Sam’s No 3

This place is my favorite diner! The staff is friendly and the food is delicious with a huge menu to select from. They a super kid friendly and accommodating with carseats. We often go here for dinner with our newborn as we have limited time before she gets fussy and we can always count on the food coming out quickly.

Get anything off of their massive menu then smother it in their incredible green chili. You’ll be just fine.

It was yummy… Was told we would wait 30 – 45 minutes for a table… ended up waiting close to two hours… that’s very annoying. Food was ok, we would eat here again. The mexican is really good… and their homemade chicken noodle and house salad with honey mustard was yummy! Neat little place to stop in.

Was suggested to go to this place by my roommate. the bar was hopping so I decided to sit there. Brenda greeted me and suggested that I order the Rockies burrito. It was amazing. the service from both bartenders Amy and Brenda was amazing. I will definitely return to try more on the menu.

You have no idea how much I love this place. I wish this greatness on every human being on the planet. I’m never disappointed by any item on the menu. I always appreciate the service here and I can’t help but be completely content when I am at any Sam’s No. 3. I’m too excited about every visit and you should be too! #allthegreatness

Great place. Ordered a smaller breakfast «greek» burrito. Asked for Jalapenos to be added. «Fresh or Pickled» responded the server. Every employee was engaged in their work. I even got an Ed Debevick type response when I asked if I could get something to go. «I don’t know. Can You ?». Thanks for the great breakfast on a cold December morning.

Sam’s No.3 has anything that you could ever want to eat, well beyond reason.
We love that there is now another location, in the Glendale area. It’s easier to park here, as there is a small lot next to and around the restaurant, but it does fill up fast, as Sam’s No.3 is just plain good!
We showed up today for Saturday morning breakfast. Luckily seating is open around the bar area. We put our name down on the waiting list, and also watched for two seats to open up, which they did, so we grabbed them.
Service at any of the Sam’s No.3 is excellent, fast, and just plain good. Your coffee cup or glass of pepsi, etc, is always filled, without you really noticing. Your used/​opened sugar packets and creamer containers are whisked away as well.
It’s comfortable, clean, and just inviting! The prices are good, the menu goes on and on and on, which I absolutely love!
You really can’t beat Sam’s No.3. We will be back, no question about it.

Much better experience the second time around. Really nice staff that day and the food came out quickly.
They have delicious adult hot coco drinks. They lady and I both went for omelettes which was a great choice. As for sides I had to go old fashion with the biscuits n’ gravy (brilliant) the lady home fries (not my style but tasty).
After this experience I will come back again.

While their waffle wasn’t your typical large, fluffy Belgian waffle, it was the tastiest breakfast waffle I’ve ever eaten. It’s great to see the full menu available all day, and our waitress came back often for refills and to chat. Everything was made to perfection (including my partner-in-crime’s ridiculously massive burrito) and tasted amazing. It’s great to have another vibrant, local food business to support in Denver. It’s good ol’ diner food, but made by the very best so it’s still a treat.

Great experience… as always!
I’ve tried a few of the other area restaurants for breakfast. Some of them have been pretty good, but it’s hard to beat Sam’s.
Full (& extensive) menu available all day, so I was able to order a blue cheese bacon burger for breakfast with no problem. Staff is always friendly and efficient. No matter which side of the menu that you order from, the food is always top notch.
Our order was a bit slower coming out of the kitchen today than usual. With the volume that they do on Sunday mornings, I guess that is to be expected occasionally.
I may be moving out of the neighborhood soon, but this will always be my «go to» breakfast spot!

They completely forgot about me, so they paid for my whole meal.
I was not a jackass about it. I just happen to come in at shift change, so i can understand the miscommunication. Football was on every screen, so that kept me sedated during the long wait.

Best breakfast place in town. Friendly employees. Great food at a reasonable price. Lisa gas my order down pat! !! Great mimosas! AND THEY GIVE THE BEST MILITARY DISCOUNT THAT I’VE EVER SEEN! !! 33% Off.

