OK, some more suggestions:

Ferry Building Marketplace - two station ride on the Muni Metro from your hotel. Open early, not a tourist trap as the vendors are local. Try grilled cheese at Cowgirl Creamery Sidekick Cafe (cheese house-made in the Bay Area). Or Mijita, by the chef of the high-ranked Jardine restaurant. Casual Mexican, Oaxacan not Tex-Mex. And arguably the very best ice cream in town at Humphrey Slocombe.

Progress and its sister State Bird Provisions is a solid recommendation. SBP serves small plates in dim sum style with carts bringing food for you to pick from - from quail to seafood to vegetables. Easy Muni access on the 38 Geary crosstown bus.

Liholiho Yacht Club - Asian influenced Hawaiian spot; small and large plates. Downtown.
