BR institution gone. Didn’t realize Donnie Jarreau bought the property. He’s a piece of shite but apparently so is Sammy.

So ridiculous...all of these restaurants used to be slammed to the gills. Then out of nowhere, poor business decisions ruin it all. There's a big financial black hole somewhere in Sammy's life...

No big secret. Owners fuked the only guy holding the empire together and in turn fuked themselves. DJ bought them a little time to right the ship but it was way to far gone. I look for Stabiler to pick it up and give it a go .

Damned shame.

Started going there shortly after it opened (girlfriend [now wife - no pics] lived in Gardere when it was full of LSU students and not a demilitarized zone). Good food, cold beer, reasonable prices. Taught my kids how to peel and eat crawfish there.

RIP

Could see it coming for months. Food got worse, then things stopped being available on the menu, then closed randomly, then employees paychecks being shorted....just unfortunate. Has anyone checked to see how smoke laval is handling the news

Didn't it start going downhill after they took the side of the woman who claimed the judge called her a bad word?

Donnie gets a hard time on this site but he's a good guy.

I initially read this as “Sammy’s grill shutting down for Good Friday” and thought “well shite that’s the worst day of the year for a seafood place to close.”

What are they going to serve? Hot dogs? They couldn’t even produce a menu when they were “open for business”

Just close the doors tonight and be done with it.

I blame the drunken judge or whoever wouldn't give up his seat at the bar
