Favored by the beat poets and renowned for its cheap and delicious food, Sam Wo's is a famed local San Francisco haunt. This tiny restaurant where you enter through the kitchen has a charming quaintness. There are 3 floors. First floor for the kitchen, second floor for dining. The third story is supposedly haunted. Sam Wo's is often featured on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.

The atmosphere is so strange, and the rude service so comedic, I can't help but come back here over and over. It's a great initiation for anyone new to the city. Restaurant prudes stay away! Not for the feint of heart. If nothing else, it does feature good, cheap food.
