Jan 2024 Update -it's been a minute since we visited Sam's on Main so the wife and I wanted a local meal out so we headed to the Railyard and Sam's. We got there early around 545p and were asked if we wanted to be seated at the kitchen window and we said yes. Soon Kara our sever was asking for drinks and if we had any questions. Before we knew it we had a couple of plates of mediterranean chicken samples from the chef. It was awesome. We both love a good BEET & GOAT CHZ SALAD so we split that and then settle on our main dishes of CHICKEN PARMESAN and GREEK LEMON CHICKEN which were spot on with huge serving sizes and enough leftovers for another meal. As we were wrapping up, another chef surprise was presented that was a complete surprise as we were both full but we also gobbled down the sample of what called a Philadelphia flatbread. Prices are fair, the serving sizes generous and very tasty but what impressed me the most about it amazing camaraderie, professionalism and polite communications in the kitchen. These folks are busting their butts to feed a community and doing in a way that was beyond impressive. Sam has put together a first class team the truly enjoys working together and it shows in product and environment. Well done Sam's on Main, we won't wait so long to rerun next time.

The country fried chicken was great. Thank you Chef Sam for saving the day. Would have given five stars but our server Bailey seemed to forget about us on the patio. Loved sitting outside on the patio. It was a perfect fall day. Indoor dining is plentiful also and the ambience is fun/casual.

Ceaser Salad with Salmon
LaTasha A.

Drinks are EXTREMELY overpriced. The drink was more than the entire meal. The price is not included on the menu. Soup was hot and delicious. Salad was a good size. Excellent size salmon portion. Service was top notch. Absolutely feel ripped off with the drink price.

Came here for brunch after searching on Yelp! Decided to give it a try and the food was great! Those homemade potatoes are to die for! Everything we had was great! Definitely coming back!

AMAZING! The food was so good. You need to come and try it. Five stars, hands down!!!

Everything went great food was unbelievable. You need to come and see for yourself. 5-star food with 5-star service

This area is really nice with different eating areas, shops and activities. Busy place on Sundays. The front entrance is deceptive. It's located on what I would call the side of the building (facing the lawn). The handicap parking entrance brings you in at the bar. Turn right to see hostess. Good old greasy food, friendly service, decent atmosphere. Asked for medium burger, got well done, tators nice & crispy, chicken eggs Benedict dry & or burnt. No Dr. Pepper. Don't forget to head over to Beren's when you're done.

Calamari and gin cocktail

I've been on a few Friday nights and they have a DJ and it's always a good time! Drinks and food are good too. It's hard to find a good vibe in Greyson but Sam's is a good little hidden gem open late.

Knockout Shrimp Hoagie
Mikayla W.

I love Sam's on main, the food is always amazing. My personal favorite is their Knockout Shrimp Hoagie, it's very flavorful and the shrimp is crunchy. One of the chef's gave us a surprise dessert at the end, which was delicious. The servers are great, and I love the ambiance in the place.

There are various fruits and vegetables for sale, soaps, candles, treats, etc. as well! I ordered the vegetarian wrap which was surprisingly way better than I expected! It was also on the cheaper side and came with a side of pickles which I was a fan of. My girlfriend ordered the soup of the day and a sandwich which she also enjoyed. She also ordered a London Fog and we both noted it was delicious and creamy. The staff are so accommodating and kind. They constantly asked us how we were doing and if we needed anything and were happy to tell us more about the place, its history, and their recommendations on the food. Parking is fairly easy, there's plenty of spots in the area you can find. Highly recommend this place for a brunch spot - we'll 100% be back soon.

It's a cute spot but no thank you. Also we were not even greeted by the two staff members who were the only people in the building.

The staff was nice and the establishment was clean. At the time we went it was not a lot of people there but they slowly started coming in. Ordered some wings and fries and a 5 pc tender dinner. They both were good. I did like the fact that they sell whole wings. Even though they were small they were enjoyable. There was a lot of talk about the restaurant across the street (JJ's) I believe that is Fingez new competition. The talk was mostly from an employee, I think he was not happy with them moving over to their location. Maybe at some point I will visit them only because the employee was not happy with them. Based on what he was saying it was like they did not care about the customers and Fingerz does care about their customers. So I guess in time we will see. I think the pricing was the normal charge for meals like that. The chicken tenders were good, not to crunchy, not too much seasonings just right actually. The dipping sauce was ok too. They have lots of choices for the dipping sauces so I did like the choices. Generally speaking the food and service was ok but it is not a place I would run to for a meal. If I am in the area and in the mood for some chicken I might stop by.

Not good. I have been here before a few years back and had some very good burgers. My wife and I…read moresaw they were running a Sunday meal deal where you could get 3 courses for $20. The options looked good salads and deserts and a decent seeming selection of mains. It was a mistake. I had my eyes on the mac bites so I ordered an extra appetizer and they were the best thing about the meal. They are the only reason for the 2nd star. The salads were salads nothing special or bad. The main dishes were where the bad began. My wife got the chop steak (a favorite of hers at home) with mash and broccoli. I got the Shrimp and Grits. The whole theme of the meal was "overcooked." The chop steak was dry and crumbling the sauce was almost sour. The broccoli was covered in clumpy seasoned butter (not bad tasting just poorly prepared) the mash was under seasoned. The Shrimp and Grits was a disaster from the beginning. The dish was served so hot, that the shrimp, no matter how they were cooked before, were over cooked and rubbery by the time the dish was cooled enough to eat. The sauce on top was scalding hot with chunks of undercooked plbell peppers (how they managed that I am nor sure). The grits were way too wet and were flavored only by the sauce. Desert was no exception to the disappointment. My wifes brownie was meh at best, but the creme brulee was a travesty. The sugar crust was way too thick and unevenly torched. I (a guy who loves hard candy and jaw breakers) could not eat the torched sugar because it was harder than rock and again, way too thick. The creme was nice but after having to excavate it from under the polar ice caps of sugar it was not worth it. Service was also not amazing. After a good start ordering and appetizers, the waiter disappeared for a long time. I needed to ask another waiter for some extra napkins and a spoon (grits were too watery) after over 10 minutes with no sign of our original waiter. This would have been somewhat acceptable if they had been busy, but there were less than 5 occupied tables in the building. Over all not a place I'd go back to any time soon. Maybe in a few years more time we'll try again and stick to the burgers.

Very well thought out menu. Great execution. All delicious and fresh. Will go there often.read more

They are just not cooked enough, i popped them in the air fryer but ideally they would just be cooked longer. They give slot though. Turkey burger- it was really what i wanted.

My sides were the lemon potato wedges, cooked just right (not soggy at all) with a lemon flavor that gave them an extra kick.
