Going to be near San Francisco in June

[Monster Dave]

Hey guys/gals!

You're crack'n us up with the AZ immigration humor!! Anyway, we're all set to stay with Warren and the blond when we come back through at the end of our trip. But we're staying 1 night next week in San Francisco and were wondering if there are any iconic or unique restaurants that we should check out.

Any ideas?

Sutro's at the cliff house is one of my faves and very iconic. http://www.cliffhouse.com (take the time to watch the intro)

The Tadich grill is also one of my favorites. Also very iconic. Their website isn't much but the food is delicious. http://www.tadichgrill.com

You might also explore North beach for some good Italian food. The stinking rose comes to mind but there are plenty of good resturaunts to choose from. Or if you just want drinks you might try Vesuvios right next to city lights bookstore. 255 Columbus ave @ Jack Kerouac alley  http://www.vesuvio.com
Both the book store and the cafe/bar are once again... very Iconic.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've never been a huge fan of sea food so the Italian places sound particularly appealing! We'll certainly check out your suggestions! Thanks!

It may not be an iconic San Francisco restaurant but one of the best Italian restaurants in North Beach: Franchino, 347 Columbus Avenue, SF. Delicious fresh homemade pasta and an owner who will serenade you with Italian songs.

Really, any place that isn't at a tourist location (i.e. Fisherman's Wharf) is going to have good food. This town doesn't abide bad food 

OpenTable is as good a guide as any, plus you can make reservations.

I need to confirm a time with MonsterDave and Shemonster, but we're planning the 'geist on Friday.  Clear your schedules.

Hey everyone! Thanks so much for those who came out on Friday night. It was really nice to finally put some faces with names!

We'd like to offer a special thanks to Warren and The Blond for hosting us Friday night and for showing us all around the city Saturday morning.

Thanks again! We had a great time!
