    Shrimp Po-boy with Hush Puppies
    Richard Walton C.

    I have been wanting to try this place so today I did. They have a larger than expected dining room. It was clean and well maintained. I ordered the Shrimp Po-Boy with Hush Puppies. The po-boy was excellent! I even got an extra jumbo shrimp in my basket. The hush puppies were of the jalapeño variety. They were equally as good as the sandwich. Service was fast and accurate. The food came right out. I didn't have to wait long at all. I'm definitely coming back for more.

    May not be Philly -- but it's Philly good! Nice menu selection with decent prices! Friendly service! The fish and shrimp are delicious as well! If you haven't been to this hidden gem - todays a good day! Clean with friendly atmosphere

    Oysters and shrimp plate.
    Nina C.

    Really good Shrimp and fried mushrooms. The crab cake and oysters were good as well just not great like the shrimp. Sam's is like a fast food seafood place. You order at the counter, fix your own drink and find a table. Then they bring your food to the table in red baskets on checkered paper. They need stronger plastic forks. The restaurant was immaculate as were the restrooms. We enjoyed our meal,service and how quickly our food was served.

    Cheap but amazing food, country music running in the background. Amazing tartar sauce, red bean and rice, and coleslaw.

    Grilled oysters, shrimp, and catfish. Let's eat!

    This is a good Cajun seafood place. The oysters and shrimp were superb and the prices were great. Great side dishes and pleasant staff.

    Great seafood, fast and hot. Server at window though was rude and distant, almost annoyed at my presence.

    Never disappoints. The catfish is the best in town. Wish they had a fresh salad as a side order, though.

    Great new place. Brownwood needed a seafood option. The catfish is perfect and the shrimp is excellent.

    Brownwood, Texas. Fine dining. Craft Cocktails. One of these things is not like the other...until…read moreyou visit Lucille + Mabel. This is fine dining. Anywhere. Any city - big or small. Completely unexpected just a few miles from Camp Bowie. Reservations recommended. Came with a group and snagged half a dozen seats at the bar. Started with cocktails. Everyone was pleased. Heavy pours. Austin prices. Totally worth it. You know you are in the presence of culinary excellence when the menu is limited to less than a dozen items. Crab cakes. That is all. Order it. Eat it. Move along. Korean fried chicken is the bomb ! Get it. No regrets. As is the wedge. Pick a steak. Order it medium rare. It's truly that good. And, apparently, even if you aren't a fan of mac&chz - you can (and should) get it with seafood, steak, or that f'n delicious Korean fried chicken. Just get it to go and arm wrestle your 9 year old for it tomorrow. Poor kid is going hungry... Exceptional service. Owner is welcoming and awesome. Bar manager is awesome. Ambiance is awesome. We're coming back.

I had the Beef Wellington with Stilton sauce. It was the most tender, perfectly cooked piece of beef I've ever eaten. The mashed potatoes were amazing, as well. Service was extraordinary. Every morsel of food was prepared to perfection. I can't wait to return.
