San Francisco

Pros: A classic American city. One of the "five greats".
Cons: Challenging for the frugal traveler (except those who read my reviews)

One of these days, San Francisco is going to fall into the Pacific Ocean. One big quake, and POW! History! Gone! Finis! Before the cataclysm hits though, you still have time to get out there and experience it for yourself. Here's my thoughts ...

Pros: Jazz music, Sex, City Lights Bookstore, Sex, Sidewalk Cafes, Sex, Italian Restaurants
Cons: urine-smelling doorways, Chinese dumpsters, occasional vomiting college students in convertibles

She listens to Boy Bands and says she likes them without shame. She measures her action figures for length. She is obsessed with her panties. She is my kind of gal. This review is dedicated to my favorite Epinions pervert, Kristinafh.

I like...

Pros: breathtaking grounds, good albeit expensive store
Cons: broken exhibits, lack of explanatory text, many non-interactive exhibits

I love science museums. I make a concerted effort to visit science museums whenever I travel if at all possible. I've probably been to 60 different science museums in several different countries.

Many folks know of my science background and my...

Pros: peace & quiet
Cons: none!

Located slightly north of San Francisco, just across the Golden Gate Bridge, near Sausalito, is beautiful Muir Woods.

Middle of summer on a weekend: We were running around...

Pros: The sights, culture, weather, things to do, entertainment
Cons: Weather in the morning, city safety shuts down at night

In my mind, San Francisco is the greatest city ever invented, but since I'm young and have yet to travel the world, I really don't know much. But I will say San Francisco is a place where I would eventually like to live. Quite simply, it's the only place ...

Pros: Good transportation system
Cons: cold, windy, dirty, expensive but at least they don't have cows like Ohio

First we must apologize to Stephen_Murray, the week went by so quickly we neglected to contact him for a meeting. Absolutely unforgivable of us, we are truly sorry. Our first impression was that, although we were both from what we considered large ...

Pros: That's silly.
Cons: So is that.

There is a story that says that there is no such thing as the true, objective object. We can easily imagine the idea that the tree I see is just not the same 'thing' as the tree you see. Ask us both about the tree, and I might say it was a darker shade...

Pros: Big portions, low prices
Cons: Less-than-exquisite ambience and presentation

San Francisco has many superb Chinese restaurants, such as Yank Sing, Tong Kiang. It has even more inexpensive Chinese restaurants. Szechuan Taste provides large portions at bargain prices. It is in a neighborhood with fairly ample parking and also at a...

Pros: Beautiful, Wonderful, Interesting City
Cons: Downright Weird Sometimes Cops Like To Give Bad Directions To Stranded Women In Nightgowns

This review is part of the Hard_To_Please Write Off dedicated to helping fellow Epinions member Mark-AKA Hard_To_Please fight cancer. All monies from this review will be given to Mark to help him pay those bills as he fights to survive. Someone...

Pros: some
Cons: some others

If you live in San Francisco, you know that Chronicle columnist Herb Caen was wrong when he coined the term "Bagdad by the Bay" for his adopted hometown. San Francisco is not America's Bagdad; it's America's Metropolitan Disneyland. It's an urban...

Pros: Nice views, great coffee
Cons: It's hard to get a taxi at night

This started, way back in September, as just a review of my most recent favorite local restaurant. But epinions just won't post the restaurant. So I figured, heck, the review already talked about everything else in the neighborhood anyway; I might as...

Pros: A stunning, world-class city
Cons: I had to leave

Review Topic:  Sights & Attractions

Review Topic:  Sights & Attractions I went to San Francisco in June, to be with the most wonderful man I know. I'd never seen San Francisco before.

My sweetheart...

Pros: Breathtaking scenery; historical landmarks; something for absolutely everyone.
Cons: Unpredictable weather; traffic and parking; crowded attractions during tourist season.

During the first week of May, we had occasion to ditch our tiny southern Virginia hometown and travel for nearly a week to San Francisco, California for my sister-in-law's wedding. We'd been dying to visit the west coast since she moved there more than ...

Pros: Adult friendly and amusing
Cons: The "museum" itself is too small

At Good Vibrations, deep in San Francisco's historic Mission District, the lovin' business has come out of the dark.

If you are just visiting San Francisco, or if you're new to town, you have to visit the Mission District anyway. Take a...

Pros: Great views, FRESH FIGS!
Cons: Cold weather, tight parking, RUDE drivers

Do you want to live in, or visit a city where you are ENCOURAGED to run over pedestrians and not make legal left hand turns? Come to this city, you will be in Heaven! San Franciscans LOVE their car horns, especially if you have out of state plates....
