16 Romantic San Francisco Restaurants That Are Perfect for Date Night

"San Franciscans enjoy a bevy of excellent sushi restaurants, but the new iteration of longstanding sushi destination Akikos takes the cake in terms of impressive design. At the center of the room, a chef’s stage lets diners watch as the kitchen team deftly crafts pieces of nigiri made with dry-aged fish often imported from Japan’s famed Toyose Fish Market. The multicourse omakase menu also includes hot dishes such as housemade chawanmushi topped with sea urchin and maitake mushrooms and a baton of grilled milk bread crowned with toro and a glistening quenelle of caviar." - Lauren Saria, Dianne de Guzman
