Been here twice. It's a catfish, shrimp, burgers place. Reasonable priced and good portions. Well lit, large open seating area with lots of windows. A little bit of a dinner atmosphere, but more spacious. We got catfish and shrimp. Both were excellent. Small, but tasty hush puppies. Good coleslaw. Counter service was excellent, wait time for food was reasonable. Hot, fresh and good! Definitely coming back! It's a must try, if you haven't! read more

Good fish basket. Service was speedy and friendly. Inside the restaurant is the old country store vibe.

Really good fish l and sides and good price. Seems like a chain but still did ok for a walk up on order spot. The kids working there seemed bored but the place was clean and not very busy. read more

Clean place, friendly staff, but everything we ordered was overdone to the point of being inedible - except the green beans, which were fabulous. Sadly, we wound up throwing most of it away. Next time I'll try a burger read more

This place was sparkling clean, and the service was outstanding!! We wanted to share meals so we ordered the shrimp poboy and fries as one and the Catfis shrimp and crabcake dinner with sides. It was very large!! Come with a big appetite. The shrimp poboy was my favorite. The catfish was also good. Something different for fast food and very tasty. read more

No line waited 20 minutes for my food !! No help from front staff. I'm standing at counter with people looking at me while I watch the people restock condiments. The 2 stars are because the food was ok. read more

Great grilled shrimp options that are way better than all the fried food. Nice change

The food is AMAZING! This was my first time eating here, and it won't be my last! Thank you for the awesome service and food!

Love the food. So we'll prepared. Not dried out at all. Exceptional for a fast food eatery.!

Sam's is a 5 star meal in a fast-food eatery. I had grilled shrimp, fries and red beans and rice. Served quick to the counter. read more

Red beans and rice were good. Rice was different as it was short grain usually made with long grain rice. Also the fish fillet. I don't believe it to be American catfish. believe it basa fillets since they don't specify what the species on the menu read more

Excellent food! My favorite is the gumbo and 4 piece fish!! I would recommend this place to anyone! I have become a regular!

We ordered a variety of items with our family group. Everything was good, very tasty. They are currently remodeling so you can't dine it but that should be only short term. A few reasons not 5 star: -staff was not very knowledgeable about menu and did not know what several of the items were when we ordered it - shrimp were not carefully prepped: more than half the shell was left on each so when deep fried so most of the breading came off with tail, shells not carefully removed for the de-tailed shrimp in the po boy so you had to take each shrimp out of sandwich, remove section of shell & then put it back in the sandwich. All containers & cups were styrofoam, for hot fried food this is not the best choice and styrofoam cups are notoriously bad at cracking and spilling when full and are so large don't fit in cup holders. Switching to better togo containers & cups would make a nice difference. Overall not mama's cooking but solid southern food. Remodel looks like on a good start. read more

I was visiting Kansas for Christmas and a friend had just come from Sam's and recommended it. I would say food presentation was just okay but the food was great, the prices are amazing, sizes are very quality portions and the facility was very clean and spacious. I'd go again. Thanks for the crab cakes, green beans and red beans & rice. read more

Y'all I looked at the menu and was like idk about that especially in Hutchinson Kansas ... but let me tell you I'm so happy I came and went to lunch with my mom ... when I tell you my food was amazing that's an understatement I was sucking the seasoning off my fingers like I was at house .. the staff was nice greeted us as we came in the door checked on us and how we liked the food the cook doubted me didn't think I could finish my food he won't make that mistake again read more

Better than fast food. Everything needed more seasoning. Nice atmosphere. Prompt and friendly staff.

Just noticed this place and decided to stop on in. Looks like a fairly new place, nice location and was very clean. You place your order at the counter, which was super easy. They give you a number and bring your food to you. The Fish, shrimp and chicken we had were superb! It was all made fresh to order. The cole slaw was better than most also. My platter had enough for two of us! Will definitely be back! read more

There aren't many fast food seafood restaurants in the area, so SSE has no comparable competition. The menu doesn't have many key items but there are a variety of mix & match options. FOH service was friendly & helpful. BOH staff hustled. The atmosphere is no frills, but you don't go for the atmosphere. The prices could be considered a tad high, but we're not anywhere near the typical harvest waters. Since this was our first experience at any SSE, we sampled quite a few items. All was rather good, however the hush puppies were too hard and some of the oysters tasted fishy. The plastic utensils are horrible. East facing outside seating with umbrellas is a welcomed choice. read more

Best RedBeans&Rice I've had! Good food, good price. Thanks for lunch - and I'll probably be back tomorrow, so make a big pot of those beans! read more

This is a wonderful place to eat a quick meal and it ver good the help is courteous and the place is clean

Best seafood, fish, chicken and great prices! You get more than you can eat. Very helpful and friendly staff. We love this place!!

I'm very disappointed in this place. My fiance and I tried this place for the first time today. When we saw the menu got excited. Ended up spending over $75 not being able to make up our minds on what to get. But that was only 2 appetizers and 4 entrees. Best way to describe this was a very skewed Midwest take on southern food....like all they knew is what to serve not how to make it. Everything lacked in flavor. I use more seasoning in my own home. The place was dirty too. Several dirty tables and the floor was sticky and trash that was stuck around all the tables feet. It was hot and humid inside. The cashier, Asia, was very friendly and kind. She was patient with us the whole time we tried to make up our minds. I'm very appreciative for her honesty as well when we asked about the coleslaw. read more
