Sam’s Italian Restaurant of Dobbs Ferry, NY is one of the best-loved restaurants in the Westchester County Rivertowns area. Our food is cooked-to-order and made with the freshest ingredients for an old-fashioned Italian dish you can’t find anywhere else. We've been a neighborhood fixture for over 60 years; we are thrilled to serve customers new and old.
Our commitment to customers during COVID-19:
We'd like to assure our customers that while we have always employed thorough health and cleanliness practices, we have enhanced these measures in all aspects of food preparation, service and delivery. We remain committed to keeping customers and staff safe. We thank patrons for their support and business during this time, and continue to wish health and safety to all.

So in this time of crisis we continued to get takeout from them. The food was delivered hot, delicious (as always) and within a 35 minutes. Of course we went overboard and ending up enjoying the food (broiled scallops, Zuppa Di Pesce, sides of brussel sprouts and broccoli, salads, and of course a pizza (Rustica) for the next day LOL!!) for a few days after.

We love sitting at the bar, especially on Fridays with the live music. The mussels are the best, especially when we ask for them spicy and extra garlic. Great and accommodating staff.

Went with no reservations on a Saturday night and only table was in the bar area so we settled in to a cozy high top. The place is very quaint, older tables and open floor feeling. Angelo waited on us and his gracious knowledge and answers to our Dobbs Ferry questions were comforting as my daughter is considering attending college there. But on to the food! We were served delicious gratis bruschetta bread plus a warm crusty loaf which I love at Italian restaurants. I ordered the clams casino special and we devoured them- so yummy! Next came the complimentary salad with house dressing, perfectly mixed and refreshing! Hubby inhaled his chicken parm dinner while I tried the grilled swordfish which arrived perfectly cooked over a bed of arugula. I splurged on a side of fettuccine Alfredo which arrived al dente as requested, thus will be a definite go to place in our future read less

We've eaten both outside and inside a few times, now that the Covid numbers have improved in Dobbs Ferry so yesterday when it started to rain we were happy to get a reservation. The place was pretty crowded by current standards, almost like the old "pre-pandemic" days! We started with the Caesar salad (not thinking that the dinners usually come with a salad). Generously portioned, fresh and crisp romaine lettuce, flavorful dressing and toasted croutons. For dinner, she ordered grilled pork chops, I, the veal osso bucco special. Both were well prepared and nicely served. The veal, served over rice, with some sliced grilled mushrooms and string beans sautéed with garlic was flavorful and falling off the bone tender. The chops were delicious, served with some apple sauce and steamed string beans. We finished with coffee and a tartufo. I excellent dinner!v we'll be back. read less

Back in those days it cost me $1.50 for all three. Took my first date here. Don't ask. It was a terrific place back then. That was 45+ years ago. The prices may have changed, the food is still superb.

Worth EVERY single cent.
I had the spaghetti and meatballs. Two large and firm (just the way I like 'em) they were tasty and not drowning in sauce. If you like 'em small and the kind that fall apart when you touch them, then these are not for you. The pasta was al dente and the serving size was more than generous.
My wife had the pasta primavera. If we were home she would have licked the plate clean. I encouraged her not to do so here. Cooked but not overly so vegetables with al dente pasta.
Excellent service. There when you needed it, not so when you didn't. Good wine list.
All-in-all winner, winner, good time dinner.
It is a little out-of-my-way for me now. About 80 miles from home to here. But you will see us sooner than later. Maybe that says it all. read less

The back room is always set up nicely and is warm and inviting. You cannot go wrong with the price for all the food you get for an event-- we usually get hot and cold family style antipasto, individual salads, a choice of one of 4 or 5 entrees, assorted desserts family style, coffee/tea, soft drinks AND beer and wine!! How is that not the sweetest deal?!
If I lived locally this would be my go to venue for any and all parties read less
Food was absolutely phenomenal. Hot antipasto pleased all and shrimp cocktail cooked to perfection. My daughter asked for a vegetarian entree and server came back with two choices. Most of our clan ordered the the stuffed fillet of sole which was served two per plate filled with a tasty crab stuffing and delicious lemon butter sauce.
We all enjoyed the chocolate mousse cake and cheesecake. Keep in mind all this excellent quality and service on Mother's Day. I will definitely be back on a regular night for the full menu. read less

I was very pleased with the interior. It had a very upscale vibe even though it was a home-y family restaurant. Him and I had the marguerite pizza and we asked for additional grilled chicken. The servers were very lovely and brought the food out quickly. It was excellent and we had a nice time. My date commented that it was some of the best pizza he's had in NY (which might have been because he was from jersey lol.)
The price wasn't bad at all. We got a regular pie to share and both ended up very full.
My experience was so nice that I took my mom here for lunch a couple weeks later. We both got pasta and I enjoyed that a lot, too.
I highly recommend this place. read less

I was sitting at the bar at Sam’s a few weeks back, contemplating the menu over a glass of Chianti when a customer a few seats down (a regular, I learned later) began extolling the virtues of the restaurant’s calamari Siciliano. He took a sip of his cocktail and asked, “If I order some, will you share it with me?” Who could say no to that? It disappeared, pronto. I offered to buy, or at least split the charge; he declined.
