Customer Testimonials
See what some of the clients we have served say about the experiences with us:

“Selling my stores with Sam Saa was an extremely positive experience and
resulted in both of my restaurants being marketed and sold effectively.”

“Mr. Saa is the best broker I have ever worked with, period. I say this because:
He is knowledgeable; he knows the business, understands how transactions work, and brings his knowledge to assist in making the transaction smooth.
He is honest. He works for the best solution for his client, and in a spirit of trust.
He is hard working. He will do what it takes to make things happen, if it is in his power. He will not let the ball drop on an opportunity.
He listens. He works to understand your business and then he looks for the right solution for you.

"I have worked with him, I respect him, and he is the broker I call first.”
- TJ

“Sam and his team have been helping us in selling and buying restaurants for a few years now, they are extremely honest and trust worthy. They do everything in there control to make or get you the deal that you are looking for. I will and always will recommend Metropolitan Restaurant Brokers for all your buying and selling needs.”
- Christine

“When I first set out on my own I was new to the buying and selling of restaurants, and was very luck to end up meeting Sam Saa . Since Sam was representing the seller at the time, I was blown away by his honesty and fairness with both parties. There are a lot of mistakes you can make in this business and thankfully I have had Sam to help guide me. When you add his expertise, patience and commitment to doing things right, I could not imagine using anyone else. We now have 4 successful locations and I have used Sam successfully for both buying, selling and advisement. You will not meet anyone in the industry with Sam’s integrity, knowledge and general ability to get things done!”
- Larry

“I have known Sam for few years now and worked with him on various engagements in the real estate and restaurant space. His ability to source off market deals as well as engaging both buyers and sellers in a very well structured negotiation process makes a lot of business sense and get deals done. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone who is in the market for real estate acquisitions as well as buying existing businesses specially in the restaurant industry.”
