San Jose/San Francisco business trip

[cherie]

I will be in San Jose and San Francisco for a short business trip with two others.

In San Jose, I am looking for a nice, solid dinner place on Santana Row or very conveniently located. I was thinking LB Steak or Citrus. Any comments or other suggestions?

In San Francisco, I was initially thinking Perbacco. But Parallel 37 would be most convenient and seems to fit the bill. Any thoughts on Parallel 37?

Thanks in advance.

The chef, Ron Siegel, moved to Michael Mina at the end of September, so any reports on Parallel 37 before that are no longer relevant.
