Sam's Chowder House

Sam’s Chowder House in downtown Palo Alto opened in December of 2013, and offers a casual and authentic seafood experience reminiscent of a New England style seafood house. Sam’s eco-friendly menu items include daily fresh fish, live Maine lobster, fresh local crab, clam chowder, Sam’s award-winning Lobster Roll, fish and chips, fried calamari, ahi tuna poke, an Oyster Bar, and more. Simple seafood dishes are prepared with farm fresh, seasonal and local (when possible) ingredients. The charcuterie, including cured salmon, is house-made, along with the dressings, pasta, sauces and desserts.
