Sam's Bar-B-Que offers a pulled pork plate with coleslaw, garlic bread, and hush puppies, which have been praised for their delicious taste. The restaurant is located in a convenient spot with ample parking. A Franklin (one hundred-dollar bill) was willingly spent by a confident customer who claimed that Sam's has the best BBQ in the bay area. The atmosphere inside is warm and inviting, decorated in a way that makes it feel like stepping into a midwest dimension. The BBQ is fragrant and delicious, and the price of the meal is considered worthwhile. The staff are friendly and provide great customer service, making the experience enjoyable.
The ribs, chili, and coleslaw received mixed reviews, with some finding the ribs overcooked and the chili poorly cooked, while others enjoyed them. The garlic bread received positive feedback, and the BBQ sauce was highlighted as great. Some reviews mentioned that the ribs could be a bit dry, and service might be forgetful at times, such as not bringing utensils or extra items when requested. Despite some criticism, many customers love the place for its authentic Carolina pulled pork barbeque, delicious ribs, and the fresh made daily in-house macaroni, potato salad, and coleslaw, which all add to the great meat. Visitors appreciate the smaller plates, like sandwiches, if they’re not too hungry, and the overall experience remains enjoyable, with many noting that the food never disappoints. The bluegrass music adds to the fun atmosphere, making it a popular spot for those seeking good food and a cozy environment.
