On my final full vacation day in Winnipeg in early July, I had a hankering for schnitzel. I have…read morenever had any here. I did a search and Sam's appeared. Sam's has been around for over twenty years. I had never heard about it, likely because I didn't frequent too many eateries on Ness Avenue when I lived in Winnipeg. I had to visit. It was easy to find Sam's. The huge sign helped. It's across the street from a 7-Eleven. This eatery has a drive-thru. I normally like hitting one, but decided to dine in. I backed my car into a parking spot and walked it, passing by a couple of bikers who were about to leave. I was greeted by the nicest man. He said that I could sit anywhere and he'd come over. I sat in a cozy corner. I got a menu. I was happy looking at everything. I got the following items: - Red berry hibiscus lemonade - Chicken schnitzel in hunter-style sauce with spaetzle The hunter-style sauce consisted of mushrooms, onions, and light garlic that are sautéed in a pan with clarified butter and gravy. It sounded perfect. My red berry hibiscus lemonade came out first. It was refreshing and yummy. I don't like lemonade with a ton of sugar. This one was perfect. It had a hint of sweetness. I love hibiscus and lemon together. It was a generous size, too. My chicken schnitzel plate came out next. The schnitzel was delicious. The chicken was juicy with a thin, crispy coating around it. The hunter-style sauce was delicious. I love anything with garlic, mushrooms, and onions. This sauce was divine. I haven't had spaetzle in a while. I was fortunate to have some when I was in Frankfurt nearly a decade ago. This spaetzle reminded me of what I had in Frankfurt. It was yummy and authentic. This place had German chocolate cake, which I love. However, I was too stuffed to get some. Next time! I paid at the counter. I used my credit card and tipped. It was a smooth transaction. I needed to use the washroom. I had to ask the man to unlock the door. It's a single stall for the women's. It was clean. No complaints. This place is a gem. It offers authentic German good eats. I'd return again when I'm back in the city. (333)

The first time I stopped here I tried the not that expensive Borscht Soup. It tasted more like beets the vegetables more than anything else and I enjoyed it thoroughly. It was very filling. The crab meat salad came with lots of fruit pieces on the side which was interesting. The mashed crab meat concoction in the middle was cold like potato salad or coleslaw salad and it was pretty good. I loved the small pieces of crab meat and potatoes! They were tasty. The lemon soufflé was just okay but hard to stop eating. You can't just take one spoon bite, you gotta eat all of that soft fluffy cream because it's delicious and easy to digest. My friend liked his Pecan chocolate pie and he said the chicken soup was okay but I noticed that it didn't have a whole lot of chicken pieces and noodles in it. Service was polite and happy to answer questions. I found the waitress helpful.

I found the battering of the schnitzel to be a tad too doughy for my likely, but it was easy to remove one side of batter and enjoy a slightly lighter meal. It's a cool spot and it was filled with regulars which gives it a homey vibe. They'll accommodate big groups but it's not really the spot for massive group meals. The dining room has a max cap of 48 and tables are set for 4.

The place is a bit higher than a 3 but without 1/4 stars Yelp makes it hard to give more accurate reviews. For dinner ? The Donair ! I haven't had one in years and was super excited about finding it on the menu. It did not disappoint! Nothing beats a good Donair . I would say fresh cut fries should be added to the menu . They make meals that much better. Also one thing I like about dinning in Canada is that so many places have fresh cut fries. All in all a good experience. Lovely staff. Good food. Good beer.

On Tuesday, August 13th, my husband and I and another couple attended your restaurant for a…read morecelebration of three birthdays and anniversaries for both couples. We had tried to bring them to your restaurant before, but couldn't get dinner reservations. We guaranteed them they would love it! After we were seated there was a bit of good natured banter with our server. We placed our orders which included an order of bruschetta which our friend asked to be put on his bill. He said this twice. We were told each meal came with a pasta - some had the entree on top of the pasta (if the sauce suited the meal), some had the pasta on the side (if the tomato sauce on the pasta did not particularly suit the dish.) Three of us had the same meal, which had the pasta on the side. We were brought one small bowl of pasta for the three of us to share. But with no side plate we had to put the pasta with tomato sauce onto the sauce on our plates, which would seem to defeat the purpose of the separate serving. The food was beautifully presented, and was very delicious. We had an enjoyable evening until we were asked about dessert. We asked to see a menu, were told there was nothing printed, and then the young lady (not our original waitress) listed a few, but didn't seem sure, and seemed decidedly distracted. A few minutes later, another different server asked us the same thing; she listed the desserts, never been made eye contact, she was that distracted. We gave her our dessert choices, when all of a sudden there was a flurry of activity. The milk crates that had been marking off the parking spots directly in front of the restaurant were removed, and almost immediately four very expensive cars pulled up. The eight occupants were ushered into the restaurant as if they were royalty, and that is when our table might as well have disappeared! We waiting a very long time for our dessert to be served - slice of cake and a gelato. And we waited and waited. Meanwhile we had not seen our original server again. Finally our dining companion went into the restaurant; when he could not find our original server, and the server who had taken our dessert order was busy with the new, much fawned over customers, as were many other servers, he asked the chef if there were two desserts on order. The chef said something about them being brought out. After a bit more of a wait, the gelato in its Eva's plastic container - not even dished up - and the cake were brought out. It appeared the gelato had been out for some time as it was quite soft. Then came the wait for our bills. When we had waited long enough, my husband went into the restaurant, found our original server and asked her to bring our bills, at which point she asked if she could just split the bill down the middle. At this point I would point out that our friends ordered three glasses of wine (total). My husband and I did not drink. One of them also had a more expensive dinner, and their dessert was more expensive. Plus the bruschetta they had asked to be put on their bill. My husband could see how flustered the staff seemed to be over the new arrivals......or something! He said yes. Apparently my husband is a nicer person than I am. I would not have agreed. Now, the couple we were with have been our friends for over 50 years. We have no problem paying more for them. That is not the issue. We had started the evening assured it would be good, and it was, to a point. And then it went downhill. I don't know who the new customers were, nor do I care, but I'm going to guess there was money involved. (I do know they're inconsiderate, as I heard they were more than an hour late for their reservation, yet still, they were afforded much ado!) Our table spent ~$300 for our evening. Perhaps not a lot for the car drivers, but it is for us. We were celebrating our special occasions, so we splurged. But we did not anticipate being treated so poorly. It really coloured our experience and we will think twice about returning. You can be sure our experience will be shared with friends who come to, or are considering coming to, your restaurant!

The ambiance is really nice inside, it gives out a vibe for date night or something similar. One unique thing that I appreciated here is that most of the pasta dishes come in two sizes.

Very unique dishes, very unique taste, and even for a small two small dishes is more than enough for me. For under $30 this was more than worth it.
