Big:

The Wharf's always good...get a shrimp cocktail (but make sure it's fresh Bay shrimp...if it's not, then get crab) and walk behind the restaurants to where the boats are moored. There should be some old-timers mending crab pots this time of year. There's some pretty fair street musicians at The Cannery, a couple of blocks away. If you're hungry for something more substantial than a cocktail, try the bouillabaisse at Castagnola's, or check out Scoma's...they're both to the west of the main Wharf. You won't be disappointed with either of them.
From the Wharf you can hop on a Cable Car (take the Powell St. car) that'll take you up Columbus Ave. At Union St. (on the left, as you're going away from the Bay) there's a restaurant, called Fior D'Italia, that serves the best pot roast in the City.
If you get off the car at Green St., you can walk a block west to the corner of Stockton and Green, and get the best almond tart or terrone that you've ever had, at a bakery called La Victoria.
Then you can walk south to Broadway, then east a block to Grant, and you're at the northern end of Chinatown. If you're staying around Union Square, just make the walk through Chinatown and you'll end up a block east of the Square (it's about 12 blocks).
