I find myself having to visit Sam's in Kensington for meetings for volunteer orgs. I've never had the chance to try their menus but people in my table don't seem to have any complaints.
Their beers selection and price is average. I've ordered a few pints here and have little to no complaints.
Average pretty much describes the place. It has a sports bar feel but they do have an open mic night on occasion. They do have a nice outside patio where you can watch some interesting people walk by, or stupid people drive against the one way street, impatiently stalking passerby in hopes of landing a parking spot. Park farther and walk FOOS!!
