Sam's Grill & Seafood Restaurant

Sam's Grill is simultaneously a step back in time and a leap into the future. This historic establishment that is one of the oldest restaurants in San Francisco is a gathering place for "old school" San Francisco sports figures, politicians, and entertainment industry gurus, as well as for hip, up-and-coming celebs, writers, and wannabe politicos. Sam's Grill is not just about the food. It's about the character of the City, the character of its clientele, and certainly the character of its servers! At Sam's, you will find tuxedoed servers gruffly taking orders, and rushing about the restaurant fully focused on doing the job they've been doing for years! These servers have been described as "crusty" and "cantankerous" for decades, but there's no denying that the service is usually spot on. Nonetheless, there is so much more to Sam's than the great seafood and the "crusty waiters". Dining at Sam's is truly a San Francisco experience, whether one chooses to "be seen" in the open dining area, or to be hidden away in one of its historical, curtained booths. Sam's Grill is meant to be appreciated for its well-earned and respected reputation.
