I hadn’t been to Sam Bs in quite a while. Decided to meet cousins from out of town there. From the moment I walked in the door, Anne Marie was there! So very helpful with our gluten free needs and suggestions, attentive but just the right amount. The food was excellent! I would definitely go back and definitely recommend it!
