18143 Tue Dec 18 18:56:18 -0800 2001 3 1 San Francisco Bay Area 0 56196 As members of the San Francisco Community Music Center Orchestra Chorus (whew!), we're in search of a fine spot for dinner on New Year's Eve before our 8:00 p.m. concert at Mission Presbyterian Church, 23rd & Capp Streets. There'll be from 5-10 of us. What we'd love to be able to do is park near the Church, and then stroll to our dinner site. Closer is better, so that we don't wear ourselves out walking back before the show. I know that there are dozens of eateries in the vicinity, but we're looking for a good place to celebrate on this festive evening. All suggestions are welcome! Thanks.

Since I live on that street I can also recommend that restaurant as well. The food is very good. And it's right near the Church you are singing at.
