It is not cheap but for Brits with the exchange rate as it is now, it is very inexpensive. Go for the seafood/fishy options. Seafood risotto is superb.

I could go on and on, but if you appreciate great Italian cooking - GO THERE! It made a great start to our Pacific Coast Hwy trip.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16966 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12210
The food at the Equinox is of very good quality. For starters their crab cakes and their oysters are simply superb. Their filet as a main is tender and it melts in your mouth; their salmon is simply-cooked and yet it has a taste of uniqueness. The desserts come in big portions, or bigger than you’d expect at such a restaurant; and by the time you’ve got to leave you feel just right and not in need of any extra nibbles. Prices are a bit high, but if you’ve got the chance to set some money aside before you leave San Francisco, the place is worth a visit.

If money is an issue, we noticed that some people also go in to have a drink and some dessert rather than a whole meal. The one drawback we thought Equinox has is that the menu is not as extensive as one might like, especially if you’re a vegetarian: you might find there’s nothing for you to choose from.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12210 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10893 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10893 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10141
And I've never paid more than $30 for two people to be stuffed at the end of the meal.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10141 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7754 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7754 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7686 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7686 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7676 As a recovering alcoholic I lived in San Fran for 2 years during the dotcom boom and bust.
I lived just down the road from Delancy Street and spent many happy evenings there.
I loved it!
San Fran is cool too - but expensive...]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7676 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7643 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7643 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7640 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7640 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7634 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7634 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7633 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7633 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4548
I had the 14oz (that’s the smallest they did) sirloin with mash and my boyfriend had the Porterhouse 20oz, which is a speciality - he could only manage half as it literally took up the whole plate. The bar is also lovely to have your coffee or for a pre-dinner drink - they specialise in single malts.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4548
