The sign says Sam’s sports bar now. It’s a small dive bar but the food was absolutely amazing and affordable. I got the prime rib sandwich and I’ve never had one so flavorful and fresh fries with savory au jus sauce. My husband got the southwest burger and it was high quality, flavorful with a bite. Only suggestion is to ask for more house sauce. Thick burger, very crispy and fresh tasting bacon. Would recommend to any one.

Couldn't be more happy with this place! Went to see Smile Empty Soul and was amazed at the friendliness of the staff including the bartender Brian aka Hendo. Drinks were on point and when we ordered food......well that done it!!! Id give this place a 50 star review if I could. Best moz sticks,bbq tenders,and rings I've had in a very long time....if ever!

Stopped by here while driving through the area on a road trip. Food very average, but the prices are very reasonable. Would recommend to those looking for solid food and a decent atmosphere.

Really great reuben sandwich. Onion rings we're worth the upgrade! Definitely seems like a local place though we ordered to-go on our way through back to Ohio when a lot of other places were closed already. I would definitely stop in again.

Paid $20cover at door and then was ignored for nearly 20 minutes once inside. I motioned to blond bartender and someone bussing the tables and got no response. Went to bar to ask for menus, bartender did not have ingredients for an old fashion, did not know how to make a Cosmopolitan,got a real sense of beer or go home. So we left. What a dump.

Solid bar food in old dive bar setting in downtown area-look for on street parking or nearby parking garage. Bathrooms in the basement were a bit creepy. They were clean but my wife thought it was strange that the ladies room stalls had curtains instead of doors. The door to the ladies room was propped open to the hallway- I guess so you don't have to touch it. Inside the ladies room another door was partially open to another dark room -perhaps a cleaning closet. Generally creepy bathroom per the ladies - but it was clean.

Went in for the Game of Thrones themed brunch. Very creative. Was the first brunch I've been to there. All of our food was great. I had steak and eggs and my friends went with the Lazy Dragon (alligator). I didn't get any of the alligator but it looked fantastic. Won't be my last trip to Sam's. Was a little slow getting food and service but overall very good. Gravy was excellent.
