Sams Diner Review – Waterford, WI
Sam’s Diner Review – Waterford, WI
There are a few times in my life when I’ve had a plate put in front of me at a restaurant and I’ve sighed and said “this is art.”
When/where this has happened, it’s never been dependent on the price or the number of stars, or some fancy name chef.
It’s about quality ingredients, meticulously prepared, properly plated, and probably a little love thrown in.
Such was the case at Sam’s Diner, a small eatery out in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin. It so exceeded my expectations on every level. It’d decorated with rustic Americana, about a dozen tables and booths.
I ordered the ham steak and eggs and was presented with a thick slab of quality ham prepared just the way I requested. I opted for “American fries” for the potato, thinly sliced crispy rounds, and marble rye toast.
Everything was superb including service and follow up, including getting chatted up by the manager and the chef.
It was about a 40 minute drive for me. Well worth it. I’ll hit it again and explore more of the menu.
You can find the full menu on Zomato. It’s pretty ambitious for a small joint.
Thirty miles Southwest of Milwaukee, eighty miles NNW of Chicago (map below). Opens early, seven days.
