Just Okay – It was pretty expensive for the portions they served. We had the ahi poke tacos and potato fries which were really good, but the fish entrees were overpriced for a 5-6 oz portion. Very disappointing that they didnt have any bread to start the meal. Soup and salad were ok. I'd go back for the appetizers only.

Utterly Disappointing! This is the first time I have written a review for anything online but I was compelled after the horrible experience my husband and I had at the "new and improved" Sam's. The food was awful, as was our waiter. First I asked our waiter what vegetarian options I had and he quickly said "none!". I then went through the menu with him and asked specifically about a couple appetizers and salads and he said "oh yeah". I asked if the salad was dinner size and he said "it's a pretty good size" so I ordered the ... read more

HIGH PRICE low quality – My wife and I ate at Sam's last night, because we've read in our local paper how great it was supposed to be. We walked in and the ambience was great. There's a tropical/hawaiian feel to the place. The candle-lit dining room with flowing jungle fountains sets high expectations of a wonderfully rich dining experience. That was as good as it got. I ordered the Salmon dish that cost $18. It was one of the least expensive entres on the menu, which surprised me, because other reviews that I read said that... read more

Delicious Food with an atmosphere for everyone – The character and charm of Sam's invites you into it's space and the delicious food and friendly service should keep you coming back. I had to come back the next week because I couldn't take it all in in one sitting... the food and the space. Sam's is huge! It was a fantastic night out with my family who came to Sam's when it was in it's earlier hay day. (they loved it too.. wished it was a little brighter) I couldn't keep my fork out of their plates... trying things I always ... read more

Long time Institution – I have had the pleasure to dine at Sam's for over 50 years. My parents took me there frequenely in the 50's when we lived in Sunset Beach. I have returned on a regular basis and still find the food and memories wonderful. There seafood has always been prepared properly and the service is very friendly. I highly recommend this establishment to all.
