I've had very good meals at Farallon, just off Union Square. That might have
been because I always got the same waitress, and her recommendations were
PERFECT. Her name is Gwen, but I don't know if she still works there.

If you're an adventurous eater you might like Incanto. I've been meaning to
try it out for years, but haven't gotten there yet.
