“ Bar tender/staff had amazing hospitality. Atmosphere is very welcoming! Enjoy the free round of beers everyone! ”
“ DJ/KJJoy is worth coming back for every Wednesday and Thursday. The regular kJ trained her well. With tonight being her first night as KJ, I was pleasantly surprised. I had the best time, especially considering I was going to a bar by myself for the first time in decades.. Karaoke by myself too and I felt awesome. ”
“ Always a fun time at the Sampan, Pinkie is the best DJ. Drinks are always done right, the patrons lively and always positive. The smoking area is ideal for small groups to chat and enjoy yourself.
