In international surveys, Fisherman's Wharf ranks as the number one destination for San Francisco-bound visitors. Just 30 years old, Fisherman's Wharf is home to an eclectic array of interesting attractions, including Ghirardelli Square, novelty museums, and the ever-amusing sea lions lolling about Pier 39. It also offers some of the best views in the city.

A lovely historic landmark, Ghirardelli Square was once the site of the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company headquarters, opened in 1893 by Italian chocolatier Domingo Ghirardelli. Today the picturesque square is home to the popular Ghirardelli cholcolate shop, where visitors line up by the dozens to purchase such delectable treats as milk and dark chocolate bars, peanut butter squares and some of the best hot cocoa in the world. Offering a spectacular view of the San Francisco Bay from an expertly landscaped plaza, Ghirardelli Square is located in the Fisherman's Wharf district, just south of Aquatic Park.
Boulevard
1 Mission Street, San Francisco, CA 94105
Boulevard is one of my long-standing favorite San Francisco restaurants.
Seafood dominates the menu, with a creative flair and a top-tier service experience. The Kuleto-designed interior makes this a very special brasserie.

Michael Mina Restaurant
335 Powell St, San Francisco, CA 94102
Normally, I avoid hotel restaurants, but MM’s (nestled into the elegant lobby of the Sir Francis Drake) is an exception. Creative and adventurous, with a knack for exotic presentation. An excellent business dinner location.

Click here to log in.Had a great meal at Boulevard. Wait staff was terrific. Extensive wine list. Excellent food: Beet & goat cheese ravioli, duck with corn spaetzel. And a good distance away for a brisk walk back to the hotel for dinner.
If you are a runner, From the Palace, head down to Market Street, then Left at the Embarkadero and down toward Fisherman’s Wharf…or Right and down to the Bay Bridge and the baseball park.

When you are done, the waitress adds up the plates and that is how you know how much to pay. John Reilly and I make a trip to Sushi Boat at least once everytime we visit San Francisco, and we have been going for at least 15 years.

Hi Perry,
Great way to use Guidespot!
Here are a few personal recomendations:
1. If you like Sushi, the Sushi Boat Resturant on Geary is fantastic. The Sushi chefs prepare different types of Sushi, put them on plates, and place the plates on little boats that go around the bar. Pull whatever you want off of the boats, eat, and then pull off another. Each plate has a price code.
