Looking for somewhere to eat tonight. Any tips from the Bay Area folks?

Tony gemignanis neapolitan pizza place. Forgot the name
The group I’m with likes basically everything, so I was just wondering what people enjoyed themselves and going from there. Thanks for the responses everyone, so many great looking choices.
@boba @3for3 I’m staying in the lower knob hill/union square area so thanks for the heads up on that front. I drove through Tenderloin and yikes lol. Liholiho is really close actually
A quick google search says it closed 20 years ago. Is there a new one?Stars.
Tony’s is definitely solid pie. Probably the closest I’ve had to New Haven-style apizza outside of CT.Was just there last week and ate at a bunch of good places. My brother lives there so these were all his suggestions.
Depends what you want.
For pizza Tony's Pizza in North Beach was really good. I was surprised how good. Quite a menu of pizzas. They have 4 or 5 different ovens (coal fired, Napoletana, 500 degrees, etc.). Of course we got some from the coal fired menu. It was an hour wait when we went. Expect at least that long. But they will text you 5 minutes before your table is ready so you could walk around and check out the neighborhood. I think Chinatown was pretty close to there also.
Do you like expensive foofy food? Best place we at was Octavia in Pacific Heights. Very good expensive farm to table food.
Ate at a Northern Italian place called Seven Hills in Nob Hill that was also very good. Small, quaint place.
Nothing else to recommend. Good luck getting in anywhere really good on a Thursday night in SF. Way too much money flowing around there so everyone is out to eat at expensive places every night. Even Monday nights were packed. Really enjoyed the city but my brother says it's overrun by rich ostentatious millennials. Not the same city he moved to 18 years ago.
My brother told me to stay away from the Tenderloin at night. Said it's pretty seedy. Is it safe?The Tenderloin is essentially Hamsterdam. It's really quite sad. It was the most prominent issue in last year's mayoral race to succeed the late Ed Lee.

O.K. rich ostentatious millennial.

I will be out there in less than two months. Will check it out. Thanks.I'd lump Za's in Russian Hill into the mix as well. The cornmeal crust is delicious. The pizza here is really fantastic. It has succeeded in turning every east coast skeptic into a believer.
No, that's the one. First fine dining restaurant I've ever been to, celebratory family dinner and it ended with the cops running into the restaurant and my dad almost killing a guy.A quick google search says it closed 20 years ago. Is there a new one?
We ate at a place called Sir and Stars in Point Reyes that was really good. But that's at least an hour from SF.
