This is quickly becoming one of my favorite places, from the food to the atmosphere to our service. It's always good. We went there today for a lunch time Devour Indy meal deal. We started with the dueling focaccia. It was outstanding. I hope it is on the regular menu. I had steak New Orleans, very, very good. My daughter had fried grouper fish sandwich. It was a huge portion. Jason, who has been my regular server every time I go is also amazing, top notch, knows what he's doing and is very knowledgeable about the menu. I wish I would have taken pics.

Sahm's Tavern & Sports Bar made for an amazing dining experience. The service here is absolutely outstanding—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The relaxing atmosphere made for the perfect date night, creating a space where we could unwind and enjoy time together. The menu and drink selection offer a great variety. The Hand Cut French Fries were perfection—crispy, flavorful, and impossible to stop eating. My wife ordered the Breaded Pork Tenderloin, a hand-cut Indiana pork tenderloin served with lettuce, tomato, and mayo on a toasted knot bun. She paired it with Breaded Mushrooms and loved both, but especially raved about the mushrooms, calling them the best she’s had in years! Sahm's truly delivers on quality, service, and ambiance. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Loved the large menu & dietary options & labels like vegan. Very family friendly atmosphere & very close community vibe inside. This is close to our house so we’re very excited to come back and try more items! Our favorite thing was the breadsticks with cheese, OH MY SO AMAZING! I’d come just for those! Service was friendly and fast!

We’ve gotten food from Sahm’s Tavern several times and enjoyed the food each time. Tonight was our first time dining in. It was very busy, but the service was excellent. We didn’t wait long for anything. The food was incredible. I had a chicken sandwich, which was perfection, and my husband enjoyed his tenderloin and especially his tater tots. It was a fun vibe, and we will definitely be back!

Jason H. was amazing! We took our students to lunch for our end of year celebration and he was kind, attentive, and went above and beyond for our large group. He even asked if we wante a group picture! We got apps, entrees, and dessert, and everything was a 10/10. We'll be back!

I love this new location! Great place to have a drink and catch a game! Started off with the chicken velvet soup...fantastic! The French Dip is delicious! Wonderful service by Jason...one of the best servers in the city and definitely one of the funniest. Looking forward to being back soon.

My wife and I have been to this location a couple times since it opened. Both times were great. Huge selection of Big Lug beers on draft, plenty of ciders and cocktail options if you want a boozy beverage other than a brew. When you come, be sure to ask to be seated in Jason's section. He's pleasant, funny, and attentive, and he will certainly add to your overall experience.

Absolutely amazing food! I can't say enough good about this place-staff is fabulous, food is fabulous, tons on TVs, a large beer & alcohol selection. Some of the best salad dressing options around & tons of sauces to choose from. The cheese curds are served on some dry lettuce to naturally drain the little bits of grease that clings to keep them from getting logged down by it. I have never had anything that disappointed me. It gets busy & the staff handles it very well. They know the menu, are friendly, & extremely efficient.
