Impossibly good combination of hearty yet light salads and wraps with a Mediterranean twist. Try the Greek Yogurt with sour cherry syrup for dessert! This place can get busy but luckily they accept orders ahead of time from their website: souvlasf.com

20th Century Cafe
198 Gough StBeautiful cafe with an early 20th Century vibe.
A great cafe with free wifi and power outlets for those days when you want to work somewhere more lively. They have a beautiful courtyard in the back, and the best breakfast burrito I know of in the city. I also highly recommend their pretzel croissants which arrive daily at 11:30am. Also, check out the great wine store next door.

My favorite view of the city is at the top of this park. While lower than the famous twin peaks, this park is closer to downtown and has a better vantage point for panoramic views of the city and SF Bay. Park on Museum Way and hike up from where Museum Way meets Roosevelt Way.