It’s gold old diner food and you only miss it if you can’t get it. Since I have been out of the country I had to go back for my last breakfast burrito with extra green chili. I also had a bloody mary which is nice and spicy here!
Nobody makes them like this place. Until my next trip back … So long!

The best thing in journey we call life… is judging a book by its cover, and being wrong. Traversing my way through back lot neighborhoods to find a place to have a breakfast that doesn’t taste of hotel squalor is tough in this town… but I managed to venture out, and found Sam’s No. 3.
I’m a hard sell when it comes to service, in this new day and age… it’s a lost art. As I walked in the busy façade, I found it interesting. And Jared (J-​Bread) made the experience over the top. I wasn’t expecting much from the tatted up server, but I was pleasantly inspired to rethink how these great diners are supposed to be. When I read on the menu the history, it was clear that this place is one of those neighborhood staples.
For that I thank the bar tender at my hotel for the recommendation. If I find myself back in Denver, you’ll find me in the corner booth, in J-Bread’s section, looking forward to some great tasting steak and eggs with a side of pumpkin pancakes.
It not 5 stars because perfection doesn’t exist, but this experience was pretty damn close.

Friendly, fun, yummy diner located right downtown. I stopped in after a long flight and was famished and was pleasantly surprised to see a menu with items ranging from breakfast food, to American, to Greek. I sat down on a swivel bar stool and perused my options while waiters floated by with trays filled with very large portions of food.
I ended up getting a Philly style steak and cheese on a pita. I’m no stranger to a steak and cheese but the pita style was new to me and I didn’t mind it. The steak was also «steak» and not «steakums». Well prepared, served with tater tots, I left sated and happy.
Friendly wait staff and also a few TVs you can watch while waiting.

I am a regular at the downtown location, I live right across from it. You can’t beat a meal for less than $ 10! When I found myself staying around the corner from this one, I was beyond excited! It is evident that this is a newer location than downtown, it is much more modern and (sorry downtown) clean. The staff was typical friendly, hard-​working Sam’s crew, which is a major reason why I am a regular here. Real people serving real food, how do you get any better than that?

@SamsNo3 A Denver favorite, I was eager to try this location on Cherry Street. Opened in 2013, the new restaurant lives up to the Sam standard. Hearty portions. Great service. Wide selection. The Sam standard. Can’t beat it. Can’t rival it. It’s hefty goodly fare.
Be it Curtis Street downtown, or the Aurora location, all Sam’s are so wonderful. The service is always top notch at any location and the old photographs on the walls add to the rich Sam standard history. This new location is no different. The iced tea is great. The International Sausage and eggs are meaty. The biscuits and gravy are so-​so. Add a mimosa if you’d like. You can.
I have been a patron for many years and support this local business. You should as well. You’ll be glad you did.

The service here is good and the food is nothing to complain about. I prefer their dinner menu to the options they have at breakfast (I’m a sucker for chili cheese fries).
Typical diner food and nothin wrong with that!

Great atmosphere and service.
I normally go for breakfast/​brunch as most of their entrees are very large portions.
My favorite dish is the veggie skillet. I sub green chile for the veggie version and then have tater tots (always crispy and delish) and flour tortillas. The skillet comes with two eggs any way you want them, a whole lots of veggies, a boat load of tots and covered with green chile. They bring it with two large flour tortillas and I always have leftovers.
You know it is worth going back to as the parking lot is normally packed. Since it is a horseshoe around the actual building it’s not too hard to find a space.

Great Breakfast Place! I would go back in a heartbeat if I were in the neighborhood. Fabulous service, lots of parking, lots of booths with comfortable seating, and simple tasty breakfast fare for reasonable prices!
The earlybird menu (before 10 am) contains some fabulous deals– like 7.99 for chicken fried steak and eggs– not bad!
Also, gotta love the «High Maintence Gluten-​free, Dairy-​free Breakfast», an actual menu item!
I had the Greek Skillet, gluten-​free with corn tortillas instead of toast. My daughter had the waffles and bananas and they were gone– we both polished off our breakfasts.
Nice!
