    Veggie skillet
    Kamryn A.

    Visited Sam Hill this weekend for an easy brunch. Service was great and food came out super fast. They have cute outdoor area with games and section for live music. Food was good and cannot complain. Enjoyed the onion dip as an app but thought it would come with veggies and chips-- only came with chips. Skillet was good but had lots and lots of potato's! Wish there were more veggies.

    I was not expecting the outdoor area to be so expansive with room to play games along with outdoor dining. It's the perfect place for groups and families. The drinks are good and the service from the bartenders at the outdoor area was excellent. I recommend getting the steak street tacos from the menu. Now the bad. The chicken caesar salad should have been better quality for the price. Small pieces of chicken and the dressing wasn't great. I didn't see a lot of parmesan cheese. You're paying $20 for a container of lettuce and some chicken with croutons. I didn't finish it. Also, compostable utensils cost $.50. I'm tired of money-making schemes veiled as businesses being environmentally friendly. If you want to save the environment, use reusable utensils, and don't charge your customers for a fork and spoon.

    Fruit cup and farmer's omelette with home fries.
    Ainsley E.

    Been here twice for brunch and have to say the food is pretty mid (except for their home fries, which slap) and priced high considering that and the location. Service also just okay on two occasions. But there's a lot of seating and they seem to have a cool yard and event space. I've ordered: --- Crepe -- it is very large, but nothing to write home about. There is definitely a combo of fresh, frozen, and maybe strawberry jam in there. I didn't detect any other fruit. The marscapone part of the filling was good. Side of scrambled eggs arrived cold. --- Farmer's omelette, home fries, and side of fruit. Servicable farmer's omelette, exactly what you'd expect and nothing more. Fruit cup was fine, I don't think all of it was fresh. Home fries are 10/10 would home fry again. I'll be returning for brunch with friends some more and to try the breakfast burrito which looked good. A friend also ordered a burger that looked incredible; might have to give that a shot.

    This place is a hidden gem, especially in the summer. My only complaint is that they got rid of the garlic dip for the veggie pita plate, which was my absolute favorite. Despite that, I still have to give it a good rating because of the thought and effort they put into the atmosphere. During the summer, there are so many activities, like cornhole, food and drink trucks, games, and more. It's a really cute and fun place to visit, especially for taking people visiting Ann Arbor in the summer. While they got rid of the dip I loved, they added the grilled cheese with pesto, which is great. I've also always had great service here and have never encountered a slow or rude server! Xx

    Crab dip that I will never order again

    Gave this place a second try and glad I did! Came in for lunch with a friend and started with a refreshing glass of white wine. I had the Cobb salad and it was so yummy. Our server was Joe and he was amazing. Such a nice guy and took great care of us. This is our new go to place. It is really comfortable. Great food and service. Why go anywhere else? I may want to try out the entire menu!

    We were excited to try this new restaurant located on the west side of Ann Arbor. Although we were quoted a 45 minute wait time for a table, a table became available after 15 minutes. We requested a booth and were accommodated. The seats look more comfortable than the other seats. The booths were in the bar but we did not mind. The decor is casual with repurposed stadium seats near the entrance. There are also rocking chairs in front of the restaurant, if folks prefer to sit outside. We ordered the mini pasties, crab cakes, and fries for an appetizer. We wanted to try the boudin balls but they were out. The mini pasties were amazing! The outer pastry was the perfect texture and the filling was seasoned well. It was a cross between a Jamaican beef patty and an empanada. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They were also excellent. The crab cakes were okay. Very similar to others I have had. My husband ordered shrimp and grits and found the grits a little lumpy. The seasoning was a bit mild compared to typical shrimp and grits dishes at other places. My daughter ordered a Caesar salad with chicken and my son ate the steak frites which he rated highly. The biscuits were also delicious. They were served with honey and butter. I will definitely order those again. My husband ordered the bourbon cake. It was served with ice cream so we expected the cake to be warm but they serve it cold. I am curious how it would taste warmed up. This is opening weekend, so I'm sure they are still working out the kinks. Nevertheless, I am so excited to have a new restaurant in the neighborhood.

    Damn good fries and classic burger
    Julian C.

    Newly opened, we ended up here on a Saturday night. Staff was very friendly, with no wait at 9:30 pm. Played it safe based on prior reviews and got the tiny pasties, classic burger, fancy side of fries, and an old fashioned. The fries, chips, and old fashioned were fantastic. The burger was terrible - ordered "medium" but arrived as hockey puck - cooked well done. Our waitress offered to put in another one, but we declined. May try again after kinks are ironed out, I felt like I was at the soft opening of Bar Rescue. Get your burger game together Sam Hill!

    We stumbled across this pub on our way to the ice cream place, and we decided to give it a try!…read moreOverall, we were impressed-- super cozy indoor/outdoor space, fast service, and an amazing list of draft beer options! They don't serve any food though, so might not be a good choice if you're hungry. - Dogfish Head Grateful Dead IPA: 10000/10 (an amazing, refreshing IPA that isn't too strong! Medium-bodied, pretty fruit-forward with notes of pineapple and mango. Honestly one of the best IPAs I've had in a whileee) - Kasteel Wit: 9/10 (light-body wheat beer that's also super refreshing and flavorful!) - Hacker Pschor Oktoberfest: 10/10 (great marzen) - Rhineheist Cheetah lager: 8/10 (decent lager) - Guinness: 6/10 (the Guinness was wayyyyy too watery!!!) - Ferndale Project Apple Pie: 9/10 (actually tastes like apple pie and vanilla! It's def on the sweeter side though, so you might not like it if you're not into sweet beer) Overall, I definitely want to come back and sit outside when the weather is nicer!

    This spot is pretty chill! I was thinking it was a beer only watering hole but they actually have…read morean AWESOME selection of bourbon. However, I made a grave mistake of ordering on the QR code/Toast rather than at the bar. I say grave because fellow bourbon whisky enthusiasts will cringe -- I was pretty stoked to see that they had Basil Hayden Toasted. So, I ordered it but also selected "add water" with the anticipation that it would be like a dropper of water. Nope, they made a cocktail out of my 2oz pour of Basil Hayden. Whiskey water. At that point, it could've been Makers Mark or Jack and I wouldn't have known the difference. User error though so I did make sure I still tipped accordingly and NOW I know. I'll be back though.
