Very cool place in a very cool neighborhood! Very much a local crowd. Amazing Bloody Mary complete with a slider, olives, cheese and a sausage for garnish. Great happy hour apps available.

Sam’s Tavern tops their Bloody Marys with pickled asparagus, a mini kabob of tomato, cheese, sausage, and lunch, in the form of a slider. Did we mention it's made with bacon-flavored vodka? Read more

Everything on this menu looks so good! Their chili is awesome and you can't beat a burger that is half bacon!

The 50/50 burger is fantastic, though I could do without the fries it comes with. Don't miss the Bloody Mary, either!

All about the $14 Bloody Mary ... Spicy, briny, plus a burger

The nachos are topped with their chili and cotija cheese. Not the daintiest snack, but it's delicious and not covered in plasticy, disgusting cheese.

The 50/50 was named the #1 burger of all new restaurants in the US by Eater.com. Instant cred.

Burgers and bloody mary’s are excellent.

Solid burger and excellent thick steak fries.

Try a whiskey ginger but be sure to ask with ginger beer instead of ginger ale

The nachos are a cut or three above what you're expecting. Try them.

Went full carni on a burger. Do it. Nom nom nom.

Has a small-town tavern vibe, which is unremarkable in the context of Capitol Hill. The food is not a draw.

The best thing about this place is the free Pacman.
