Our dish — the plate we'd order here firstHangtown Fry
Hangtown fry, the gold-rush plate: local oysters, fried, then folded with bacon into a cheese omelet. It sits among the house's classic San Francisco dishes, and the tavern next door serves it at breakfast with roasted potatoes.
From Sam's Grill's own menu and pages, as we read them in October 2026.
