Sam Snead's - Fredericton

I went to this restaurant for the first time yesterday. I fully expected an excellent meal as it has a very good reputation and many people I know have been there before and they have always enjoyed their food and experience. I am not a fussy eater and enjoy many different types of food. I ordered the fish tacos-grilled fish. My mother had the fish tacos as well-hers were battered/fried. I got the kale Caesar as a side. The fish was very dry and tasteless, with VERY little cabbage and sauce within the taco. I love fish tacos but this was not edible. The kale salad was-well-kale. They should go back to using Roman lettuce. I sent the tacos back and ordered crab cakes. They were good but I have had better. I think it would have been appropriate for the manager to come out and find out what happened and offer something to compensate. My mother also felt the fish tacos were very disappointing but didn't want to make a fuss. To be clear, I was very respectful and kind to our server who was very nice. I felt very disappointed in my impression of this restaurant and I would probably not go back again.

Absolutely loved this place! The restaurant is located on a golf course, but you don't need to be a member to dine here. Pro tip: Get a seat on the patio area inside, where you can get a beautiful view of the green field with all the comfort and benefits of AC! We enjoyed this place so much that we came here twice. I ordered the oak grilled salmon salad both times, because I enjoyed it so much! The salad size is super generous, with lots of crispy sugared pecans and salty goat cheese. The salmon is likewise massive, and very well grilled! Delicious, and not at all expensive at $17. I asked for dressing on the side, and was thankful I did, as the balsamic reduction is quite sweet and thick. My mother, both times, ordered the Cobb salad. This thing is similarly large, with lots of blue cheese, cheddar cheese, and bacon bits. She really liked the blue cheese dressing, though I found it a tad heavy for my tastes. My dad got the steak flatbread the first time, and the fork cheese sandwich the second. The flatbread was good, though honestly too much (those American portions)! There also wasn't as much steak as I hoped for. The fork cheese sandwich, however, was delightful! Resembling a philly steak sandwich, there were some chunky pieces of steak with lots of melted cheese. His main complaint was that the fries were slightly over fried, making them a little dry. My sister ordered the steak skewers the first time, which came with approximately 8 bite sized chunks of steak. The second time, she got the striploin steak with a side of basil mashed potatoes. She absolutely loved the steak! We also added an order of grilled shrimp skewers, which were charred beautifully and quite flavourful. Too bad this place is located all the way in Fredericton, or we'd frequent it more often!

This place has a nice atmosphere and friendly, if not a bit slow, service. That being said the food is extremely overpriced for the quality and portion size that you receive. The food tastes nice but they don't offer any vegan menu options and will serve you tomato sauce on a plate and charge you for an 18$ curry. The location is great if you're playing golf or out that way already but I would not go out of my way to eat here.

We came here for steak night and was super impressed with the whole atmosphere! The wait was a little long but there were many tables of 8 plus so it's understandable. We had the chicken and goat cheese flat bread to share and would go back just for those!! My husband had the steak which was cooked perfectly and I had the fish tacos which were incredible! Overall a great experience and will be back!

Here tonight for wings and beer with a friend and they are excellent. Best wings in town! Friend had nachos and they were very good. Server was very polite and helpful with menu selections. Have eaten here several times in past years and always impressed! Highly recommended!
