"Wood paneling lining the walls, crisp white linen tablecloths, formally clad waitstaff, and monogrammed plates bearing perfectly placed steak and seafood: sitting down for a meal at historic spots like Sam's Grill is an experience best described as you know it when you feel it. Sam's, along with local legend Tadich Grill, stands among the oldest restaurants in the countryand there are more than a few places in the city where enjoying a meal feels similarly like stepping into the past."
"Sam's is the third oldest restaurant in the city and the fifth oldest in the country (check out their full history here), opening shortly after the California Gold Rush in 1867. While no one is coming to Northern California to pan for gold anymore, they are still coming for turn-of-the-20th-century dishes at Sam's like stuffed petrale sole Marguery, clams casino, rex sole, and sand dabs."
San Francisco contains multiple historic restaurants where classic interiors and longtime menus evoke the city's past. Sam's Grill features curtained booths, wood-paneled dining, and formally clad waitstaff serving turn-of-the-20th-century dishes such as stuffed petrale sole Marguery, clams casino, rex sole, and sand dabs. Tadich Grill began as an 1849 coffee stand on Long Wharf and remains California's oldest continually run restaurant, known for steak and seafood prepared over charcoal. Many longstanding eateries across downtown, North Beach, Chinatown, and the Outer Mission preserve traditional service and plates, offering meals that feel like stepping back in time.
