Highly recommend Boulevard (as others have) or Fifth Floor. Both are exceptional restaurants, but reservations for Valentine's Day may be tough at this point. Good luck!

If you're going to fishermans wharf, either eat at Scomer's or Pompei's Grotto. Two of my best friends are fishermen that work out of the wharf, and that's where they eat seafood.

My 2 cents is not to go to fancy restaurant on Valentine's day. Do it a day before or day after.
Typically on Valentine's day, most of the restaurants have mass production fix menu dinner.
They generally are not as good as their regular menu and you have to pay extra just because
is Valentine's day.
So for the past few years , my wife and I have our own Valentine's day on a different night

While I agree with some of the above (hey Ed- Clementine is EXCELLENT) the best meals I have ever had in the city were both at Kokari. It is a Greek/Mediterranean place near the Embarcadero, the decor food and service were impeccable. Best moussaka I have ever had. Bring money, but it is in your price range.
The Wharf is the ultimate tourist trap but then you are a tourist, eh? Cheesecake Factory is fun but its kinda coffee-shoppish. There are some pretty neat places South of Market too, near PacBell Park. Ate last week at "24" which is right in the corner of the stadium but I found Momo's across the street to have better food and way better service.
In any case, ENJOY

Wow, the response by the kind folk on this site never ceases to amaze me.
It would seem that I needed to get started sooner or take Cosmos' suggestion to pick a different day. Of the ones I called, Boulevard, Farallon, Fifth Floor, Clementine, and Equinox were either fully booked or only had tables before 5:30p & after 9:30p.
However, I was able to get reservations at Tommy Toy's. They have a 6 course menu planned and everything sounds great.
Thanks for the recommendations!

It just shows that we don't have lives and live on this board...so maybe these restaurant recommendations should be taken with a grain of salt? (J/K)Thanks for the recommendations!
