  We've been going to this location for years and it never disappoints! Great food, atmosphere and drinks! The buffalo chicken sandwich and deep fried cauliflower are where it's at! (Like two turn tables and a microphone)

  Great food and beer selection. Perfect for a night with the wife or a family meal. The poutine starter is enough to satisfy several people and so tasty. The steaks, seafood and burgers are all great entrees. The must have item for me is the breaded mushrooms. Made from fresh mushrooms (not the frozen garbage most places serve) they have a delightfully light and crispy crunch. A super popular local spot.

  We've enjoyed Sahm's multiple locations for years. For us (vegetarians), highlights are the taco salad, for which we substitute for the meat, and the stir fry. I do have a couple small issues, though, particularly with the Allisonville Road location. [Disclaimer, sort of: I've owned restaurants and prior worked in the restaurant/nightclub industry for years.) My first is that for a salad the size of their large taco salad, a less-than-full little metal cup of dressing is definitely NOT enough...but if you ask for more, they charge you $0.50. Given our average tab with drinks, this feels like nickel and diming. My second is that, in agreement with some other reviewers, we, too, have felt unwanted by some staff members. On more than one occasion, we've been given our tab l-o-n-g before we were finished eating, let alone dessert or after-dinner drinks. On more than one occasion, we've felt as if we were being "cut off," as if we'd had too much to drink (which we definitely did not). When I inquired as to the gluten-free nature of one of the dishes, the server/bartender gal acted as if I'd really overstepped some kind of boundary. My last issue is that there's a female bartender who makes a very weak mixed drink. Now, having worked in liquor profitability control for a nationwide chain, I can tell you that she may think she's saving her boss money, but she's actually costing the boss business. Tip to the bartender: pouring a decent drink doesn't cost; it pays. And it only costs a few extra cents' worth of liquor.
  
  We will still be patrons of Sahm's, but hope that this constructive criticism is taken in the helpful spirit in which it's intended. As multi-business owners, I always appreciate such gentle input from customers and clients.
