Sam Vella, a Maltese, decided in 1920 to open this restaurant after working seven years in hotels in San Francisco. At the very beginning it is only a tent on Tiburon Beach where it sells sandwiches. Today, Sam's Café is known to everyone and some of the San-Franciscans are queuing up so that they can enjoy seafood from the day, facing the ocean. The atmosphere is very warm and the seafood, the speciality of the house, are excellent. Moreover, what does not spoil anything, prices are not exorbitant. Fine wine list.

This place is EXCELLENT! The food, the view, the wait staff. It is worth taking the detour to Tiburon. We always go a couple of times if we are in the Bay Area or close. ALWAYS. It is a destination for my husband and I each visit.
Their French onion soup, onion rings, grilled fish, salads, mixed drinks, and they have a nice wine selection. We always eat on the deck as long as the servers are out there. They have propane heaters if you need them, plus a basket of blankets. I wish we lived closer and I would go there weekly.
There are some fun little shops on the same street as Sam's that are fun to peruse before or after, too. It is a great area with a view of the City. Watch the waterfowl swim around, and see the boats on the water - it's a little bit of heaven.
