BOOK YOUR
$^%#@*! EVENT

We use the term "Event" really loosely around here. Basically, if you can come up with a somewhat legit reason to rally people for food and drinks in SLU, that's good enough for us and we're happy to help you celebrate the momentous occasion.

Sam’s Party Options:

  • Birthdays
  • Teambuilding
  • Bar/Bat Mitzvahs
  • Family Reunion
  • Tea Parties
  • RuPaul's Watch Party

Make a Reservation

We do not take reservations for parties under 10 guests. If you're bringing a group, want to celebrate an event, or are just a diligent planner, book your party of 10 or more now with Resy. Want to make a day of reservation? Please call the restaurant directly at (206) 453-5493.
