We should be settled in and ready around 9:45pm and would love to hear some recommendations for a 10pm dinner in walking distance. We'll be staying at the St. Francis. Food wise anything goes, Asian, Italian, Steaks but keeping within a $$ budget would be cool too. Simple sometimes is always the best. Thanks, AFS Wed Aug 06 16:37:30 -0700 2008 20304 afs 1 3936268 Skimming what's available on opentable at this late date, good options include B44, Café Claude, Cortez, Fish & Farm, Scala's. Also Ame and Michael Mina, but those may be over your budget.

Perfect. Sat May 30 12:44:15 -0700 2009 3936268 324318 jabeka 1 3937047 I would go to Scala's... kitchen is open until at least midnight on weekends and the food is very good, the ambience great. Dunno how late Cortez is open, but I hear good things.
