About

Sam’s Grill, the fifth-oldest restaurant in the US, opened in 1867, shortly after the California gold rush. Its first location was in the old California Market, an open-air food emporium located where the Bank of America building stands now. Historian Evelyn Wells described it as “a great bazaar under a single roof, housing fish stands, vegetable and dairy stands, beer counters and restaurants.” Sam’s takes pride in serving exceptionally fresh and local seafood alongside classic San Francisco dishes from the turn of the century. Boasting old-school curtained booths, and superior traditional formal service by waiters in tuxedos, Sam’s has been a San Francisco classic for over 150 years.
