filled with terrific locally-owned restaurants, this was the best dining experience we've had in a long time. read more

Our food was fine. Not worth the $200+ we spent. I got the lobster and my husband got a steak. Reservations were at 6:30 and we didn't leave until after 9:00. And it was not due to us hanging out and drinking. It was because it would be 40 minutes before our server, Arthur W, came back to check on us. My husband waited with an empty wine glass for 37 minutes. Not an exaggeration. Plenty of tables around us came after in us and left before us. I will say, the young man plying the piano was very impressive and talented. read more

We were there for a large birthday party. Truly fine dining. The service was excellent, as was the food. Darker ambiance, but with tiny lights everywhere making it somewhat magical. Combined with the piano player, it was a unique experience. The portions are huge, so be prepared to take a "doggy bag" home. Everyone at the table said their entree was 'the best". The maitre d came around multiple times to make sure everyone at the table were happy with everything. read more

Great service, quality of dishes - love the ambiance, especially at Christmas timethis place is so special!

Totally outstanding experience in every way. Outstanding service -- helpful, personable and skilled service who took great care of us; attentive wait staff who kept glasses full (mostly water and soda) and clean plates in front of us; excellence food all around. From the large shrimp cocktail with sauce that tasted homemade, incredible stuffed eggs, perfectly spiced steaks and fish, delicious chicken and more, it was all delicious. Oh, their amazing large baked potatoes are even special. We go the standard large ones (butter, chives and sour cream, but they have an optional "loaded"'one for an extra charge that is filled with cheese, bacon, and chives. The ambiance was old style steakhouse and added to the evening. read more

Sadly I guess I'll never get to try their food. We came in hungry on a rainy Thursday evening. We planned to post up at the bar and have dinner. When we walked in the hostess was kind, and we mentioned we wanted to sit at the bar. She pointed us in the right direction and that's when it took a turn. Once seated, the older gentleman bartender asked if we wanted drinks. We requested menus and drink menus. Boyfriend has a serious gluten allergy. We asked the bartender about whether a few appetizers were gluten free. He said they should be. We requested he ask to be sure, which he did. When he came back, I asked if there was someone in the kitchen that could mark the menu for items safe from gluten boyfriend could eat. He said, and I quote, "We don't do that here." Needless to say we left. How can we order without proper knowledge of what's in the food? It's a restaurant. They should be able to tell me what's safe for gluten free diners to have. Super disappointing. read more

The staff was absolutely amazing! The steaks on the other hand were absolutely abysmal. The cuts of meat, a 24oz porterhouse and a 16oz bone in ribeye were tough, cut to thin and slathered in a what tasted like store bought demiglaze from TGI Fridays. If you going to advertise being a 5 star steakhouse ,teach your chefs how to properly prepare a proper piece of meat. I absolutely loath big chain steakhouses but the food here wasn't even comparable to Outback! I suggest the owner call Gordon Ramsey from Kitchen Nightmares and learn how to prepare a proper steak! read more

Sam's is an all around great place for food, service and ambiance! As you enter, staff are friendly and welcoming. You can walk in or make reservations. I recommend making reservations as it gets pretty crowded. I have walked in and eaten in the bar area which is my preference. Every time I have been here the food has been cooked to perfection! Sam's also has wide range of cocktails, beer and wine. I have been impressed with their wine list that pair well with their delicious steaks! The bartenders are knowledgeable and can recommend cocktails, wine and beer if you aren't sure or want to try something new. Sam's is the perfect place for a traditional steak and potatoes meal! read more

I enjoyed my first experience at Sam's Steakhouse. It was a journey, but it was worth the drive. We celebrated a friend's birthday and Scorpio season to the fullest. I had the lobster bisque to start, but felt a little misled by the menu and was expecting larger-sized lobster pieces on top of the bisque. We also had the crabcakes that tasted a bit undercooked. However, my friends loved the pork belly deviled eggs! My filet mignon was butterflied and tasted lovely, and the garlic mashed potatoes were whipped perfectly, thick, and DELICIOUS. My wedge salad was great and everyone enjoyed their steaks. The brandy peppercorn sauce was also very good. It looks and feels like an old 1990s traditional steakhouse and the staff were helpful and attentive. read more

We just dined at Sam's this week and it was decorated so festively for the holidays. Lights and Christmas decor adorned every inch of the restaurant. Sam's Steakhouse is an often forgotten gem in South St. Louis County. With over three decades of service, this locally owned establishment has consistently delivered excellent steaks as well as items for other dietary restrictions. I personally had the crab cakes #stlouispescatarianapproved @stlouispescatarians on instagram. It was delicious lump crab. We also shared the Louisiana Shrimp for the table. The charming setting on the historic Busch family estate, Grant's Farm, adds an extra touch of elegance to the overall atmosphere. A visit to Sam's followed by the enchanting Grant's Farm light display creates the perfect date night. Highly recommend for those seeking a memorable and delicious dining experience., especially during the holidays. read more

