Sam's Southern Eatery

Looks like an old Sonic. I ordered the 2 piece fish 6 piece shrimp with fries and fried okra. Firstly, everything was fresh! Hot and tasty. I realized halfway thru my meal that I hadn't received 2 hush puppies, so I went inside to request them. I could've passed on the hush puppies. The cocktail sauce for the shrimp seemed a little too stiff for dipping. Outside of these 2 things my meal was OUTSTANDING!!! Highly recommended! Price was great for the food. They have the big shrimp, not those little shrimp nugget things. I was soooo full, but so grateful to have found this place!

If you like fried livers, this is your spot. The prices are great. The fried fish, shrimp, and french fries are great. The crab cakes are delicious. There was one item that I wasn't a fan of but I can't remember if it was the corn or coleslaw. I'm looking forward to trying other items on the menu.

This restaurant is great. The place is clean. The food is packaged well. The orders have never been wrong & the food is always wonderful and the service is great too!!! Thank you C&C From one of our customers. Everyone is welcome to come try for themselves. Dont forget to try the fried green tomatoes fried pickles fried mushrooms crabcakes fried okra and oysters. Everything i have tried has been amazing. Merry Christmas to all and all be safe!!!!!

Probably the best hole in the wall eatery for seafood I've ever been to! Food is fresh, and GREAT! The building is an old Sonic, but the food is great!

If you want true southern comfort food that tastes great in Texarkana, Sam's is is definitely the place. The ladies working there are also the sweetest.

Me and my son stop by to have lunch and we were not disappointed. I had the chicken livers combo, the breading was light and crispy. The livers was moist and tasty with some seasoned fries and Mac $ cheese. Wasn’t impressed with the the Mac and cheese. Then I tried the chicken Philly. This sandwich was full of flavor. I really liked the chicken Philly. My sides was red beans and rice and coleslaw

I loved this place my son loves the fried catfish and the fries are pretty amazing too. The Philly cheese 🧀 steak 🥪 sandwich is really good as well.

Fried jumbo shrimp were great! Hassle free ordering and the food was steaming hot! Highly recommended!

This particular Sam's Southern Eatery looked like a former Sonic fast food diner. The seating was outside. Eating outside at 1pm in Texas in the middle of July. Chile please. And we did!! Lol! I just had my car detailed for our trip to Tennessee. Anyway it was a hidden treasure. The food was hot, fresh, seasoned, and good. 5 finger snaps

I ordered the grilled tilapia plate. GRILLED TO PERFECTION! with grilled onions and peppers. Red beans and rice were good Cole slaw was extra creamy and delicious. Hush puppies were tasty😊 I'm so satisfied!

Always courteous when I arrive as a customer or a dasher! The food is fantastic!!!!!

It was very yummy. The staff was eager to help us. I really loved the fried shrimp and red beans & rice. It was the first time I had spicy hush puppies and they were really good too. The fish was a little too "fishy" for me, but that's just me. The breading of it was really delicious. I will get the tilapia instead next time since it has a milder flavor.

Decent prices, great food! Only problem I have is my son tries to steal it all when I get home. Great food!! Try the liver dinner it's awesome and the fish is excellent.

Holy moly! What a great value! Dont pass this place up! I highly recommend the fried pickles..the kids chicken nuggets.. and the fish basket. They give you ample quantities! My only suggestion is to supply lemon/lime/tartar sauce. Will be back!

Went to visit my granddaughter and her boyfriend eating in the car here.He gave me half his Philly Cheese steak.It was super tasty! 😋 That seafood looks delicious. It's drive up like the Sonic that was there before.A good place that we could visit too!!ATE here again and the fish is very good!! Waiter outstanding.

Go here. Not the same as Hickory Street location. Lots of the reviews are for that one. There are different owners. I got the shrimp/fish combo. Too much to eat. Great left over in air fryer. Will come back when on that side of town.

The fish is great. This is an old sonic drive in and ordering is confusing the first time. You can go in and order they come out. No dine in, only taken out.

Ya'll!!! WOW!!!! I can't even begin to tell you how amazing the food and experience was at Sam's Southern Eatery! First, the fried fish was P.E.R.F.E.C.T!!! I usually douse my fish in tartar sauce but didn't even dip in until half way through - and the sauce was the best I have ever had!!! It literally topped every expectation!!! The restaurant was SO clean! Jasmyne, my waitress was very attentive, sweet and all around precious! If you have not tried this restaurant you are truly missing out! Fantastic guys!!!!!!!

Day trip to Texarkana left us looking for lunch! So glad we found this place! Food was excellent and the service was wonderful! Sweet girl came out and took our order. Just so you know, this is not a dine in place. We didn't mind eating in the truck at all. They do have some pic nic tables as well. If you find yourself looking for a good meal, stop on by!
