New Year's Eve Dinner

[Eddie H.]

I'll be in San Francisco for New Year's, staying in Union Square. I'm looking for a romantic restaurant for New Year's Eve that won't break the bank. I'd prefer something with a la carte options, but anything for less than $125 per person (including wine) would be suitable, prix fixe or a la carte. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Here's the preliminary list from opentable

Next week more places will start adding to that list. Not on the list yet ...

The Oak Room at the St Francis Hotel

At $79 ( which includes a glass of Perrier Jouet champagne) it meets your $ requirements. Can't vouch for the food. I wouldn't call the Oak Room particularily romantic. I've only had buffets there and that was long ago but they were only ok. The chef has probably changed since ... one would hope.

On the list is La Scene. I haven't been there so cant speak to the atomosphere. However here's a bit more than is mentioned on opentable
