    Sandbar is a very nice place but my steak sandwich was difficult to cut, and to chew. My friend’s had cheeseburgers, which they didn’t care for. Maybe we will try again and have something different like a salad.

    Sandbar was tasteful decorated for the holidays. The cocktails are always on point and the food was delicious. The hamburger under the Hand-helds area of the menu was super tasty and the scallops were cooked just right. Don't miss out on the ricotta doughnuts for dessert. Our server took care of everything and was very attentive. Great spot for a quality night out.

    Excellent service very attentive we didn’t feel rushed. Food was good, although would have liked more entree choices. The bill can add up quickly with appetizers in the 20 dollar range
