“This review is LONG overdue..Everything on the menu is delish!!! Me & John look forward to coming almost everyday for Tien's AWESOME SALADS!! Everybody here is very attentive & gracious: Tien, Kate, Jenny & "Pom" June & "Grandma" (I know I'm forgetting some names, just know I appreciate you all❤️~) It's truly a place where "everyone knows your name" family-run & very friendly business.“

“We had a delicious breakfast this AM at Sam’s Place Service fantastic.. everything was fresh .. Will be back again for sure !!“

“Legendary Italian. Family Style. Enough said.“

“Only had the poutine, was a bit disappointed that it didn't have actual curds (I'm willing to settle for fresh mozzarella) they used some other kind of cheese as far as i could tell, it turned translucent. Regardless the fries were perfect for how thin they were and skins on, well done! The gravy was also nice and rich, it more than made up for the cheese.

Beer selection was good and the serving portion felt generous. We were also able to get some samples before ordering my second round, which saved us.

We were seated promptly, and our server came by a few minutes later asking what we would be having, she seemed to show a "you're not ready" face when we asked for waters to start. I was literally not halfway through the beer selection at this point. There was this feeling of rushing when being asked how we were doing, maybe this is a Petaluma restaurant thing, or maybe it's just me, not sure.

Regardless the atmosphere was great, good food and drinks.“
