Some great stuff in this thread. I'll be down there in August for the first time, for a wedding in Napa. We're planning on staying in SF on Thursday night, then Napa for two nights, then back in SF on Sunday night.
There have been some good specific hotel recommendations, but I was hoping I could get some advice on which areas to search in Priceline. ![]() I'll be checking betterbidding.com to get recs as well, but I was curious if there are areas to target/avoid since I don't know the Bay area at all. |

Just went to Myth, some restaurant I shouldn't have gone to just because of the name. Food wasn't bad but not as good as I'd expect for $20-30 entrees, appetizers and dessert were mediocre. Would not recommend. Great vibe/scenery though.
About to go to flytrap restaurant near folsom/3rd, hope its as good as citysearch says. Then I'm gonna pick up my new bike at pacific bikes near folsom/4th. booyah. |

Ja,
I actually like Myth quite a bit. I think the food is very good. My only complaint would be that I think their portions are sorta small for the price, but that's pretty standard at that style restaurant. Flytrap is WAY overrated, imo. I don't think it's very good. Mehfil, the Indian place next door, is cheap and very good. Let me know the next time you go to the bike store and we'll have lunch. I work right by there. |

I tried Myth a couple months ago, and I agree with Ja's analysis.
I just had the steak, so its not like I ordered something exotic. |

Whenever I'm in SF I always make sure to stop at Gordo's for a burrito. There are two locations in the city, one is at 9th and Lincoln, the other I'm not sure about. If you guys haven't tried this place I highly recommend it. The Carnitas Burrito is fantastic.

Didn't end up going to Flytrap. Did go to the bike shop though. And the whole foods right there is the best I've ever been to.
FWIW the braised short rib at Myth was awesome. Oysters funky-bad, sweetbread/bacon/quail egg OK. Walu boring (lol, why did my younger brother order this?). "strawberry soup" not actually soup or worth $9. Souffle was pretty good. |

[/ QUOTE ] one's on Geary somewhere between 22-25th ave. and another one's on Clement around the high teens ave. They're not bad, but I think other people already mentioned much better. |

taking my wife for her bday to sf, got lots of great suggestions here, anyone have any last minute suggestions for any particularly romantic things to do or places to get a drink?
my very rough current plan is: - arrive thurs morning, check in, breakfast at one of the places mentioned probably the french bakery - tour anchor steam, lunch at farolito or similar - dinner at slanted door saturday I'm planning for a farmer's market picnic on angel island. friday is pretty open, we've done alcatraz so maybe we'll just explore the city and I'll take her shopping. any last minute suggestions? |
