| - Not for folks with dietary concerns. Vegans beware, for sure. And don't bother trying to get something gluten-free. I don't think these folks know what that means, nor do they care. The staff seemed mentally scattered and "out to lunch."
This is a standard, maybe even sub-par greasy spoon for carnivores and folks who want to have some classic, crappy American breakfast food. But to be fair, Sam's never claimed to be anything else. This local mainstay is secure in it's identity, and that's just fine.
I ordered a salad and a side of hashed browns - which were basically the only things I could order off the non-friendly menu. I asked for oil and vinegar for the salad dressing and was disappointed to learn that they only serve Hidden Valley Ranch, which they set on your table in the huge Costco-sized bottle. Again, it's a good thing this joint never claimed to be anything near classy.
The hashed browns were soggy, and I'm afraid to know what food cross-contaminants were migled in there.
My husband had the French toast and my mom had the pancakes, both of which were pretty standard diner fare.
This restaurant is just not for me, but lots of locals like it. If you want supremely informal service and greasy spoon grub, you might give it a shot. But don't get your hopes up for anything special.
