Samuel's on the Square

Another great meal at Samuel's. How I wish they did Breakfast too! The Chicken Marsala is out of this world! The Smoked Salmon with added capers is delicious and so fresh. They even have amazing meals for kids, as their Chicken Fingers and Fries can't be beat! We try to eat here at least once a month, as the services is excellent, atmosphere is so relaxing and pair that with the amazing food you can't find better in Waverly, TN for sure. I'm a fan of their music too!

Best place to eat in Waverly in my opinion. Always awesome service as well as awesome food! You can never go wrong with their tater tots either!

Samuel's has the best Prime Rib I've ever tasted. Our steak is always perfectly prepared and delicious. Everything I've tried here has been great. The staff is super friendly and very willing to accommodate your needs and wants. The Chicken Tenders are also the best! I would definitely recommend this restaurant. 2/14/2020. We just enjoyed a Valentine's dinner. The Porterhouse Steak was the most tender steak I've ever had. The flavor was on point! Great service and delicious food!

This restaurant is a little piece of class in the middle of a tiny town. I may be a bit partial because this restaurant is located in my hometown but overall the experience and the atmosphere is everything. Walked in to dine with my grandfather and we were greeted kindly by the person at the hostess stand and brought to our table. The kindness of the staff was amazing and the owners of the restaurant work alongside the staff which I think is fantastic.My grandpa had the salmon and I had a specially made pasta dish with marinara, mozzarella, garlic, and mushrooms. We both felt our food was delicious and well made. We each enjoyed a side salad as well. The atmosphere of this restaurant is absolutely everything. From the historic photos all around the restaurant of Waverly to the spiral staircase and delicately placed lights throughout the restaurant there is so much amazing detail within the restaurant. The high ceilings are breathtaking! If you are local or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping at this fabulous gem in the middle of the court square. The only tricky part is ensuring you come when they are open. Always call to make sure they are open. With Waverly being such a small town, they are open at reasonable times in which they know customers will come in for a meal. Thursday, Friday, & Saturday night for dinner & Sunday for lunch.

We came here for my husband's birthday. I'd say the food was 3.5 stars. Our kids burgers and fries were good, my husbands bbq pork was good (sounded better in the menu description, not among the best), and my chicken Marsala & mashed potatoes was pretty good. My two food complaints are that I wish the honey mustard dipping sauce for the fried green tomatoes didn't taste like just plain yellow mustard - that's the element I liked least about the meal. (Wish they would have added more honey so that it didn't taste like pure yellow mustard, or some sort of more gourmet honey mustard sauce recipe that tasted better), and then the Tuscan bread (which I had read was supposed to be a good choice) actually had a rubbery texture(!) (and they served it with olive oil and fresh pepper - but a drizzle of balsamic in the oil too would've been really nice!). Also I wish they would've done something nice for my husband's birthday like bring him a little slice of dessert or at least a little scoop of ice cream (I did offhandedly mention it was his birthday), but maybe they don't do that sort of thing - a bit disappointing nonetheless when going out to dinner to celebrate a birthday. The waiter and owner seemed very personable and friendly though. There was hardly anyone there when we were eating so it was pretty quiet, but we did go in for dinner right when they opened, so perhaps it gets busier later. The atmosphere was pleasant & classy; although as we were sitting there, we talked privately amongst ourselves and both of us felt that we had a lot of good suggestions for improving the restaurant inside that would draw more people in (we would love to share those with the owner at some point). I want to like this place, but I'm in between 3 & 4 stars, so rounding up. :) Overall, was a nice, casual, pleasant experience.

Great food-great price-great service!Way better than any fast food place in Waverly! Very friendly staff!

The food was amazing! Very well priced! Hubby and I had the steak and shrimp with grilled asparagus, small kids had grilled cheese with fries and older daughter had fried shrimp. We will be coming back this week before we head back north!!! So the owner and staff were super friendly and informative!!!! Hidden gem- don't pass it up

After waiting for a waitress for 15min.....we left! Also notice the price for 12oz Prime Rib went from $33. To $43. In a week. The 16oz is $55. That's if you like your steak well done.

We went there tonight, food was great and we had a great server. Will most definitely go back.

Samuel's on the Square was really good even with a limited temporary menu. Our server, Charlotte, was really good, efficient and friendly. They don't serve alcohol but Charlotte gave me directions to the well-stocked Thrifty Liquor, just 3 blocks away. She brought nice wine glasses to the table while I was picking up a bottle.We shared a calamari appetizer served with Tabasco. I've never had it that way and it was really good. I had the Capon Florentine and liked it very much. My wife had the Fettuccine Alfredo with the house-made sauce and said it was the best she'd ever had; better than any she had at the exclusive Italian restaurants we used to frequent back in Los Angeles.
