"Newcomers work really hard to replicate the sort of old-school diner patina and charm that Sam’s No. 3 naturally lives and breathes. That’s because it is an old-school diner, and has been nursing hangovers with its greasy spoon menu for almost 100 years. Everything is bigger at Sam’s, including the 16-page menu, ginormous green-chile drenched breakfast burritos, and the crowds. For the most legit experience, grab a counter stool at the downtown location (there’s a second in Glendale), order a michelada and one of the 20 breakfast burritos, and take in the eclectic scene." - allyson reedy

"A classic diner in the CBD serving hearty comfort-food staples and an intentionally retro, all-day dining experience." - Ruth Tobias
"For a crowd with mixed tastes, there’s nothing better than a classic diner. This one fills the bill with a colossal menu offering everything from all-day breakfast (think pecan waffles, corned beef hash and eggs, and bison skillets) to Greek and Mexican eats (think souvlaki, burritos, and souvlaki-stuffed burritos) to burgers, chili dogs, fish and chips, and so on. Wash it all down with loaded Bloodies or monster milkshakes." - Eater Staff
