Sam’s Place

Early bird gets the worm! If you can, try to arrive right at opening to snag a seat. The place fills up fast. Honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Highlights for me were the sweet potatoes (still dreaming about them), wings, and shrimp. Can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful bar with both indoor & outdoor seating. Service was quick and the staff really nice. (Especially Ezra!) Prices are a bit high but that’s to be expected of a place like this. The Japanese sweet potato was amazing and I love that they have good non alcoholic options. Good amount of street parking!

So reliably delicious. I don’t drink, so I come for the food — the steak, sweet potato, and wings are my favorites

Excellent, dimly lit atmosphere perfect for a date or a drink out with friends. Very limited menu with a large selection of wines, many naturals to choose from. The staff are very kind people and they’ve done a beautiful job redecorating the space. It’s been a few different cafes over the years, but Sam has earned a lot of popularity and we hope it’s here to stay

Limited wine selection, but what we had hit the mark. About $15/glass. The sesame honey wings were really good & only heard great stuff about rest of menu. Great vibe with eclectic cassette tapes on the stereo and tasteful decor. It was lively in there and not pretentious at all. HLP now has a great little selection for wine you could walk to between Sam’s Place, Holcomb, Byron Blatty & Vinovore. Makes for a great Sunday afternoon.

Obsessed with this new spot. Amazing food with quality ingredients for a super reasonable price. Curated selection of beers and wine that pair perfectly with food. The pickle butter, sweet potatoes and wings were amazingggg. Love the option of indoor or patio too!

Great atmosphere and amazing food! All the plates we ordered were delicious and perfectly cooked. The sweet potato dish was a standout for us due to its unique flavor combo that works too well that we had to order a second plate.

Listen i don’t usually leave reviews like ever so i hate to be that person but I really disliked the service here. I totally get that it’s bar service so no one is gonna really seat you or serve you but you really wouldn’t know that coming in and also, bar service doesn’t mean you don’t smile and acknowledge your customers! I almost felt like they begrudged me being there and when the food came they basically just tossed it on our table with not more than a word. Sure, the food is not terrible but for that price range and service? wild. tbh, I’d recommend putting your money in a mom&pop spot where the people working there do not resent your being there lol and you get at least one hi or smile
