My wife and I had lunch at Sam’s on Tuesday. We chose to share the seafood platter and boy oh boy! What a dish of delights were laid before us; delicious grilled sardines, succulent prawn & calamari tempura, juicy scallops and simple THE best mussels I’ve ever eaten! Service was very friendly and efficient. Oh, and the view… well, ‘Sam’s on the Beach’ says it all.
