Gothamist describes Sammy's Shrimp Box as accepting weekend reservations, calling that policy "a major perk for groups or impatient eaters" compared to its sibling, Sammy's Fish Box, directly across the street. The article credits the Shrimp Box's coveted sidewalk seating as a draw that adds to demand on busy nights.

Gothamist notes Sammy's Fish Box, which handles comparably high weekend demand, lacks the Shrimp Box's roadside tables, implying overflow pressure across both siblings on weekends. Neither restaurant's exact wait times are detailed in the source.
