Sammys on the Marina

Sammys on the Marina sits on Holdfast Promenade at Glenelg, on the marina at Adelaide's most popular seaside suburb. A much-loved restaurant with a longstanding reputation, it makes the most of its gorgeous waterfront position — combining quality dining (with a focus on seafood) and good drinks with lovely marina-and-sea views, the kind of polished yet relaxed spot that's become a genuine Glenelg fixture.

The appeal is that combination of quality food, a good drinks offering and a beautiful marina-front setting, ideal for a relaxed lunch, a special dinner or drinks by the water at Glenelg. The waterfront location alone makes it a standout, and with seafood a speciality and a long, well-regarded history, Sammys has clearly won over both locals and visitors.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 2,200 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a sought-after waterfront restaurant fills up over weekends and summer, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly for a table by the water, a group or a special occasion on the Glenelg marina.
