Reviews for Sam's St. Johns Seafood in Summerfield, FL

They have an north east family own seafood restaurant feel on Florida. The interior is set up like it from the tables to the... wood paneling on the walls. Our server was really good and super nice and so was who sat us and who we paid. The food was greatif u like fish they have a ton of options cooked anyway u could want. The price is about $20-$30 for a dinner and right now withinflation for seafood that is a hell of a price. The only reason they didn't get 5 stars is the same problem with any seafoodhere no matter where u go. Unless u are eating $100 entrees, we are 90 miles from the coast so nothing is fresh. Don't get mewrong the food was great and u get more than u could hope to finish. But if u hope to see waterman selling there catch for cashat the seafood market attached to the restaurant like the north east u will be disappointed at every seafood spot around here.They do an amazing job with what they have the cost and service way better than a chain.

Great food! Our server, Brian, had a very large party in addition to his other tables and he was on it. Refilled waters, checked... on us, great service. The hostess (didn't get her name, sorry) was great with seating us with our special needs daughter in alay down wheelchair. Thank you all! Read more

I'm in town visiting my dad and stepmom; we came to Sam's for dinner (my main objective to get conch fritters), and the... experience was way beyond enjoyable! This is an unassuming place within the Terraces Shopping Center that turns into a gem onceyou enter. Quite a large, nautical themed dining area (the mermaids were cool), fast and friendly service, and excellent food! Ihad the Scampi Fiesta with cheese grits and slaw, dad had the catfish, and stepmom had the crab legs...all the food came quicklybut hot and fresh, very large portions! The conch fritters were some of the best I've had. Our server, Vanessa, was verypersonable, friendly, and helpful; she definitely made an already enjoyable experience even more so than we'd expected! Ifyou're in the area, I highly recommend Sam's! Read more

First time ordering.. door dash.. trio seafood plate.. 6 shrimp, 5 scallops and 1 crab cake. Hardly any fries.. very... disappointed.. Read more

All you can eat shrimp is a bad deal. Didn?t even taste like shrimp. Crab legs were over cooked, way too soft. Didn?t even crack... when using the crackers. Clam chowder very bland. Was extremely disappointed as the reviews for this were high. I will say thecheese grits were pretty good, as to a 2 rating. Was a birthday dinner for my husband and was very disappointed and we drove 40minutes to get there. Will not return. Read more

Another little hidden gem in Summerfield . From start to finish this meal was outstanding. You?d never know from the outside... what?s inside. Mermaids and under the sea decor and a very friendly staff . I had shrimp my first time with 2sides. Delish !!!!Fresh and tender. Haddock as well. Read more

Good seafood for a decent price. Not too busy when we arrived with our group, and we were seated without having to wait. Staff... was friendly and the food came out quickly. Nice varied menu. Read more

Food and service were excellent! The only issue I have is the waitress does not total the bill. They give you the bill, you go... stand on a line that at times interrupts others that are eating for the cashier to total your bill. Read more
