Very Private/Romantic Dining?

I am getting married on a Sunday morning this November, and my fiance and I will be staying overnight in Half Moon Bay before heading to the airport the next morning.

I'm looking for ideas about where we might have dinner that night, really anywhere between Sausalito and Half Moon Bay. I'd love to find someplace where there is either private dining rooms for two, or somewhat private booths/tables. I don't know of anywhere like that, and if no one else does either, just somewhere with a romantic atmosphere would be fine, but any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks!

    Cafe Gibraltar has curtained booths - very Casablanca-ish. Service and food are very good, too. Let them know you're getting married and they'll take care of you.

      It does have curtains? I don't remember them.

      If you are staying in Half Moon Bay then I might recommend Navio at the Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay which does have booths (not sure about curtains). they are sideways to the view out to the Ocean and a step up from the dinning room. Quite nice when we went there.

        hmmm...you're right - maybe not curtains - perhaps drapes just around the back and sides. I just remember trying not to sit on them and pulling them down or off and destroying the booth. I'm clumsy and very good at breaking things. It's still romantic, I think.

      Congratulations in advance! I have a couple suggestions in San Francisco. I've been wanting to go to The Richmond since reading that they have privacy curtains around a lot of tables. The food review was good as well.

      We went to Zuni Cafe on our anniversary and got seated at a small table upstairs with a lot of privacy overlooking the ovens. It was one of the most romantic spots I've been to.