Well It was my Wedding Anniversary special dinner and my understanding wife let me take a few pix for this review. We thoroughly enjoyed this evening it was a night of great steak ,sides and complementary anniversary dessert. My wife had the 6oz. ribeye and I had the peppercorn steak medallions . We both had a baked potato with basic toppings butter and sour cream with chives. To compliment the food we had the house Chardonnay and Cabernet . The service was fantastic, Mitchell, our server was helpful in deciding what item had garlic in it. As you know garlic is a no-no for my wife. Our special dinner was cooked as desired very tender and steak flavorful. No overbearing flavors, just steak flavor. The baked potato was very large and soft , smooth and delicious. As a nice touch Sam's offered us a chocolate tort that was awesome tasting and very rich and and heavy on the chocolate. We enjoyed the night. We had a quiet romantic room almost to ourselves. The atmosphere is quiet, dark and if I would say a step back in time with background music with the "rat pack" in mind. You should absolutely treat yourself to a visit to Sam's Steakhouse at least once. It is pricey but expected especially for a special night to celebrate. read more

Attended a post holiday party for work on Friday January 2nd from 12 to 5pm. Open bar and for dinner choice of salmon, filet mignon, or ribeye with salad and large baked potato loaded or however you wanted it. 2nd time the company has had it there and both times excellent. Servers and bartenders were very efficient and polite. I hope they made a lot of money cause I and several of my coworkers were giving out twenties. The restaurant is always over decorated for Christmas but that seems to be a draw for returning customers. I have been there on other occasions and have thoroughly enjoyed every detail. read more

Attended our bi-annual wine group dinner at Sam's. The ambience. And atmosphere would take you back 50 years when it was a treat to eat at such an elegant upscale steak house, it's as if you are waiting for Frank, Dean and Sammy to perform. The food is excellent and the twice baked potato is the best I have ever had. Go and have a dinning experience as our grandparents had.. Truly a generational restaurant in the burbs. Worth the drive. read more

A friend and I stopped in to the bar to grab a bite after a visitation at Kutis. We just wanted and appetizers and a glass of wine. Perfect. Sam's was still decorated beautifully for the holidays. Just lovey and cozy. The bar was busy with people and chatting with the bartender and each other. Just a nice local bar feel. I tried the Sauvignon blanc. My friend ordered a shrimp cocktail and I chose the stuffed mushrooms. The wine was perfectly crisp and dry and went very well with the stuffed mushrooms. I was completely satisfied with just 4 stuffed mushrooms. We did also have some bread and butter. Great food. Really welcoming cozy neighborhood feel. I would definitely go back! read more

Great atmosphere in this place! It's been in St. Louis since 1992. The wait was a little bit (they were dealing with a newly paved parking lot in 98 degree heat- they still gave excellent communication!), but it was well worth it. I had great service. The food was hot and fresh and I was impressed by how quickly they got it to me. I had the prime rib with Sam's signature sauce and a side of mushrooms. It was A+. Cooked and seared to perfection. I'm happy to recommend this place and will be back. read more

The service was absolutely fantastic. Everyone was super friendly, making you feel welcome, ensuring you did not need any more water refills and everything was coming out in a timely manner.

The food was fabulous. The steak was perfectly cooked and had a great flavor & the entire meal was fantastic. Highly recommend and I will definitely be back read more

Sam's Steakhouse - Side salad, Cabernet - Steakhouses Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

See all

This old school steakhouse that seems like it's been here forever (and I do not mean that negatively) was on the "bucket list" of a friend so we double dated it here. My steak was perfectly cooked (rare) and very tasty, it came with a baked potato (of course) that I upscaled it to "loaded" but I'm not sure I needed to. The side salad is quite large for a side salad and it was also very good. The only negative was my dinner co-pilot was primed for prime rib and of course, they were sold out, so keep that in mind if you dine on the post 7pm side of the night. It was busy the night we were they and as it was a full house and it was surprisingly loud. Excellent service, great dining experience. Reservations strongly recommended. read more

THE dinning experience in STL !!! Nice quiet atmosphere with a little piano music so you can have a polite, private conversation without needing to yell over a cloud of background noise. Pleasant staff sharply attired, old school professional. AND obviously the food - crab cakes that are more crab than filler, toasted ravioli that have more filling than shell - steaks with a beautiful marinated that enhances the steak and brings out the natural flavor - served with a large baked potato wrapped in brown paper the way a great steakhouse should. There were plenty of side dishes and add ons to compliment your main dish if you choose. Dessert I can only say looked fantastic because we were all too full to even attempt splitting the wonderful look chocolate torte. I would tell you to book in advance. The charming owner told us they limit seating to make certain not to overwhelm the staff. This will now be our go to restaurant for special occasions - It's Thursday night, Thursday Is a special occasion - right ??? Enjoy - we did :) read more

I went here for my pop's birthday and it was mighty alright! Our waitress was lovingly kind and was helpful. She let us take our time and talked with us soo much. Did I ever mention the place was well-kept? The dimmed lights and the entire set-up is awesome and the table is set neat and furnishing. Outdoor was also cool. The food itself was filling to say for the least. That's what matters for the most of it. Taste was good and rich, maybe a bit much and also a bit much of salty but I thought it was good and fresh for the most part. This place is nice and elegant, great for get-togethers with friends, and family. Well done! Lovely restaraunt and staff. read more
