Sam's Restaurant and Bar

Great beer on draft, friendly and very quick service, and a great/juicy burger! Great portions!

This is a really good restaurant in the Hyatt Regency North. I stay in this hotel every time I come to Houston for work and I've eaten in this restaurant quite a few times. The breakfast buffet is really good and has a good variety of food. On this visit there was always scrambled eggs and biscuits with sausage gravy. There were pancakes one day, breakfast sandwiches another. They always have omelet station and fruit and meat and cheese too. Dinner time offers a good variety. I tried the quesadillas which were really good, the mahi mahi was pretty good too. My favorite thing here is the salmon strawberry salad. Delish! Staff are really friendly.

Woke up bright and early during a convention for some breakfast. Me and my friend waited over 30 minutes for some one to even come by and ask for our drink.Even trying to flag down staff failed.We watched two tables get cleared, cleaned, new groups patrons sit down, get their drinks, get their food before we called it.After getting up to leave we mentioned that we were never even talked to and the older blond employee didn't even know we were sitting down.0 system for managing tables so we walked away hungry and frustrated.

Came here after a day in the airport and on planes so we were looking forward to a good meal. I had the veggie tortellini with cream sauce. Unfortunately the cream sauce actually looked and tasted like a weak cream soup and the pasta tasted like the frozen variety from Costco. My husband had chicken and waffles. The waffle was doughy but the whipped cream was good. I'm not sure what kind of sandwich the one other couple in the restaurant had, but they left behind half of it (perhaps they just weren't hungry). Not a place that we will ever come back.

The bar & restaurant at this hotel is really good. A bit pricey but what hotel restaurant isn't. I ordered 3 double shots off Knobb Creek and fried calamari. The bartender was exceptional!!! Only thing was my peppers did not come with my calamari as stated on the menu.

I feel like I need to leave this review for people like me who are mainly looking for how good the food is and don't mark places down because of perceived bad service However, we sat at the bar and the service was excellent. The portions are huge, and the food is decent. I got the fried chicken salad, and my husband got the chicken sandwich, both were great. Don't discard this place because a few people complained about service. Its not a consistently busy place, when we were there at 3pm only one person was working, which is understandable for a place where there was only one other couple

I've stayed at the Hyatt many times in the past 5 years, and I always enjoy dining at Sam's. I don't doubt that others have had poor experiences, but mine have always been good to excellent. I do normally eat at the bar rather than in the restaurant. The drinks are great and meal service is usually very good. Could I get better food elsewhere? No doubt, but considering the convenience when staying at the Hyatt it is very good and is recommended for anyone staying at the hotel.

Love it!!

Just like a few of the reviews said.. IDK WHAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT! Food is bomb! Service was great. If you're here definitely eat here. Place is awesome.

Don't let a couple of negative reviews put you off. This is a nice place for a drink and a light meal. This isn't a fine dining place but the staff is friendly and attentive, the food selection while limited is sufficient, portions are large. The bar area is open and light, a couple of TVs to provide some entertainment, and not too noisy. The dining room is more like a cave so sit in the bar. We had the South Western salad and the Turkey Croissant, both were tasty and filling. Wine pours were generous.Overall a good experience.
