    Roasted turkey avocado
    Ashley A.

    Tomato soup... I live for it! Sandwiches are absolutely garbage. My roasted turkey bacon avocado was TRASH. One piece of bacon cut in half, THICK butter avocado and BITTER greens. Never again. Their sandwiches are a rip off. Very unhappy customer.

    Just went for a quick breakfast bite before heading into the capital. But I'd just like to mention that this Bethesda location had Lobster rolls as an option! That was quite the welcoming way to wake up and brace to face the morning traffic and bureaucratic filled day. Unfortunately, the lobster didn't really taste fresh, and the service was not the best. Aside from a pleasant run-in with the manager washing our hands, every other worker was either very passive, inattentive, or always rushing. Maybe it's the morning time, or maybe it's just because I've been out of the big city for too long, but none of those should be excuses. I'd also like to mention that the entire layout is not very coordinated to flow customer traffic and table arrangement. It's very hectic, and having to wait for drinks right by the restrooms is not the most pleasant stance.

    Sam B's holds a special place in my heart. As someone who grew up in Bowling Green, it feels like…read moreit's been around forever, and while I know the ownership has changed over the years, the spirit is alive and well. The food is surprisingly dialed in, with high-quality ingredients and deep know-how in the kitchen. Surprising only because the atmosphere and service are a little rough around the edges. Things like chipped plates take a lot away from the otherwise expertly prepared food, and the urgent nature of the service detracts from a proper date night. That said, BG is a college town, and Main Street is the epicenter of drunkenness, so I imagine it would be difficult not to have things set up the way they are -- a place built for the pace of a college town, focused on high-quality but quick meals. And maybe I just need to come back in the summer, when the college kids are gone and the townies take over. But seriously, Sam B's is almost perfect. And somehow that actually does make it perfect, for what it is.

    Went here with our daughter for a BGSU Presidents' Day event. Street parking was easy. We did not…read morehave reservations, in the future I would make them for any event, it is small but cozy. Menu has a lot of options can and vegetarian included. Has seafood which I love. Drinks, we started with a Long Island Iced Tea, it was good. Hubby had something like an Elizabeth Taylor IPA? Not sure if he got the name right but the aroma was lovely and it tasted lovely as well. As far as apps daughter ordered the Brussel sprouts with bacon. She and hubby tore it up. It did come really late, it was served with the meal which I will explain later. But, big hit. We all shared my cup of French onion soup. We all had different takes on it. I would deduct one star but clearly everyone has different likes regarding French onion soup. Don't get me wrong the taste was there, but it was very thick like a stew. The croutons were actually store type croutons so that with the thickness, the croutons were hard. Daughter loved that, I did not. Sooo potato tomato (pronunciation). So if it sounds like thick French onion soup with crusty croutons are your thing, you will love it. Entrees, daughter had the goat cheese raspberry salad, she was very happy with it, looked ver fresh. I had the seafood risotto, I'm always hesitant because you can really mess that up in so many ways. I have had many that had a fishy taste, this certainly did not. The kitchen was out of scallops so it was served with extra shrimp. It was excellent. One does pause before ordering seafood when surrounded by farm fields smack dab in Ohio, but they handled it nicely. Hubby had the salmon pesto risotto, while I did not love it, he did. The Brussel sprouts as I mentioned came out with dinner. The service I will say was slow. Our waiter, Seth, apologized and explained that they were not expecting so many people on a Sun night.I would have deducted a Star for the slow service but I felt that he made it right by apologizing, explaining, and did offer a free dessert, which we did not take. We will return and make reservations next time.
