Farallon (Seafood)
San Francisco: Union Square

You’ll feel like you’re on the set of The Little Mermaid musical. The décor is themed to the food, so there are faux pearl strands, treasure chests, and jellyfish lamps galore. You might even get to sit in a booth shaped like a shell. Somehow, it’s more fun than tacky. Your mouth will water when you see giant platters of fresh oysters, shrimp, clams, and crab on ice pass by.

Cuisine: Seafood
Price: Entrees are $20-35.
Dress: Business casual and up. Don’t wear jeans, even if they are of the $150 variety.
Noise: The space is fairly big. You won’t have a problem.
Reservations: Highly recommended, and book far in advance. (OpenTable)
Payment: Cash and credit cards.
Parking: Street parking is almost impossible during the day but there are lots of paid lots nearby. The best one is probably the Sutter-Stockton lot. It’s only $5 if you enter after 6PM. Or, valet it if it’s a special occasion.
Date place? Yes, and an expensive one at that!
