Fleur de Lys Restaurant
777 Sutter Street
415.673.7779
In the City by the Bay, where nearly every street and vista boasts something sumptuous, it's hard to pin down one particular brick-and-mortar spot to recommend for your out-of-town romantic escapade—but we've done it.
Fleur de Lys, one of the oldest restaurants at the top of all of San Francisco's best restaurant lists, provides a sensuous dining experience that one diner called "a feast for the senses." The restaurant provides separate waiters for every task, from wine to water to food—there's even one for your mid-course beck and call. These little touches make diners feel like royalty, and imbue the experience with a touch of über-sophistication.
Considering San Francisco's infamous damp, cold nights, ask for the private room with the marble fireplace—it truly makes for a plush evening. But don't despair if you don't get it; Fleur de Lys' interior "tented" room provides glamour along with romance. The menu's three- to five-course prix-fixe feasts bring dishes that are so beautiful you may feel guilty cutting into them. Plus, the staff is happy to do the wine/food pairing for each course, allowing you to focus on each other instead of the expansive wine list.
